Learn what causes “skinny fatness” and how to fix it.
Read MoreWhether you like your pancakes savory or sweet, you’ll find just the right recipe to rival your favorite restaurant’s – without the downright sinful amount of calories and “unhealthy” ingredients.
For example, try the Lemon Chia Seed Protein Pancakes, which have the bright citrus flavor of fresh lemon zest, chia seeds, and banana, as well as over 30 grams of protein per serving.
Or mix up a batch of amazing Oatmeal Raisin Pancakes, made with oats, almond flour, and brown rice flour. They’re great with maple syrup, or you can make them taste like an iced oatmeal cookie by making a frosting-style topping with milk and whey protein powder.
Enjoy!
On a dreary morning when you can hardly drag yourself out of bed, these lemon pancakes will be like a plate full of sunshine. The bright citrus flavor is a great pick-me-up to enjoy alongside a mug of tea or coffee.
There’s a little prep work required – zesting fresh lemon and separating eggs – but you’ll be enjoying these pancakes in about 15 minutes and will be rewarded with over 30 grams of protein.

Since these yogurt and oat pancakes are thin, you can make a stack of six for a single serving. Then they’re smothered in a banana walnut sauce that’s sweetened with the natural sugars from the fruit.
To nail the chunky monkey flavor, make a walnut butter by blending toasted nuts with oil until it becomes a creamy spread. If you’d rather use what’s in your pantry, peanut butter or almond butter will taste good too.

The soaked pancake batter gets so thick that these take a little longer to cook, so don’t pull them off the griddle too soon. Once finished, each whole-wheat pancake is about 100 calories.

Get the RecipeWhat if I told you that just about everything magazines and trainers “teach” you about dieting is wrong?
What if you could build muscle and lose fat eating “naughty” foods every week?
What if you didn’t have to suffer through low-carb dieting to get lean? In fact, what if you could eat all the carbs you wanted?
And what if you didn’t have to gorge yourself just to gain muscle and didn’t have to put on pounds and pounds of ugly fat, either?
In short, what if I told you that proper dieting--whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth--is much simpler and more enjoyable than you’ve been led to believe?
Imagine eating delicious, filling meals every day...never feeling starved or stuffed...having great energy levels and workouts...and watching your body respond exactly as you desire, dropping fat or adding muscle each and every week.
And imagine finally understanding how proper dieting really works, never again falling for the BS, tricks, and gimmicks pushed by “gurus” and other shysters.
Well, I have good news.
All these “fantasies” can be a reality...if you know how to do a handful of “little” things correctly.
You see, when you know how to diet properly--and this doesn’t mean learning to eat boiled chicken and raw broccoli six times per day--getting lean and muscular becomes simple, convenient, and dare I say...enjoyable.
And this book will show you the way.

Some popular pre-workouts are all-natural. Some contain the right mix of high-quality ingredients. Some provide clinically effective doses. But only Pulse checks each of these boxes.
Pulse doesn’t just “contain natural ingredients''—every ingredient is naturally sourced from plants and animals. Pulse contains no artificial or synthetic substances of any kind.
Every serving of Pulse contains 15.1 grams of active ingredients that have been shown to be safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific research.
Every active ingredient in Pulse is backed by published scientific studies that show benefits in healthy humans.
Pulse contains no harsh stimulants that wind you up and burn you out. Instead, it contains a 1:1 ratio of caffeine and L-theanine, which produces a smooth energy rush and comfortable comedown.
We carefully examined 508 pages of scientific research to find out exactly what should and shouldn’t be in a pre-workout supplement.
Every bottle of Pulse is guaranteed to provide exactly what the label claims and nothing else—no heavy metals, microbes, allergens, or other contaminants.
While these types of chemicals may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of them may indeed be harmful to our health. And that’s why we don’t put any of them into our products.
Before you buy a sports supplement, you should know that it's clean, safe, and transparent. And that's exactly what Labdoor's third-party testing and certification means.
