As this week&#39;s Meatless Monday comes to an end, I&#39;d like to share a delicious, quick and easy recipe that I made while attending a Barilla Pasta cooking demonstration, led by Executive Chef Lorenzo Boni, at the Culinary Institute of America in Manhattan.&#160; Among the participants were Aly Walansky (left) of SheKnows.com and Jessica Lee [...]]]></description>

I&#39;ve given a considerable amount of thought to what I will eat over the course of this day as I intend to forgo meat for the entire day.&#160; Breakfast was easy: Noni juice and a tall glass of water first thing; several organic egg whites with 1 yolk, a steamed Braeburn apple sprinkled with cinnamon [...]]]></description>

Bootcamps are all the rage these days and with good reason.&#160; They&#39;re awesome at blasting fat while building strength and cardiovascular endurance.&#160; Typically, the bootcamp workout consists of calisthenics and various exercises or activities that tax multiple muscle groups at the same time.&#160; Most bootcamps utilize the environment- as in outdoor bootcamps- and require little [...]]]></description>

This is such a popular question- second only to the more general question, &#8220;Well, what do you eat as a trainer?&#8221; &#8211; that I&#8217;ve decided to post about it.

	
The breakfast meal is my favorite meal of the day.&#160; Ironically, I tend to eat &#8220;dinner&#8221; foods for breakfast and &#8220;breakfast&#8221; foods for dinner.&#160; &#160;When eating my [...]]]></description>
