SHAKE

OF THE

ISSUE

When all you want to do is drink

a refreshing shake that chills out

the summer heat, it’s hard to find

something that can also help with

your muscle-building efforts in the

gym. But that doesn’t mean you

have to stay thirsty or add unwant-

ed calories to your diet! In fact, a

great post-workout shake that will

satisfy your taste buds and sweet

tooth is only seven minutes away!

Get ready for a blast of flavor! Be-

tween the banana, strawberries,

Greek yogurt and vanilla protein,

you’ve got four distinct flavors that

work together to make the perfect

mix. The ice does more than just

chill the drink, too. You can count

on this shake to help you stay

hydrated and on track with your

diet all while delivering a whopping

51 grams of protein and less than

500 calories per serving. Enjoy!
