Dumbbell Workout

I've posted a few workout ideas over the years and this year I plan to do more, to help the people out there who need workout ideas, especially sessions you can do at home, with minimal equipment. The workout below will just require you to have two dumbbells. The ability to interchange the weights to suit the different exercises would be great, but not necessary if you don't have them available. If you feel like an exercise is a little too easy with the dumbbells you have, increase the repetitions you do. If the weight is too heavy, decrease the repetitions.

Surviving the Festive Season

We have officially hit the festive season! For many, the Christmas period is a time filled with parties and other social gatherings, which often involve lots of food and alcohol, including Christmas Day itself! It's not surprising then, that research shows that weight gain over the festive season is a major contributor to excess yearly weight gain, especially for people who are already carrying more weight than they would like.

Exercise with a Fun Purpose

Lifting weights for hours each day is pretty easy for me. Not easy in terms of actually doing it (sometimes it takes my whole physical and mental strength to get the work done) but in just getting myself in to the gym to do my session. I never give myself the option of not doing it, it just doesn't enter my mind. I enjoy lifting. But doing anything cardio related, that is a whole other story!

Berry Omelette Recipe

I love omelettes. I have at-least one every day, sometimes two! I love both savoury and sweet ones. You name the fruit or vegetable and I could almost guarantee you that it could go in an omelette! Using a mixture of a full egg and egg whites, omelettes can be a nutritious high protein, low fat meal.
