ECTOMORPH, MESOMORPH, ENDOMORPH

AMY YOU ARE PRIMARILY A MESOMORPH.
📷 ENDOMORPH: 25% 📷 MESOMORPH: 48% 📷 ECTOMORPH: 28%

You have a naturally fit body but, to maintain or improve it, you should adopt an exercise and diet regimen that compliments your build.
You can strength train more often and for longer periods of time, but be careful not to overdo it.
Train with moderate to heavy weights and keep a moderate pace, making sure not to rest too long between sets.
If you train and eat well, you may find you gain muscle quite easily. When you're happy with your muscle size, simply train to maintain. Stick to a good, healthy diet to stay lean and muscular, and watch for any slow-creeping fat gains. Engage in and enjoy aerobic activities, but be careful not to overdo it.

Let me know if you'd like additional information on diet and exercise.

loves!

Crispy Garlic Baked Potato Wedges


  • 6 large russet (or brushed) potatoes, rinsed
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (or 3 teaspoons garlic powder)
  • 3 teaspoons salt (adjust to your tastes)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2/3 cup finely grated or shredded parmesan cheese , divided
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 200°C | 390°F. Line 2 large baking sheets / trays with parchment (baking) paper; set aside.
  2. Cut each potato in half lengthways, then cut each half in half lengthways again, and then cut each half in half lengthways again until you have 8 wedges. (Make sure they are about the same thickness and size).
  3. In a small jug, combine the oil, garlic, salt and paprika. Place wedges onto the baking sheets. Pour the oil mixture over the potatoes and toss together to coat evenly. Arrange potato wedges in a single layer on a large baking tray, skin-sides-down. Sprinkle with half of the parmesan cheese and extra salt if needed. Bake for 35 minutes, turning wedges half way through baking time, until golden, crisp and cooked through when tested with a fork.
  4. Sprinkle with parsley and remaining parmesan cheese to serve.

  2. Add chicken stock, potatoes, tomatoes and garlic and bring to a boil. Add salt, pepper and basil.
  3. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Add green beans and simmer for 15 more minutes, until tender. (I do not like over cooked green beans, that's why I add them 15 minutes after all the other vegetables.).
  4. Cook soup until all vegetables appear cooked through, it usually takes me 30-35 minutes. Cooking time depends on the king of pot used, stove, vegetables amounts of stock used.
  5. Serve hot. You can garnish with chopped parsley or dill.
  6. After cooked, I served the soup with avocado on top. It made everything come together, Delicious
When I was sick I made this and it was quick and easy and perfect for my sore throat
