Pre Workout Nutrition
Best Pre Workout Supplement Drink
By
The
"Muscle Nerd"
Jeff Anderson
To
provide your body with the fuel it needs to power through
your workout, you need nutrients that will support the
complex demands you're about to place on it.
That
means a plentiful source of carbohydrates and protein
that will not only provide a ready source of energy, but
also supply the right amount and type of protein to allow
your muscle cells to begin the "repair and build"
process, forcing them to grow bigger and stronger in the
shortest time possible.
This
Pre-Workout Power Potion Recipe will give
you everything you need to turbo-charge your workouts
while providing a ready source of amino acids to avoid
muscle loss and begin the growth process.
Follow
the directions below and consume this mixture about
1-2 hours before your workout
Ingredient
1: 1.5 cups Skim Milk
Milk
is probably one of the most overlooked supplements there
is! It's loaded with both fast-digesting (whey)
and slow-digesting (casein) proteins for
a steady supply of amino acids...and it's been proven
in research to be a powerful growth hormone releaser!
Ingredient
2: ½ Frozen "Slightly
Green" Banana
Ripe
bananas have more sugar content than bananas that are
still slightly green and will result in more of a quick
"sugar rush" instead of supplying long term
energy to power through your workout. Grab a bunch of
"slightly green" bananas at your local supermarket,
peel them all, and place them in a plastic bag in your
freezer to break up and add to your protein blender drinks
as desired.
Ingredient
3: 2 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
"Natural"
peanut butter (NOT the commercial hydrogenated
garbage!) is loaded with mono-unsaturated fats
perfect
for helping you raise your body's testosterone levels
for increased muscle mass and rapid fat burning. Look
for a product that ONLY lists "Peanuts"
and "Salt" on the list of ingredients.
Ingredient
4: ½ Cup Raw Oat Bran or
Uncooked Oatmeal
Raw
oat bran, like oatmeal, is a complex carbohydrate that
is ideal for supplying tons of sustained energy for your
workouts
AND the rest of the day.
Its
finer texture makes is a better option for blender drinks,
but if you only have access to oatmeal, make sure you
put the dry oatmeal alone in the blender first and give
it a few seconds on "high" to break it up a
bit more.
Ingredient
5: ½ Scoop Vanilla Whey Protein
In
addition to the casein protein from the milk, whey protein
will provide you with additional, ready-to-deliver amino
acids that will provide your muscles with a "jump
start" on the recovery process.
Vanilla
flavored powder seems to go best with this drink but chocolate
flavored is another great option!
Directions:
Ok
this is pretty self-explanatory, but here
goes
Add
the first 4 ingredients in the order listed and blend
on "High" for about 15 seconds. While it's still
blending, open the top and add the protein powder. Blend
for another 5 seconds
stop
drink
wipe
the "smoothie mustache" off your face...and
enjoy your workout!
