**The winner of the Pure Bliss Eats giveaway is #40 – Jordan Dunne!  Email me your address, lady!**

How was your weekend??  We caught up on some things around the house and just spent time enjoying meals and laughter together (thus, no blogging from me!).  Today, I’ve got a Superbowl-chili and cookie hangover like nobody’s business!!   I’m hoping that’s the perfect Bootcamp fuel for today’s classes…we’ll see.

We also did a little video shoot – just a normal Saturday morning at the Wright house.  Chobani and exercising.

Recently, we were sent some of the new Chobani Champions flavors to try.  This line of Chobani is marketed toward children, complete with cool 3d “Champ Medals” under the lid and fun flavors.  I’ll be honest – I’ve eaten one per day since we got them.  I put them on the top shelf of the fridge – out of sight, out of mind, Henry and Clara.  Sorry, but I’m not sorry.

The Orange Vanilla flavor tastes like a creamsicle (but healthy for you).  It has actual orange pulp in it!

The Vanilla Chocolate Chunk, complete with little chunks of chocolate swimming around, makes the PERFECT substitute for my nightly ice cream craving!

The stats aren’t too shabby either!  Compared to other children’s yogurts, the Champions line has about 3 times as much protein!  The sugar content is similar to other flavored Greek yogurts.

Let’s just say, I really liked these new little guys.

Oh, and Henry and Clara had some too.

Mostly Clara.

Henry was too busy being awesome.

Observations:

  • Henry really DOES get up that early.  With THAT much energy!
  • Wife beaters look creepy on children.  And really, most everyone else.
  • Henry will NEVER be hired to do commercials – he doesn’t take criticism well.  After the 3rd failed burpee attempt, he stormed off-set and cried to his manager, Clara.
  • THREE Chobani Champions were consumed during filming.  Travis, Henry and I didn’t have any.  Hmm…manager’s fees??

GIVEAWAY TIME!!

Chobani has graciously decided to give THREE lucky readers a case of Champions to try!!

  1. I like to exercise in the morning after a cup of herbal tea -that way I get energy to tackle the day!

  2. Night owl all the way! Nothing like runnning on the rodent wheel aka treadmill at 1 in the AM!

  3. I prefer to exercise around 10 or 11am. However, I have a 9-5 job, so during the week I exercise after work and before dinner.

  4. I prefer the morning because then I know I’m done with it for the day. Plus, it’s a great way to wake up!

  5. I love to exercise in the morning before my college class… It helps to get my brain moving :)

  6. I love to exercise in the morning. I just get it done and over with and continue on with my day.

  7. I like to exercise in the morning after I drop my son at school so I can go right to the gym from there. Thanks for the chance!

  8. during the week i normally am forced to exercise in the evenings because i have early classes every morning :/ But i’m just thankful I have SOME time to work out!

  9. My ideal time of day to exercise is in the morning. It’s such a relief to get it out of the way, so I don’t feel guilty about vegging in front of the TV at night ;-)

  10. My whole life is exercise, so I’m doing it all day…
    This video was redonk cute. I love your kids. PS – I’m eating a blueberry Chobani right now!! hahaha… I wanna win soooooo bad!
    xoxo

  11. I exercise first thing in the morning. With 3 kids I just can’t find the time in the day otherwise. And I don’t want to give up my time with them. So, 5:30am it is! I start my day with greek yogurt and berries! Awesome giveaway & blog!

  12. I love to work out in the mornings, but that rarely works out! The next best option for me is during my lunch break.

  13. I always go on my runs in the morning because I feel like I can’t start my day without a good sweat-session out of the way!

  14. I go immediately after work. I bring my gym bag with me in the morning, so I have no excuse to come home and get sucked into the couch. I don’t always want to go, but with my gym bag in the car I have no excuse. Besides, by the time I’m doing my workout I’m so glad I went!

  15. I sooooo prefer working out before work but that requires me to wake up at 4:30 to get in at least a half hour of running or a workout video. Lately I have been working out in the evening but it sucks. I am so tired when I get home the last thing I want to do after I put the kids to bed is run at 8:30pm. Waaaaa! :)

  16. I like to workout right in the morning so I can get it out of the way and enjoy the rest of my day! Unfortunately I don’t get to do this very often because of school and I don’t want to get up super early. :)

  17. I prefer to exercise in the morning, but my kickboxing classes are at 6pm so that’s when I usually work out.

  18. I LOVED THIS POST! Henry and Clara are so cute! I used to love to get up first thing in the morning and workout, but that has changed. Now, I just workout when I have time, which is usually after work in the afternoons.
    And I LOVE Chobani Champions. I’d been buying them for myself before I finally decided to share them with my 18-month old niece. Now I have to buy 2 packages. 1 for me, 1 for her! :)

  19. I use to workout twice a day – light cardio and stretch in the morning and heavier cardio and/or weights after work. But since having our first child 6 months ago the morning workouts no longer happen. Now everything happens in the evenings which is fine but I find myself really missing the morning hour or workingout and having to myself to wake up and get ready for the day… but I wouldn’t trade it in for our son!

  20. I like to do cardio in morning but when I was more consistent and did some weight training, I preferred afternoons. But I’ve been a weight slacker lately and need to start back on some sort of program.

    Loved the video!

  21. I like to workout first thing in the morning. Not only because I like getting it done and over with for the day, giving me no excuses if something comes up later in the day. Also because I feel I am more conscious of my diet the rest of the day. When I workout first thing, I eat better not wanting to undo any of my hard work in the morning!

    P.S. LOVE the video! Your kids are so adorable!!!

  22. I love to workout first thing in the morning which is what I do during the summer, but during the school year, it’s after school around 4 or 5 o’clock:)

  23. I work out early in the morning before work cause when i get home i want to relax and play with my baby :)

  24. in the morning before my brain even knows what i’m doing! then i don’t have to think about it for the rest of the day.

  25. While I prefer exercising first thing in the morning, I prefer to get to work early and leave early. I usually go around 6:30 pm and I find I have enough energy to power through and don’t feel the pressure of having to get ready for work, so I can take my time doing my routine. On the weekends, I go mid-morning and that is perfect!

  26. Great giveaway! …and even better MOVIE! Your kids are awesome…Clara just eating away, Henry working up a sweat – seriously, too cute you guys! :D

    I like exercising most around 10 am…my body’s warmed up and fueled, I’m awake and usually ready to move by that point. Not so today – my motivation has seriously wandered away. Looking for it now. ;)

  27. I like to work out right after work, before dinner. If my husband and I can make it to the gym together and get our stress from the day out, we always have such a nicer time having dinner together! Unfortunately, I think I’m going to be forced to become a morning exerciser soon….

  28. Hi! :D I like to exercise when it’s the warmest part of the day where I live! That time is usually afternoon, when the temperature is about 35 degrees, then I can be comfortable when I am outside running!

  29. My favorite time to exercise is early morning – it’s hard to get out of bed, but once I do it sets a good tone for my day and keeps me energized!

  30. My favorite time to exercise is early morning – it’s hard to get out of bed, but once I do, it sets a great tone for the rest of the day!

  31. I love getting my workout in the morning, so the rest of the day is energy-filled ;). My kids have been bugging me to buy Chobani Champions, but I’ve put it off since we all like the adult version. This would be great!

  32. Oh to be a kid again! I like exercising in the late morning before lunch. I am finally awake from coffee and ready to eat right after the workout! Too bad I have that thing called a job. BOOO.

  33. I like to work out in the afternoons, right after work, so I don’t create any excuses of why I should stay home and do things (ie. lay on the couch. I have wanted to try the Champions for a while. So excited to have the chance!

  34. That video is adorable! I prefer to work out in the mornings, but with my new job, I’ve been forced into evening workouts (4am is too early for me). They sometimes give me a second wind, so maybe they aren’t terrible!

  35. I love exercising first thing in the morning because it gives me the most energy and is a great way to start the day! I got up at 5 this morning to make it to my gym when it opened at 5:30 just so I could get in my workout for the day!

  36. I like to exercise in the Middle of the Day. I have enough energy to continue through the day. It revs me up.

  37. So excited for the new flavors! I get the champions at Sam’s Club, but they only come in honey-nanna and Wildberry. They’re the perfect size for small snacks!

    I’m definitely a morning exerciser. If I put it off, it simply will not get done.

  38. would love to say i workout in the morning, but no such luc, I am so not a morning person. I do my workouts as soon as i get home from work.
    Chobani Champions love the mixed berry.

  39. I love to work out in the morning. The morning works best for me, because I am not really awake yet and my body doesn’t realize that I am working out. Most of time, I am very energized for the rest of the day.

  40. 5 AM every morning, and then sometimes on my lunch hour and if all else fails at night after the kids are in bed, but very hard to get motivated at that time!

  41. That video is awesome! I’m going to have to agree with the wife beater comment though. They kind of make me cringe. lol. Will definitely be on the look out for that orange creamsicle flavor. I have been eating the vanilla chocolate chunk like crazy! :) So good!

  42. Definitely a morning exerciser. It gives me energy for the day and just makes the day start in a much more positive light. It’s easy for me because I am a morning person naturally.

  43. I like to exercise around 8 am best…but with the running and scheduling with kids a lot of times I have to wait until afternoon. It’s growing on me, though.

    Basically anytime to work fitness in with family. And I know my kiddos both LOVE chobani champions. :)

  44. Oh mygosh – that video is so cute. :)
    I like to exercise in the morning, but I usually don’t have the chance to do it until the evening when the hubby gets home. So I guess my answer is: whenever I have time! :)

  45. SO cute! I’m an afternoon exerciser, but I’m trying to get in the habit of doing my runs (especially long runs) in the mornings.
