Smoothies have been a popular recommendation to many athletes lately for a few reasons:
•Fast Fuel option (to make and drink) - before or after training
•Easy to pack in nutrients and energy to meet needs
•On the go option - so you’re not missing out on fuelling when you’re short on time
What’s your favourite combo? Here’s one of my go-tos below 👇

½ - 1 medium banana
⅓ cup mixed frozen berries
½ - 1 cup milk (I suggest cow’s or soy milk)
10-20g protein powder (WPI or
pea - raw or vanilla flavour suggested)
Optional 1/4 cup rolled oats
1 tsp chia seeds
Optional 1 tablespoon chocolate Sustagen or Milo
or cacao
Handful of Ice cubes
