Delicious Protein Pancakes

It’s been a great year here at EXL Fitness and Performance. And I’m very grateful for you being a part of that success. This week being Thanksgiving I want to make sure I’m showing you how grateful I am.

But before I do…

Let’s get serious for a moment. You’re going to eat a LOT of food this Thursday. You know it. I know it. And that’s ok. I’m sure you’ve been working out just a little bit harder to prepare for it, anyway? And I know you’re going to get a good workout in on Thursday before you chow down, right? (current camper/clients: you should have received an email giving you access to an awesome workout you can do at home or on the road, the only equipment you need is a chair or bench).

Now, besides that, I also want to remind you of one thing you do NOT want to do on Thursday, and that is skip meals so you can stuff yourself with one big one. That’s a no-no.

You still need to start your day right by boosting your metabolism with a solid breakfast. Especially if you finished the “kick your trash” boot camp workout I sent you, or played a mean game of “Turkey Bowl”.  So to help you out with that I’ve got a gift for you from me and my buddies over at Prograde Nutrition. It’s a delicious Protein Pancakes recipe.

Thanks to the protein in the recipe your blood sugar won’t go crazy like it can just by eating a Brobdingnagian stack of pancakes with sugary syrup. Nope, this recipe will fill you up, nourish your body and give your metabolism just the boost it needs.

You can get the Protein Pancakes recipe (hyperlink to http://exlfitness.getprograde.com/prograde-pancake-recipe.html)

FYI, the Prograde Protein is a high quality pharmaceutical grade protein sweetened with stevia, a natural sweetener, not an artificial sweetener like most protein powders.

As far a topping for your pancakes, I like fruit and a little plain, low-fat yogurt sweetened with a little Splenda, stevia or agave nectar…yum;-)

Be sure to let me know how you like it.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Stay Fit
