Gluten Free Flax Granola, brown rice crispies, coconut yogurt, Banana, and Pineapple
A couple of Granocca clusters and a Chocolate Amazing Grass shake.
Broccoli Slaw and Squash Cajun stir Fry with Tempeh and Bison Sausage. Can you guess what’s on the right?
That would be savory gluten free oats/grits. I used Brewers Yeast, Garlic, and a little almond cheese. It’s heaven on a plate. For REAL!
You bet I licked that plate, so did the hubs!
And now for my version of WIAW. How about WIWW?
(WHAT I WORKED WEDNESDAY)
Here’s a quick Tabbata work out. I did this after a short run.
- Warm Up (5 minute jog, elliptical, jump rope, etc.)
- Do these exercise for 20 seconds as fast or as hard as you can then rest for 10 seconds in between sets. Repeat each exercise set 3-4x.
- Squat hops
- Divebombers (see video here)
- Snowboarders (aka surfers)
- Single leg half squats (think small pulses for the half squat)
- Ab tucks (remember, as many as you can do in 20 sec.)
- plié squat with hammer curl
- One arm press up (do each side 3-4x)- You can see an example in this video.
- 20 seconds of hill sprints (elliptical, treadmill, outside stairs).
- Try to walk after that. haha! No really, cool down and stretch.
Cheers,
LC
P.S.

freakin hard though. But you gotta love that burn!

The grits are my new favorite. The brewers yeast adds lots of protein/iron and

Note to self- schedule a recovery run after a tabbata session, not a tempo run.
haha! Legs were burning. haha!

oh I can't wait for you to give this a go. Let me know how you are feeling, etc!

Mmmmm breakfast looks delish. I think I'd stink at posting my meals/eats for the day. You reminded me I should pick up some more broccoli slaw. Love that stuff.
I kind of want you to be my personal trainer. But I kind of don't. I can't imagine how sore I would be.
Your yogurt mix looks delish! I am munching one right now :)
I would be an awful food blogger. I get too excited about my food to take pictures! lol
Your eats look delicious. I love using broccoli slaw in my hot & cold dishes. Good crunchy texture. Good luck to James at training camp!
I think taking the time to photog the eats makes you eat more mindfully. But man. How do the do it evry day! Mouth watering, stomach growl...food getting cold. LOL.
I'm so eager to see more ways you use your Brewer's yeast...can we come up with a cutsie name? Brewst? Brewch?
haha, thats why its so hard for me too. I get way too excited I forget to take a
picture before I might into it!
;)
Lindsay

Its a good sore. And we would have too much fun! lots of good belly laughs!

Oh broccoli slaw, best invention ever. Goes with everything!
Lindsay
________________________________
haha, I was just thinking about that. So if we call nutrtional yeast nooch, does
that mean brewers yeast is booch?
;)
Lindsay

I know, broccoli slaw is a life saver for dinners and other fixins. Wish they
sold it in bulk at Costco! Wish I was going with him to training camp, but maybe
I'll come up to Dallas while he's gone.
:)
Lindsay

smriti
I'm definitely working up to Tabata in my living room. Definitely. Except that I want to start making use of my expensive gym... OK: re-think---I'm definitely working up to some Tabata at the gym. Definitely. Thanks for the inspiration! :) I love seeing what others do for a workout. Does that make me an exercise voyeur?
I am scared of savory oats... but I'm down with savory grits. WTF? ;)
I did my first REAL tabata workout on my trainer tonight... wow! So fun and so hard
DANG! lucky winner!!!!!
i LOVE SAVORY oats- so flippin good.. i just ate my sweet breakki oats actually and they wre HEAVEN
All your food looks delish! =D
I LOVE tabata workouts! Thanks for posting it!

great idea! I will do that with my spin class on Friday. Oh boy, too fun!
Lindsay
________________________________
oh we must change that!! I will pay you to try savory oats. You will love them.
Just add some DAIYA and Nutiritonal yeast. For real! I'll bribe you with some
healthy bites to give them a whirl. hehe!
Lindsay

I'm all about being a voyeur! Go for it. Whatever gets ya moving. hehe!
;)
Lindsay

I think its just orange because of the lighting. Although, I did use coconut
milk and a little extra coffee this time, so maybe it changes the color? That
and banana. Delish!
Lindsay

YUMMY NOMS! I love nothing more than meals with a ton of color in them!
Congrats, Nellie!
I want to EAT your breakfafast!! Looks so darn YUMMY!! And that tabbata workout looks kick-ass!! Have to try that soon!! :D
You torture me with photos, I want your food! HAHA!!!!!!! Thanks for encouraging me.. I've got some serious blahs.. sigh. I hope it's gone come Saturday.
I am so interested in the savory oats. They look delicious!
Workout looks awesome too - I haven't ever done a tabata training but I'm thinking this is something I must try!
Love WIAW ! Very awesome :) I just learned about Tabbata workouts in my kines. class!!
you and the hubs eat so deliciously!!!! i am very jealous - my diet routine is boring as heck!
You are making me hungry, good photos!
I agree! Its hard for me to eat anything without color. so boring!
Lindsay

Who makes this coconut yogurt you speak of?! I need to know.
What?! NO way, you eat lobster mac and cheese, thats not boring!! Thats
deliciousness on a plate. Hope the tummy is better.
;)
Lindsay
________________________________
Can we work out together? PLEASE?! I love that workout you posted! It'd be way more fun to do with a friend. ;)
I don't think I'd be successful at WIAW- I eat too much and too many different random things. I'd be taking pictures just about every 5 minutes. lol ;)
I need those oats! OOOOH yum! And SO weird you ate that yesterday since yesterday morning I made vegan cheesy oats JUST like that- but without garlic and added turmeric. SO freakin' good!
Nora,
I feel ya! I have the blahs too. But I feel 10x better when I can encourage
somone else. Saturday will be great! I can feel it!
Lindsay

girl we are so alike! It was so hard for me to do this because I am a random
eater. I like variety! But I did what I could. haha! And yes, this work out
would be awesome with a friend. I did it with my bootcamp class. too fun!
Lindsay

Oh I'm so glad that are teaching that in KINE. I bet you'd like it with your
running!

Jen,
I am so suprised you have tried savory oats. Its right up your alley! Kinda like
cheesey grits but whole grain and dairy free. I like them better than grits,
hehe.
Let me know if you try out the tabata's!
Lindsay

Ha, "no really, cool down and stretch". That's actually a reminder I need more often than not!! That's why Yoga does wonders for me, it's a forced stretch....and I love it ;)
I love the spin - what I WORKED Wednesday! that's something I could get in the habit of blogging. ;)
Love that you pack up goodies for your husband. You Proverbs 31 woman, you! :)
Don't you dare start thinking about an alternate! I won my balls fair & square :) or fair and round. As long as you're making them, I don't care what shape they are!
Gonna work on an address for you to use. Maybe the dude in the big house will hold them for me. So don't make them sniff too good. Don't want him breaking the law & opening my mail.
Email coming soon with details!
I'm saving them for you! No one else!! Maybe you should just drive to austin,
haha!

Love all your video links! I've been using them!! :)
I will definitely have to try this workout! Looks awesome!!
That looks like a killer good workout!!! I'll have to try it... maybe :)
I tried to do some of those divebombers. Wow, so hard!
