I wanted to drop a quick shake recipe on folks. I usually
have this mid-morning after a workout. I try to find a lot of my equipment used
(i.e. Olympic plates) or even make a lot of my own gear (i.e. drag sled, Atlas
stones). Some gear though I purchase, and when I do I purchase quality gear.
One thing that we bit the bullet on was a Vitamix blender. It is a beast, can
pulverize anything that you put in there, and comes with a 7-year warranty!
Back to that shake recipe. It is loaded with great fiber, green leafy
vegetables, protein, antioxidants and some simple carbohydrates. This makes two
servings:
12 oz. 2% Milk (I don’t get much dairy so I use real milk.
Feel free to substitute soy, rice or whatever “milk” floats your boat.)
1 large carrot
2 kale leaves with the stems removed (I find that this
removes some of the bitterness.)
1 frozen banana
3-4 frozen organic strawberries
1 tablespoon of raw organic cacao nibs
1 heaping scoop of Syntha-6 vanilla protein powder
Blend all ingredients to a thick shake consistency. Add water if you
need to thin it out a bit. Enjoy!
The WOD is for the Back! Also, today we get packed up and
drive back across the country to Arizona. That will put me back in my home gym
and I will be able to start up with some great supplemental workouts again. I
would say that the workouts while at home for the holidays have been a real
success and I am feeling strong despite the holiday drinking and eating!
Walked the dog around the block. Ocho cannot wait to get
back to his ten acres in Arizona though!
