Fuel the Difference: Vilgain Double Trouble Protein Bar – Salted Caramel Peanut
This month’s Lift Box dropped a game-changer (sorry, not sorry if you weren’t subscribed). Introducing the Vilgain Double Trouble Protein Bar Salted Caramel Peanut - our most indulgent bar yet, built to win on taste without losing our clean edge.
Rich, buttery caramel. Roasted peanuts. A touch of sea salt. Every bite feels like dessert - but with 16g of high-quality dairy protein to power recovery and performance.
We’ll be real - this isn’t the “purest” Vilgain bar ever. But it’s the perfect balance of taste, macros, and nutrition made only with the additives needed to deliver flavor this good. No artificial sweeteners. No sugar alcohols. Just pure satisfaction that outperforms even the top indulgence bars on the market.

Pumpkin Spice Pancake Protein Bowls
If you’re trying to enjoy holiday flavors but still want to hit your macros, this is a great way to do both. These delicious bowls pack 25g of protein into each one and surprisingly don’t require any protein powder.
FITNESS FACTS
Fitness Fact of the Week — Visceral fat (more specifically abdominal fat) has been linked to having an older biological age. New research shows that people who carry more muscle and less deep abdominal fat tend to have brains that appear biologically younger.
GYM LAUGHS
We all take one ear bud out when walking out of the gym, right?
Tylenol? No, I just need my energy drink.
