NSV at the gym
Managed to squat 3 plates for the first time in over ten years. The last time I did that I was a young 20 something hitting the gym 6 days a week. Not bad for pushing 40. My back might not like me tomorrow though. And yes I was using a belt.

Painful lesson learned
Many years ago my recovery from leg day was usually pretty painful. I discovered how to fix my problem was doing some cardio after. Spending only 10 minutes on the stair climber was enough to burn off all the lactic acid from my Quads and Hamstrings (my two biggest muscles groups). I wasn't really interested in treadmills…

Shortening

Teriyaki Marinated Chicken
I make a teriyaki marinade for chicken and beef. Its equal parts sugar and soy sauce (at least one cup), garlic and ginger. One cup of soy has a really large sodium content. Since I'm only marinading my chicken for a couple days would it still have such a high sodium content?

Eating when your not hungry
I have a night job on week-ends so I usually sleep in on week-ends also. This means I loose about 1/4 of my day. I usually eat three healthy meals a day. However some of my meals, like my dinner this past week, have a low calorie count. I made chicken breasts, zucchini, tomatoes and corn. Healthy and filling, but only 360…

Homemade soup
How do I calculate calories, carbs etc for homemade soup. If I enter a new recipie it asks for how many people it serves. I just make a big pot and have a cup at a time. There are already tons of homemade soups in the data base already.
