I wanna start working out in the mornings and my plan is to have a smoothie about 1 hour before I head off to the gym. What should I put in it that will give me lots of calories? So far I’m thinking something like… spinach, 3 bananas, hemp protein powder, strawberries… My diet is mostly raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. Any other ideas for calories?
I do this,
Yogurt 1/2 cup (plain or Vanilla or whatever I have on hand)
Vanilla 2 tsp.
1/2 a large Banana
3 Pinapple rings from a can
Whey Protein 1 Scoop
1 cup of frozen strawberries.
This can be modified to suit your needs, I sometimes add oranges and blueberries. Also Raspberries are great, Play with various combos and see what you like best!
If you have a vitamix, like I do you can throw in nuts like almonds if you want, It grinds them into nothing. I wouldn’t do this unless you have a utility grade blender.
