Post-cycle Protein Shake
If you’d told me, at the start of the first lockdown, that I would end up becoming an avid cyclist before the year was out, I never would have believed you.
Cycling is a big part of my life, and as such, I need fuel for my rides, and I need fuel for recovery. Part of my routine is to put some porridge oats to soak in almond milk before we head out for my rides, so they’re softened and easier to blend when I get back.
To this, I add a small banana, a spoonful of peanut butter and a generous pinch of ground turmeric.
My go-to post-cycle protein shakes have recently gone next level with the addition of Clean Greens.
I’ve just come back from a two-hour afternoon ride – not pictured above, that was in June last year, a marked difference to the 1.8 °C winter ride I’ve just been on! I have to say, my post-cycle protein shake, sipped in the shower as I slowly warmed up from the cold ride, was utterly fantastic.
It was a vibrant green colour, with a gentle sweetness. Very moreish, and not just because I was rather hungry after the ride. It felt rather virtuous too, with the addition of the Clean Greens.
What are Clean Greens?
The Clean Greens immunity booster from Rheal is a blend of 8 superfoods, including the nutrient-dense greens spirulina, chlorella, moringa, wheatgrass and barley grass. It contains no sweeteners, flavourings or fillers of any kind: just super greens.
So many of us still don’t include enough greens in our diet. Clean Greens is a simple, easy way to make sure we’re boosting our greens intake.
Clean Greens comes as a vibrant green powder in a fully recyclable cardboard container. Each container contains 150 grams of Clean Greens, enough for 30 servings, and retails for approximately £25.
This works out to be approximately 83 pence per serving.

How much water do I use with a tea spoon of the powder please
It’s around 200 ml, just under one cup, that they recommend.
Hi Tracey you can use as much or as little water, with it. Depends on how strong you want it to taste. ( I use a bit of cordial in mine to make it more palitable). Hope this helps.
Which fruits we placed in the blender I saw the lemon then spinach but was not sure about the rest was it banana or . ?
