💖 NUTRITION & WELLBEING EDITION - 10 WEEKS UNTIL 2025 - GLOW UP SERIES [WEEK 10] - 💖

So we’re 10 weeks till 2025, the new year is fast approaching, your energy levels are in the gutter and despite mentally wanting to change your life there’s just something keeping you stuck. You wake up and it’s the same story different day, tired, hungry, moody as hell.

While you might mentally want to change your life, your body needs to be on board and to do that it’s gona need the right foods, drinks and nutrients to have you functioning at your optimal level. Taking drastic action when it comes to changing your diet is how you’re going to see drastic results in your energy levels, productivity and overall wellbeing… 

The foundations: 

🛌 SLEEP: All those late night movies before bed, Netflix and chill, love-is-blind binging needs to stop immediately. You need a set bed time and you need to be consistent. Waking up and going to sleep at the exact same time every single day. I recommend 10pm - 6am or somewhere around there. 

🥱 Sleep with your mouth closed. Use mouth strips from amazon if you dribble, snore, or struggle to sleep properly - breathing through your mouth is most likely the culprit. It’s not natural and disturbs natures rhythm which is breathing through your nose. Mouth strips have been a game changer for me, and highly recommended. 

🚫 No screen before bed. This is obvious but those doom scrolling morning and nights are over. Switch it off, read a book, pray, meditate, do what you need to. This is about resting your body before bed so you can sleep well and function at your best the next day. 

Sleep supplements: Magnesium oil spray or tablets before bed 

🍴 FOODS & DRINKS: 2 litres water MINIMUM per day. Absolutely no alcohol for the next 10 weeks. Strict diet of vegetables, fruits, protein and healthy fats, high quality meats and fish. More herbs into your food. Seeds, whole grains such as Chia, Flaxseed, Pumpkin seed, Bulgar wheat. More pre-and-probiotics. Sprouted veggies. Snack on nuts. No sweets, no cakes, no carbs. No bread, no pasta, no rice, no gluten. No nothing that is not a whole food, or from the earth. You are your own doctor when it comes to food, so you will know what is best for you. Above is the closest diet to nature and has changed my life. Eating vegetables in season. Removing western foods, removing vegetable oil, only drinking structured water, herb teas, and freshly pressed veg juices. Changing your diet might mean you stop eating out, you cut the takeouts, you spend your evenings researching meal preps for Keto, or healthy diet. Your life will completely change when you start feeding your body ALIVE foods, instead of nutrient deficient, processed food that keeps you craving more. Yes you are going against the grain. You will be the minority, but what are the alternatives? Stay binging? Stay eating crap? Stay feeling crap? 

Supplements: 

Chronium, Berberine for support with blood sugar 

D3 + K2, B12, Vitamin C 1000mg, Turmeric, Probiotics, 

DIM, Milk Thistle, Selenium, Iodine Drops, Omega 3, Mega GLA for women’s health.

Other: 

Get full blood panel done to see any deficiencies 

Invest in a continuous glucose monitor from Amazon - see how your body is responding to foods you are eating in real time. 

🏃🏽‍♀️EXERCISE: There is no way around this. You need to do some fucking exercise. Even if you start with 10k steps per day. Just do it. Once you’ve switched up your diet you absolutely WILL have more energy. Join a gym, set the intention, put reminders on your phone affirming you ARE someone whoo does exercise and works out. Leave your gym clothes out before bed. Set yourself up to win. Find a friend or someone to work out with. Look on YouTube for a workout if the gym is not possible. Just try your best. This is a mind over matter. ~You got this. 

🧘🏽‍♀️ Finally…STRESS FREE LIVING…

You can eat all the healthy foods, do your 10k steps but if you are involved in a stressful life, those stress hormones are going to come and f**k shit up. You have to remove stress where possible. This is the NUMBER one health destroyer. Stress literally makes is ill. It depletes your energy, exhausts you, and keeps you in survival - not much different to the animals living in the wild. Your life can be so stress free once you realise you are actually in control of a lot more than you realise. Blocking HIM. Saying no to hanging out with HER. Hanging up the phone. Removing yourself from the drama. Quitting your job. Changing your course. Deleting social media. Switching off the news permanently. Distancing yourself. There is SO much you can do to remove stress. But it’s completely on you. You have to take control if you are serious about changing your life. 

That’s all for this week! Next week more advice on your pre-2025 glow-up.

My Dungeon Meshi Modern AU Thoughts Instead of Writing My Economics Research Paper lmao

Ughhhh,,,, okay have been thinking about them all day and if one person manages to make it through the void and hear me out and talk about them with me then I’ll be happy lol.

WARNING: this is stupidly long, like I spent an absurd time writing every single little detail down. With that being said here we go:

cw//mentions and minor graphic descriptions of death, bullying, discrimination, injury, abuse, trauma, mental health issues, and abandonment

• Laios

- currently 26 and living with his sister Falin

- studying zoology part-time at the local college

- mostly does night classes since he works 1-2 jobs during the day to help pay for his and Falin’s tuition and apartment

- he and Fallin took their dog Muimui when they moved out, they also feed the local stray cats

- lived on a farm with his sister and parents when he was a kid, and is where his love of animals comes from

- however did not have the best of childhoods, as he was a frequent target for bullying due to having undiagnosed autism, and his father was very much a “nothing is wrong with you, toughen up the world isn’t going to coddle you” kind of person

- this was further cemented when he cried going hunting with his dad for the first time and refused to eat any of the deer or rabbit they had caught

- his mom had her own mental health problems that she was never diagnosed for, so often she fell into the same mindset as her husband when it came to Laios’ and Fallin’s behaviour, only she was more erratic due to her fear of one or both of her kids becoming like her

- never forgave his father after he sent Fallin off to a private middle/high school far away from their home, little did he know it was because the severe bullying Fallin was receiving was too much for her, and he wanted to send her away before she got hurt or worse

- nearly tried to run away at 16, however was caught by the police almost immediately and returned home

- completed his high school diploma and took off with Muimui without even saying goodbye to his parents, Fallin nearly joined him in the city but since she was still under guardianship of her parents, she couldn’t leave until she became an adult

- once graduated, she reunited with Laios in his apartment where they now live

- works nearly full-time at Senshi’s restaurant and works part-time as a janitor at their local zoo (he wants to be close to the animals lol)

- very busy but he makes it work, Marcille and Kabru have no idea how he does it without any meds or caffeine

- either has a worn out picture of him and Falin with their old dogs, or has a hand-made drawing of his theoretical strongest monster in his pocket that he looks at whenever he needs inspiration

- both him and Falin live wayyy out of the city center since rent is fucking abysmal downtown

- insists on taking the bus or walking everywhere since taxis and buying a bike costs too much, even if the commute is like 2 hours with 3 transfers

- despite this, he still has a drivers license

- the kind of guy you would expect to be eating leafy green tofu bowls from your local hipster vegan bistro, but is actually the kind of guy who eats the dubious $4 ground beef chubs and off-brand deli ham from walmart

- socks and slides with free college club t-shirts and cargo pants from the gap that come with like 50 pockets so he can carry all his stuff (the stuff mostly being dog treats and loose bird feed) bro has no drip aside from one outfit put together by Marcille

- uses the same highlighter blue and yellow adidas backpack he’s had since middle school, carries literally everything in there

- doesn’t listen to music, but if he does it’s rain/nature sounds with the $2 headphones you get from the dollarstore

- not much of a gym freak and usually just goes casually, prefers sports to working out (will have a protein shake but does not invest in creatine or other pre-workout supplements)

- either uses the same recyclable water bottle with the label torn off from a pack of 50 he got 3 years ago, or just uses one of his protein shake bottles I can’t decide

- hangs out with Marcille and Falin the most often (since Marcille constantly makes excuses to study with Falin at their apartment), sometimes gets smoothies or juice with Kabru if they run into each other

- hangs out with Senshi and Chilchuck less often, their time spent together is usually limited to having a beer after closing the restaurant or meeting together with everyone else to have dinner every couple months

- goal is to become a wildlife biologist when he graduates

- more to add if I think of it

• Fallin

- currently 23 and lives with Laios

- in her second year of studying veterinary medicine at their city’s main university

- grew up with Laios and her parents on their farm, also developed a deep love and appreciation for animals early on, but while Laios was more interested in the study of their behaviour, she was more interested in healing them

- also has undiagnosed autism like her brother, only when it came to her behaviours, she stood out a lot more and was subsequently bullied heavily for stimming, having major sensitivities to light and sound, self-isolating, talking to inanimate objects or “ghosts”, having a special interest in things like bugs or plants, and having a very specific schedule that adults had to help her with

- never really understood why adults or other children treated her differently, as she thought it was normal for everyone, however was still affected by having no friends aside from her brother during her younger years

- the bullying got so bad that kids began physically tormenting her, and since she never told Laios (who was in middle school and couldn’t always be with her), there was essentially no one to defend her

- very sadly culminates in an incident where she was intentionally locked in a graveyard overnight, and although she didn’t sustain any injuries she was fairly traumatized by the event, it was the final straw for her father to send her away to a private school at 12 years old to finish her education

- moved to a different city the next year where she stayed in dormitories, had her own room due to enrolling late

- also initially had a hard time making friends, and often cried since she couldn’t be with Laios, however no one bullied her for her autism and most often ignored her or gossiped

- had Marcille as a “buddy” to help her get acclimated to school life, however their relationship was quite awkward initially as Marcille thought she was unnerving and frankly a little stupid, however was completely shocked at Fallin’s nearly perfect grades

- school policy at that time stipulated that students had to return to the main hall for dinner at a certain time, however when Fallin doesn’t show up, Marcille has to look for her

- she finds Fallin at her secret hangout spot, similar to her dungeon in the anime, a corner with a group of trees and thick bushes that opened up into a grassy nook and a little pond, there they talk about what she does there and why she skips

- also similar to the anime, a fox (rather than a slime) catches them by surprise, but as Marcille tries to get it to run away by throwing rocks at it, Fallin stops her and explains it never comes closer than the tree line, she then points out that hurting while it’s already injured (has a slight limp) will cause it to die, allowing for the prey animals like squirrels and rabbits to eat away at most of the fauna surrounding the school, basically emphasizing the importance of all animals in an ecosystem and how it’s wrong to try and shift the ecosystem solely for our comfort or benefit (cheesy I know but it’s for the plot)

- she then offers Marcille the raspberries that grow on some of the bushes, and soon after Marcille asks if she would like to be friends

- they remain as friends in school only for another year, as Marcille graduates early and leaves Fallin behind much to her heartbreak, however does promise that she’ll visit and reunite with her soon

- by the time she graduates, she moves in with Laios and begins attending the same university as Marcille, there their friendship is reaffirmed, and they both start to develop feelings for one another

- full-time student but does work a few shifts at one of her university’s coffee shops whenever she can (tends to feel guilty about Laios helping her out with tuition on top of taking care of everything at home)

- in the honours program, and although she gets good grades her commitment is often questioned due to her habit of skipping

- reason for skipping is because she often does volunteer work at a nearby veterinary clinic

- unlike Laios, Fallin likes to bike to and from her classes

- it’s her main source of exercise, though she also does go to the gym if she has time, girl is absolutely built and is much stronger than she appears

- lives off of daily sweet treats and fried bologna sandwiches or tomato soup made by Laios

- frequently raids the raspberry bush growing outside hers and Laios’ apartment building, as well as the crabapple tree that technically belongs to the house next door but has its branches growing over the fence separating them

- also does not rely on excessive caffeine, but she does enjoy tea and coffee unlike Laios

- has a fjällräven backpack that Marcille gifted her for her birthday, mostly full of her textbooks but she does use it to carry rocks or sticks she finds interesting

- water bottle is a very dented bright pink hydro flask (also gifted to her by Marcille)

- has the jean shorts, tucked in t-shirt, and long cardigan look on lockdown, also wears hiking boots or converse, rarely is she seen in flipflops

- no make-up either, Marcille had to practically beg her to at least start using a clear lipgloss

- isn’t picky about music and usually just listens to whatever Marcille or Laios plays, sometimes she indulges in some lofi hiphop beats if she’s studying

- obviously best friends with Marcille but does not know she has a crush on Marcille, and thinks that her intense feelings of love and happiness are just normal girl friendship feelings (oh you poor thing)

- only vaguely knows of Senshi through the leftover food Laios sometimes brings home after his shifts, with Chilchuck she is more familiar since she sometimes visits him with Marcille on the weekends

- favourite thing is when her, Laios, Marcille, Izutsumi, Chilchuck, and Senshi all gather to get dinner together

- when it comes to her parents, she still maintains contact unlike Laios, though her messages tend to be generalized or cordial (not necessarily her intention it’s just she isn’t sure what to talk about in regards to her life beyond school)

- goal is to become a travelling wildlife vet

- more to add when I think of it

• Marcille

- is currently 26 and lives by herself (due to it being a modern au I’m imagining all races have the same lifespan of around 70-80 years)

- had probably the most normal upbringing and early adulthood out of all of the characters, both of her parents were very loving and attentive, always encouraging her and supporting her keen intellect through her hobbies

- however, they weren’t always around due to being very busy as government lawyers and often working late, she has very distinct memories of winning math and science awards as a child, looking out towards the crowd only to see her parents weren’t there

- was generally quite lonely during her childhood since she had no siblings or cousins to play with, a similar situation at school where most kids considered her stuck up or bossy when in reality she was just smart and was blunt about telling people when they were wrong about something

- is very close with Chilchuck, having known him and his family since she was little, although them all getting together was fairly rare, some of her fondest memories have been when they’d go on family trips together and she would get to play with Chilchuck’s daughters

- lost touch with him from ages 9-15 but reunited with him at 16 while he crashed at their place after his work injury and during his divorce, became very close with him during this time and developed a deep familial fondness for him despite all his teasing

- at 19 years old, she suffered a great deal of mental anguish as Chilchuck began to lose contact with her, Fallin was considering moving to a different city for university, and her father died due to a very sudden and unexpected stroke, she felt as though everyone in her life was slipping through her grasp and as a result, developed severe depression that would last until she completed her masters

- luckily, she had a good support system during that time and she was able to make it through the worst of it, however she still does struggle with motivation over simple tasks such as doing her hair or brushing her teeth

- her mood and outlook is much better though, having mostly returned to the same bubbly and dramatic personality that she once had

- is best friends with Fallin, and met her while at private school, mostly explained above, but her initial reaction of Fallin was quite negative before switching around after she realized that her way of thinking isn’t always the right one, even if the facts are right, her perspective and way of interpreting them isn’t always going to be sound

- this new perspective is what caused Marcille to become so enamoured with Fallin, eventually becoming a stupid crush that sticks with her to this day

- has her own studio apartment downtown, brand new building and everything (both parents are government lawyers so you can imagine the kind of money she has lmao)

- has a fawn floppy-eared bunny named Ambrosia

- despite her wealth, she doesn’t look down on her friends whatsoever, if anything she buys them expensive gifts as an act of kindness rather than an act of arrogance or condescension

- in the middle of attaining her phd in microbiology while doing independent research specializing in the study of telomere function

- attends the same university as Fallin

- graduated from high school at 16 and was done with her undergraduate by 19 and her masters by 21, a lot of people tend to think she’s full of herself but she often disregards them as people who don’t try hard enough

- born to carry her baby blue apple ecosystem in a cute tote bag, forced to haul her 7 biology textbooks in an ugly ass dark purple swissgear backpack she picked out when she was 12

- she has an unhealthy addiction to coffee and diet coke, literally cannot function without at least one per day

- cannot cook to save her life, lives exclusively off of pre-made grocery store meals or the sandwiches her university’s grab-n-go store sells, the kitchen aid mixer in her kitchen is practically a decoration at this point

- is actually the kind of person to be eating the leafy green tofu bowl from the local hipster vegan bistro

- has her own car and license, but lives close enough to her university to walk, Laios cannot fathom why she pays insurance every month for it but hardly uses or let anyone else use it

- I personally think she likes to rollerblade too

- jogging is her main form of exercise, but will also do yoga or calisthenics occasionally, probably the type of person to fall for a juice cleanse scam until Laios or Chilchuck scolds her for not eating enough

- I feel like she would be an intense swiftie (sorry :3) other than that, she likes the typical pop radio stuff that is played constantly

- at least she’s not a Stanley cup girl, she will use her scuffed gallon water bottle with the printed times of day until she dies

- very fashionable and loves to wear makeup, like wide leg pants or pleated skirts with penny loafers and cutesy blouses, a firm believer that any Korean makeup brand is far superior than anything Sephora could offer

- practically attached to the hip with Fallin, girl will find any excuse to study with her (the most pathetic sapphic ever someone put her out of her misery)

- otherwise, she’s buddy-buddy with Laios and Kabru but that’s about the extent of it, she’s known Chilchuck since she was little so he’s like an uncle to her

- she is quite friendly with Senshi and enjoys his cooking but hasn’t known him for a long time like the others, Izutsumi she treats like a little sister/niece and is always buying her things

- more to add when I think of it

• Chilchuck (you can tell he’s my fav because he has one of longest backstories lmao)

- currently 49 and living with Senshi and Izutsumi

- owns a two bedroom bungalow outside of downtown but still within the city, saved up for it after his divorce

- used to live in the suburbs with his ex-wife and daughters, but before that it was a shitty apartment close to where Laios lives now

- teen father, had Mayjack when he and his wife were 17 and had to graduate early so they could move out, they had Fullertom soon after and then Puckpatty by the time they were both 20, they got married at 22

- since neither could afford university at the time, Chilchuck went straight into a locksmithing trades program so he could have a decent income, his father had instilled a deep sense of responsibility and honour towards being a provider so he threw himself into his work which caused his and his wife’s initial frustration with one another

- when he was done apprenticing and when the kids were old enough to go to school, his wife went to university to begin studying teaching so she could become a professor, despite having to be home more often, Chilchuck still remained somewhat emotionally detached from his family

- by the time his daughters entered middle school, they had bought a house in the suburbs and his wife became qualified to teach

- feeling pressured by the mortgage, debt, and having to save for his daughter’s college, he began drinking more and taking a lot more hours at work, if he wasn’t working he was at the bar with his coworkers, he often didn’t come home until it was very late

- the final straw for his wife was when he showed up to work severely hungover and exhausted, then proceeded to nearly die in a home renovation project (passed out standing up and fell of a 20ft scaffolding, broke his hip and pelvis pretty badly as well as his humerus and quite a few of his ribs, also had a life-threatening brain bleed due to a skull fracture)

- at that point, all three of his daughters were already in university or trade school so his wife moved out and sold their house while Chilchuck was recovering in the hospital, she moved into a townhouse closer to the city’s main university where she still lives now with Fullertom

- having basically nothing in his savings, he crashed at Marcille’s parent’s place until he could save up a bit and get an apartment or townhouse (he and Marcille’s dad were friends in high school), essentially lived on their couch for about two years

- during this time, he became known as “Uncle Chil” by 16 year old Marcille and he developed a close uncle/niece relationship with her

- teased her as much as any uncle would, but also took her out shopping every couple of months, could never afford the stuff she wanted but he always got her lunch

- eventually, he saved up enough for the down payment of the two bedroom bungalow he lives in now and moved in, initially lost touch with Marcille but started being there for her more after her dad died, even began getting in touch with his daughters again at Marcille’s suggestion

- from then on, he took his work life more easily and tried to make time for himself in between shifts so that he didn’t feel he needs to drink himself stupid every time he came home, tried to pick up multiple hobbies and eventually settled on pottery making and brewing his own alcohol (that he sells…. mostly lol)

- meets Senshi at 42 when he is called in to install the locks and security system of the new restaurant Senshi is building, initially they had not been super friendly with each other, as Chilchuck found it infuriating how Senshi kept on wanting changes to be made to his security system, and how he was basically a walking construction accident waiting to happen

- once everything was finished however, Senshi offered Chilchuck a free dinner at his place as an apology for being stubborn, and unable to say no to free food (and alcohol) Chilchuck agrees

- they become friends after the dinner, however proceed to dance around each other for another 4 years until Marcille threatens to tell Senshi about Chilchuck’s feelings if he doesn’t confess himself

- Chilchuck does eventually confess (during a very charged “guy’s trip” to a resort in Mexico) and they start dating, after the trip, Senshi and Izutsumi move into Chilchuck’s place where they still currently live

- thanks to living with Senshi, Chilchuck adopts a more healthy lifestyle where he stops smoking, eats more, and drinks less, in return, he helps Senshi manage Izutsumi during her teen years as well as help out around his restaurant when he has time

- is generally living comfortably now, with a nice salary and more free time to commit to his hobbies, despite this he still deeply cares about his work and is a union man at heart who is always willing to rally behind his coworkers and organize when something happens

- mostly listens to 80s dad rock and some 90s grunge, is very proud of his CD collection

- dresses similar to Laios, however ditches the college club t-shirt and cargo shorts for polos shirts and chino shorts or dress shirts and casual slacks, also wears tacky boomer sandals for his feet or his construction boots

- drives a land rover defender that he bought in high school, cares for it deeply but isn’t a car guy by any means, he does the bare minimum maintenance to keep it safe and functional

- carries his minimal stuff in a sling bag and lunch cooler, but he also has a survival backpack in the back of his land rover for emergencies

- is a Stanley cup owner, has two, one from the 70s that his dad gave to him, and another white modern one from Marcille, his older one is covered in princess stickers from when his daughters were young

- pretentious black coffee drinker, makes fun of Izutsumi all the time for the amount of simple syrup and cream she puts into her iced coffee

- is okay at cooking, but is definitely more of a grill master, never ask him to deep fry anything though

- is also surprisingly handy thanks to the skills his dad passed onto him, speaking of his family, he isn’t very close to his mother and siblings since they all moved back to their home continent after Chilchuck graduated, he still sometimes travels alone on special holidays or on the anniversary of his father’s death but only if he can afford it

- is now a supervisor of his own crew, initially he wanted to own his own locksmith company, but he also wants to retire soon so he needs to save up as much as he can

- has two main friend groups, one he refers to as “the freaks” which includes Laios, Marcille, Fallin, Kabru, Izutsumi, and Senshi, and the other he refers to as “work” which includes Namari, Mickbell, Kuro, and Dandan

- is closest to Senshi and Marcille, seeing them as his family, however is a bit more distant with Izutsumi since he doesn’t want to automatically take on a “step-dad” role in her life, the reasoning mainly stems from his respect of her and her decisions on who she gets to let in her life, but is also because he wants to avoid things becoming awkward between them

- is, if not begrudgingly, friendly with Laios and Fallin, deep down he cares about them more than he lets on, is mostly cordial with Kabru

- is surprisingly close to Namari, however they keep their relationship strictly within their workplace and the bar they sometimes hit up afterwards

- is closer to his ex-wife and daughters now, having dinner once a month at his ex-wife’s house, they still haven’t really reconciled but they’ve allowed each other to move on

- more to add when I think of it

• Senshi (also super long please forgive me)

- is currently 52 and living with Chilchuck and his adopted daughter Izutsumi

- lives in Chilchuck’s house, but used to own a condo near the restaurant he used to work for

- when he was a child, he lived on an entirely separate continent in the remote far north, the village he grew up in was known for its mining industry, most of the community including his parents were miners, however an accident killed his father and cancer killed his mother when he was a baby, so his father’s friend Gillin took Senshi in when he was 2

- due to the mining culture surrounding the village, it was expected that Senshi also become a miner when he grew up, this coupled with the hyper-masculine ideas of honouring his late father and carrying on the bloodline, made Senshi not really put in much effort into school since he believed it had no use for him, a decision that would later hinder his career and degree options greatly

- once graduated from high school, Gillin immediately had Senshi take his safety courses and get his certification so he could get a job as soon as possible, with some references from Gillin himself, Senshi was able to land a beginner’s position within the company Gillin was in

- worked 7 years mining coal until the mine ran dry and he had to look for work elsewhere, jumped positions between 3-4 companies over another 8 years mining iron and copper until he landed a 2 year contract at a remote but booming silver mine

- was put into a 6 man team composed of himself, Gillin, Brigan, Invar, Totan, and Noor, where they would descend into a highly unregulated and dangerous mountain mine and extract the massive veins of silver, they all were paid well, but the conditions were next to abysmal

- 1 year and 9 months into the contract, a rockslide on the south side of the mountain caused a cheap tunnel support to collapse over the only exit leading out of the stope they were mining in, effectively trapping them indefinitely

- luckily they had a ventilation shaft, but none of them could fit inside and escape or yell for attention since they were trapped over 200ft deep and 500ft in the mountain, so their only option was to ration their food and wait for help to arrive

- they do try to escape in other ways, such as mining through the collapsed support, however this only leads to injury among the group, and as much as Senshi wanted to help, he was under strict instruction by Gillin not to over-exert himself, even though he wasn’t a kid anymore, he still had the most strength and wits among them all, this also results in him receiving the most food much to Brigan’s rage

- in an attempt to be useful, Senshi started drawing up the maps of the mine to see if there was a tunnel close by they could mine into

- as more time passes and they realized no one would be coming to help them, their escape attempts become much more desperate, one attempt to blow up the collapsed tunnel entrance with their remaining explosives leads to the death of Totan, another attempt to start mining over the collapsed tunnel entrance leads to the death of Noor, one last attempt to remove the panelling lining the ventilation shaft so they could be able to fit through leads to the death of Invar, leaving only Brigan, Gillin, and Senshi left

- after six weeks of being trapped under ground, Brigan mentally snaps and tries to cannibalize Senshi so they could eat his flesh, this leads to a physical altercation between Gillin and Brigan which ends in an unstable overhang of rock to collapse and crush Brigan and for Gillin to succumb to his wounds and exhaustion

- alone and starving, Senshi realizes he is now skinny enough to fit through the ventilation shafts and crawl his way out, he uses a combination of ropes and support spikes to help aid him, but soon quickly realizes he mostly has to navigate in the dark

- for two more weeks, Senshi follows the map he memorized and the feeling of airflow to make his way out, only surviving off of his remaining water, in the end he managed to crawl out of a shaft just outside the mining camp

- relived and also deeply saddened, Senshi remains near the shaft until some workers doing a perimeter check find him in the morning, he is promptly taken into the hospital to treat his injuries

- after explaining the situation to the police and his boss, his boss offers him a $30,000 payout to keep quiet and say nothing, the officers say it is possible to take his boss and the company to court, however it would likely put him into massive debt trying to find a good lawyer, in the end Senshi takes the money and leaves the camp for his village

- what’s left to him by Gillin is another $50,000 in savings and property assets, the rest is given to his remaining family, the first thing Senshi buys with the money is his adamantine pot and mythril knife, using both to make a soup Gillin would often feed him, and leaving five bowls of it outside of the collapsed silver mine before moving out of his village for good at aged 35

- he moves to the continent and city where all the other characters are currently living, buying his condo and deciding to enter into 4 year culinary school program

- during these 4 years, Senshi comes to realize that cooking is his true passion, finding it immensely rewarding and fulfilling, and even though he didn’t make many friends due to his unorthodox taste and recipes, it was still the most happy he’s ever been

- about 1 year after graduating and getting a job as the main line cook for a high end restaurant, Senshi meets and adopts 5 year old Izutsumi

- he initially sees her wandering around the green belt outside and behind the restaurant, kicking rocks and occasionally running and hiding in trees, he was always worried she was homeless, however would always see she was gone by the time he was done his shifts

- around five months of this, Izutsumi notices and begins to approach Senshi, as if she had wanted food, Senshi would usually offer some of his packed lunches or leftovers and she would always accept and sit next to him while they ate

- Izutsumi usually never spoke but was always ravenous, Senshi often worried that she was being abused, but whenever he would ask she would always say no, and since she was a healthy weight and never had any bruises or welts, Senshi reluctantly believed her, after that though he began packing more food

- eventually, a woman (Maizuru) approaches Senshi after one of his shifts and bluntly asked if he would like to take care of Izutsumi from then on, baffled he asked who she was and why she knew he was feeding Izutsumi, and she explained that she is her caretaker

- she also explained that since Izutsumi seemed to trust and respect Senshi the most, that he would be the best person to give her a chance at a normal life and raise her into an adjusted adult, due to the fact that she has no regard or interest or respect in her or the rest of her foster family, she then conceded that her question was rather sudden, but still implored Senshi to take her into his care or otherwise she would be forced into an orphanage

- thinking of Gillin, and with the wound of his crew’s death still in his mind Senshi, perhaps impulsively, agrees to take Izutsumi in, much to Maizuru’s delight and thankfulness

- the next day, she returns with Izutsumi and her things and tells Senshi that she will handle most of the legal paperwork aside from the few forms that he will have to sign

- from that point onward, he took care of Izutsumi and made sure she got through school, although she wasn’t completely responsive and obedient, he was still very patient and understanding with her, except for the first few times she would keep on running away from school to join him for his lunch breaks

- they have a very trusting relationship with one another, and Senshi is the only one Izutsumi will open up to, Senshi often encouraged her talent of athleticism by signing her up for various sports, he was and still is very attentive towards her needs and is always feeding her the things she likes (and dislikes)

- Senshi works at the restaurant for another 9 years, simultaneously saving up for his own restaurant and saving for Izutsumi’s college, at age 45 he meets Chilchuck during the construction of his restaurant and they form a close friendship

- subsequently, he is introduced to Marcille, Fallin, Laios, and even Kabru, but still mostly interacts with Chilchuck and Itsuzumi

- however he is quite close with Laios since he works as a server at his restaurant and is very enthusiastic about his cooking technique, flavour pallet, and types of dishes he serves

- at age 49, he officially opens his restaurant and starts dating Chilchuck, the three of them all move in together and become a household unit

- is now very happy with where he is at in life, works and manages his restaurant while still making time for Izutsumi and her hobbies, is very close with Chilchuck and becomes the first person he opens up to about his past and what he went through, generally the grossest and most sappiest old couple you will ever meet

- made a Senshi-sized hole deep into the fabric of Chilchuck’s home, converting his backyard into a full vegetable and flower garden that he maintains, is super proud about it and often leaves the prettiest flowers on Chilchuck’s side of the bed or in a vase on Izutsumi’s bedside table

- head-chef and owner of his restaurant, his favourite part is being able to cook what he wants for a very specific audience (people like Laios)

- his food is not super high-end but also not like a family diner either, a healthy mix of both, like kid friendly while still being classy and opulent enough to take someone out on a date there

- drives his beloved suzuki carry to and from work every day, does a good job maintaining it on his own despite it being boring according to him

- I honestly don’t really know what Senshi would listen to, I feel like the most in character for him would be folk music from his home country or bossa nova i can’t really decide

- coffee with lots of sugar but no cream or milk, prefers drinking black tea with milk and honey if he has a choice

- bag is a basic backpack with minimal items like wallet, keys, lipbalm, mints, etc… always has a change of clothes in case his gets dirty at work, also has extra hair and beard nets, some stuff for Izutsumi is in there too

- water bottle is also a vintage stanley cup, but his is wayyy more dented than Chilchuck’s and older (from like the 50s) refuses to buy anything else until it is unusable, has had the same piece of duct tape sealing a leak near the bottom for the past 20 years

- also can’t decide if he’s a t-shirt or Hawaiian shirt kind of guy, probably a healthy mix of both, also mostly wears shorts or a kilt-like garment native to his home country, lives exclusively in sandals you will never find him in close-toed shoes unless he’s working

- funny story deriving from this fact, the first impression Chilchuck ever had of Senshi (aside from “damn he’s kinda hot”) was “oh my god how the fuck is this guy not dead” due to the fact that Senshi showed up to the construction sight with flip flops, no safety helmet, and no safety vest on whatsoever

- more to add when I think of it

• Izutsumi (still a cat-girl in this universe)

- currently 17 and living with Senshi and Chilchuck

- used to live with the Nakamoto’s as a foster child, however hated living there due to the unfamiliarity and attempts at sweeping her past trauma under the rug and refusing to treat her for it

- life before the Nakamoto’s is fuzzy, it’s implied by her councillor and confirmed by Maizuru later on that she was raised by her mother until she died or abandoned her at 3 years old, was then placed into the care of another foster home who physically and verbally abused her, keeping her chained up in the basement most of the day and hardly feeding her, if not forgetting about her all together

- she was taken in by the Nakamoto’s at aged 4, and had a very hard time managing her due to her stunted social skills, anger issues, and delayed language development manifesting itself in avoidance behaviours such as running away and lashing out violently

- had frequent nightmares during this time, resulting in her becoming very clingy during the night

- would often run away to the green belt close to her house, the same green belt that was connected to Senshi’s restaurant

- initially only approached him because of the smell of food, her prior abuse and malnutrition resulted in an early form of binge eating, so she often sought any sight, smell, or taste food as a way of safety and comfort

- unlike all her previous caretakers, she found Senshi to not be malicious or uncaring towards her, especially after he started sharing and bringing food for her, her ease around him didn’t go unnoticed by Maizuru who then offered Senshi the deal to take care of her

- initially hated living in Senshi’s condo since the small space reminded her of the basement she was kept in, but soon found it to be much more comfortable if she could smell the food Senshi would make

- Received counselling for her trauma and slowly began to get better, however she would still frequently act out or skip school as a coping mechanism, however, Senshi helped her regulate her energy and emotions through signing her up for various sports, she did volleyball, hockey, wrestling, swimming, etc… until she settled on gymnastics and Muay Thai

- has somewhat of a complex towards love and attachment, in that she doesn’t fully believe an individual cares for her or loves her so will often do whatever she likes both because she doesn’t think it affects the other person that much and because it will prevent people from wanting to get close to her and have a meaningful relationship, a complex that stems from her past abuse

- is now in a much better headspace than she was in, as she has two caretakers who are patient and understanding with her, but are also willing to discipline her and prepare her for the outside world, she also has a good external support system and even a friend at school whom she often hangs out with

- she is currently in her junior year of high school, with decent grades, but only because Senshi and Chilchuck want her to do well so she has more options for university

- her best subjects are science, phsy ed., english, has a hard time with social studies and math

- her one friend her age is Tade as they both are frequently sent to the after-school homework program to help improve their grades, Izutsumi is usually good at shouldering off her homework to her in exchange for ice cream or food, but she’s usually caught and forced to do double the work

- Tade is also a foster kid of the Nakamoto’s, in fact she was the one Izutsumi would usually go to sleep with if she had a nightmare, so they never hang out at her house and either stay at Izutsumi’s house or hang out at the local park/mall

- is very talented athletically, and has won multiple awards at gymnastics and Muay Thai competitions

- still a ravenous eater, but with a crazy fast metabolism so she gains almost no weight, still picky with vegetables and mushrooms but will still eat them as long as their hidden in her food well enough

- coffee flavoured milk drinker, if there’s even a hint of bitterness in her coffee she’s throwing it out

- is into most old alternative or indie rock, appreciates Chilchuck’s taste in music immensely, she’s been learning how to play the bass recently

- has been learning basic recipes from Senshi and can manage a few dishes on her own, is much better at baking overall, never leave her alone with the blowtorch or barbecue though

- aside from sports, she enjoys playing video games and sleeping, she likes mostly storytelling or competitive console games like Skyrim, God of War, and Call of Duty

- bag is a simple black backpack that has all of her papers and textbooks haphazardly shoved in with no regard for neatness or organization, on a good day a pencil will be in there too

- water bottle is non-existent, she uses drinks from the school water fountain as an excuse to get out of class and wander around for a bit

- is old enough to drive and has her license, but doesn’t have her own car yet and still has to catch the bus, if she does drive it’s Senshi’s suzuki, Chilchuck let her drive his land rover once and she backed into a pole

- lives in crop tops and shorts, is actually quite fashionable but doesn’t have the energy or motivation to pull anything off, either wears converse, slides, crocs, or doc martens as footwear, most would describe her style as grunge-ish

- makeup is hit or miss, sometimes she can muster some concealer and eyeliner, but for the most part she just washes her face and nothing else, she is big into jewelry though and likes to wear lots of accessories

- has been allowed to pierce her ears quite extensively, as well as her nose, however both Senshi and Chilchuck have drawn the line at any other face piercings until she’s an adult, much to her dismay

- outside of Senshi, Chilchuck, and Tade, she is probably the most friendly with Marcille and Fallin as they frequently visit and interact with her, Marcille especially loves to spoil Izutsumi with treats and gifts since she never had a little cousin growing up

- Izutsumi likes Fallin for her quietness and ability to keep out of her business, however saw first hand how weird she can be when she held up a massive rhinoceros beetle without even flinching, also when she kept on excusing herself to their backyard to go snack on their strawberry plants

- Laios and Kabru she knows of, also finds Laios to be very weird but is less friendly about it than she is with Fallin, his lack of understanding of social cues also confuses her

- more to add when I think of it

AND THATS IT!!! This was stupidly long, I hope I didn’t bore you to death lol. I’ll probably do another one of these so I can include Chilchuck’s daughters, Kabru, Namari, etc… maybe with some additions to the main cast, but yeah that’s about the extend of it, hope you enjoyed :3

[wolverinewing]

I’ve always been interested in strength sports and being a bigger dude in general. I’ve been working with a coach for the last 14 weeks. I’ve changed my eating, starting pounding water and supplements, and doing some PT to fix some injuries from a few years ago. Trying to do this naturally (for now) and safely so I get my doctor’s approval for nearly everything. I have this primal and masculine urge to be a massive beast of a bull and I love the feeling of a great pump and the feeling the full weight of the bar in my hands. My gym is powerlifting focused so that’s how i’ve been training. This blog is gonna be a source of mental power to keep me motivated while eating, meal prepping or pre-workout.

I’m a tall guy, standing at 6’2, I’ve been hovering around 209-215 for the last 14 weeks but definitely getting stronger and bigger. I’m not trying to get super shredded (yet anyways) but just massive; Big arms, bulky chest, power gut, tree trunk legs, 6-lane highway back and a fat ass.

Wolverine is because my name is Logan, and because the wolverine is an unassuming but fierce predator in nature. They live in a rough, unforgiving environment and can withstand very harsh conditions. It’s kind of a metaphor for my mentality; how much I’m driven to kill it using the pain of all my past and current struggles as the catalyst for becoming big and strong. I know Its a marathon not a sprint but I have some catching up to do. I know to check my ego at the door but I want to be the biggest, strongest and best in the gym. I’ll be posting progress pics, anything else I’m interested in lifting-related and of course, the amazing iron bros, daddy bears, and muscle blimps I see online. LETS FUCKING GOOO!!!

Aizen Power Supplements: A Game Changer for My Fitness Journey

Having been a gym enthusiast for years, I've always strived to optimise my workouts and take my fitness to the next level. While a good diet and consistent training are crucial, I felt I could be doing more to support my body's natural potential. That's when I discovered Aizen Power Supplements, a range of health products specifically designed for men looking to enhance their performance.

Boosting Energy and Stamina

One of the most noticeable changes I've experienced since incorporating Aizen Power Supplements into my routine is a significant increase in energy and stamina. Pre-workout, I used to experience fatigue halfway through my sessions, hindering my ability to push myself further. However, since incorporating their pre-workout supplement, I've noticed a sustained energy boost throughout my workouts. This allows me to train harder for longer, ultimately leading to better results.

Improved Recovery Time

Anyone who lifts weights knows the importance of proper recovery. Post-workout soreness and fatigue can significantly impact your training schedule. Aizen Power's recovery supplements have been a game-changer in this aspect. The combination of natural ingredients like protein and essential nutrients has noticeably reduced my recovery time. This allows me to train more frequently and maximise my gains.

Building and Maintaining Muscle Mass

Let's be honest, building muscle is a top priority for many gym-goers, myself included. While diet plays a major role, having the right supplements can provide that extra edge. Aizen Power's protein supplements have been a valuable addition to my post-workout routine. The high-quality protein provides the essential building blocks my muscles need to recover and grow. I've seen a noticeable difference in muscle definition and strength since incorporating these supplements.

Natural and Safe Ingredients

One of the things I appreciate most about Aizen Power Supplements is their commitment to using natural and safe ingredients. Many performance-enhancing products on the market are loaded with artificial additives and chemicals that can be harmful to your health. Aizen Power's focus on natural ingredients gives me peace of mind knowing I'm putting only the best into my body.

Overall, a Positive Experience

Overall, my experience with Aizen Power Supplements has been overwhelmingly positive. The increased energy, improved recovery, and noticeable muscle gains have all contributed significantly to my fitness journey. If you're a man looking to take your workouts to the next level and achieve your fitness goals, I highly recommend giving Aizen Power Supplements a try. With their focus on natural ingredients and effectiveness, they're a great option for anyone serious about their health and fitness.tunesharemore_vert

Green Coffee and Blood Sugar: Understanding the Connection

Discover the Power of Green Coffee for Natural Weight Management

If you're looking for a natural, plant-based solution to improve your health and support your weight loss journey, green coffee might be just what you need. Unlike traditional coffee, green coffee retains its powerful nutrients and antioxidants, making it a popular choice among health-conscious individuals.

Let’s dive into what makes green coffee so effective, and why so many are turning to it for energy, metabolism, and wellness support.

What Makes Green Coffee Unique?

Green coffee is made from unroasted coffee beans, meaning it retains a higher amount of chlorogenic acid—a natural antioxidant that may aid in fat metabolism, reduce sugar absorption, and help maintain healthy blood pressure levels.

Roasting coffee beans typically strips away many beneficial compounds. But green coffee preserves them, making it a superior choice for those seeking natural health supplements.

Benefits of Green Coffee for Your Body and Mind

Supports Natural Fat Burning Green coffee helps activate the fat-burning process in your body by boosting metabolic activity. Chlorogenic acid promotes the breakdown of stored fat, especially when paired with a healthy lifestyle and a balanced diet.

Maintains Healthy Blood Sugar Levels Regular consumption of green coffee may assist in balancing blood sugar levels by slowing carbohydrate absorption. This makes it beneficial not just for weight control, but also for reducing sugar cravings and energy crashes.

Improves Energy Without the Jitters While green coffee does contain some caffeine, it's much less than a regular cup of coffee. It provides a natural energy boost without causing jitters or anxiety, making it perfect for morning routines or pre-workout support.

Rich in Antioxidants Green coffee is high in antioxidants that protect the body from free radical damage and oxidative stress. This supports healthier skin, better immunity, and improved overall well-being.

Detoxifies and Cleanses Acting as a gentle detoxifier, green coffee supports liver function and helps flush out toxins from the body. This cleansing effect can improve digestion and help you feel lighter and more refreshed.

How to Use Green Coffee Effectively

The most convenient way to enjoy green coffee is in powdered form. Simply Herbal's Pure Green Coffee Beans Powder – 225 gm offers a premium, easy-to-use solution. Simply mix 1 tsp of the powder with hot (not boiling) water, let it steep for 5–10 minutes, and enjoy 30 minutes before meals.

For best results, pair it with regular exercise, hydration, and a balanced diet.

Who Should Use Green Coffee?

Green coffee is ideal for:

People aiming for weight management

Those with sluggish metabolism

Individuals seeking a natural detox

Fitness enthusiasts needing a gentle pre-workout energy boost

It’s also suitable for both men and women who prefer plant-based supplements with minimal processing and no harmful additives.

Precautions to Keep in Mind

While green coffee is generally safe, individuals sensitive to caffeine or those with specific health conditions should consult their doctor before use. As with any supplement, moderation is key.

Conclusion

In a world filled with synthetic supplements and harsh fat burners, green coffee stands out as a safe, gentle, and natural solution for health-conscious individuals. Whether your goal is to lose weight, detox your body, or simply enjoy more energy throughout the day, green coffee offers powerful benefits backed by nature.

The New Age of Clean Energy: Why a Ketones Drink Is Gaining Popularity

In a world where energy is constantly in demand, people are searching for healthier, more sustainable alternatives to traditional energy boosters. From students pulling all-nighters to athletes preparing for intense training sessions, the need for reliable energy sources is undeniable. While coffee and sugar-loaded energy drinks have long dominated the market, a new contender has emerged — the Ketones drink. Packed with health benefits and free from the downsides of stimulants and sugars, this innovative beverage is fast becoming the go-to solution for those seeking clean, lasting energy.

Understanding Ketones and Their Role in Energy Production

Before exploring the benefits of ketone-based drinks, it’s essential to understand what ketones are and how they fuel the body. Ketones are natural molecules produced by the liver when carbohydrate intake is low, such as during fasting or a ketogenic diet. In the absence of glucose, the body turns to fat for energy, converting it into ketones which serve as an efficient fuel for both the brain and muscles.

Unlike the sharp spikes and crashes associated with sugary drinks and caffeine, ketones provide a steady, reliable source of energy. They are capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier, delivering fuel directly to the brain, which often results in improved mental clarity and focus. This makes a ketones drink a smart and effective alternative for individuals looking for balanced physical and cognitive performance.

What Makes a Ketones Drink Different from Regular Energy Drinks?

The biggest distinction between a ketones drink and traditional energy drinks lies in their ingredients and the way they deliver energy. Most conventional energy drinks rely heavily on caffeine, artificial stimulants, and sugars to create a temporary burst of energy. While effective in the short term, these drinks often lead to energy crashes, jitters, and long-term health concerns.

On the other hand, ketones drinks offer a clean energy source without the drawbacks of stimulants or excessive sugars. These beverages work by increasing the levels of ketones in the bloodstream, helping the body access fat stores for sustained energy production. The result is a smoother, more stable energy experience that supports both endurance and mental performance, making them suitable for everything from workouts to demanding workdays.

Discovering the Best Ketone Energy Drink for Your Lifestyle

With the rising interest in ketogenic diets and metabolic health, the market has seen a surge in ketone supplements. However, not all products are created equal. The best ketone energy drink is one that delivers quick and effective ketone absorption, tastes great, and uses clean, high-quality ingredients.

Consumers today are paying closer attention to product transparency, nutritional content, and ingredient sourcing. The best ketone energy drinks are free from unnecessary fillers, artificial additives, and excessive sweeteners. They should also offer a well-balanced flavor profile that makes them enjoyable to drink, whether before a workout, during a long afternoon at the office, or as part of a daily health routine.

The best part about incorporating a ketones drink into your lifestyle is its versatility. It can serve as a morning pick-me-up, a pre-workout boost, or a mental focus enhancer without causing sleep disruptions or energy crashes later in the day.

Conclusion: Where to Find Premium Ketone Energy Drinks

For those ready to experience the benefits of clean, sustained energy, it’s important to choose a brand committed to quality and performance. One standout option in this growing industry is ketonenrg.com, a platform offering thoughtfully crafted ketone drinks designed to support your physical and mental energy needs. With a focus on clean ingredients, fast-acting formulas, and enjoyable flavors, they provide some of the best ketone energy drink options available today. Whether you’re striving for better athletic performance, sharper focus, or simply more balanced daily energy, their products can help fuel your goals naturally and effectively.

Fat Burning Coffee That Works

Morning coffee. It’s more than just a ritual—it’s how we start our day, how we survive deadlines, and sometimes, how we brace ourselves for a workout or school run. But what if that cup of coffee could do more than just wake you up? What if it could help you burn fat?

Sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? It’s not.

The truth is, fat-burning coffee is no longer just hype. It’s a smart blend of natural ingredients that support metabolism, energy levels, and fat loss when paired with a healthy lifestyle. And the best part? You don’t need to give up your morning brew. You just need to tweak it a little.

Here’s how it works, what to look for, and how to integrate it into your day without skipping a beat.

What Makes Coffee Burn Fat?

It starts with caffeine. This natural stimulant boosts your central nervous system and can increase metabolic rate by 3–11%. It also promotes the breakdown of fat cells for energy. But caffeine alone isn’t the magic behind fat-burning coffee.

The real magic lies in the ingredients added to amplify those effects.

Key Fat-Burning Coffee Ingredients to Know

Black Coffee

Let’s start with the basics. Black coffee, without cream or sugar, is low in calories and loaded with antioxidants. It’s the cleanest foundation for a fat-burning coffee because it stimulates thermogenesis, helping your body generate more heat and burn more energy.

MCT Oil

Short for Medium Chain Triglycerides, MCT oil is a healthy fat extracted from coconut oil. Your body processes it quickly, converting it into energy rather than storing it as fat. It also keeps you feeling full longer and can help curb cravings.

Green Coffee Bean Extract

These are unroasted coffee beans that retain a high concentration of chlorogenic acid—a compound believed to influence how the body handles blood sugar and metabolism. It helps reduce fat absorption and boosts fat burning.

L-Carnitine

This amino acid plays a key role in energy production. It transports fatty acids into your cells to be used as fuel. This is why it's commonly found in pre-workout supplements and increasingly in fat-burning coffee.

Cinnamon

It may seem simple, but cinnamon is a powerful metabolism booster. It helps regulate blood sugar levels and reduces insulin spikes that lead to fat storage.

How to Use Fat-Burning Coffee Effectively

The benefits of fat-burning coffee are real, but timing and consistency matter. Drinking your coffee at the right time and combining it with other healthy habits can amplify results.

Here’s how to make it work for you:

Drink it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach to kickstart metabolism.

Avoid adding sugar or sugary creamers, which cancel out fat-burning benefits.

Try intermittent fasting with coffee, using it as a tool to extend your fasted state without feeling drained.

Stay hydrated by drinking water alongside your coffee to maintain balance and prevent caffeine-induced dehydration.

Remember, fat-burning coffee should supplement a healthy diet, not replace it.

DIY Fat-Burning Coffee Recipe

Want to try it at home? This is a popular recipe among wellness circles and biohackers.

Ingredients:

1 cup of organic black coffee

1 tablespoon MCT oil

1 tablespoon grass-fed butter or ghee

Dash of cinnamon

Optional: 1 scoop of collagen protein or L-carnitine supplement

Blend everything for 15–20 seconds until it becomes frothy. The result is creamy, satisfying, and surprisingly energizing.

Pre-Made Fat-Burning Coffee Blends

If you don’t want to play barista every morning, there are also pre-made fat-burning coffee blends you can buy. Look for brands that include natural ingredients like:

Green coffee bean extract

MCT oil powder

Garcinia cambogia

Ginseng

L-theanine for focus without the crash

Choose a product with no added sugar, minimal artificial flavoring, and a transparent label. A great place to start is by checking out curated lists like the one in the full guide on Lean Bean Mama’s blog.

Why Fat-Burning Coffee Isn’t Just a Trend

Weight loss trends come and go, but the science behind fat-burning coffee has staying power. It's backed by studies on caffeine’s role in metabolism, the ketogenic benefits of MCT oil, and the glucose-regulating properties of green coffee bean extract.

Fat-burning coffee supports:

Appetite control

Improved energy and mood

Enhanced exercise performance

Better mental focus

More efficient fat metabolism

And because it’s so easy to incorporate into your day, it becomes a sustainable habit rather than another diet phase.

What to Watch Out For

Not all fat-burning coffees are created equal. Some are more hype than help. Be wary of products that promise instant weight loss or contain long lists of unfamiliar ingredients.

Here are a few red flags:

High sugar content

Artificial sweeteners or additives

Unlisted proprietary blends

Extremely high doses of caffeine (which can spike anxiety or cause crashes)

Always do your research and opt for clean, natural ingredients that work with your body—not against it.

Real People Are Seeing Real Results

It’s not just theory. People who incorporate fat-burning coffee into their morning rituals often notice changes in their energy, mood, and cravings—sometimes within just a few days.

Some report having fewer mid-morning crashes. Others notice they snack less. For many, it’s the mental clarity and energy boost that keeps them coming back.

As part of a healthy lifestyle, fat-burning coffee isn’t a miracle solution—but it is a powerful tool.

Ready to Brew Smarter?

If you’re already drinking coffee, upgrading your cup to a fat-burning version is a small change with potentially big benefits. Whether you DIY it or find a trusted brand, the key is consistency and balance.

Why Functional AF Is the Best Gym Clarkson for Personal Training

1. Expert Personal Trainers Who Know How to Get Results

At Functional AF, we pride ourselves on offering the Best Personal Training Clarkson Perth. Our trainers are more than just fitness professionals—they are coaches, motivators, and wellness experts. With diverse backgrounds in strength training, sports conditioning, rehabilitation, and mobility, our trainers bring a comprehensive approach to fitness that goes beyond the basics.

When you sign up for personal training at Gym Clarkson, you’ll receive a program specifically designed to meet your individual goals. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all approaches. Instead, we craft customized training plans that account for your current fitness level, desired outcomes, and any challenges you may face.

Whether you’re working toward increasing strength, losing weight, or improving athletic performance, our trainers will guide you every step of the way to ensure you stay on track and achieve real, lasting results.

2. Functional Training Focus

Functional AF specializes in functional training, which is all about exercises that improve the way your body works in real-world scenarios. Rather than focusing solely on aesthetics or isolated muscle groups, functional training at Gym Clarkson emphasizes movements that mimic the activities you do every day—lifting groceries, squatting to tie your shoes, or reaching overhead to grab something from a shelf.

By engaging multiple muscle groups and working on coordination, balance, and mobility, functional training helps you build strength and flexibility that directly impacts your daily life. This approach not only helps prevent injury but also makes everyday tasks easier and more efficient.

3. Natural Ingredients: Fuel Your Body for Maximum Performance

While exercise is crucial for achieving fitness goals, nutrition plays an equally important role. At Functional AF, we believe in a holistic approach to fitness, which includes incorporating natural ingredients into your nutrition. Foods and supplements that are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants can accelerate recovery, reduce inflammation, and boost energy levels, making them essential for getting the most out of your training.

Our trainers often recommend nutrient-rich, whole foods like leafy greens, lean proteins, healthy fats, and natural supplements such as turmeric, ginger, and green tea. These natural ingredients can help reduce inflammation, enhance muscle recovery, and support overall wellness. Whether it’s a protein smoothie post-workout or a pre-workout snack packed with healthy fats and carbs, we’ll guide you in choosing the best foods to optimize your training.

How to Maximize Your Personal Training Experience at Functional AF

1. Consistency is Key: Show Up and Stay Committed

The first and most important step in any fitness journey is consistency. At Functional AF, we emphasize the importance of showing up regularly and staying dedicated to your fitness plan. No matter how challenging a workout may seem, consistent effort over time will lead to results.

Even on days when motivation is low, try to stay on track by setting small, achievable goals. Whether it’s committing to three workouts a week or increasing your weights slightly each session, the key is to keep moving forward. Our trainers will be there to encourage you and keep you focused, helping you overcome obstacles and stay motivated.

2. Focus on Form and Technique

When it comes to strength training and functional exercises, the quality of your form is far more important than the quantity of reps or weights. Poor form can lead to injuries and limit your progress, whereas perfecting your technique ensures better results and long-term success.

At Gym Clarkson, your trainer will work with you to ensure proper form and alignment during every exercise. They will help you identify and correct any bad habits, leading to more effective workouts and better overall performance.

3. Fuel Your Workouts with Proper Nutrition

Nutrition is the foundation of any fitness journey, and without the right fuel, your body won’t be able to perform at its best. To optimize your performance and recovery, it’s important to consume the right foods at the right times.

Here are some tips for fueling your body with the best nutrition:

Pre-workout nutrition: Eating a balanced meal about 30-60 minutes before your workout can help provide sustained energy. Opt for complex carbohydrates like oats or whole grains paired with protein (like lean chicken or eggs).

Post-workout nutrition: After a workout, your muscles are in recovery mode, so it’s essential to replenish lost nutrients. A protein shake with a mix of natural ingredients such as whey protein, banana, and spinach is a great option.

Hydration: Don’t forget to hydrate before, during, and after your workout. Proper hydration is vital for maintaining energy levels, improving endurance, and supporting muscle recovery.

4. Allow for Rest and Recovery

While it’s tempting to push yourself hard every day, rest is just as important as training. Your body needs time to repair and rebuild muscle tissue, which happens during recovery periods. At Functional AF, we encourage you to listen to your body and schedule regular rest days.

Adequate sleep, stretching, foam rolling, and relaxation techniques like yoga can speed up recovery and prevent injury. Our trainers also incorporate mobility work into your training sessions, helping improve flexibility and reduce muscle soreness.

The Benefits of Personal Training at Functional AF in Clarkson, Perth

Personal training at Functional AF offers numerous benefits that go beyond just improving your fitness. Here’s how choosing our Best Personal Training Clarkson Perth can transform your life:

2. Accountability and Motivation

With personalized coaching, you’re not left to your own devices. Our trainers provide consistent check-ins, adjustments to your program as you progress, and the motivation needed to stay on track. We understand that staying motivated can be tough, but with the right support system, you’re more likely to stick with your goals and see results.

Working out with proper form and technique is essential to avoid injury.

How is Creatine effective in building muscle and increasing stamina?

 Creatine is one of the most researched and effective supplements for enhancing strength, endurance, and muscle growth. However, not everyone gets the maximum benefit from it due to incorrect usage or absorption issues. In this guide, we'll explore the best hacks to ensure your body fully utilizes creatine, maximizing its effects on your performance and recovery.

Understanding Creatine and Its Benefits

Creatine is a compound that naturally occurs in muscle cells. It helps produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the primary energy source for high-intensity exercises like weightlifting and sprinting. Supplementing with creatine can lead to:

● Increased muscle mass

● Enhanced strength and power

● Faster recovery

● Improved endurance

● Better brain function

To get the most out of creatine, let's dive into proven strategies that enhance its absorption and effectiveness.

1. Choose the Right Type of Creatine

Not all creatine supplements are created equal. Among all forms of Creatine, Monohydrate is found to be the most studied and highly recommended form of creatine, considering its effectiveness and affordability. OneHealth Shop offers high-quality Creatine Monohydrate that ensures maximum absorption and performance enhancement.

2. Timing Matters: When to Take Creatine

While some people believe timing doesn't matter, research suggests that creatine is best-consumed post-workout for optimal muscle retention. However, taking it pre-workout with carbohydrates can also improve absorption.

● Pre-workout: To enhance strength and endurance.

● Post-workout: To replenish ATP stores and improve recovery.

● With meals: Consuming creatine with food helps boost its absorption.

3. Pair Creatine with Carbohydrates

Consuming creatine with carbohydrates increases insulin levels, which helps shuttle creatine into muscle cells more efficiently. One great way to do this is by mixing creatine with a mango-flavoured weight gainer and creatine from OneHealth Shop. This product not only provides a tasty option but also enhances the delivery of creatine to your muscles.

4. Stay Hydrated for Better Creatine Absorption

Creatine pulls water into muscle cells, promoting hydration and muscle fullness. To avoid cramps and dehydration, ensure you're drinking enough water throughout the day. Aim for at least 3-4 litres daily when supplementing with creatine

5. Use a Loading Phase (Optional)

A creatine-loading phase can help saturate muscles faster. The standard approach is:

● Loading Phase: 20g per day (split into four doses) for 5-7 days.

● Maintenance: Under this phase, around 3-5g can be consumed per day to sustain creatine levels.

Note: The loading phase is a biggest myth. Theoretically, it may sound helpful, but it is not advisable to all as it may cause some adverse effects, like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea. If you prefer a slower approach, take 3-5g daily without a loading phase. The effects will still build up over time.

6. Combine Creatine with Other Superfoods

At One Health Assist, wellness experts recommend pairing creatine with other superfoods like protein powders, amino acids, and weight gainers to enhance muscle growth. Their guidance ensures you get the best nutrition plan tailored to your fitness goals.

7. Avoid Mixing with Acidic Beverages

Creatine is stable in water but can break down in acidic liquids like citrus juice. Always mix it with plain water, smoothies, or protein shakes to maintain its effectiveness.

8. Cycle Creatine or Take It Continuously?

Unlike some supplements, creatine does not require cycling. It can be taken daily for long-term benefits. However, some people prefer cycling to reset their body's response. A typical cycle is 8 weeks on and 2 weeks off, but continuous use is entirely safe.

9. Monitor Your Sodium Intake

Sodium helps in creatine transportation, but excessive salt intake can lead to bloating. Keep a balanced sodium intake to support muscle function without water retention.

10. Creatine and Caffeine: A Good Combination?

There is ongoing debate about whether caffeine affects creatine absorption. Some studies suggest that high caffeine intake may slightly reduce creatine benefits, while others indicate no significant impact. If you consume caffeine regularly, try spacing it out from your creatine dose to see what works best for you.

11. Myths About Creatine

Many misconceptions surround creatine. Let's debunk a few:

● Creatine causes kidney damage: Studies show that creatine is safe for healthy individuals when taken in recommended doses.

● Creatine is only for bodybuilders: It benefits athletes, runners, and even older adults looking to preserve muscle mass.

● Creatine makes you gain fat: It increases water retention in muscles but does not lead to fat gain.

12. Find the Best Creatine Supplements at OneHealth Shop

To experience the best results, choosing high-quality supplements is key. OneHealth Shop offers premium creatine products designed to optimize performance:
