Spice Rubs and Marinades
What are rubs, brines and marinades and how are they used?
Answer: Spice rubs, marinades and brines are some of my favourite cooking practices using everyday. It’s the opportunity where any cook can be creative in manipulating the texture,
tenderness and most importantly, flavour of meat. They can also help transform tougher cuts of meat into a melt-in-your-mouth meal, plus they are easy to make.

COLD WEATHER SAFETY

If your clients live in a region that fully experiences the four seasons, cold, snowy weather creates opportunities for special winter workouts, such as Snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, ice-skating on a frozen pond, sledding, hiking, and skijoring.

Most women would rather eat nails than try on a bikini under the soul-crushing glare of dressing-room lights. But shopping for jeans can be almost as traumatizing. Unlike slipping into a skimpy two-piece that lets everything hang out, shimmying into a pair of jeans means squeezing everything in.

The moves here are meant to build
and define your backside, strengthen and flatten your core, and blast fat toslim your legs.

You can’t lose weight and keep it off



The sad reality is that you have about as great a chance of losing
weight and keeping it off as you do of winning the lottery. This is
just a simple fact of life. Everybody knows it. Every magazine article and
television show on the topic gives the same facts: 95% of diets fail, and
for those who do lose weight, it’s just about guaranteed that they’ll gain
it all back. When the media interviews experts who study weight loss
for a living, they all say this is true.

Myths and Weight Loss

Myths are a part of every society and culture. They help explain common
experiences that are mysterious, frightening, or difficult to understand.
Ancient civilizations used myths to explain aspects of the world
that they could not comprehend. Joseph Campbell, author of the book
The Power of Myth, explains that we need myths to survive and to
explain and understand our existence.
Myths are powerful. They can inspire us to great heights. But they
can also become traps when they mask the full truth. If you go beyond
the kernel of truth that forms the basis of the myth and believe that
every aspect of the myth is true, you can become paralyzed into inaction
because the myth seemingly explains everything.
