My “Dorm Room” Cardio Workout (I guess this works for at home too!)
- 50 jumping jacks
- 5 burpees
- 30 seconds of mountain climbers
- 5 jump squats
- 30 seconds of jump rope
- 10 push ups
- 30 second break
Repeat this 3-5 times (adjust according to fitness level.. you may need to do less or you may be able to do more). =)
My Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Mousse Pudding
- 1 Scoop chocolate casein protein powder
- 2 Tablespoons of PB2 (you could also use natural peanut butter, but it will contain a lot more calories, so factor that in if you’re counting)
- 1/2 Tablespoon of unsweetened baking cocoa
- 1 Tablespoon of Stevia
- 2 or more Tablespoons of water (this part is tricky)
Put all of the dry ingredients in a bowl. Then (this is the important part!) SLOWLY add cold water, tablespoon by tablespoon.. mixing in between.. until you get a VERY thick consistency. Once it’s thoroughly mixed and at a thick consistency, pop it in the freezer for 15-30 minutes. I leave mine in for 30 because I like it colder and denser in consistency. It is seriously SO rich and delicious. I have it almost EVERY night before bed because it’s THAT good =)
