When I met Nick Reese<\/a> in Austin at SXSW a few weeks ago, I was pretty pumped about that.  Nick is a guy I’ve learned a lot from and look up to for the way he ignores the supposed “limits” and is committed to standing out from the crowd.<\/p>\n

So when he told me that his girlfriend, Heather, was starting a new video site about blending and juicing<\/a> and wanted to make a custom smoothie for No Meat Athlete, I was even more excited.<\/p>\n

But I had a lot of requests…<\/h3>\n

Perhaps I got a bit carried away with the instructions — when Heather asked what type of smoothie would work best, I mentioned that it should be vegan.  Oh, and that it should have 4-to-1 carb-to-protien ratio, so we could drink it post workout.  And, oh yeah, if you wouldn’t mind, could you use hemp protein too, since I’m not a big fan of soy or rice protein?<\/p>\n

Someone with less patience might have told me to f-off, you psycho granola-crunchie.  But Heather didn’t complain a bit.  Instead, she did me one better and threw in some coconut manna and greens powder, two other favorite smoothie ingredients of mine.<\/p>\n

Here’s the video Heather put together for us, and the pre\/post-workout smoothie she came up with!<\/p>\n
