Since being healthy and going to the gym is considered “cool” it seems that everyone is looking for the next craze to jump on, lately I’ve noticed that Naked fruit juice drink is that next craze. I personally love the taste of these drinks and the of marketing of the product. Using words like ” Natural”, “Fresh” and even ” healthy”. All of this lead people to pay as much £4 in some shops for this drink. But is it really healthy? Some of the flavours contain as much as 35g of sugar which is the equivalent or if not more than a lot of the obvious unhealthy fizzy drinks such as coca cola and fanta.

Here are some the popular flavours with their sugar contents.

Naked™ Orange Juice: 27 grams
Naked™ Berry Blast: 32 grams
Naked™ Green Machine: 35 grams
Naked™ Mighty Mango: 35 grams

Not even just Naked products are guilty for this. Although the majority of fruit juices are considered healthy, they all have large amounts of compressed fruits into one drink which leads to high sugar contents. If your looking for a healthy fruit juice with less sugar you would be better of buying a basic orange juice or something that only contains a single fruit and of course is fresh.

However, my advice when it comes to what to drink would be WATER. Drinking lots of water a day will lead to a stronger immune system, better skin and also contributes massively to weight loss.

Your core works to stabilize your torso and permit movement throughout your body. Keeping a strong healthy core is vital when it comes to exercise and day to day life.

Your main core muscles:

  • Rectus abdominis
  • Transverse abdmoninis
  • Internal and external obliques
  • Quadratus lumborum (part of your lower back)
  • Multifidus  (muscles in the spine)

These muscles help you not only in the gym but with day to day activities also. Training them is crucial!

5 reasons to train your core

1.) 6 PACK – Your Abdominal muscles make up a huge part of your core and doing exercises like sit ups, leg raises and crunches will help tone your abs and get that famous 6 pack look.

2.) RID YOURSELF OF LOWER BACK PAIN – Doing exercises like back extensions and anything that targets the lower back region will really help you prevent any lower back injuries.

3.) FLEXIBILITY – Exercises that consist of lateral flexion or rotation of your trunk will help keep your core muscles and spine flexible.

4.) POSTURE – So many people suffer from back problems because they spend hours slumped over there desk at work. Strengthening your core will help straighten out your back and ultimately improve posture.

5.) STRENGTH – For the weight lifters out there you will be pleased to know that strengthening your core will massively help with strength based exercises.
