Back in October 2020 I posted a recipe for my “OLD-SCHOOL SUPER SHAKE”. Well, I am not sure if anyone was brave enough to try it. Not only is it calorie rich (not always a bad thing) it is made with whole, raw eggs and whole, raw milk. Some folks are a little scared of eating the raw stuff for fear of salmonella and other scary things.

As I stated in the original article, I am a fan of eating real food. After all, when you think about it, most protein supplements are just some form a of powdered milk and or eggs. Now don’t get me wrong, I do use protein powders some times. They are very convenient, and make it easy to create quick, nutrient-dense meals in a hurry. For the most part however I prefer to use whole foods including real raw milk and real eggs when I can.

To keep people from being scared of both the calories as well as the “RAW” factor from my original recipe, I have created what I hope may prove to be a more “user- friendly” version of

In place of the raw eggs I use pure, liquid egg-whites. These come pre-packaged and are already pasteurized so you won’t need to worry about the evil germs. In place of the raw milk, we’ll use non-fat milk (the kind you can get anywhere). To make it sweet and yummy we’ll replace the honey with a nice, big banana. And finally, to add back in a little fat, I like to toss in about a Tbsp. of raw, organic, Almond butter or Peanut butter (any nut butter will do).

The final shake should look like this:

1 cup non-fat milk

1 Large Banana

1 Tbsp. of nut butter

1 cup pure, liquid egg-whites

Add the milk, banana and nut butter to the blender and blend on high for about 30 seconds. Pour the egg-whites into a large, clean cup. Add the milk mixture to the egg whites and stir gently.* Finally, if you have a sweet tooth and feel that even with the banana this drink is not quite sweet enough, add a small amount of stevia.

Drink it down, and enjoy the yummy goodness.

* TAKU's Note: It's best not to blend liquid egg whites in a blender for too long because it will froth up and become a meringue.

When it comes to strength training, few concepts are as misunderstood—and blindly worshipped—as range of motion (ROM). If you've been told that full ROM is always better, I’m here to challenge that dogma. At TNT Strength, we’re not here to chase trends—we’re here to pursue truth, even if it means ruffling a few feathers. So let’s dig in.
