Awesomefication - building strength takes guts!

What makes them x-rated? I hear you say! Well, one, they look downright sexy. And two, the noises you make when you eat it will be x-rated ;) Surfing around on Pinterest looking for some new breakfast recipes to try I came across a few variations of baked eggs. Some are called Turkish eggs, others use Moroccan spice mixes to add extra depth of flavour. The dish is really versatile so you can adapt the flavours to suit what you fancy. I made mine a spicy breakfast version which you could easily make for dinner as well. Rich and moreish  it is packed full of protein, low on calories, filling, and super tasty. It's a winner all round. This is my recipe for 2 portions. Bear in mind that you can chop and change ingredients for what you have available: 3 muscle food chicken chilli sausages  Handful frozen onion Handful frozen peppers Half can haricot beans Carton of passata Half tsp frozen chopped garlic Tsp paprika Tsp Sriracha (use chilli or chilli...

Training only requires me to make a couple of simple choices, showing up is the first. How much effort and how hard I am going to work is the second .

Am I going to go for the family size bag of crisps and to hell with the calorie deficit for the next five days? Or am I going to go for the regular 25g packet and just have a little indulgence? Am I going to reduce how much ...

I luuuurvve pizza! Up until a few months ago we used to order a pizza from the takeaway at least once a week. Garlic bread mozzarella stuffed crust, bbq sauce, pepperoni, chicken, crispy bacon, onions, pepper, extra cheese ... my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Needless to say it was one of the weekend rituals I ditched when I started to make changes to my nutrition and fitness regimen, and I missed it like crazy. But at 2000 kcals a pizza it was basically a no go area and I wasn't willing to test my self restraint at stopping after a single slice! So elimination was the only option. However, I have started experimenting and by making my own at home with a few tweaks, pizza is back on the menu. It can be a healthy option that feels indulgent. I now have a new Saturday night ritual, coming up with new topping combinations! Check out the video and method below for more info: For the base I used Musclefood's high protein gluten free pizza bases (300 kcal...
