BANG Pre-Workout Master Blaster Lemon Drop Empty Container Review

The very low sugar, yet good tasting Bang energy drinks have become quite popular over the last few years. Many people do not realize that Bang energy drinks are actually pre-workout supplements, though a rather weak one. Enter Master Blaster, a real pre-workout from Bang Energy.

Channel Dad Bryon Lape bought a container of Master Blaster at Jungle Jim’s and tried it for a month. Now that the container is empty, it is time for Bryon Lape to give his full thoughts on how effective it is and its economic value for the customer. Give a full watch, dear viewer, and leave a comment on what you think of Channel Dad Bryon Lape’s supplement review of Bang Energy’s Master Blaster pre-workout, lemon drop flavor.

Is it possible that Master Blaster is the best pre workout 2020? Where do you rank the Bang Master Blaster pre-workout? Best of 2019? Best of 2020? Not in your top 5? What do you think are the best pre-workouts for 2020?

The Bang Energy brand is made by VPX Sports. Channel Dad Bryon Lape has supplement reviews of other VPX Sports products in the Bang! line. Look at the Supplement Reviews Playlist and view them all. Don’t forget to comment on the videos and give a thumbs up.

Jeremy of Geeks + Gamers loves to rant, usually about Star Wars and Lucasfilm. Channel Dad Bryon Lape is a founding member of The Fandom Menace, so why doesn’t he rant more? He personally knows Jeff of World Class Bullshitters and has recorded videos with him. Bryon Lape also knows the other members of the World Class Bullshitters and brought the fans together to create the podcast called The Fan Caste. He is older than Uncle Ethan as well. So why not rant more?

Ranting is negative energy and all it brings is more negativity. Jeremy may grow the Geeks and Gamers channel with his style and that is good for him. Jeff takes a more middle of the road approach with the World Class Bullshitters, but it is his factual toy videos, in particular the Star Wars toys, that has made his channel grow quite well. Channel Dad Bryon Lape takes a more positive approach to his channel and covers items that interest him. This does include Star Wars, the MCU, and other Pop Culture items, but it is not limited to that realm. Bryon Lape is also interested in Fitness, Health, Photography, Computer Generated Images (check out his DAZ Studio attempts….and yes, he is learning Blender), and many other delightful topics. After all, this is Channel Dad Bryon Lape’s Random World of Wonderfulness.

Why the name “Channel Dad”? Why does Bryon Lape use that so much that he renamed his channel to reflect it? That is a most excellent question. When he decided to create a Blue Ocean Strategy for his channel, Bryon Lape decided to connect people and ideas. Though he does interviews from time to time, it is not a main thrust of his channel. Finding people with different ideas and connecting them with others is what he does best. The connecting is a talent Bryon Lape has had for years. When Jeff Hicks of the World Class Bullshitters gave him the title of “Channel Dad,” it was due to him driving the group to various events and connecting them with others.

The Blue Ocean Strategy that Bryon Lape creates gives a more balanced approach to various pop culture events, even as Jeremy of Geeks + Gamers rants. Jeremy’s energy is balanced by Channel Dad’s moderated approach, giving members of the Fandom Menace a scale upon which to measure their own impressions. This is obvious from his Star Wars, DCEU, and MCU videos, so please delight in the other stuff too.

Useless Strength Exercises EVERYONE Does

Not everyone has hours a day to spend in a gym or training. There are many exercises that seem to build strength, but given the amount of time they take and how little strength is actually built, these exercises are a waste of time.

Channel Dad Bryon Lape reads an article from Muscle and Fitness written by Lisa Ann Smith. Some of these exercises have value, but when it comes to building strength, they are better alternatives, making them useless. Other exercises on Lisa Ann’s list of 10 practically useless strength exercises can be quite dangerous or too easy to do wrong. What do you think of the exercises on this list?

Starting Fitness For Men Over 50 – Bodyweight Exercises – Weight Lifting – Cardio

Exercise is a great way to keep your immune system healthy. With various diseases running about, it is a good idea to make sure your lifestyle does not harm your immune system. For men over 50, in particular those who have not kept in good shape for quite some time, knowing what to do for a workout and how often to do it can be very confusing. Most of the men’s health magazines do not help much as they tend to be marketed to men in the 30s. Fear not, help has arrived. From calisthenics and bodyweight leg workouts, fitness over 50 can be straight forward.

Channel Dad Bryon Lape reads an articles from Get Pocket by Abigail Barronian. In her article, she quotes Cross Fit specialists Matt Swift and Matt Owen. Listen and read along to see what to do for getting into the best shape of your life and recharging your immune system.

Being healthy is a topic on everyone’s mind these days. Every person is a bit different and will respond to new stimulus in a unique way. The two Matt’s give a good general recipe, allowing people to find what works for them the best. Don’t be afraid to try new exercises, routines, or ideas.

While many will find it hard to believe, Channel Dad Bryon Lape has read many issues of Muscle and Fitness Magazine. Now over 50, he has to be more careful than ever before and is learning more and more about men’s fitness over 50. Getting injured from lifting too much weight or using horrible form can result in being out for weeks instead of days. Recovery for men over 50 takes more time and exercises should be chosen to take recovery and building into account. Proper nutrition and proper sleep are also very important to help you reach your fitness goals.

With all the Matt’s in this article, one would be forgiven to read Matt Smith over Matt Swift. Though a fan of Doctor Who, Channel Dad Bryon Lape did his best not to confuse the two. While listening to Bryon Lape read, did you hear him say Matt Smith? Bryon Lape has been known to read names incorrectly. Find the MCU cast video and listen to him say Morten Downey, Jr instead of Robert.

One of the ideas in the article is to start with high volume workouts. Depending on the exercise, these may be with low weights or just bodyweight. Think a bodyweight leg workout is easy? Go ahead and try. Doing sets of 50 bodyweight squats will really get the blood pumping. Want more ideas on bodyweight exercises? Take a look at Sydney Cummings’ channel. She has many workouts that are bodyweight and HIIT oriented. Take a look and get some ideas to try. Here’s the link to Sydney Cummings’ channel.

Sitting Too Much – Get Up And Stretch – Reduce Back Pain – Strengthen Your Core

Working from home can be nice, but are you sitting too long? When in the office, you have to walk to meetings. They can be on another floor or perhaps in another building. At home, it is click and go. Time to stretch.

Channel Dad Bryon Lape reads an article by Dana Santas on CNN. She is a certified strength and conditioning specialist, registered yoga teacher, and mind-body coach. Dana Santas also has YouTube channel called MobilityMaker. See the link below.

Get up and do some stretches. Your back and hips will love you for it. Good for your health too. Sitting too much can cause lower back pain and perhaps in an extreme case, restless leg syndrome (ok, not really). Physical therapy is something that can be done at home. Review these health tips from Dana Santas as read by Channel Dad Bryon Lape.

Cellucor C4 Original Review

Looking over the list of supplement reviews Bryon Lape has recorded over the years one will see there are few from Cellucor. The brand is popular, but not usually the best quality or is it? Time for a review?

Channel Dad Bryon Lape does an empty container review for the Cellucor C4 Original formula. This is the one that gets forgotten quite often. It is one of the longest made pre-workouts on the market in the supplement isle and some might argue it was the one that started this whole trend. Did Channel Dad find it to be of any value?

Watch and see.

Balancing Running And Strength Training

Many people think strength training and endurance training are completely different and incompatible, in particular with regard to running. This isn’t true, but a balance between the two types of training need to be balanced. What are the guidelines to determining what to do and when?

Channel Dad Bryon Lape reads an article by Danielle Zickl on the Runner’s World website. She gives some information from a team of doctors lead by Kenji Doma, Ph. D, who reviewed nearly 100 studies to figure out how to balance leg day with running. Use this information as a starting point and adjust based on your fitness goals, nutritional needs, daily schedule, and body recovery ability. Remember everyone is a little different.
