Fitness Friday- 3 Perfect Post-Workout Smoothies

I know I'm not the only one who walks out of the gym starving and is tempted to go through a fast food drive-thru.STOP, don't do it! You just killed it in class and now it’s time to refuel because what you eat after your workout makes a difference on how quickly you will see those results. I've been told to eat within 30 minutes after your workout so your body doesn’t start to burn muscles.A smoothie is quick and easy to make, giving your body what it needs after your workout. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that these three smoothies taste just like dessert! Avo-Banana Smoothie
