Welcome to the KitchGym!
I am excited to share my new idea with you! By now, we all know, being healthy is more than just hitting the gym 5 days a week, or keeping up with the latest fad diet. Being healthy starts in your home, typically, in the kitchen. You want to try the latest fitness craze? Great! But it's important to learn how to fuel your body properly before you hit the gym. How and where do you start?! At the KitchGym, of course, where we "build stronger meals"!
It's time to flex your muscles in the kitchen! At the KitchGym, you will learn some basic cooking techniques, things to stock up on; like pantry staples, spices, and fridge/freezer items, and we will mix in some "hot topics" like what oils to use when you are cooking, and what really is the difference in all of the salt choices. You will find a few sprinkles of recipes, but mostly this is about knowledge and technique, as healthy recipes are everywhere on the internet. Your workout starts at the kitchen table.
As for the "gym" part of the KitchGym, I want to explore and share with you the diets that people keep when they are extreme athletes. I find the discipline of these folks amazing! From bodybuilding to endurance races, it's fascinating how different these diets can be. While you may never wish to be a competitive athlete, I think it's important to understand how these types of eating plans affect performance. Along the same lines, I will help you break down the different fitness programs that are so popular, like Crossfit.
The KitchGym is still under construction.
