I don’t chase macros. I chase movement, clarity, and results. This smoothie isn’t a trend—it’s a protocol. Built from science, lived experience, and rhythm. It’s how I start my day, and it’s how I stay dialed in.

 🕒 Timing Matters: Midmorning Refueling Window
 
 I don’t hit this smoothie first thing.  
 I start with **Leucine + morning protein**, then move—15 minutes of walking, stretching, or yard work.  
 **An hour to 90 minutes later**, I blend this.  
 It fuels my **longer walk**, **workout**, or **deep work block**.  
 It’s not just fuel—it’s a rhythm reset.
