Avocado Superfood Smoothie

No comments :
Have you ever put avocados in a smoothie? If you haven't, avocados make them extra creamy and thick. If you add a bunch of other fruit, you'll never taste the addition. I'm not a person who generally drinks smoothies for breakfast (they never fill me up!) but this one, with the protein, antioxidants, greens and FRUIT will keep me satisfied til lunch.  And yes, I told Casey it had an avocado (right after he finished!) and I got the WHAAAAAAT?!!  Told you, I'm sneaky.

The Myth About Lifting Weights

No comments :
For those of you who steer clear of the weights for fear of developing a masculine physique, here’s a little secret: lifting weights will not make you look like the She-Hulk. The reason is very simple and answers many questions asked of a woman: hormones. Women are simply not built to support a bulky physique. Unless she trains specifically for bulk, a woman will not naturally develop muscle that makes her big. According to WebMD, this is because women have only 5-10 percent of the testosterone levels that men do, meaning they have less of the hormone that develops bigger muscles. Because adding a lot of muscle is about testosterone production, women just don’t have the genetic make-up for it to come easy.
