Chicken Base Protein Pizza
So! You've seen me making a clean, virtually carb-less (only 1.5g!) pizza on Facebook? (if not head over to the ForestFit Facebook page via the link below)... Here is quick "How To..."
1/ Open up a chicken breast and flatten with a rolling pin to make as flat as possible (mine was far off a perfect circle; so just get it flat!)
2/ Oven bake this at 200*C for 15-mins to get it partially cooked
3/ Top with approx 50g of chopped tomatoes (approx. 1/8th of a can)
4/ And sprinkle on your favourite cheese (try to limit this a little if possible... just to reduce the overall calories) I used about 25g or so
5/ Back in that oven for another 15mins
6/ EAT IT!
TOTAL: Protein = 66g / Carbs = 1.5 / Fat = 6.3g / 357kcals

Protein Smoothie
2 Fit-Tips!
2 FIT-TIPS for the price of none!
1/ Get some red meat in your diet - it has a great protein to fat ratio (fat which we use for energy while consuming little to no carbs) and is a fantastic source of iron (which aids oxygen delivery within your body), creatine and zinc.
2/ Do you struggle to drink enough water? Polish off every meal or snack with a pint of water 💦 you can even have your normal beverage too; but make sure you get through a pint of water too. This will help clean your system and increase energy levels. Water aids digestion and even improves mood! So get it down 😉💪🏼

Tip For Triceps!
Smashing out "Skullcrushers" with Charlie in his session with me this evening; pressing the weight up with power - but not above the face like most do - I teach him to keep his elbows back and stationary so that the arms lock out at an angle. This puts way more tension on the tricep and therefore promote arm size 💪🏼 Try it out!
Weak Point Training
Weak Point Training: a great way to see improvements in aesthetics and strength is to target weaker body parts first before moving onto favoured muscles. For example if your Chest is weaker than your Back, hit Chest exercises first up in your session or if Biceps is smaller in proportion to your Triceps then start with Biceps followed by supersetting with Triceps ☺️💪🏼🌳
