Love yourself enough to take care of yourself.
No, that’s not another hip new acronym the kids are using nowadays.
Your TFL is used to describe the small muscle in your hips; Tensor Fasciae Latae. It’s located in front of your hip joint & connects to the very long tendon known as the Iliotibial band, or IT band. Your TFL aids in flexion of your hips (i.e. crunches or running); abduction of the thigh & also helps to control & keep hips level while walking/standing & may even aid in stabilization of knee.
How is 2017 going for you? Are you sticking with your goals? I’ve been consistent with my workouts & really focusing on tuning into my hunger cues, instead of eating because I have macros left.
With that being said, I still love my sweets & will continue to make room in my diet for a treat—I love me some rich chocolate brownies. This particular brownie recipe is loaded with fiber, the B vitamins; folate & B6 which all help against heart disease. Potassium, calcium & magnesium are the other powerhouses that make these brownies chock full of nutrients. Can you guess the secret ingredient that makes these brownies so much healthier?
Happy 2017! I love the start of a new year! There’s something about a clean slate, a crisp new planner begging for the pages to be filled. What do we want to achieve this year? Where do you want to travel? What old habits are you willing to let go?
