My academic journey through the MEd health education and active living program.
Lime Margarita Cupcakes
The recipe can be found HERE.
I had to add more icing sugar to the icing to make it pipe-able. I doubled the recipe and got 21 large cupcakes and 24 mini cupcakes.
Enjoy!
Fitocracy
After talking about what motivates us to make changes in our health, I thought I'd share a fun motivational tool for exercise I found a few months ago.
Fitocracy is a social game where you track your exercise to get points. You must get a certain number of points to move on to the next level. The higher you get, the more points you need to level up again.
There are quests to undertake such as "The Squat isn't so Scary" where you must complete one barbell squat and "Stiff as a Board, Light as a Feather" where you must perform 300 seconds of planks and a set of wide grip pull ups.
There are also Achievements which are for performing the same activity multiple times such as "I lift things up and put them down" (the creators have a sense of humour!) for deadlifting 1.4x your body weight or "I seem to be lost" for running 20 miles (32.2km) in your lifetime.
Overall, I've found it a fun place to track exercise and motivate myself to try new things (I like to see that completed quests number go up!)
I have 9 invites, so I'll put up the link here if anyone wants to try it out. Those 9 could then share their invites as well so that everyone can give it a go if they'd like.
Happy exercising!
