• Here’s an easy, low-calorie, refreshing recipe that tastes pretty good: blend ice, coconut water, chocolate stevia, sea salt and gelatin or amino acids for 60 seconds at high speed. (for the gelatin part of this recipe, I recommend the primal peptides from Natural Force nutrition, use 10% discount code BEN10).
• This is pretty cool if you’re into plant identification: https://m.reddit.com/r/whatsthisplant/
• Yet another reason I am still including electrostimulation in my training protocol - good new research (in this case they used a Miha-BodyTec).
