Green smoothies, which combine leafy green superfoods and antioxidant-rich fruits, have quickly become a wildly popular basis for healthy, effective dieting. But this book shows how these wonder drinks are good for much more than losing weight. Each recipes helps provide the perfect nutritional base to fuel workouts that build muscle, burn fat, and boost athletic endurance.

In addition to detailing the calories, protein, fat, and carbs in each recipe, the authors lay out the cutting-edge science of how the body fuels itself before workouts and recovers after the session is finished.
