When you think of building muscle, do you imagine a painfully boring diet? I used to, and I know for a fact most of you do too! Long has a build muscle workout been associated with foods that have the equivalent excitement of watching a 3 toes sloth crawl up a tree..
It doesn't have to be that way! In fact, I've prepared a few surprisingly tasty recipes for you that I think you're going to love! Ok, ok... I admit. They weren't my idea! I swiped them from Vince Delmont's recipe book in his No Nonsense Muscle guide. It's quite phenomenal and I strongly recommend you give it a peek!
Muscle Powder
I'm going to give you a few of the unbelievable recipes right here n this email, but I also recommend you visit the site if you want all of them (And so it's easier to print out)
Protein Fudge Bites
These are awesome post workout teats! Just the punch you need for energy and meeting your protein requirements. Doesn't skimp on flavor either! Believe it or not, I found this recipe on the web years ago. I loved it and just had to share it!
8 scoops chocolate protein powder
1 cup oatmeal (Get the variety you like)
1/4 - 1/3 cup natural peanut butter
3 tbsp honey
1/3 - 1/2 cup milk
3 tbsp crushed peanuts
First mix together the protein, oatmeal, peanut butter, honey and milk. Then roll into small bite size 'chunks' and then roll in the crushed peanuts to finish. These are very portable and can be frozen for later use.
