As you probably know, I’m currently in training. And I’ve found myself really, really hungry — again. My life: run, eat, shower, sleep, repeat. I think “eat” can be thrown in there a few more times for a more accurate picture. But eating can be so frustrating when I’m in training. I want to fuel with the best foods possible but I seemingly can’t stay satiated! I don’t want to load up on garbage but what to do? Oh, I’ll tell you what to do…
You smoothie!
Today I’ve rounded up some of the best smoothie recipes within the blogging community. I lovingly call this the “Training Cycle Smoothie Roundup.” Because let’s face it, smoothies can pack a lot of nutritional punch if done right. Next time you I we find ourselves with an insatiable appetite, try one of these amazing smoothies. All of these recipes feature real ingredients — stuff you can pronounce. Plus the ingredients are things you actually want in your training cycle smoothie and diet. Enjoy!
