Cheat Meal of the Week (Craving #8)

CUPCAKES

Don’t cupcakes just make you want to YAY. Well these little goodies remind me grade school when the birthday boy or girl would bring in cupcakes from their parents to eat with their classmates during recess. I would always wonder how smart it was to bring in individual cupcakes to give each classmate one cupcake each instead of brining in a full cake and having to hand out plates, fork and cutting the cake for 30 classmates. Smart teachers, Smart. Well Memories of childhood remind me of how old im getting and how fast time flies. Till then. Enjoy.

Fitness Tips

1. The stance for dead lifts is similar to squats that are your feet are just slightly wider than shoulder width apart.

2. The first muscles to engage on the dead lift should be your legs.

3. You should always work out whole body exercises first: Squats, Dead lifts, Dynamic Pushups, Pull Ups.

4. Never round out when you are performing squats and dead lifts.

5. Don’t negate your core, practice core exercises such as single leg dead lifts, hip extension, external rotation, planks.. etc….

6. When performing proper squats, stick your butt out.

7. If you are having trouble maintaining your balance during a squat, place 2 5 pound plates under your heels and perform the exercise.

8. If you also need help having a straight back position use a dow rod to practice proper form.

9. Increase the difficult of a barbell curl by curling the barbell on one arm.

10. HIRE DANNY LAM AS YOUR PERSONAL TRAINER AND FITNESS COACH…. Remember the first workout is free. if you like it GREAT. it will be a start of a good relationship, if not it’s ok you still got a free workout. so just talk to me, try out a free session and we can go from there, and BTW check out the training videos on my Facebook to see the variety and types of workouts I create for my clients.

Weekly Roundup Week of 12.01.09

Starting this week and updated every Fridays, I will add a weekly roundup post where I will blog on the following topics: NPTI update, a Fitness Def., CNN, MMA, Sports, Life and random Fact of the week.

UPDATE: I did not update last week as I was in NYC for the thanksgiving holiday but here it is for the week my friends.

NPTI Updates- Going well and 2 months down, 4 more to go till graduation, cant wait. But yeah I’m learning something new every day and I feel so much more confident about fitness in general than I was when I first started at NPTI. Good ish.

Calorie- The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water one degree Celsius, (Kilocalorie)

CNN- A crazy man shot and killed 4 cops in Washington State while they were at a coffee, crazy news also a little update it is being reported that the cops have found the suspect and killed him.

MMA- December will be a big month of MMA, this Saturday UF finale, then UFC 107, then WEC 45 and Strike force: Le Vs. Smith, then Dream New year’s show. Craziness and yayness for me.

Sports- Tiger Woods Drama, enough said, I don’t care but the whole world does, they love drama drama.

Life- Went to Bj’s with my mom, it was a good trip we got to talk and it was a conversation, but one thing that almost killed it was when we was waiting in line a lady cut us, and I said excuse me but we was here first, then the bitch yells at us and Na Uh I was here first right behind there people.
Seriously it not that important people, we need to stop getting mad over little things. I just let it go but still it crazy how we wasn’t even being aggressive and we see the one who cut us but gave us the attitude wow.

Tiger Woods is half African American and half Thai.
