So I normally don’t make a trip into Starbucks but I didn’t have my morning caffeine…which I think I’ve accepted I’m addicted to.  

After my workout I didn’t have a lot of energy plus I didn’t have any of my protein with me.  So I stopped into Starbucks so I could at least get my caffeine.

Well it turns out the have this little power protein plate which was good because I was in a crunch with no protein powder.

In it is Cheddar cheese, hard boiled egg, grapes, apple slices, whole-wheat bagel and peanut butter.  In total here is the breakdown
Calories 370
Protein 17g
Total Fat 17g
Fiber 5g
Sodium 600mg

For being in a crunch, it did the job.  Would have rather had a Muscle Milk shake but for an immediate solution I was happy with it and having natural products made me feel good.  So if ever in a fix for caffeine and protein, stop by your local Starbucks.

Have a good one!

So I’ve become adicted to the gym but recently I learned sometimes if I’m going to be lazy at least hit 100 push ups at home.

 Now I’m not all built and strong yet so squeezing out 100 pushups definitley has added some size to my chest.  I think I’ve shocked my chest but it’s so worth it.

 So now my goal is to work my way up to 100 straight push ups with no stopping.  That’s going to take some time…but I know I’ll definitely enjoy the pump while reaching my goal.

So lesson learned….don’t forget the basics.
