Tired Of Your Same Old Protein Shake?

What we eat accounts for more than 50% of our success in obtaining and maintaining an attractive physique. Besides cutting back on fats and simple carbohydrates, we need to load up on high quality protein if we wish to build strong, toned muscles. Besides getting protein from our food, most of us often supplement our diet with protein powders due to the convenience it offers, and sometimes - great taste!

However, if you're like me, and sometimes get bored of your ordinary protein shake - I find it refreshing to sometimes chuck the protein powder into a blender and come up with a protein shake that actually tastes and feels like chocolate milkshake.

Here's something to try that's ideal as a mid-day 'snack'. For this example, I'm using chocolate flavoured protein powder:

1. Add a double serving of your protein powder and mix it with a lesser amount of milk in a shaker first (this is so you dont get a sticky mess in your blender)

2. Pour the thick concoction into your blender.

3. Add in about 5 - 8 cubes of ice.

4. Add 1 tbsp peanut butter.

5. BLEND!

6. Pour into glass (you'll need a large one!)

7. With your arm around your pet dog, kick up your legs, relax, and sip away... Absolutely amazing!

Or pet cat I guess... but the effect isnt the same if you have hamsters or pet fish though

Now because you're adding ice and other ingredients, the flavour of your protein shake could be a little 'watered down'. So if your pimped-up protein shake did not taste as good as it's supposed to, or you messed up something while preparing it.
