Fitness Programs / What Blender Should I Buy?

Fitness Programs


fitness blender:

If you are in the market to buy a blender, you may be surprised by the amount of choices there are. There are immersion blenders, counter top blenders, blenders designed to crush ice, blenders just for smoothies, blenders that are also food processors, etc. It can be daunting to pick one out.


  • So how do you choose the right blender?


The first thing you need to decide is what you are planning to use the blender for. Do you simply want to blend drinks or make smoothies or make green smoothies? Will you be crushing ice with it? What about the capacity to grind grain or mix dough? Many blenders today are combination blenders / food processors - is this something you would like?

Next you should take a look at your budget. Since blenders can run from $20 to $500, there is quite a choice.

Once you know your budget and your basic use of the blender, you can narrow down your choices.

Another thing to look at is the capacity. There are single serve blenders which are great if you are living alone, but not necessarily what you want if you are hoping to make smoothies for your family. Most other blenders will be about 4 to 7 cups. Some like the Blendtec offer 3 quart capacity. I recommend a larger size so that you do not end up overflowing the container.

Next, look at the wattage. The higher the wattage, the more powerful the blender. If you want something blended very smooth, then you want more watts. Those who want a blender for green smoothies will want a powerful blender in order to break down the greens adequately.

Various designs offer various perks. Do the blades come out for cleaning? Does the lid fit tightly? Can you add ingredients while the blender is blending? These options may help you choose one blender over another.

Finally, take a look at the size and design. Will it be on your counter or in your cupboard? Take a look at the height to see if it will fit where you want it. Do you like the color?

Taking a look at these various options will help you choose the blender that is just right for you.

If you are looking for a recommendation, then I suggest you take a look at the Ninja 1100 Blender. This kitchen system is extremely versatile and has many great reviews. It can handle crushing ice, making green smoothies and mixing dough. It comes with two containers that give you the option of using it more like a blender or more like a food processor - depending on what you are making.

Healthy Weight Loss - Creating a Weight Loss Program Fitness Programs  Before you begin any weight loss program, it is important that you draw up a specific plan to help you stay on track. As a prelude to making your weight loss plan, you will need to do a little homework. First, you will need to set a weight loss goal.
