Post Exercise Recovery Shake

June 15, 2019

Research shows that eating a 4:1 ratio of carbohydrate-to-protein within 30 minutes after exercise helps athletes store three times as much glycogen as those waiting for two hours to eat.

prep 2 mins

total 2 mins

yield 1 serving

Ingredients

1 frozen banana

heaping 1/2 cup frozen pineapple

heaping 1/2 cup frozen cherries

1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt

1 and 1/4 cups coconut water (I like Zico)

Instructions

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.  If smoothie is too thick, add more coconut water or plain water to reach desired consistency.  Drink immediately.

Notes

As always I recommend using frozen fruit in smoothies for the best taste and consistency.
