Shakes and smoothies allow you pack in calories in liquid form, making them a handy way to get in an extra meals worth of nutrients in a quick and easy manner.
St Pierre recommends Super Shakes, a recipe series his team of food nutritionists have created to help you get the gains in. Aim to create something that offers the correct mix of lean protein, veggies, fruits, and healthy fats.
A good primer shake recipe would be:
• 150-250ml water (just enough for it to mix)
• 2 scoops of your chosen protein
• 2 handfuls of spinach
• Half a frozen banana and 2 pitted dates
• 2 thumbs of flax or chia seeds
• Top with a few sprinkles of coconut and 5 ice cubes
