Olympic snowboarder Ellery Hollingsworth stopped by to give us the run-down on how she stays energized, and how she&amp;#039;s getting pumped for the Winter Olympics in Vancouver!  Proper nutrition is important for all athletes, and Ellery needs the right foods to get her through intense workouts. She always has breakfast that consists of protein. Some of her favorites: eggs, oat bran, or a smoothie with vitamins. She likes to have extra vitamins\u2014and even carbs\u2014to give her the energy she needs. She also always carries protein bars so she never goes hungry.  Another motivator? A good playlist!
