Getting Ready to Get in Shape This Autumn

For many people, the summer is the most active season, thanks to time off from work, days at the beach, and a diet that’s more full of fresh fruit and vegetables. However, for many people, especially those in warmer climates, the summer can be too hot to work out as often as they would like to, especially if their workout of choice is running in the great outdoors or playing sports outside. Luckily, now that the fall season is approaching, the weather is often just right for working out. Are you ready to get in shape this autumn?

Stop Being Ashamed of Your Cellulite

ATTENTION MOST WOMEN, SOME MEN: STOP BEING ASHAMED OF YOUR CELLULITE.

Our society has many body-shaming problems and a big one is cellulite. Yes, cellulite, that dimpling of the skin in fattier areas. Guess what, it doesn’t mean you have a bad body, are fat, or that you need to do anything about it. Women, mostly, are ashamed to have it, yet 90% of women have it! It’s yet another impossible societal standard that people are kept to. And guess what, it’s nearly impossible to remove because it’s so natural to how our cells are formed. I am so sick of people (especially women) being embarrassed of it. Perfectly fit people have it–I have it! 90% of women!

Be the Wonder Woman for all women! Stop caring about cellulite!

The Shortcut to Making Mango Sticky Rice

If you’ve read our Jitlada review, you know we are a sucker for well-made mango sticky rice. What is mango sticky rice? It’s basically sweet sticky jasmine rice flavored with coconut with fresh mango on top. It’s simple, it’s sweet, it’s satisfying. It is especially satisfying after a spicy meal that you usually find at most Thai restaurants! Mangoes have been off-the-chain in season right now in California, meaning they are cheap and taking lots of room in our pantry. I’ve wanted to make my own mango sticky rice, but I was always too intimidated about the rice part. That is, until I found my hack.

Jet Tila is one of our favorite chefs and he came out with a stellar cookbook a few years ago called 101 Asian Dishes You Need to Cook Before You Die. And guess what was in there? Yup. Mango Sticky Rice. Still, I was nervous about the rice. I didn’t have a bamboo steaming basket and I had no sticky rice. So, I went to the grocery store and I got creative. I scoured the Asian foods aisle, hoping that some divine idea would strike from the florescent lights above. And it did! There it was. VeeTee microwavable Thai Jasmine Rice. Yes, yes, I know it’s not authentic, and it’s not nearly as good as doing it right, but I needed a shortcut and I found it. This isn’t a sponsored post for VeeTee, so really any Thai jasmine rice will work. And you know what, the dish turned out pretty dang good and took hours less time and fewer contraptions. Sometimes, I have time for long, intricate recipes, and sometimes, I, well, don’t.

Hungry’s Current Training Plan

As many of you might already know, I’ve been dealing with some injuries for quite some time. While I never had certain ones surgically repaired, as I should have, I’ve only been piling up new injuries. Last May, I tore my quad/adductor in my right leg deadlifting, and stopped lifting heavy-ish, only to tear my soleus/gastroc in my left leg in December… while deadlifting!

So, how am I responding to that?

Our First YouTube Video Intro

Click HERE to watch!

Now that you’ve given us those 30 seconds of your life (thank you for that), we have to be the first to say that we’re not entirely happy with this intro for a few reasons. First of all, it isn’t anywhere near as inspiring or telling of what we do, as we’d like it to be. Second, and more importantly, it doesn’t highlight the both of us, but we really could only find footage of one of us!
