Overhead Press (2D): Use two dumbbells of a lower weight. Take two lighter dumbbells, and create two right angles by your head so that your arms look like a football goal, and your head is in the middle. Lift both arms to the ceiling above your head and lightly touch the dumbbells together while extending. Bring them back down to the right angles, and repeat. Trap Lift (2D): Use two heavier dumbells and hold them at the sides of your hips. Shrug your shoulders as if you are saying “I don’t know” with your body while keeping your arms straight and at your side. Repeat. Alternating Forward to Lateral Raise (2D): Use two dumbbells of a lower weight. Stand with your feet about hip-width apart. Hold a weight in each hand with your arms resting along the front of your legs, palms facing in. This is the starting position.With a slight bend in your elbows, slowly lift your arms straight up in font of your body until they are in line with your shoulders. Then, slowly lower them back down to the starting position. Next, keeping that same bend in your elbows, raise your arms out to the sides until they are in line with your shoulders. Slowly lower them back down. Continue this, alternating between forward and lateral raises. Upright Row (2D): Use two dumbbells of a lower weight. Stand with your feet hipwidth apart, holding a weight in each hand with your arms down in front of your body, palms facing you. With your back straight, core engaged, and chest lifted, slowly lift your hands to shoulder height. Your elbows should extend out to the sides. Squeeze your shoulder blades at the top and hold for a second. Slowly lower your hands back to starting position. Remember: Form is everything and weightlifting can target other parts of the body as well. Take control of your body and mind and prove to the world that no matter what weight you lift now, you will be able to lift more and more every time. Feel empowered and you will be. 108 Alice Spring 2019
Unbelieva-bowl The latest smoothie trend is thicker, yummier and even more photogenic By Lucy Hanley With avocado toast and artful lattes dominating the online foodie scene for the past few years, it’s time to accept the undeniable supremacy of the latest social media food trend: smoothie bowls. Looking back, 2018 was a year characterized by talk of veganism, mirror-glazed desserts, superfoods, #CleanEating, avocado, and unicorn-themed everything. This year, however, is the year of the smoothie bowl. Not to be confused with the also previously trendy açaí bowls, smoothie bowls are new, improved, and even more aesthetically-pleasing than a traditional smoothie. While smoothie bowls can be traced back to eastern cultures, açaí bowls originated in one of the only regions where açaí berries grow, Brazil. The berry is a regionally-renowned dietary staple, commonly employed as a nutritional supplement for the diets of those who cannot afford expensive grocery lists. Origin aside, smoothie bowls exercise more freedom in the composition of their bases. It’s meant to include a variety of fruits and vegetables to suit the individual’s dietary needs or preferences. Despite their flexibility of constituents, the bowls are expected to be carefully coordinated. They were conceived as a way to pair low glycemic fruits with nutrient-rich vegetables, nuts and other toppings, ultimately creating a delicious, nutritious and filling meal. These bowls are designed to be served thicker, colder and with a spoon. Their unique texture—one which is similar to that of a sorbet—allows for the addition of virtually unlimited toppings including coconut flakes, granola, sliced fruit, honey, nuts and berries. Lower glycemic fruits like cherries, apples, oranges, grapefruit and pears reduce inflammation in the body and help to maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the day, making you feel fuller and more satisfied with your meal. These fruits also promote both weight loss and maintenance, as well as lower your risks of developing heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Other common smoothie bowl ingredients like avocado, chia seeds and various nuts not only help to create a thick, creamy texture, but they also yield lots of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids.
