Kettlebells are roundish, cast iron weights with handles. The center of mass of a kettlebell sits outside your hand, unlike a dumbbell. This makes kettlebells great for full-body swinging exercises. As you swing the kettlebell in different movement patterns, several muscle groups work to control the swing. Start with a light kettlebell until you perfect the form.

MUESLI SLICE | for lunch boxes, snacks or breakfast Ill warn upfront, this is my most lazy and disorganised recipe, yet it is the most important and lifesaving recipe I use every week; an instant snack, a dessert on the fly, breakfast when running late and a lunch box filler that is cheap and healthy. It is also important to note that I make this by throwing ingredients in a bowl until I see the right consistency so amounts are all approximate. Rebel cook!

I came across some beautiful, purple carrots at Harris Farm in Potts Point this morning...it was a bit of a detour on the way home from the market buying the cranberries for these cookies . In fact I had only dropped in to get some organic butter for the cookies but somehow (as usual) walked out with a bag full to the brim of fresh fruit and vegetables. I was most excited about my purple carrots as I had heard that they had double the nutritional value of the orange ones.

wheat free! sugar free! Take-to-Christmas treats

http://www.sarahwilson.com.au/2011/12/lee-holmes-supercharged-foods-cookbook/ A few months back I connected with Lee Holmes who told me she was writing a cookbook. She asked if I’d “endorse it”. For some niggly, gut-based reason I had a very sound feeling about what she was doing…Lee has an autoimmune disease and has healed herself through diet.

paleo coconut flour muffins – sugarfree, of course

I’ve been asked a few times about coconut flour. Is it a grain? Is it starchy? Good for kids quitting sugar? I could’ve mouthed off based on a vague knowledge. http://www.sarahwilson.com.au/2012/01/paleo-coconut-flour-muffins-sugarfree-of-course/
http://cfscceat.blogspot.com/2010/01/paleo-blueberry-coconut-muffins.html Staying at home on stormy days makes me want to bake! But leading this Paleo lifestyle doesn't always make it that easy! But today, I think I found something that works! MUFFINS! They were simple, too! And... they got the "family" approval (which means the kids liked them)... that's HUGE.

Alternative Sleep Cycles: You Don’t Really Need 6-8 Hours!

Most people only think that there is one way to sleep: Go to sleep at night for 6-8 hours, wake up in the morning, stay awake for 16-18 hours and then repeat. Actually, that is called a monophasic sleep cycle , which is only 1 of 5 major sleep cycles that have been used successfully throughout history. The other 4 are considered polyphasic sleep cycles due to the multiple number of naps they require each day.
