BEST PROTEIN MILK-

So I am obsessed with chocolate protein milks -and YES, it is better and healthier to eat real food I know. BUT LIFE! Between work and training and needing to get more protein, and going straight from running or weights to work, a chocolate high protein milk is so useful🙌.

So this weekend I ended up buying 4 different types - there are a few others I have tried but not this weekend (will cover those another time).

Things to consider -
1. PROTEIN
2. CALORIES per serving
3. PRICE
4. TASTE (very personal )

So considering the first 3 points, the First Choice High Protein is best protein (for the volume) and bang for buck - and tastes good - AND you can keep in cupboard until you need them cold.

The WOOLWORTHS SA one is a personal favourite for taste from me, good high protein and a little more expensive - more calories as bigger volume.

The USN - Ultimate Sports Nutrition 🇿🇦 one is super tasty too, less protein but a good price. actually tastes as good as the Woolies one for me

The Protein Factory is good protein and calories but much more expensive, but you can taste the creamy price (I prefer a more milky less creamy option )

Worth keeping for immediately after a run or training session, a little mid morning or mid afternoon snack, or those days when life just happens and food is not an option.

EXERCISE IDEAS FOR HIGH HAMSTRING TENDON INJURY

So I am 5 weeks in after acutely injuring my tendon (small tear) but very similar rehab to tendonopathy.

These are some of the exercises I have done to help rehab - I am NOT at the single leg stage yet ( for the video I used my un-injured leg 🙈)but this is exactly what I will use to get to full strength. Once is get to using hinged movements I will do a video for these too.

Save this for your own rehab

HIGH HAMSTRING INJURY

Best exercise to start with for gently strengthening the tendon - heels away from butt to activate the hamstrings.
From here lift up your butt and hold for 40 secs then rest for 20 sec x 5
As you get stronger and the tendon improves. Move your heels further away to work the hammies harder, and next progression is one leg at a time .

Let’s see if my hiking, Biskop stairs and elliptical will get me through Cape Cobra Trail Marathon 🐍 marathon next weekend - even if I can get to 30km I will be happy and then ready for RMB Ultra-trail Cape Town 55km in 5 weeks 🙏🙏🙏

If you want more info on High hamstring tendon injuries comment HELP and I will send an info sheet
