some time ago I purchased protein word, slender blend but never got around to taking it, partly because i was not motivated at the time..(yet another fad) I keep wondering if i should use or bin it..

when i was at the gym last i stupidly went on a very empty stomach and regretted it as couldn't work as hard as i should have, i know future tip would be to eat more before i go.

basically what I want to know is, is it worth incorporating this into my gym schedule? and if so before or after the gym?

thanks!

    I use protein world slender blend, I have the banana and the strawberry flavours and both are lush! I use mine either an hour before the gym if I'm working out early in the morning and can't stomach food, or I have it as a snack in the afternoon!

    I tried the banana it was pretty nice! I made with water, I think I will look to have some a while before the gym as I felt rubbish last night going empty!!

    how many calories do you count if made with water?

    thanks :)

    Just the same as what it says on the container, 146 cals ... water obviously doesn't add any cals! Lol It's also lush in smoothies ... I've started making a breakfast smoothie of 40g protein slenderblend, spinach, blueberries, coconut oil, peanut butter and almond milk and it's amazing!! I can't exercise on an empty stomach, I feel sick within like 10 minutes!

    40g is 4 scoops ... if you're putting it in a smoothie though you could use less than that, depending on how much protein you want etc!
