After a hard lunchtime workout today in the horrible humidity and heat (but sadly not sun) I knew recovery was keys to not getting struck down by doms tomorrow. So I hatched a plan.
Last year I was doing weights training at 7am then an hour of cardio on a monday morning and needed a second breakfast to help me recover fast before rushing off to labs. Shakes were always my favorite, and the best thing about being at home is the amount of yummy and healthy stuff I can put in them.
Today's shake had an apple juice base, with a load of ice for coolness and to help rehydrate. I like to add peanut butter in for a bit of extra protein as I'm not a convert to protein powders etc.
Recovery shake
1 banana
handful crushed ice
small glass apple juice
1 tbsp natural yoghurt
sprinkle of cinnamon
little bit of syrup
1 tbsp of peanut butter
As with all shakes the process is simple. Put everything together and blend. Then drink immediately.
