Blue chocolate protein milk-shake + workouts

January 26, 2015 By Ashley 33 Comments

Happy Monday! How was your weekend? I hope it was great. In between packing up boxes, Dave and I ran some errands, went out to dinner at Capo’s and had a lovely outdoor brunch with friends at Epic Roasthouse on the Bay. We also bought a new couch. Good times.

But I digress, because I have something tasty to share with you. Now when you hear the word milk-shake, your mind instantly goes to a checkered-floor diner with a red jukebox blaring, right? Or maybe you think about one of those creamy shakes from the drive-thru, which are so thick you can hardly get at them with a straw? Whatever image comes to mind, I’m sure your mouth waters a little bit when you hear that word. Mine sure does. That’s why you’re going to be quite shocked that the milk-shake I’m talking about today is in the form of a protein powder. Yup.

Adaptogen Science TastyWHEY protein powder

Thanks to my role as a FitFluential Ambassador, I’ve recently had the delicious opportunity to try out a product by Adaptogen Science. The product? TastyWHEY protein powder in Rich Chocolate Milk-Shake.

Adaptogen Science chocolate TastyWHEY via A Lady Goes WestThis two-pound tub of rich chocolate protein powder contains 24 servings.

I’ve taken this protein powder for a spin in two ways, or wheys, no pun intended. The first test? I mixed it with cold water, shook it up and enjoyed it plain after some recent workouts. Here are my thoughts:

  • It mixes very easily. 
  • It smells good.
  • The texture is light. It’s not at all chalky.
  • It tastes just great, with a chocolatey-milk-shake flavor.
  • There’s no after-taste.
  • A one-scoop serving has 160 calories and 20 grams of protein, which is the perfect range in my opinion.
  • It provides quick recovery after a workout, with its mix of complete proteins and carbs. I definitely felt whole again when consuming this shake after teaching two hours of group fitness in a row.

The great taste of TastyWHEY is no accident. Apparently it wasn’t easy for the Adaptogen Science folks to settle on the magic recipe. They spent years developing it and are super pleased with what they landed on, and the product has even won a taste award. Here’s some of the official information you may want to know about Adaptogen Science’s TastyWHEY:

TastyWHEY™ is a high-protein supplement mix that provides exceptional nutrition. It promotes peak wellness by use of a proprietary combination of exceptionally high-quality whey protein, along with MCT’s, low glycemic index carbohydrates and micronutrients. It’s 100 percent ultra-pure, with no cheap blends.

That’s a mouthful, but pretty much sums it up.

One delicious and healthy protein smoothie

And the second test I conducted on TastyWHEY? I added a scoop of this protein powder to make what I believe to be the very best creamy smoothie I’ve ever created, and it tasted just like a rich milk-shake. Oh and it turned out blue.

I whipped one of these up on Saturday after a workout and could not stop talking about how good it was for the rest of the day. Pretty darn filling and so easy …

I’m pretty sure I will be enjoying these milk-shake smoothies on a regular basis now that I’ve come across this super quick and easy recipe. I mean oh-so-good. And you definitely have to brush your teeth afterwards, because it leaves a lovely blue coloring to the teeth and lips. 

But seriously, if you’re in the market for a new protein powder, give Adaptogen Science a try by checking out the products on Amazon. And you can even follow the brand on Instagram to see pictures of big buff athletes who rely on the Adaptogen line of products to stay in peak form. (No, they have not featured me yet. And I’m not sure why?)

A look at my week of workouts

Now as we do at the start of every week, let’s get to my weekly workout recap to see how it’s been going over here in the realm of fitness …

Weekly Workouts from A Lady Goes West

Weekly Workouts

  • Monday – Completed 30-minute dumbbell workout
  • Tuesday – Attended one-hour outdoor bootcamp class
  • Wednesday – Taught one-hour BODYATTACK and BODYPUMP classes, foam rolling
  • Thursday – Taught one-hour BODYPUMP class, foam rolling
  • Friday –  Attended one-hour authentic Hatha yoga session
  • Saturday –  Attended 45-minute kettlebell class 
  • Sunday – Rest day

What was good about my week of workouts?

I’m killing it on variety lately. Not only did I do my own workout with dumbbells, practice yoga and teach a few classes, I also stepped out of my normal routine to try out two different things like an outdoor bootcamp and a kettlebell session. This past week, I spent a lot of time on strength training and got in cardio twice, during the outdoor bootcamp and during BODYATTACK. Over the past month, I’ve brought the amount of intense workouts that I do down, and this week continued on with that trend. I had five good days of workouts, a light day of yoga and a full day of rest. I’m definitely finding some balance these days.

What could have been better about my week of workouts?

Once again, as has been the case the past few weeks, I could have stood to fit in a third session of cardio. However, I did feel pretty good overall. No major complaints. 

Alright, guys. Go off and have a great Monday! Even though I’m drowning in boxes, logistics and other work, I will be back here tomorrow to ramble on about something for you. And I’ll probably have had another Blue chocolate protein milk-shake smoothie by then too.

What’s one way you got active lately? What’s your favorite way to use protein powder? How would you mix this one up?

    Yum, love your smoothie combination, Ashley! I make something similar for breakfast with some unsweetened cocoa powder & a frozen banana added in. What’s the ingredient list of this protein powder like? Sunwarrior has been my go-to lately, love it! Way to go on your workouts last week, girl!

      Hi Kushboo! Cool, I’ve never tried Sunwarrior before. The ingredients in this one are as follows: whey protein concentrate, coconut powder, corn syrup, sodium caseinate, sugar, propylene glycol, potassium chloride, guar gum, sucralose and a few other long words. I typically just pay attention to the type of protein. This one taste really good! Nice to hear you like a good smoothie too. Hope your Monday is excellent! 🙂

        Well, no artificial sweeteners of course and I don’t really care for some of them sweetened with stevia, it’s really dependent on the product. It’s funny, some with Stevia taste great and others dont.

The latest on Instagram

I've got to be honest, I'm much more of a writer t I've got to be honest, I'm much more of a writer than an Instagrammer and many times I feel like what I want to share doesn't fit well into a grid. But I'm able to bring much more long-form content to my blog each week. Speaking of that, this week, I debuted a new series called "A Lady Goes West Advice Corner" which has been something I've wanted to put together for a while. In this series, I'm taking totally anonymous questions from YOU and giving you some neutral third-party advice on it all. Here are the questions I addressed in the first advice corner edition:
.
-“I became a first-time mom last spring and am currently dealing with all things motherhood. How do I deal with my expectations vs. reality of being a mom?" (such a good one, and I've been there)
-“How do you deal with days when you don't love your body? I think we can all relate to looking in the mirror and being disappointed with what we see?" (this happens to us all)
-“How do you deal with comparing yourself to others on social media and not feeling like everyone is doing things better than you?" (spoiler alert: everyone has their issues that you don't see)
.
The answers are long, they come from my heart, and I hope they can provide some value to you! If this is something you're interested in, head over to A Lady Goes West today to check it out, and you can submit a question for the next edition.

HOME! We closed on and moved into our home in Char HOME! We closed on and moved into our home in Charlotte over the weekend, and we're so excited to get settled in our new neighborhood, city and state after many weeks of transition. In honor of this momentous occasion, I thought it would be fun to look back at the places Dave and I have lived together over the last 12 years. Here's what it has looked like -- and each place has been special for different reasons:
.
-2009-2012 in a high-rise condo in downtown Orlando, where we lived when we got married.
-2012-2013 in a one-bedroom apartment in South of Market in San Francisco, which was always freezing no matter the time of day or year.
-2013-2014 in a tiny studio apartment in Nob Hill in San Francisco, which was only 550-square-feet, but we could hear the cable cars out of our always-open windows, so that was cool.
-2014-2017 in a two-bedroom townhouse in Walnut Creek, where we brought home both Rudy and Brady and had many sleepless nights.
-2017-2021 in a house that we owned in Pleasant Hill outside of San Francisco, which was across the street from a Starbucks so we went there way too often.
.
And now we're here in Charlotte. It's good to be home! I'd love to know: Where do you call home?
Soulmates. ❤️ Whether you’re loving on other Soulmates. ❤️ Whether you’re loving on others or just yourself today, my little crew is wishing you a wonderful Valentine’s Day!
Good additions! Even though I'm all about simplify Good additions! Even though I'm all about simplifying life, I also like adding more good, if there's room for it. And the last year has given me ample opportunity to make some changes and add a lot of good. Here's my super-random list of things I've added to my life in the last year that I now love:
.
-Using oat milk as my milk of choice (it's literally the creamiest, and I can’t go back to others now)
-Choosing to be outside as much as possible (can't believe I stayed indoors so much before, never exploring the beautiful Bay Area and now Charlotte until the last year)
-Teaching and taking virtual fitness classes (I was a gym rat for years, and now I actually love to work out at home with my virtual fitness friends)
-Wearing my Apple watch for notifications so I don't always need to be on my phone and tracking some beneficial metrics (I've only had my watch for about 9 months, and I love to check my heart-rate and close my rings)
-Appreciating the ability to work for myself and giving myself friendlier deadlines (I've been my own boss for several years and used to be so strict with my deadlines, until I realized it was stressing me more than it needed to, so now I say no to a lot of things and only do what works well in my life, without adding too much unnecessary stress)
-Shorter workouts (full-hour workouts are a thing of the past for me)
-Wearing more colors (no more black uniforms every day)
-And more!
.
I wrote a whole post about this topic on A Lady Goes West this week if this is of interest to you, and you can head on over and check it out. I'd love to know: What's something (random or not) that you've added to your life in the last year that you now love?
Over the weekend, I stepped foot into a big-box gy Over the weekend, I stepped foot into a big-box gym for the first time in more than 11 months. How did I feel about it? Mixed ... When we left California, gyms were still closed, and once we got to North Carolina, I was so used to not going to the gym, I didn't even think about going. After being here a month, I finally decided to get a guest pass at a gym near me, and I went twice. Here are my thoughts on the experience: 
.
At first, I felt so excited to drive up and go in and work out in a big space with a lot of equipment and not be at home. But then reality sank in: Even though masks were required and there were signs everywhere reminding people, about half the folks in the gym had their masks off or had them down around their chin. Ummm, not cool. I get it, working out with a mask on sucks, but rules are rules, folks. I also didn't like that it was busier than I expected, and quite a bit of the equipment I wanted to use was occupied. That never happens at home.
.
Overall, I'm glad that those who need to get to the gym are getting the opportunity, but right now, I think I'll go back to sweating safely at home for a little while longer. But at least I got my first locker-room selfie in almost a year. I'd love to know. Have you been back to the gym yet?
