Healthy, Crunchy Asiago Chicken Nugget Recipe Cheese is totally a food group. Like, it’s own food group. It’s inexplicably a salty, savory, melt-in-your-mouth group of food. Remember those big fenced in sections of brightly colored balls you used to play in as a little kid? Or as a teenager? Yeah, first… I think those are pretty gross right? But whatever… just imagine if those things were filled with cheese. If I had to pick a favorite cheese I would cry. Which explains these chicken nuggets! I also make chicken nuggets to make up for my misdoings like that.

Shrink a Size in 14 Days Intrigued by research spotlighting eccentric training as one of the most effective ways to get firm, we asked fitness expert Chris Freytag to create a superfast shape-up exercise routine using this unique technique. When we put a group of readers on the plan, the results were eye-popping: Testers had an average weight loss of 6 pounds and 10 inches in 14 days, with the most successful volunteers losing up to 12 pounds and more than 22 inches all over. The secret is in the program's slow-motion strength routine. Instead of lifting and lowering for 2 counts each, you'll double the lengthening "eccentric" phase of an exercise (i.e., straightening your arm during a biceps curl) to 4 counts. "Each muscle fiber works harder so you get firmer faster," explains Freytag. Get started today with our exclusive jump-start plan* that will help you shed pounds, shrink inches, and feel confident in just 14 days!

Fitness Advice, Workout Videos, Health & Fitness | Bodyrock.tv - StumbleUpon Hi BodyRockers, Today Freddy and I are starting to pack for our move and we are crazy busy. With everything that we have to do today, I didn’t have time for a full workout, but don’t worry because I put together this savage little 6 minute full body routine that will rock you out. I think that it is always better to do something than to skip your training completely, and this workout may come in a small package, but as you can see in the video, if you are pushing it at your max effort – full throttle – you won’t have anything left after 6 minutes. This is a perfect solution if you find yourself really busy and pressed for time – and you can also extend the torture by doing this 2 times back to back. Freddy & I will be back this weekend with new BodyRockers, a new diet challenge and possibly a life post if we actually do anything interesting besides packing! Enjoy your training!
