zea2Ingredients: 500 g Zea flour, 300g warm water (2 parts cold and one hot), 1 sachet of dry yeast, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp salt, a little sesame
Preparation:
  • In a large bowl pour 2 tbsp of flour, all the water, the yeast, the sugar, stir and let the mixture for 15 minutes until it gets frothy. Keep a small glass of flour for later

  • 5 minutes before you put the dough in the pan, turn the oven to 180 degrees, put in a clay pot with a little water and leave it throughout the cooking. It will help the baking process.

Sculpt your back with just two dumbbells

Sculpt your back with just two dumbbells!
 
 
Lots of people ask me – “How can I get a sculpted back without all the equipment at the gym?” Now granted, I’m a huge fan of all the different back machines; the rows and cables and pulldowns, etc. However you don’t need a gym membership or a lot of fancy equipment to carve out an amazing back! Today I’m sharing 6 of my favorite dumbbell back exercises to shape, sculpt, Tone and Tighten! Here we go!

I guess first of all we need some dumbbells. Personally for this type of workout where I usually need a variety of different weights there’s nothing better than this adjustable set my wife gave me for Christmas last year. They adjust from 2-52.5 pounds and are my favorite piece of at-home equipment.
 
The Workout
 
Bent over rows (braced)
Start kneeling on a bench with one knee and bracing yourself with one hand. The dumbbell is in the opposite hand. Use your back muscles to row the dumbbell into your chest and slowly return to starting position.
3 sets of 10 on each arm
048_Bent_Over_Row

 
Dead lifts
Great for the lower back! Stand erect with the dumbbells gripped in your hands. Keep your back straight, shoulders back, and head high as you slowly lower the weights to the floor. Return to starting position. (Watch form on this one!)
3 sets of 10
dumbbell dead lift
 
 
 
Bent over row
No bracing this time – use your lower back muscles to keep you erect. Bend slightly at the hips, keep your back straight, and pull the dumbbells up into your chest.
3 sets of 10
bent over row
 
 
 
Seated rear flys
Great sculptor for the upper back. Sit on the edge of a bench/chair and lean forward at your hips/lower back (chest almost rests in your lap). Maintain only a slight bend in your elbow as you pull the weights back behind you.
3 sets of 10
seated rear deltoid fly
 
 
 
Shrug with retraction
My favorite for the upper trapezius. Stand erect with the dumbbells at your side. Pull your shoulders up towards your ears and then pinch your shoulder blades together. slowly return to starting position.
3 sets of 10
dumbbell shrug
 
 
 
Renegade row
One of my all-time favorite at-home exercises. Assume the push-up position on the floor holding on to a pair of dumbbells. Row one weight up to your chest and then slowly lower it to the starting position. Repeat with the other side.
3 sets of 10 on each arm.
renegade row
 
 
Congratulations! You nailed it!
See, I told you two dumbbells was all you need!

Tahini Banana Paleo Pancakes

Notes

Look for tahini on the shelves of your local health food store, often stocked next to the nut butters. Or if you're feeling inspired, make your own using this tahini recipe.
Paleo Pancake Recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 large ripe banana
2 tablespoons tahini
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
1/4 cup mixed fresh berries (optional)

Directions

  1. In a frying pan over medium-low heat, toast the sesame seeds, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and golden brown, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the banana with a fork. Add the tahini, eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon, and mix until well combined.
  3. In the same frying pan over medium heat, warm the two tablespoons of olive oil until hot but not smoking. For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and cook until bubbles start to form on top of the batter, two to three minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, 2-3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, working in batches and adding more oil as necessary.

Best Ab Workout – The Plan

Best Ab Workout – The Plan
Here’s my basic philosophy on working out your abs. Depending on your workout program and lifestyle, you have 2 general options for ab workouts. The first is to work out your abs in short bursts on a frequent basis (for example, every other day). The second option is to have full, dedicated ab workouts once or twice a week (like any other muscle group).
I tend to go with the second option myself, but both can be equally effective. This workout is designed based on the second perspective – it’s a full length, dedicated abdominal and core workout that will get you seeing fast results.
The total workout takes approximately 30 minutes, and depending on how well equipped you are, most could be done at home or at the gym.
When it comes to sets and reps, you want to max out your energy expenditure and exhaust your abdominal muscles as much as possible. In most cases, aiming for 20-30 reps will be sufficient, but listen to your body! Everyone is different.
I’m also going to give you the option of doing between 2 and 3 sets of each exercise. If you’re a beginner or short on time, 2 may be a good starting point. But your ultimate goal should be 3 sets each exercise for this workout.
