Yes....Yes....It's here......Recipes!

Yes.....Its finally here. I am starting to post recipes as well. These recipes are ones that are:

1) Tasty!
2) Healthy and Nutritious
3) Easy

I am starting off with one I made this afternoon (so you could say its straight hot off the oven!). Its Stir Fry Cauliflower / Gobi.

Ingredients:

1) Cauliflower (Gobi)
2) Onion (chopped)
3) Chopped Garlic (medium sized pod)
4) Coriander
5) Turmeric

I usually like to use a non-stick teflon pan.Throw in the cauliflower in a low flame and let it warm up. Add a bit of olive oil and start to lightly roast the cauliflower. At this point add salt and pepper and keep stirring. Add a pinch of turmeric at this point. Stir till it mixes well.Add the onions and garlic. Stir till the onions and garlic are fried. Finally add coriander leaves and stir till it gets lightly crispy and then its done. The last step is ENJOY!!! There you have it folks......my version of stir fry cauliflower.

The 'Striker' has returned....

Hey Guys,

I am back on my blog once again. I did take a long time as I took a long time out and had a look at my life workouts and where I was headed. I have unlearned a lot and learnt a lot (and still learning!).
This break really made me take a long hard look at my life. My training mode has definitely changed.

A little bit on things that changed. I was out with a horrible shoulder injury (supraspinitis tendonitis). The good side to that was I was able to diagnose it on my own and start treating before I went for a second opinion to the doctor. He didn't tell me anything new but actually enjoyed talking it out with me (Also I got one of my relief gels free!) I started to learn how to rehab the shoulder. I thank God for the wisdom he gave me to do it.

Also I did get through my Nutrition exams. My certificates and license will be arriving shortly. So I have been looking at ways to clean up my diet and get some tasty recipes out and yes I will be starting out with recipes and pics of those soon!

The biggest change was a mental transition from just being into fitness to going back to study strength and conditioning for athletes to the business professional and home makers. Going forward I will be dealing with strength and conditioning and also physique training. I also broke my weight barrier and came out from a stagnated 92 kgs to 89kgs.

Guys, I can honestly say that whatever I put out here or do in training I have experimented on myself first. My blog aims to give firsthand information of something that is tried and tested so you can make the fastest gains to a healthier lifestyle.........
