Benefits?

Yogurt can help prevent cramping during exercise

Whey protein powder increases your changes of building more calorie-scorching lean muscle because it contains essential amino acids leucine, which is key to muscle recovery, growth & repair.

Plums are in their peak season right now, & they deliver energy boosting carbs and vitamin C to help stop muscle soreness.

For best results drink this shake 45 minutes before an hour-long workout. :)
