Welcome back to another beginner English video.
2
Today we're learning English making a smoothie.
3
Orange juice from this pitcher.
4
Greek yogurt.
5
So this is the perfect ratio.
6
Okay, so first we need to go over to the fridge.
7
This has all of the food in it.
8
So we need orange juice, peanut butter.
9
We're going to want frozen fruit.
10
Okay, we need frozen fruit.
11
That would be in the freezer.
12
We have some frozen strawberries.
13
And some frozen blueberries.
14
Okay, then this guy behind the camera.
15
Alright, so now we're going to go over to the pantry.
16
And this is where we're going to get the food that doesn't need to be cold or refrigerated.
17
We're going to start with bananas.
18
I'd say just one is probably good so we'll take this back I'll just edit there for now
19
definitely gonna want oats these um these are good just like add some calories and
20
and filler protein gotta get big and strong chia seeds there's a new pet chia pet
21
the pottery that grows seeds are what plants start out as when they're little and then they grow to
22
be something like bananas yes so bananas have little seeds in them and then when
23
they're planted they grow so these are just a bunch of little tiny seeds we're gonna want some chocolate
24
chip no we don't want chocolate okay we do we don't want chocolate chips all right so here are all of the ingredients we're going to use in the smoothie.
25
Starting off with orange juice, just juice or the stuff that's in oranges, the liquid.
26
Then we have strawberries, but they're frozen, frozen strawberries.
27
You keep them in the freezer so they never go bad basically.
28
And then frozen blueberries, some peanut butter, natural peanut butter, so it's healthy.
29
And then we have chia seeds here.
30
And then some Greek yogurt, Yogurt is it's stuff from cows and it's like them
31
They cream up milk or something and make it into this stuff Do they churn it like with butter?
32
Maybe they churn it with butter like mix it up together Not with um, I don't know how they make it and then we have a banana
33
whey protein so whey I think just means that it's from cows so it's from these guys
34
and protein protein is the stuff that makes you big and strong
35
so this stuff has 130 calories and 24 grams of protein
36
so that's a lot of protein and And then finally we have this thing of oats.
37
So we're gonna add some oats too, just a little bit.
38
And then we have a measuring spoon.
39
This thing is one tablespoon.
40
And this is just so that you know how much of something you're putting in.
41
And finally, just a regular spoon so we can scoop stuff out.
42
And that's all of the ingredients that we have for this smoothie.
43
It's kind of a lot of ingredients, actually.
44
So now what we're going to want to do is add some protein.
45
So we're going to scoop it out.
46
Get a big old scoop.
47
and we're gonna add it in.
48
So we're gonna add some protein.
49
Okay, so I'm gonna take the orange juice and just pour it in.
50
Wait, you forgot to shake it.
51
Oh, I forgot to shake it.
52
He's gotta shake it up.
53
Yeah, you gotta shake it up good so that it mixes everything so that it doesn't get too thick in the bottom.
54
It's just really well mixed in.
55
Okay.
56
Now I'll just pour it in.
57
Oh yeah, that looks pretty good.
58
Gonna add the blueberries.
59
Not too much.
60
And it wouldn't be a smoothie without some protein.
61
So we're gonna add some protein.
62
Okay, so I have the banana.
63
I'm gonna peel it.
64
Make sure to get like a good full peel.
65
drop it in there I'm gonna take the yogurt gonna take the lid off Take the spoon and mix it really good
66
Just like with the orange juice We want it.
67
We want it good and mixed up looks kind of gross actually.
68
Yeah, it's because it hasn't been mixed yet Even after mixing it still looks gross.
69
Okay, I'm just gonna do a couple spoonfuls just like two Oh Okay, um Okay, so this is when most people would lick their finger, but Maddox is not like that.
70
Oh, yeah, I'm more sophisticated Bruh, okay, so I'm just gonna move the stuff that we've already added
71
Over here cuz it's already in here.
72
We don't need it anymore now.
73
We want the peanut butter this same kind of thing.
74
It gets really separated.
75
So it's like really thick down here and really soft and liquidy up here.
76
So we have to mix it up good.
77
Oh yeah.
78
Oh yeah.
79
Now we're going to add my favorite part of the smoothie.
80
The rice cake.
81
Oh shoot, wait.
82
You always want to make sure you have one of you don't do it don't do it
83
Rice cakes are basically like these little cakes full of rice.
84
I Know we're definitely forgetting something.
85
Wait.
86
Are we forgetting protein?
87
Oh?
88
That's what it was so we're gonna add some protein Okay, now we're gonna add one tablespoon of chia seeds because they have a lot of protein.
89
So we're gonna add some protein.
90
Okay, now we're gonna add these oats.
91
And these basically, what they have is a lot of calories so you can get fat.
92
Oh yeah.
93
Good if you're bulking.
94
Oh yeah!
95
This is a bulking smoothie, so for people like us who want to get big and strong, it has like 1,400 calories or something.
96
that's pretty good at this point we definitely need some protein so we're gonna add some protein so Jaden
97
over did it a little bit on the oh no no this is how much you're supposed to have this is the ratio this is the so ratio is the amount of one thing there is compared to another so this is the perfect ratio
98
of oats to everything else the strawberries are not gonna fit in there okay this is this is definitely not good not good
99
We're gonna have to take some of these oats out of here.
100
So, obviously this is not the oat ratio you want.
101
So we're gonna try to repair some of the damage that Jayden has caused.
102
Looks pretty good to me.
103
okay someone tell me why this guy is using the world's smallest scoop to get all these oats out you've gotten like 1% of the oats
104
this is what we need this is a ladle it's just like a giant spoon it's good when you're cooking anything in a pot like soup yeah it's like a giant spoon
105
We're making a giant mess out here.
106
Now to finish it all off, we're going to add some protein.
107
Oh yeah, perfection.
108
Perfect smoothie.
109
We don't have enough liquid, so we're going to add some protein.
110
And now we have to add some water from this pitcher.
111
Lots of water, because otherwise it won't mix very well.
112
This is a key part to every smoothie.
113
There's plenty of liquid, like water or orange juice or whatever.
114
Okay now I think it's time.
115
It's time for the moment of truth to blend it all up.
116
So we're going to put the lid back on and flip the switch.
117
These are all the different settings it has.
118
So it has like this water droplet, which is basically just normal.
119
I don't know what any of these settings do.
120
And then the power level over here, but we're just gonna put it on the regular setting and then flip this switch.
121
This is good.
122
It's bloody good.
123
It's because it has so much protein.
124
Okay.
125
Don't try this at home.
126
Don't try this at home, but we're going to open the lid.
127
We're doing this so that we can get the protein into mixed well.
128
Perfect.
129
Okay, this is a dog, and this is a frozen strawberry that fell on the ground.
130
We're going to make the dog do a trick.
131
Shake.
132
Good girl.
133
Good dog.
134
That's a good dog.
135
Okay, so it's all blended up.
136
Now we just have to grab some glasses so we can drink it.
137
So I got the glasses.
138
So I'm going to I'm gonna pour this out, this is a gigantic smoothie.
139
It's huge.
140
Oh yeah.
141

146
Mmm.
147
Very good.
148
Great smoothie.
149
Tastes like oats and protein.
150
So we're gonna add some protein.
151
Doesn't taste like much else.
152
All you can taste is protein and oats.
153
But it does need one more thing.
154
It does.
155
There's one more thing we're forgetting.
156
And so we're going to add some protein.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
