Today's workout is resistance bands. CARS is an acronym that stands for "controlled articulate rotations," which are slow, controlled movements that stimulate joints and muscles. And these type of exercises help increase mobility, reduce pain and release stress. The CARS method is especially effective this time of year when we are stressed and doing more sitting, which can cause the body to hold on to tension that can result in neck and back pain. What is the CARS mobility method? Join the November challenge! |

One of my go-to meal-prep items is roasted vegetables: They're super simple to make and can be turned into so many meals. Use any combination of your favorite vegetables here but be sure to cut them into uniform sizes so they roast evenly. To make a creamy base for the veggies, I add a bright herb-goat cheese spread. For a caponata-inspired twist, I sprinkle on capers and olives. The arugula on top adds a peppery bite while the hot honey drizzle gives a kick. The sprinkling of red wine vinegar is the final touch to making this the agrodolce flatbread of my dreams. Breakfast: Broiled Grapefruit with Yogurt, Nuts and Honey Lunch: Buffalo Chicken Salad Dinner: Roasted Vegetable and Herbed Goat Cheese Flatbread with Hot Honey Drizzle See the meal plan! |
