28 Days of Pilates: Day #5 + a Blueberry-Mango Smoothie
Are you still with me after yesterday’s workout??
I know that was a hard one but don’t worry, we’re going to get stronger! That’s the point of all this right? 🙂
We’ll get there, we just have to keep moving forward one day at a time.
Today we’ll give the arms a much-needed break and show the lower body some love.
Afterwards whip up this easy smoothie to replenish your energy and give your immune system a boost. It’s a favorite of mine right now.
Blueberry-Mango Smoothie
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or milk of your choice)
1/2 frozen banana
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup frozen mango
drizzle of honey
optional: protein powder/chia seeds/spinach
Health benefits:
Blueberry: whole body antioxidant support, improves cardiovascular health, improves vision, stabilizes blood sugar, improves memory.
Mango: improves digestion, clears skin, boosts immune system, anti-cancer properties, normalizes insulin levels.

I apologize that I my feet aren’t showing in this video. While in the deep squat I am simply lifting and lowering one heel at a time 🙂
