A high-protein 'what I eat in a day' video by Cristina, who is aiming for 130 g of protein. In the morning she has an iced almond milk vanilla latte made with a Nespresso Vertuo pod. Before the gym she eats two slices of whole wheat toast with peanut butter, banana and cinnamon. After the gym she has a berry protein smoothie bowl topped with granola, banana and peanut butter. Lunch is two open-faced sourdough toasts with cottage cheese, smoked salmon, arugula and a fried egg each, finished with balsamic glaze and seasoning. Dinner is a chicken teriyaki bowl with rice, edamame, broccoli, carrot, cucumber and mango. The protein numbers on screen (about 1 + 11 + 42 + 40 + 38 g) were used to size the portions.

Whole grains and fruit fibre, the classic slow-burn pre-workout fuel.
