Building the Bat

Cookie dough, but high in protein and fully . For this recipe I mixed together:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp truvia
- 2 scoops of chocolate magic
- 1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- dash of cinnamon
- dash of vanilla extract
- small handful of chocolate morsels
- 1 tbsp of vegan butter alternative
- sea salt for flavor richness
- a couple tablespoons of almond milk for consistency

I just mixed everything together and put into a bowl for storage in the fridge. I’m going to tweak this recipe a bit in the future, even though it is tasty. I may swap in stevia or maple syrup and use coconut oil instead. Don’t know, but that’s the fun of playing with your food!

Working backwards, enjoying one of my favorite smoothies as of late...chocolate espresso flavors meets banana.

The layers look super funky as I am also using a greens powder for an added nutritional umph. But for this I threw the following in and blended.

- 2 scoops chocolate magic from
- 20g of oats
- Some ice cubes
- 1 frozen banana
- A little bit of almond milk
- A splash of coffee

PS...if you want 20% off chocolate magic feel free to use BUILDINGTHEBAT at checkout, but you can of course swap in any protein powder on this one. We have personally been loving this particular brand not only for the taste but the company’s mission and values. @ Columbia, Maryland

Midday to jack up the heart rate and hit all the major muscles. Doing this without the rest breaks in a EMOM fashion took just 32 minutes. All you need is something to hang on and something that could act as a bench (a chair even).
