Fit and Strong, Recipes

A friend made me this curry popcorn one year for my birthday. I thought it was the best snack food I’d had in a long time so I asked her for the recipe. She made a copy for me and I made it several times. Then, as life happens, I moved and boxed everything up and didn’t unpack things as well as I packed. I was looking for this recipe and couldn’t find it. Recently I opened a box I’d stored in the closet in my office and there was the recipe for curry popcorn. I got the munchies just thinking about this popcorn. The funny thing is that I wrote a lengthy list of healthy snacks in an earlier blog post but I didn't mention popcorn...

Yuka App Review

Fit and Strong, Food and Drink

When I heard about the Yuka app I thought it was something to do with Yuka plants, but that is something different. I am trying an app called Yuka that is supposed to help you make the right choices for your health by deciphering product labels and analyzing the health impact of food products and cosmetics. Right off the bat, I realized the food without a label is most likely 100% whole food (apples, bananas, etc) and therefore gets a great rating. But I was curious if it would help me figure out some of the other things I eat...

Looking for a delicious zucchini casserole recipe? A few weeks ago I mentioned that my zucchini plants were doing well. Wow, the zukes are coming in strong now. A special thank you to Marcia Allen who posted a couple of great recipes in the comment sections of that post yesterday. I tried the casserole and am posting my step by step photos here. Immediately I realized I don't have the right cheese (Shredded Parmesan or Asiago Cheese), but I did have just a bit of a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese to add to it. When I make it again, I'm going to use the right cheese because I know it'd be even better! First I cut the zucchini into round slices, The sprayed some olive oil onto the...

Building Muscle, Fit and Strong, Work Outs

We’ve talked a lot about strength training guidelines for adults on our podcast. I thought I’d provide a quick recap of those guidelines and give you some ideas on how to get in quality strength workouts. Strength Training Guidelines According to the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), healthy adults should perform strength training at least twice a week on non-consecutive days. Each session should include 8 to 10 repetitions that stress each of the major muscle groups or 10 to 15 repetitions for those who are older and frail. If you go with longer repetitions, you’ll use lighter weight. You can certainly train more than twice a week but you want to make sure you cover all of the major muscle groups at least twice a week. So,...
