Summer is coming. It may not feel like it right now (mid 30s), but when it comes, it'll be hot. When you workout you'll be even hotter. You'll sweat, so hydrate even more then... but that's not the point of this post. This post is about an awesome milkshake. You may be thinking: "Aren't milkshakes bad for fitness?" That depends on your milkshake. If you use ice-cream, then yes, it'll be semi-bad for you. If you use this recipe I got online, it won't be unhealthy. First, freeze a banana. Once it's frozen, put 1 to 1-1/2 of milk in your blender, then two scoops of chocolate Whey protein. Blend that for a few seconds, then take your frozen banana and break it up and throw it in. Blenderize that for a few minutes (or until the banana is completely blenderized). You should then have 2-3 chocolate-banana milkshakes!
Now, you may not be a fan of bananas. If so, that's too bad. They're loaded with potassium! Oh, and if you don't add them to the smoothies, it won't be creamy, or as cold. A non-creamy cool (not cold) smoothie is lame.
What if you don't freeze the banana? Well... have you ever drank a warm milkshake? Not very good... and it won't even be creamy! Don't ask me why, but the frozen banana makes it creamy.
These protein shakes (2-3) total at about 400 calories, 60 grams of protein, and about 1000 milligrams of potassium! Not to mention, they taste grand...
