Last nights KB test


Posing our test last night
Feeling a bit sore today. Pretty happy with my results and looking forward to seeing the changes to come :)

After the test we had a girls movie night :) 
It's nice to get some chill time with the ladies. 
It's important to get some time like that. And also moving as much you kind of miss that social bond when it's always new people. 
Thanks ladies 

Deodorants?




So trying to figure out what to do about deodorants?
I train... I sweat... Normal
Ive always used what ever deodorant... with aluminium.
But the last few years I've been trying to find an alternative as I do not like the stories about aluminium.
I have not really found an alternative that does it for me.
I find that the natural ones last for very short time and then for some reason, it seems like I smell more after a few hours with a natural one, than not using any at all. Also I often find that they leave stains and leaves a smell on the clothes. Even after they are washed.
For smell and less sweating its the antiperspirants that work, but I have been steering away from them  for different reasons.
Aluminium and Alzheimer?
Aluminuim and Cancer?
With breastfeeding its also pretty close to babies mouth and nose, so that is actuarially my biggest, why i'm not going for that one.

Any one else got any opinions about this? Anyone found a good alternative?
I've also tried to just use the coconut oil... where i also add my own oils, like lavender and tea tree
It works..but still i'm hunting for something else...



Some of the different selections found in my house. Not all mine tho.

Night snack and Tungtvann


Got a little hungry 
So this is what I desided to quickly put together. Instead of grabbing for the candy bowl or chips try crabbing some real food and then see how you feel?
Still need that sugar fix? 

Goat cheese, as I figured out I don't really do the best with cow cheese anymore. 
 Cucumber, tomatoes, peppers and raindeer sausage! Yum yum 

And watching Kampen om Tungtvannet 

Baking for my 5 year old!!!

  • 1 cup coconut flour

Jonas didn't ask for much for his birthday. 
He wants dried mangos so I put that on his birthday cake.

Can't do it tomorrow? Do it today!

Tomorrow I can't make it to my kettlebell class, meaning I will have no class until Wednesday from last friday, that is too much time for me without the gym. So decided to go tonight instead.
Just working on the same exercises as we have been doing on thursday mornings.
Tina came with me just to chill. Sunday night are so nice and quiet at the gym so got to do some pictures as well.


One of my favourite moves right now is thrusters, don't know why that one is so much fun for me to do but I just really like it.


Squat with a bar, not too much weight there yet. My knees are cracking so much when I do this one. Gotta figure that out. No pain just sounds really weird.



Hoping this one will help me get to more pull-ups....


And then a little fun with the kettlebells after. 
On wednesday we have our test so that will be fun. Tonight I tried to do a snatch with a 22 kg bell. I did it, but could only do it with the right arm, the left one does not quite have the strength yet. 




Also tried this one again, I can pull my self up with an extra 4 kg bell. Kinda a fun exercise to do. But I'm also worried about falling on my head.

Anyways, pretty nice and calm sunday, boys had a nice activity day out in Storlidalen.
Made wicked lettuce bacon-burgers for dinner. With sweet potato fries.

Tomorrow, I rest :)


En norsk forklaring på KOMBUCHA :)


     Når man lager kombucha er det viktig å ha et rent og ryddig system. 



HVA ER KOMBUCHA

Kombucha te er en fermentert te. 
Kan minne litt om cider, da den er kulsyreholdig.

Kombucha er en gammel populær drikk fra Mongolia. Men brukes mange andre steder også

Det er mange påstander om kombucha men ingen av disse er bevist ellerdokumentert av leger. 
men under skriver jeg litt om hva det er sakt og noen av disse kan jeg selv si at jeg merker.



-hjelper blodsirkulasjonen
-minsker åreforkalkning
-minsker  høyt blodtrykk
- senker blodsukker
-hjelper mot kronisk tretthet, gir energi
-minsker stress
- lindrer revmatisme: artrose, leddgikt etc. 
-lindrer hodepine og migrene
-forberedrer huden
-hjelper mot eksem og candida (soppinfeksjon)
-hjelper på sårlegningsprosessen
-hjelper hele fordøyelsessystemet
-hjelper leveren med å  utskille giftstoffer
-regulerer PH i magen og tarmer
-minsker nyrestein
-hjelper mot forstoppelse og diare
-styrker imminforsvaret
-hjelper fordøyelsessystemet
-fornyer celler i kroppen
-antibiotiske egenskaper
-bra mot astma

Mange andre ting man også kan finne men det beste er nok bare å prøve det selv og se hva du synes. 
Jeg har selv brukt kombucia i over 1 år. Og merker veldig forskjellen i kroppen, visst jeg har hatt det travelt og ikke hatt tid til å lage meg en ny 'batch' på en stund.
Det jeg merker mest er at det gjør godt for magen. Blir på en måte som kefir da. Men slipper melkeprodukt. Da det er noe jeg prøver og ikke få i meg for mye av.
En annen ting jeg selv merker er at det hjelper med mer energi. 

Visst noen der ute er intereserte i en 'scoby' soppen som vokser teen for deg så ta gjerne kontakt. 
Soppene vosker fort så man ender opp med mange og flere blir kastet.

Jeg har nå kommet til at min kombucha smaker godt, men det kan ta fler forsøk før man får den skikkelig god. Noen små triks her go der. 
Jeg legger oppi en liten bit ingerfer da de skal stå i flasken og gjere seg et par dager extra. 
Da blir smaken extra god. 


Håper noen fant dette hjelpsomt.
