How About That’s trail mix contains 17 grams of fat, 4 grams of protein and 3 grams of net carbs with zero added sugars. Unlike most trail mixes, The sweet variation is tossed with avocado oil and sea salt, making it the cleanest keto trail mix on the market.

The trail mix consists of only 9 ingredients, making it easier for consumers to understand what they are ingesting:

• Pecans
• Walnuts
• No Sugar Added Milk Chocolate Pieces
• Almonds
• Brazil Nuts
• Unsweetened Coconut
• Hazelnuts
• Sea Salt
• Avocado Oil

“We got fed up with these new keto snacks entering the market that had tons of filler ingredients that were questionable,” said Levani, the cofounder of the company. “We wanted to create a snack that people felt good about eating and not having to worry whether it would raise their blood glucose levels or kick them out of ketosis,” he added.

At the moment, the trail mix can only be purchased through the How About That website, http://www.howaboutsnacks.com. The company has plans to enter the retail market as well as being on the Amazon marketplace.

For any questions regarding the company and trail mix, you may contact hello@howaboutsnacks.com.

About How About That! Snack Company

How About That! was born after 3 years of analyzing the keto snack marketplace. 3 years ago, there were very few keto snacks that were readily available to the conscious consumer. Fast forward 3 years, there are now a plethora of products flooding the market, but not all of them are honest about being truly ketogenic friendly. How About That! plans to solve this issue by providing great tasting, clean keto friendly snacks that everyone can enjoy.

NEW YORK (PRWEB)

ProHEALTH Care and Orangetheory Fitness are kicking off the new year with a partnership designed to encourage ProHEALTH employee wellness in the form of free classes at any one of the fitness brand’s 18 studios in Long Island paid for by healthcare system.

Through the partnership, ProHEALTH–the largest independent, physician-run healthcare organization in the nation—aims to improve the health and wellness of the community and its employees with a benefits plan that supports physical health through advice and empowerment.

“Orangetheory Fitness classes are designed to guide and inspire your achievement of a healthier, stronger, more empowered version of yourself,” says Zeyad Baker, MD, President and CEO of ProHEALTH Care. “The classes can be tough for even the most athletic of us and are meant to push your performance, just as we do every day in our offices. But this partnership is twofold for us. This is more than a ‘free fitness class’ benefit; it’s an opportunity to come together as an organization and find common interests, passions, and motivators.”

As an aspect of the partnership, Orangetheory Fitness and ProHEALTH will distribute monthly newsletters to each other’s networks that share a fitness or health tip that will support the overall health and wellness of both communities.

“We are very excited to be working with ProHEALTH and to welcome its employees to the Orangetheory family,” said Nick Galanis, Long Island Area Developer for the fitness franchise. “We’re proud to join forces with a company that’s investing in their team. This partnership is a testament to our shared values, and we’re thrilled to be able to provide this meaningful opportunity to such a deserving group of people.”

Each Orangetheory class consists of a 60-minute, full-body workout that is taught by highly-trained coaches. The program is focused around heart-rate based interval training which helps members elevate their heart rate to the “Orange Zone,” which is 84-91 percent of their maximum heart rate.

ProHEALTH Care provides a full range of modern health care services for patients of all ages at locations across New York. Offering primary, specialty and urgent care, ProHEALTH’s team of board certified doctors and highly trained clinicians continuously strive to provide patients with the care they need to live their healthiest lives.

The Heller School for Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University released the Child Opportunity Index 2.0. With this new release they identified success stories of communities spurred to action by the release of the Child Opportunity Index 1.0 in 2015. The City of Albany is one of these.

The 2015 release found that Albany was the lowest ranked of 100 major cities in the US in terms of opportunity for healthy development of Hispanic and black children. Mayor Kathy Sheehan partnered with Jonathan Jones, Commissioner of Recreation, Youth & Workforce on how to fix this deficit. They decided to solve this by refurbishing parks and adding play and fitness equipment throughout the city.

“We’ve redone 13 parks and many have intergenerational features, like fitness equipment to help the whole family. Each new park has ADA compliant equipment, so all of our residents could play,” says Jones. “Albany is a neighborhood city, and the parks connect the neighborhoods.”

Albany partnered with KOMPAN to build unique playgrounds reflecting each set of surroundings and geography in the 13 playgrounds and fitness areas constructed so far.

“Not only is [each park] a place for our young people to meet friends, create networks, there are a lot of apparatus’ here that are going to challenge them not only physically but mentally,” added Jones.

With the release of the recent update to the Child Opportunity Index, the value of the addition of these playgrounds has been proven. The City of Albany has risen on list over the course of 5 years, and looks forward to more progress.

Many people find it difficult to get motivated to exercise and, even once they’re ready to go, they might not know exactly what to do. This is a role that modern fitness technology often tries to play.

For example, the popular Peloton indoor exercise cycle provides access to on-demand classes, live-streaming, and real-time data. Another such product, the Mirror Home Gym, streams live and on-demand workout classes onto an LCD mirror. Users not only use the product to access classes, but they can also connect it to a Bluetooth heart rate monitor to track their heart rate during their workouts and keep track of how many calories they’ve burned. Many wearable fitness trackers (such as the Fitbit, Apple Watch, or Galaxy Watch Active) provide similar health data.

Much of the information these devices deliver can be useful. For instance, step counts provided by most fitness trackers can give you a snapshot of your activity level and potentially motivate you to be more active. Monitoring your heart rate and other vital signs could let you know how hard your body is working while you exercise. Having access to routines, workouts and digital “coaches” can give you training tips and information on which workouts to try. All of these details can be useful and lead to increased health.

However, it’s important to remember that there is no “magic answer” that will allow you to get in shape without putting in time and effort. While technology like fitness trackers can help in many ways, they aren’t a shortcut or an easy answer.

“Motivation with a smile is what our in-home personal trainers deliver to hundreds of customers daily across Canada,” says Beth Spooner, president of Fitness on the Go. “Technology is fantastic and certainly makes things easier. Unfortunately when it comes to fitness, you still have to put in the work to get real long-lasting results. We understand that fitness may not be as enjoyable as watching Netflix, so our personal trainers bring the motivation needed to keep our clients on track and the enthusiasm to help enjoy the session.” It seems that we need a technology that drives our intrinsic motivation to be more successful in fitness, until then, hiring extrinsic motivation remains the antidote.

The reality is that exercise requires hard work and dedication. Technology can try to help you stay motivated by giving you routines and fitness data, but it can’t force you to exercise or get you in shape without you putting in the effort. You’ll still need to find the motivation to start and keep going. While technological equipment, tools, and trackers can be helpful, they’re not the only way to get in shape and they’re certainly not a replacement for hard work and effort.
