What’s up team Slammin’!
Welcome to the very first smoothie drop from yours truly – Slammin’ Sam B. You know I’m all about the rugby, the fight, the energy… and smoothies are one of my secret weapons. 💥
Every morning, me, my dad, mum, and little bro gather in the kitchen, throw on our favourite tunes, and get blending. It’s a full-on smoothie showdown:
🎶 Music pumping.
🥤 Smoothies whizzing.
🏆 First one to finish wins. (I’m usually the champ, just sayin’.)
And guess what? These smoothies aren’t just tasty – they help me get the nutrients I need to take on ALL (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia) like a rugby pro charging down the pitch.
🥇 Today’s MVP: The Sammy Special 🥇
This one’s my go-to. It’s fruity, creamy, and packs a serious punch of goodness. Here’s what’s in it and why it rocks:
| Ingredient | Why it’s a legend |
|---|---|
| 🍑 Nectarine | Full of vitamin C – perfect for a strong immune system. |
| 🍯 Honey | Natural energy booster – no crash, just smooth tackling power. |
| 🍐 Pear | Keeps your tummy happy and digestion smooth. |
| 🫐 Blueberries | Tiny but mighty – full of antioxidants to fight off the bad stuff. |
| 🍌 Banana | Gives you potassium for strong muscles (rugby legs anyone?). |
| 🥣 Natural Yogurt | Packed with probiotics to help your gut play in top form. |
| 🌾 Oats | Long-lasting energy for the full 80 minutes. |
| 🥛 Oat Milk | Dairy-free, creamy, and full of goodness. |
| 🥝 Kiwi | Super high in vitamin C and adds a zippy twist. |
| 🥬 Spinach | Iron-packed – helps your blood work like a machine. |
| 🥬 Kale | Another green hero – helps boost energy and focus. |
| 🌰 Flax Seeds | Omega-3s for your brain and joints. 💥 |
| 🌱 Chia Seeds | Keeps you feeling full and fueled – tiny seeds, big power. |
| 🫚 Ginger | Keeps your tummy calm and fights inflammation. Boom. |

💬 Why Smoothies Help Me Smash It
Since we started this smoothie routine, I’ve had more energy, better blood counts, and I’ve felt like I can still be me – even while tackling ALL. Every sip is part of my training – not just for rugby, but for life. And doing it with my fam? That’s the best part.
So come on, future smoothie champs – grab your blender and get Slammin’!
Until next time…
Stay strong. Stay smooth. Stay Slammin’.
✌️💚
Sam B.
