Quick Single Serve Protein Brownie and 3-2-1 Long Lever Plank Video


I found a quick and easy single serve recipe the other day for a protein brownie that I had to try. I tweaked it to my liking and added some peanut butter because DUH! Haha!

I actually have been eating this for breakfast lately, but it would be a perfect dessert too!


3-2-1 Long Lever Planks

If you have nailed down 60 second stationary planks, this is the perfect way to level those up. Studies have shown that using the long lever position with your elbows even with your nose actually engages the core more than traditional plank stance at shoulder level.

Here is the video:


Give these a try, and let me know what you think!

Anyway, here is the recipe :)

Quick Single Serve Protein Brownie

Serves 1

The stuff:

  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (preferably not an isolate)
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp PB2 (mixed with 1 tbsp water)
  • 1 tbsp Peanut butter

What you do:
Mix the protein powder and water in a microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 10-20 seconds, I like the center of mine to not be set (like lava cake) and it usually take mine 15 seconds in my microwave.

Mix your PB2 and peanut butter and top your brownie. Enjoy!






I added a little Nutella too, why not? ;)
