Apple Cinnamon Protein Pancakes

One thing I absolutely Love is breakfast! Literally, I wake up in the morning and the first thing I think of is coffee & checking my meal plan for todays meal of the day. I get pretty excited about it and actually wake up early to make sure I have time to cook & eat before taking my son to school and getting my workout done for the day.

My plan was for some coconut pancakes, but since I don't have coconut flour I decided to sway from the plan a little adding in more protein and less carbs for the meals. With all honestly I love my oat pancakes WAY MORE and this recipe was perfectly balanced and delicious!

Let me know how you like them. Catch me on facebook or IG @mommyfied.

Ingredients :
1/4c Oats - old fashioned (I tossed in the vitamix & turned into Oat Flour)
1 whole egg
3-4 egg whites
1 scoop protein powder (I used Cellucor Cinnamon Swirl - you could use vanilla whey or if you're looking to go BIG the Hard Core Base Shake from Beachbody and sprinkle with cinnamon)
1/2 chopped apple

Toss everything into the blender after the oats are in powder form. Blend until mixed.
The batter will be fluffy & light.
Spray your pan with some Olive Oil and cook.

P90X3 Available Dec 10th!!

Lets meet P90X3 shall we??

First off, there is no longer the excuse of  "I don't have time to workout".  This fitness program is ONLY 30 minutes a day for 6 days a week.  I know that everyone can find 30 minutes a day to devote to a healthier lifestyle and this is why I think P90X3 would benefit you...

Muscle Acceleration Explained:  Many fans of P90X were hooked on the science of muscle confusion- which introduced variety to the workouts and prevented plateaus.  P90X3 takes a hint from that success and from studies showing the most dramatic body transformations happen within the first 30 minutes of a workout.  Enter muscle acceleration, a Tony Horton- approved highly- structured schedule with and incredibly high level of intensity and an unprecedented variety of moves. The gurus behind P90X3 combined exercises and added some twists to maximize your time and keep every muscle challenged for a full 30 minutes.

I remember during P90X I was always giggling at Tony...which brings me to my next point! Say Goodbye to Boredom:  Tony Horton does not disappoint.  With his witty one-liners and can-do mantras, he'll simultaneously have you laughing and fired-up to bust out that final rep. Along with the consistent entertainment, P90X3 has the most workouts of any Beachbody program! With 16 workouts in the base kit, they switch it up before you have a chance to consider boredom. From cardio to strength to pilates to MMX, there is something for everyone! SAY WHAT???!!! How awesome is this!

The ideal P90X3-er: 
It may seem lofty to proclaim, but P90X3 is indeed a workout for everyone.  Everyone searching for tighter abs and leaner muscles, that is. But fitness novices and experts need not be afraid by P90X3's come-one-come-all invitation. You don't have to have any previous P90X experience in order to get killer results.  For the beginner, the variety of workouts in P90X3 is the perfect place to discover their fitness style.  If the move can be modified there is a cast member showing you how.  But don't expect to be an expert on day one. (YES, fitness veterans will still be challenged.)  As Tony says, "You don't get off easy, you just get to finish faster!"

It doesn't stop there:
And of course there are some bells and whistles too good to ignore. First off, the Coach exclusive: if P90X3 is purchased through a coach any time from December 10th-31st (including Challenge Packs), the customer receives an exclusive P90X3 baseball cap! 

WHOOP WHOOP!!! What better way to spread the word about this revolutionary program???

P90X3

WOOHOO!! I am SO Excited for the NEW P90X3!! Let me tell ya, P90X was the very first Beachbody program I ever did. It was the stepping stone to a whole new life! I was committed and graduated the full 90 days, but it wasn't easy.

The workouts were an hour + long and for a beginner that seemed like FOREVER! Well, shoot it still does and honestly why I haven't been able to complete X2. So sad. But, all this leads me to P90X3!!

It's just a phenominal program through and through. I can't wait to get my hands on it and get back to Tony's trainings. The fact that it's ONLY 30 mins a day with even better results than the original has me SOLD! 

Here's some facts to share about X3 that'll help you understand more about it.  

**Check out numbers 5, 16 & 19**

1. All workouts are 30 minutes long

2. The warm-up is 2 minutes and then constant work for the remaining 28 minutes

3. There is a separate warm-up disk called Cold Start if you need a longer warm-up due to environment, time of day, etc

4. P90X3 is a separate program from P90X and P90X2, not a harder version

12. And P90X3 has MMX – a Mixed Martial Arts Extreme that expands the Kenpo workout

13. Includes Agility X- All new agility programming

14. And yes, Yoga is still part of the program, but it’s only 30 mins

15. There are 4 schedules in X3- classic, lean, doubles, and bulk

16. 39 out of 40 people in the Test group lost 10% of their body fat %!!!!! (Whoa! How awesome is that?!) 

17. If you’ve done P90X or P90X2, you’ll see similar moves and all new stuff too

18. Equipment needed will include weights or bands (a pull-up bars is great like in P90X, but optional)

19. Every move in X3 has a Beginner/Modified, In between move, and Challenging/Hard

20. This program is based on science that suggests the first 30 minutes is the most effective part of any exercise routine, so we accelerate the workouts to create the most effective 30 minute routine

21. Ab Moves- Most of them are athletic in nature, some are standing up and many are front facing instead of being on your back

22. P90X3 will be available December 10, 2013
