World of Fitness Threw a Chefs Eye

On a diet note at work we are expanding are organic bakeshop program to 80 percent of your production.  We made a major breakthrough yesterday.  After much trial and a lot of error we solved the protein contain of organic flour issue .  Organic flour has about 15 percent less protein then regular flour. This protein when mixed gives you gluten when cooked it becomes hard and firm. This keep you cake from falling. So we took out the whole egg and add 100 percent egg white therefore increasing the protein container. This was the 41 time we made this recipe and NOW it works.  We also are doing stealth health, cutting out Tran’s fats, simple sugar and just extra calories. The whole goal is to make thing health , have lot of flavor and let the kid be none the wiser.  So the working out can help you in all more of life

Well one week down for just a cardio and leg workout. MY chest is feeling about 85 percent better so one more week will not kill me, But at my gym the cardio machine are all up stair overlooking the weight room.  I just look down there and think how great it would be to get back to feeling the pump of the weight.  Peoples say that it is not a rush I disagree you feel something inside that is hard to explain to someone who does not work out.

My older boys have started their summer workouts for soccer with the new high school coach. The last one was BAD didn’t care and lacked discipline.  The new coach the first day set the tone he said “that if is you are 15 early you are on time, on time you are late, late GO HOME”. How this guy I LIKE.  Cardio training 3 day a week at 6:00 am or 5:45 if you are on time.  They had to Chelsea’s or herbe’s in hockey. They had to wall sit for 6 minutes.  Kid came home one said killer workout (the hockey player) the other (play station pro) was cry it was too hard.

Well I check my body space page today and someone left me a comment about how I was a role model.  I said who me?  I usually say that to other people.  That was a great feeling that shoot threw my whole body, it was like working out at the gym.  Some time it is hard to see that you are making improvement when you look at yourself every day and only look to see what you can improve on.  That is way this is a great site that everyone and anyone can motivate people.  I feel better that the day before that I am a winner.  When to a meeting today not in a chef coat and everyone said I looked great and complemented me on how well I looked.  I think that it is time to go buy some new clothes. Still have to shop and the big and tall men’s store but now just have to think about the TALL not the BIG.  Maybe it is time for a new pair of 38 jeans can’t remember the last time that number came into my mind.

My chest is feeling better but it is tempting to go back to lifting weight another 10 day before I even try. Have been doing a lot of cardio and leg shaking lower body workouts.  My leg are looking good just need to work on the inner thigh area (there we go again with what is not good)

I stopped feeling sorry for myself and did a long cardio workout today and felt great dit 95 minutes on level 5 on the cross fit incline. I was watching the tour de france now those guy ride day in day out today stage was 357 KM. Just watching those guys go at 55 KM per hour for over 6 hour is sick. 

was making great progress in the gym over the last few weeks.  After warmin gup today I felt a pain in my chest muscle on the side. Boy it hurts think a pulled something so need to let it rest for about a week DAMMMMMMM. So all is not lost Cardio and rocking leg workouts soild for a week and we will see how i feel after that back to light workouts

GOT ON THE SCALE ATE THE GYM AND IT SAW 250 GOT OFF AND ON AGAIN AND STILL 250.  tIME FOR A NEW GOAL. 

well i think that my kid are starting to change their diet.  we when shopping for the fourth of july bbq at BJ.  I thould the kid to get some burger meat  and they came back with ground turkey??" we like this better" ok I said. next to the breakfast cereral "let get go lean chrunch" they said. so ther is hope with these younger kids yet.  they comlained every day about the school food so I call the board of education to talk to them about ther food standards they said who is this guy and what does this guy know about food. I then explained to they who i was and executive chef at the major ivy leasgue school in new haven.  I now had they attention i said i would help then design a better menu for the kid and it will not cost anymore than they where presently pay.  they said how i have contact with local farmers to would sell they product to they threw at majr product supplier they already used. we would inform the kid as to where the real food was coming from.  Kid want to eat food that tastes good if it is food for them great. We call thsi Stealth Health"

I seem like my diet goes well for about 2 weeks then my body gets to know what is going on. I upped my carb to 40 % proteein to 45% and fat to 15 % all seemed well then I saw that i was puttin a little fat around the mid section gained about 4 pound carp this has to stop so i am going back to my 60 % protein 20% carb and 20% fat and slowly add carbs to see how that works.  this is what worked in the past for me. 

On a different matter my 15 year old son thought that dad workout was bullshit and his was much better.  So after talking to him he though it would be easy to complete the old mans workout as he call it.  The first day was chest did my warm up set and got to my first working set the weight was 225 and he said you are going to start with that?  Yes I am no problem 6 rep.  my last set was 245 for 6 reps the 3 set of 12 rep dropping 20 pound each time.  After we lifted weight we did HIIT cardio 21 minutes 90 on 90 off then abs. 

the next day i could see that he was a little sore but said that it was easy.  What was the workout for today?  I said leg and the look that I got was a little scary.  This workout kick the crap out my leg so after your leg workout he said that the old mans workout was MUCH better than his.  He would like to workout with me at 4:30 every morning to get ready for the hockey season.
