Under Armour’s What’s Beautiful Campaign has me focusing on my goal of eating for energy so of course I have to share what I eat after a workout.
What’s beautiful to me? Using food as fuel to power my workouts, reach my physical goals and see results. What’s not so hot? A great workout followed by crappy food or using food to feed emotions.
Does this mean I do this perfectly? Nope, but I’d like to think I’m pretty good at it most of the time and the better I get, the more results I see. That’s when I reward myself with things like … new bikinis!!!
With my new swimwear on the way, after I finished my workout today, I went straight to the kitchen to make my favorite post-workout green smoothie. While I was there, I figured I’d let you in on how it’s done. Watch the video to get the recipe, but keep in mind, I don’t usually measure anything. I just add ingredients to the blender and it all works out.

Great offer! I find it hard to keep up with different challenges like this given work, blogging, and my fitness business. Not the actual doing of them but the recording of it all. 🙂
Green smoothies are the best! I have one every day for breakfast.
Marissa says
I hear ya! I’m in the business of inspiring people so it’s important for me to give it a good effort to do it! Plus, I just love the message which makes it worth it.
Kara says
I’ve always been scared of green smoothies, haha! I’ll have to finally take the plunge and try this. I’m going to go find you on UA!!
Marissa says
Don’t be scared of them! This is the best one for beginners!
Nellie says
Ahh I do so many smoothies but I have yet to go GREEN! I’ve got to try!
Marissa says
Oh green is a must! Great way to get an extra serving of leafy greens into your day!
Joi @ Rx Fitness Lady says
I’ve been wanting to try kale. I see it all over the blogs. I love pineapples too. Sounds good!
Marissa says
Oh you should definitely try kale! So good and good for you! Pineapple is great in this smoothie because it cuts any bitterness from the greens.
Tony Nguyen says
This looks so healthy ,I have been wondering what would I take after work out since eating too much might not help me building my body at all. Thanks for sharing the drink, I will try it soon.
Marissa says
As long as you are eating quality nutrients you can meet your goals. Let me know how the smoothie is when you try it!
Amy @ Mommy Rodeo says
I haven’t joined the campaign yet – been contemplating it though. I have been thinking of incorporating green smoothies into my daily routine – so thank you for a great post and reminder that it’s easy and tasty!
Marissa says
Yes, Amy, it’s beyond easy and will give you so much energy!
