So this is episode 88, we are doing part two of the protein shake recipe. And in case you didn’t know, back on episode, is it 84? 84. We did, I showed a shake that I like to make, it was the mocha one, check it out. And then Chris did one, it was like a banana strawberry thing, just divine. And we figured, well you know what, you guys give us your protein shake recipes. And we're going to pick one that we thought was going to be kind of interesting. We're going to make it live in TV. And so we did. We chose Kasey, she’s from South Bend, Indiana. And she won a T-shirt for us picking hers. But we got so many great responses, because people had to put them on Made Fit TV on the comment section and they list it all the ingredients. And you guys, check them out, episode 84. There are so many in the comments section that you can incorporate into your programs. So everyone was a winner, honestly.
So let’s get started, this is Kasey’s Fuzzy Navel protein shake. Really simple. I'm going to start with getting some ice cubes. I'm going to put about three of them in here. Oh no, I could grab them.
And now, there's this protein powder that she suggested to us. We purchased it. So go ahead and purchase it, because I think it’s pretty cool. Its Syntrax, it’s the Nectar. It’s a Whey protein isolate, which is great because it gets right to your muscles. And it is the Fuzzy Navel flavor. Really good. Really good. Lets hold it up right there. Boom, there you go.
So what we're going to do is, you can add about 10-20 ounces of water in this thing, just water. However runny you want it to be, but I'm going to add about 8 ounces, just so because I like mine to be a little bit more thicker. Okay. So here we go.
Now I'm going to put one scoop of the Nectar protein powder in there. And then the interesting thing is that she told us instant sugar free, fat free, whatever free, I just drop the little ball. Hawaiian punch, but we found just a generic brand of an orange flavored. Because it was orange flavored Hawaiian punch. Its sugar free, it’s kind of like an energy boost drink. Just like 10, 5 calories, something like that. So I'm just going to put this whole thing in here. Go ahead and put a lid on it. Plug this sucker in. I'm just going to shake it a little bit. I like to shake it. There we go.
I think it’s ready. Let’s get ourselves a glass. And thanks to Kasey, here is the Fuzzy Navel protein shake with just a hundred calories, 0 fats, 2 carbs, 0 sugars, and 23 grams of protein right there. If you like orange, you're going to love this.
Okay, so, we figured alright, we want to use that. But now we want to make a variation of it for those of you out there who want maybe a little bit something more. So we came up, basically, the Fuzzy Navel smoothie. This is a smoothie, okay.
We're going to start with four ounces of skimmed milk, right in here. We're going to add about another four ounces of water. And this will call for a little bit more ice cubes. You can add in about 5 or 6. Because you want it to be thick. You want it to be cold. You want it to be good. You can even eat it with a spoon if you wanted too. Because then you’ll think you're eating ice cream. Awesome.
Now, we're going to add two tablespoons of Sherbet. That’s what I said, orange Sherbet. Two tablespoons. This is called Sherbet, I'm sorry, Chris and I are having this argument all the time about what it’s actually called. I've always known it to be Sherbet, but hey, whatever.
So two tablespoons, and there's not that much sugar in the tablespoon. I’ll give you all the nutrition information after that, when we're all set. One scoop of this delicious protein powder. And one teaspoon of vanilla. I'm sorry, half a teaspoon. And of course we can't forget. Instead of using a full one of this, we're just going to use half. So you can kind of eyeball it. If you want to use a full one, go ahead, but we're just going to use half.
Alright, this thing is a packed. Let’s see what's going to happen. Use those muscles. I'm such a wimp. I'm going to shake it. Alright, are you guys excited? Are you? Are you excited?
Alright. Let’s pop this baby open. We pour it out in a glass. Check it out. It’s like a smoothie there. Okay. And this thing, it’s not as bad as you think. Its 170 calories, it has no fat, 15 carbs, 13 grams of sugar. Little bit high on sugar, but not that bad. And 27 grams of protein.
Chris, you're going to like that. Go ahead and enjoy, because I have to enjoy mine.
Alright, so thank you so much Kasey for giving that to us. I hope, you guys like this recipe. I hope you try both of them out. And I hope that you enjoy the variation, because it’s a little something different. It’s a little something that’s like a good treat for the spring time that’s coming up.
Okay, now we have time for a viewer email. If you guys want your Made Fit TV viewer email read on our episode, just go to MadeFitTV.com and go on the Ask Jeni button.
Okay, well, this question now is from Alister. And he is from, let’s see where he is from, Oxford, England. And he says he had seen the video, he's been doing interval training in order to trim down some weight and heighten his metabolism. But there's something that concerns him. He regularly uses a treadmill with a built in heart rate monitor, and he says he does about two minutes at 7 miles per hour and his heart rate goes to 188. And then he takes it down to about 3 and a half miles per hour for two minutes and it says 156 beats per minute. And he just wants to make sure that his heart rate is okay and that it’s healthy. And he's actually is applying for the Royal Air Force, so congratulations.
Now Alister, it’s a great, because if you're doing that interval training. If you're hitting 188 beats per minute, that means that your heart is pumping pretty much at its anaerobic threshold. You’re hitting that peak. You want to get to that point. And then when you recover and hit the two minutes, you're going to down to about 156, maybe try to bring it down a little bit lower so your body can get a little bit more recovery before you hit it back up to 188 again. What you want to do to make sure that you're getting the maximum amount of oxygen consumption and fat burn efficiency, for all of you guys out there, you want to make sure that you're working in all of your heart rates. You know, working in a 120 beats per minute. And if you're as condition as Alister, you can hit it up to about 170 or 180 or maybe even beyond. But just be careful, make sure that you're conditioned enough to start doing the high intensity interval training. Because you want to make sure that you are not over training. You're not going to injure yourself or that your heart is strong enough to do it. You want to get, make sure you have clearance before you hit that stuff.
So, Alister, thank you so much for that and good luck with the Royal Navy, that’s awesome.
Well thanks so much. And like I said, if you want your email read, go to MadeFitTV.com and email me at Jeni@MAdeFitTV.com. Follow me on Facebook, I'm Jennifer DiDonato.
