BarStarzz with Jonny “The Unit”
Posted by finefitness in Fun Videos, Motivation on May 10, 2012
So sometimes I come across a youtube video that totally excites the SH*T out of me to go out and be active. I’m not even joking, when I say that. I just get a feeling like I must do what I just saw or better myself physically to get closer to it this very second!
In the video below you might laugh because to promote it they have Jonny “The Unit” from The Jersey Shore introducing it. If you are anti-Jersey Shore don’t worry he isn’t in this video for long. If you love Jersey shore you will get a kick out of the first 20 seconds of him talking.
The people “The Unit” is promoting for here are a group named BarStarzz. I highly recommend going to their website and searching some more youtube videos of them. I always think when you see something new and exciting it is a good way to motivate yourself to get active, or if you are already active to push yourself or challenge yourself differently.
I could say it in my own words but the BarStarzz ABOUT section says it best on their website of who they are:
Barstarzz is an international workout team put together to inspire the world to workout. Barstarzz train their bodies through Creative Calisthenics, which is a much different workout than most people are familiar with. We believe Calisthenics is a funner and simpler way to stay in shape, and it gives endless opportunities to expand and be creative to keep pushing the body to its limits.
If you listen to other interviews with them they are telling the world that you don’t need any cash, or fancy supplements to go out and do what their doing. The goal is go out, be active, have fun, and push yourself to the limits.
I was only able to try some of these things for a short period of time at my friends gym and when I tried to take a video my friend’s camera ran out of memory. I will try again in the future and if it looks the slightest bit interesting I’ll post it up here.

Purple Plus Juice
3 plums
1/4 small purple cabbage
1 beetroot (beet)
2 sticks of celery
1 orange
*Not included in the recipe I added a small piece of ginger. I am a big fan of adding ginger to everything!
** Yields 425mL of Juice… See below for how much juice I yielded. VASTLY different.
I grabbed the recipe for my Purple Plus Juice from this website http://recipesgoneraw.com/?p=42
The site said you can substitute the Orange for one Green apple. I forgot to cut the apple in my picture below but I did end up adding it to the final juice.
My ingredients (minus the apple I forgot to cut until after):
My ingredients cut up (minus the apple):
Juice Yield with Apple (Just under 1000mL/ 1L!!!!!!!!!!):
Like I said I am new to juicing but I find every time I make a recipe I am getting double the amount of juice the recipes say they will yield. I am not sure if it is the fact I am using an efficient juicer or what (I use the Super Angel AG 5500)? If any of you are juicing out there let me know!
