  1. same. they’re yummy and my health seems to be pretty good :)

  2. Banana milk shakes are great for body building, drop a raw egg in to build it up

  3. Bananas are a healthy food – but they are very high in calories and carbohydrates. A medium sized banana contains about 129 calories, which isn’t bad but can add up very quickly. If you’re working out regularly, you shouldn’t worry about it too much – but if you wanted the best alternative for body building I would seek something higher in protein like chicken, fish, eggs and dairy, nuts, beans, and seeds.

    bananas are a great source of potassium and for some good high GI carbs after training. not quite sure why you are training for 2 hours, that’s a little long for most people

    a lot of anything isnt good.
    you will gain weight if you consume more calories than you spend during the day. try something else – apple, sandwich, yogurt, cereal, baby carrots etc.
