So I wanted to share my protein shake recipe with y'all. It is thick and delicious!!!
This makes a blender full and I split it into two servings. One post workout at 5:15am which acts as a meal replacement and the second at 9:30am as a mid morning snack.

1/2 cup Fage total 0 Greek yogurt 10g P/ 0g F/ 4g C/ 4g sugar/ 57cal

I know you are probably thumbing your noses at the addition of the frozen veggies but trust me you do not taste them at all and they are great for you vitamin wise and they keep you full.
Let me know if you like it!!!

Not at all. I do it all the time, but my veggies of choice are frozen spinach and kale(cooked in the pan then I freeze them for later) and for fruit blueberries/bananas. Brussel sprouts are extremely nutritious as well though and was even thinking about doing that when I was grocery shopping the other day. Because otherwise I won't go near those bitches if I'm being honest lol.

The banana helps with the consistency of the shake and keeps the oats from settling at the bottom. Little things I've noticed.

Also, instead of using a lot of protein powder I'll use egg whites. But will use like 1 scoop of protein for the flavoring mostly.



Thanks for posting up! Lots of guys forget how easy this is. Especially when in a hurry before work etc..

Didn't catch that. Personally I'd just quit lifting at that point.

Ehehehheh...Yep... at the gym at 3:30am out by 5am 30 min cardio ED with 1hr weights.
4on 1 off split. Actually the 1 day off I do 45 min cardio and abs just no weight training.
I have to go before work or I just am too lazy. I am a morning person anyways so it works out well for me. Workouts are fasted as well which is something new to me. I started this routine back in October and it has served me well.
Dropped 20lbs of body fat.
Been running T3 for 3 months & been on TRT at 100mg per week for 6years now.
Not sure if the T3 really works or it is just the clean diet and 7 days a week cardio. Dropped my alcohol intake to 1 beer per day. So that has helped as well.
Either way I am pretty happy with switching up to early morning workouts. I rarely miss as opposed to trying to get to the gym after a 8-10hr day plus 1hr traffic each way...totally burnt out and looking for a cold beer not a gym...
I will post some before pics and current pics once I figure out how to block out my face.
