Can I introduce you to our lord and savior, oat milk?
It doesn’t froth quite as well but I like the taste even more.
You could also roast that cauliflower if you don't want to baby sit it in a frying pan
You could also rice that cauliflower and use it for stir fry, aw yea
Roasted veggies rock. You can toss them in and just set a timer to check on them/toss them around while you work on another part of the meal.
yeah np I'm glad it went good
how're you seasoning those bad boys btw, because if you don't add at least onion and garlic powder imo you should
ricing the cauliflower is just a texture thing that makes it more similar to rice for a fried rice type thing but with cauliflower instead of rice
but you need a ricer for it (but you can also use it to rice potatoes and... maybe other things!)
but you need a ricer for it
Weirdly enough, riced cauliflower doesn't need a ricer. If you have a food processor, you can just pulse it with a standard blade until its all rice-y. You can also use the cheese grater attachment, or if you don't have a food processor, the big holes on a box grater also work great.
i mean I guess you don't NEED a ricer but you need a method to rice it with
Whole grains are a life hack, relatively low in calories and very filling
With whole grains it’s a double effect bc not only are you eating something great for you, you replace something terrible for you (white grains)
it's fairly hyperbolic to say white grains are "terrible" for you, it's not like you're chugging castor oil
Dancing is such fun exercise. For a time when I was in university I used to dance before I left for class for a bit to get hyped and it was so energizing and affirming.
Congratulations! I'm sad to hear that you're scared of the gym. If not the gym, I have a personal bias against bodyweight exercise and prefer that it's supplemented with some kind of resistance training
Can I ask what you dislike about the gym?
You would get some. You'd have to get creative with them in order to see meaningful muscle gain. I know if I hadn't just watched an hour of YouTube, I could have used them for mobility training. I have these stiff shoulders that I mean to stretch out with bands, a towel, or yoga so I stop being prone to neck injury. I would be surprised if you could get a full workout with them. In my eyes they seem good for supplementing another athletic pursuit like a sport or body building.
personal bias against bodyweight exercise
Could I ask what creates this bias? I've been getting into doing basic bodyweight exercises with my partner and it has really helped us actually get moving.
I think it takes longer to get the same results. My understanding of strength and conditioning comes from an orthodoxy about progressive overload. In essence, if you give your body the fuel (enough calories + protein), you lift heavier things, and you rest then you build muscle. I have some references from unscrupulous places where one might typically get bodybuilding information from that show an outsized amount of time spent to get mediocre results.
ShowThis is video of a person who, though he is using resistance, the high volume training did not afford him the progress he wanted [1]. Sure, there are people who are training specifically to do something out of the ordinary with their body (muscle ups, pistol squats, etc.) [2], but for anyone who wants to lose weight or gain weight, I don't think it's the move. I think the exception gets a nice looking body doing calisthenics versus the competent getting a nice looking body doing progressive overload. If I wanted to change my body, I'd do resistance training. If I needed endurance, I would do triathlete stuff. If I needed agility, that's when calisthenic, isometric, and plyometric movements become part of a regimen that probably included the other two. I'd only ever want agility to supplement sports training.
But again, that's explaining my personal bias - not advice. If you're like, "but WDYMP! I want to be a better tennis player!" then you shouldn't follow my lead.
