Nice Exercise and Stretch Routine

Walking has always been my exercise of choice. I don't need any motivation to walk; rather, I crave it. But I realize, too, that it's important to include strength, balance, and stretch movements into daily life. 

In order to keep it interesting, I alternate among various exercise DVDs and videos, for about 20 minutes of supplementary workout several days a week.

Here's a series of smooth-flowing exercise and stretch routines from Ken Raupach, who trains triathletes in Australia. This one's for seniors, so it's gently demanding but not damaging!

Banana Raisin Spinach Protein Bites

BANANA RAISIN SPINACH PROTEIN BITES

These taste as rich as a loaf of banana zucchini bread. But they contain very little fat, no added sugar, no baking powder or baking soda, a good helping of plant proteins, vitamins, and spinach. 

Banana Raisin Spinach Bites

In addition to carrying these bites with me during the day, to keep up my energy and nutrition, I send boxes as gifts to friends and relatives in retirement homes, to boost their protein, vitamin and healthy spice nutrition. 

Much easier to mail these bites in a box than a package of raw spinach and protein powders. And much more fun for them to munch on.

Moist, flavorful, and rich with warming spices. With some turmeric included to help with achy knees!

INGREDIENTS:
oat flour, hemp protein powder, flax, Alive Ultra-Shake Vanilla Pea Protein powder OR Purium Super Meal L.O.V. powder, banana, raisins, spinach, egg, spices, olive oil, sea salt
