The Blender Diet (for gaining weight)

So what to do after you've stopped your routine and fell off from exercising.  You've lost weight and slimmed down and are wanting a change quick and quickly enough to carry your thoughts and motivation into a real physical and mental change.  Well, today we will discuss this.  I've found it easier to go light on the weights and go heavy on how you manage your intake and your output when you begin.  Later on during the next few weeks you start focusing more on weights and muscle building.  Now we want to focus on preparing your body.  Starting over is always difficult however it is possible to do it relatively with ease.

Food:  Blend everything!  These two words are formula that can build you up so quick you won't remember being slim and unmotivated.  I eat a regular breakfast.   Two eggs over easy with grilled tomatoes and onions (sometimes with Bacon or ham).  Big milk fan so I drink a glass or two almost every morning.  Toast with butter (1pc.)....I do not blend my breakfast unless it's cereal however I would my lunch and dinner unless it's a rice meal.  You can blend rice if you want I just enjoy eating rice whole.  Love the stuff.  

Here are some blending ideas for lunch and dinner.  I'm not going to list seasonings however I will hint towards dressings.  Salad dressings don't have to be for just salads.  They are also delicious to use on or with certain foods.  And since we're blending our food we might want that dressing as medium or a neutral flavor.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Blend This

1.)  Cereal & Milk      

 2.)  Mackerel, Mashed Potatoes, Vegetable

        3.)  Egg (2)(Boiled), Pepperoni Stick, Vegetable of some kind (your choice)

      4.)  Pastas can and should be blended if you are on a "Blender Diet".  Also I use bleu cheese salad dressing to flavor it.  I blend the spaghetti with my choice of sauce and then after I add little bit of bleu cheese on top.  I'm a huge fan of spaghetti)

5.)  Fruit (all fruit can be blended)

6.)  Ice cream (blend with cashew nuts, walnuts, sunflower seeds, raw egg [1], fruit or anything else you might want throw in there.)

Remember, the point of this diet since we're trying to gain weight is to blend these foods.  You chew less and the food is worth more because it breaks down in your system better.

7.)  Vegetables with shrimp (you can add butter or another dressing of your choice)

8.) Soups (all your soups can be blended)

9.)  Chicken & Beans (red or black)
Note:  You can even toss in a plantain or two.

10.)  Sandwiches (I love the way a Publix Ultimate Sub taste when it's blended up)

So as you can see the possibilities are delicious.  You can use these ideas or be creative and blend something that your stomach craves.  If you are someone who is distant about making this kind of change, not to worry.   You will eventually find a recipe to blend that will stick with you forever.  Also, right now we can't lose thought about what our goals are.  We are trying to gain weight as quickly as possible so in the beginning it might be tough but in the end the benefits are endless.  

-Managing Our Blending Diet With Our Training Schedule-

We know what we're eating on our "Blender Diet" so now let's talk about how to manage this diet into growth and muscle instead of it turning into fat.  The spectrum of this diet can go both ways.  It's an extreme platform.  By this I mean blending your foods can make you fat or extremely strong.  Now instead of me writing down every exercise I'm going to give you some ideas through some videos I've made.  There simple but they are effective.

You have to remember that since you are blending foods instead of eating them whole your body is breaking them down as you tell it to.  You do not want to be sitting around on this type of diet.  You will get fat.  So, Cardio (jogging, running, up-downs, swimming, etc.).  I suggest you jog every other day or every other two days to encourage these nutrients to absorb into the right places.  Weight lifting depends on how you feel in the beginning.  Try to fit some weight training in but don't push yourself too hard and remember to lift responsibly.

Sport Workout: The Neck

Hello everybody!  Today I want to talk about the neck.  I've written exercises that help stretch and strengthen the neck however today I want to go into further detail about the structure itself and follow it up with an extreme exercise that will ultimately help build your neck.  However before we can build up a structure we should understand what that structure consists of.

The neck has 5 main muscles:
  • Cervical
  • Suprahyoid
  • Infrahyoid  (Also known as the "Strap")
  •  Vertebral  (Also known as the "Anterior")
  • Lateral  (larapilo muscle)
Each of these 5 main muscles that make up the neck have their own counter-parts.

The Cervical can be broken down into two muscle parts.  The Platysma and the Sternocleidomastoid.

The Suprahyoid can be broken down into four muscle parts.  The Digastric, Stylohyoid, Mylohyoid, Genionhyoid.

The Infrahyoid (Also known as the "Strap" muscles) can be broken down into four muscle parts.  The Sternohyoid, Sternothyroid, Thyrohyoid, Omohyoid.

The Vertebral (Also known as the "Anterior") can be broken down into four muscle parts.  The Longus Colli, Longus Capitis, Rectus Capitis Anterior, Rectus Capitis Lateralis.

The Lateral  (Also known as the "Larapilo" muscle) can be broken down into four muscle parts.  The Scalene, Anterior, Medius, Posterior.

Everyone of these muscle structures can be strengthened to give us the figure we are looking for.  Now that we understand what muscles the neck structure consists of we can start to build these muscles safely.  Below I have detailed an exercise that is effective because it focuses not only on the muscles main parts but also on the muscles counter-parts.

Let's begin;

First thing you want to do is stand with your feet shoulder width apart with your hands on your hips like in figure A.



Next you want to tilt your head to the left, like in figure B.


Now Rotate your head forward and to the right like in figure C & D.


You should rotate your head in one movement.


Now with your head tilted to the right continue rotating tilting your head back and then to the left ending up back in starting position.  Figure A, B, C, D, E below.


Repeat this stretch 10 to 15 times in one direction and then switch and rotate 10 to 15 times in the other direction.  

The next exercises are focused on strengthening the neck.

Addicting Games: Free Ones Available

Addicting Games: Look No More!

It's not hard to find addicting games online. As it turns out, if you do a little research you can find exactly what you are looking for. I started this game online about a week ago and I still can't get enough of it. There are actually a few of them out there. Of course I usually only play them when I'm at work or at home and when I'm on a desktop but still these are addicting games.
At the end of this article I will provide you with a link to a website that has a list of the top free addicting games online today. They have every genre of game possible. These games have great story lines, friendly graphics and easy keyboard control systems. Before finding this game website I found myself getting boggled up by all the other gaming websites. They either had really bad games and I mean at least there weren't any addicting games or their website was too difficult to enter, navigate and play.
I not only write articles but I also write a fitness & nutrition blog and it features sport exercises, nutritional tips, as well as games. And the list that I've compiled is what seems to be the best top online games that are free right now. There is everything from shooting games, fighting games, fishing, etc. And I mean these are really addicting games. Sure you can skip to the bottom of the article or click on the following link if you want and get over to my blog (My Weave) and start playing. The first page you'll be transferred to is the "Game Categories" page. After you've selected the category you're interested in you'll be sent the "Game Selections" page. From there you pick the game you want to play and click "Play Now". It's as easy as 1-2-3.
So What do I look for in addicting games?
Well...For really good addicting games I look for action, suspense (I like to be on the edge of my seat while I'm playing), a good story line, friendly graphics and an easy keyboard control system. These are all good ways to asses how a game really is and whether or not a game is for only a moment or if it will stand the test of time. Again the hardest thing about finding these addicting games is picking through all those other gaming websites out there that we are trying so hard to steer clear of.

Hope you enjoyed this article and I hope you leave my some comments on the "Category Page" of my blog. I would love to hear your feed back of what you think so I can make it easier to help people. Just follow the link:http://myweave.blogspot.com
