Sunday Summary: Revive Active

Revive Active review

During the last few months, I've been feeling pretty run down. My body has gone from illness to illness and it's got to the point where I'm constantly tired and craving energy. On Friday I went to the doctors to receive the news that there's a chance I might have Rheumatoid arthritis. I'm being referred to a rheumatologist in the next few weeks to do further testing, so fingers crossed this isn't the case. But at least I feel like I'm finally getting somewhere with these mystery illnesses.

A few weeks ago I was approached by a company about reviewing the Revive Active* health supplement. When I heard that this product could potentially give me a little boost and didn't contain any harmful chemicals, I knew it was worth giving it a go.

Revive active

The Revive Active is made up of 26 active ingredients including: Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, B9, C, E and D3 as well as Magnesium, pomegranate and many more. The health supplement helps support anti-aging, helps heart function and also promotes a healthy immune system. When I was sent this product I was advised to drink it with my regular morning orange juice and I noticed it didn't taste too bad. Most health supplements usually have a powdery, medicinal taste, but this tasted ever so slightly like Lucozade - very citrusy and zesty. Admittedly it did take some getting used to. There's a lot of powder to be mixed in and if you're not careful it's easy to take a big gulp full without realising, however I found it probably the most enjoyable health kick I've used. Did it help my energy levels? Well, I'm not entirely sure. It helped a little bit, but it's probably one of those products that you need to be on a good few weeks to make a real difference or maybe I'm just a bit too ill at the moment to really notice. Nevertheless, it's something I'd consider buying in the future and most importantly, I actually liked the taste of this product so I can see myself sticking to this one.

The Revive Active costs £59.85 for a month supply, equating to £1.99 per day.

Fitness Challenge: Gym Music


If you have recently read my Twitter feed, (@jessycalouise) many of you will know I have recently embarked on a tone up mission for my holiday to Ibiza. As you can see from my pictures, my stomach is a little bit flabby and I unfortunately have stretch marks from when I lost six stone two years ago. I'm determined to get a little bit more in shape to make myself happy at last in a bikini and I finally feel after all those years its within arms reach. All this working out inspired me to write a post about gym music. You can usually spot me at the gym shaking my hips as I'm on the cross trainer and lip syncing my favourite songs to get motivated. I find that certain music makes me work harder. It can be the simple fact that I relate to the song, I want to be like someone in that music video or the rhythm.  So here's my recommendations for every new and old gym bunny out there.

Heavy songs

No-one can ever take away the rock chic side of my personality, it seems evident in most things that I do. My wardrobe is full of fake leather items and I wish I could turn back time and suddenly appear in the 80s. Rock music isn't usually listened to in the gym, but it's got a great heavy beat and can often make you feel really sexy.








Indie/ Pop Rock

I find indie rock music to be great for interval training, where you need to run at different speeds to get your heart pumping. When I listen to bands like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, I imagine running on the beach in California rather than on a treadmill, it's great for escapism.




Pop and Dance Music

Pop and dance music is very popular in the gym, because it evokes a feel good mood. There's always some type of dance music added to my gym playlist as you can never go wrong with it. 




What's your favourite music?
