fullclass

Monday's full class

 

 

My recepe of the week… well.. the month, because it’s so frik’n GoOd!

CHICKEN APPLE HASH, cook time:15 minutes (from Robb Wolf’s book recepe)

  • boneless skinless chicken breast (or Turkey)- I use lean ground
  • Fresh Fuji apples
  • Jamaican All Spice
  • Garam Massala
  • Cinnamon
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil

If you use full chicken breast, finely chop it in small pieces. Grate the apples. Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a generous amount of olive oil. Add 1-2 tsp of any of the above spices to the oil and allow to infuse for around 2 minutes. I use around 1 to 1.5 tsp of each, with a little bit more cinnamon. I like the intense flavor.

Add the chicken or Turkey and stir well to brown the meat on all sides. When the meat is almost cooked, add the apples and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Enjoy!

doubleJ's

Proposition: a lot of people are going to the Hospitality Days on Thursday night. So it was suggested to do the class a little earlier. Is anybody opposed to changing the class for 5pm instead of 7:30pm?




Fitness in a 100 words:

■ Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. ■ Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. ■ Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. ■ Regularly learn and play new sports.
