RECIPE OF THE WEEK -Overnight Cherry Coconut Chia Pudding
RECIPE OF THE WEEK -Overnight Cherry Coconut Chia Pudding
, , |

This week many of you would have returned to work and back to boring or worse still, missed breakfasts.Let’s turn that goal killing habit on its butt immediately.Overnight chia puddings are a great choice if you’re busy in the morning and still want a hearty, refreshing breakfast.

This Chia Pudding version is made with cherries but you can easily be substituted with frozen berries. Don’t want to use honey? Try a few chopped dates to sweeten it up!

Chia is one of the highest sources of protein available and it is also high in soluble fibre. With cherries being high in anti-oxidants & in fibre, Vitamin A – the rejuvenation vitamin, potassium, vitamin C and folic acid, you have put this simple meal through to diamond status. Add the good healthy coconut fats and you are going to have a full tummy with a kick-arse nutrient list that keeps you primed with energy and away from hunger for hours.

Cherries are also highly reputed for settling inflammation such as gout, so if you have over-imbibed during your holiday break, this is doubly therapeutic for you. In fact, researchers have found that consuming at least 10 cherries per day reduced the risk of gout attacks by 35%. A combination of cherries and Allopurinol (a medication) is often taken to reduce uric acid, reducing the risk of gout attacks by around 75%.

Overnight Cherry Coconut Chia Pudding

(Serves 2)

  • 3 tablespoons of chia seeds
  • 1 cup of coconut milk
    • you also can use almond or other nut milk if you’d like
  • 1 cup chopped cherries (frozen or fresh, your choice!)
  • 1 tablespoon (to taste) of honey
  • Dash of vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Place all ingredients in a glass container and stir well. Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator overnight. When it’s time to eat, place serving in a bowl and garnish with an optional teaspoon of almond slivers.

💡💡💡– You may add a layer of stewed Cherries or one of natural nut butter e.g; Almond butter, in the middle for a little extra delight in every bite!

This morning’s workout was nothing short of a metabolic BURNER.

We came in early, pushed through every set, every rep, and left feeling unstoppable.

What’s the payoff? Tonight, a few Halloween treats are on the menu - guilt-free.

When you put in the work, you earn the play. It’s as simple as that.

Tonight, those candy wrappers won’t come with a side of guilt; we’ve got the metabolic fires roaring to make sure of that.

Remember, balance is key. It’s not about depriving ourselves, but knowing that we’ve earned those treats.

Let’s celebrate the grind. You in?

You know Greenie as the guy who always brings the laughs 😂 cracking jokes and keeping the gym light-hearted. But on a 1RM testing day? The humor fades, and something incredible happens 🔥

Yesterday was one of those days. Last night, while you were lazing around, with a drink or the munchies in hand, Greenie's deadlift bar was loaded up, and all eyes on him. He was focused—locked-in, eyes-steel-serious and focused 😤

Screwing the hands into the bar, screwing feet into the floor, he gave a quick, couple of full huffs and puffs. then he was off,

170kg on the bar.

One rep 💪
Two reps 💥

HEAD TO HEEL - STRONG AS STEEL!

Each with a roar that echoed through the gym.. well maybe this bit I'm embellishing.. it was only a grunt..

And when the numbers were in? Those two reps translated to a jaw-dropping 1RM of 181.32kg! 🏋️‍♂️

Greenie doesn’t mess around on testing days—because even the funny guy knows when it’s time to get serious and smash some records 👊💯

Training for power isn’t just for athletes or bodybuilders—it’s something every fitness enthusiast can benefit from. 💪

Think about it. Power is the ability to move with speed & force. ⚡ It’s not just about lifting heavy weights but lifting them quickly & efficiently. And that carries over into real life in ways you might not expect.

Imagine picking up your kids, jumping over obstacles, or reacting quickly to prevent a fall. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🦸‍♂️ All of these require power. By training for it, you're conditioning your body to perform explosive movements, which translate into everyday tasks becoming easier and more efficient.

Power training also engages fast-twitch muscle fibres—the ones responsible for quick, intense movements. 💥 By activating these, you're not just building strength but also improving your muscle coordination and endurance. This means you’ll be quicker on your feet, more agile, and less prone to injury. 🚶‍♂️⚡

Plus, it’s fun! 🎉 Power training keeps things dynamic & challenging. Whether it’s plyometrics, kettlebell swings or Olympic lifts, you’re constantly moving in a way that builds functional strength & keeps you engaged. 🏋️‍♂️🔥

Today, we took things up a notch, working on the kettlebell snatch—a perfect exercise for developing power & understanding how our bodies generate it. 
🏋️‍♀️ The kettlebell snatch uses your entire body to create explosive force. From the initial swing to the overhead lockout, every part of your body—from your hips to your core to your shoulders—works together to move the kettlebell with speed & control. 🏃‍♂️💨

What makes the snatch such a great exercise for power development is the emphasis on hip drive. 🔥 The power in this movement doesn’t come from your arms, but from the explosive extension of your hips. It’s a full-body movement that teaches you how to use the largest muscles in your body to create momentum, which is exactly how power is generated in real-life activities. 🚀

As you pull the kettlebell, you're learning to harness the power from your lower body & guide it with precision .

So, don’t leave power training to the pros. Make it part of your fitness routine &watch as everyday tasks get easy 🔥🚀
𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗡𝗢𝗪. 💪

No excuses. No shortcuts. 🔥

And today, we’re welcoming back two warriors who live this mindset day in and day out—Nicky & Raph. 🙌 The energy they bring to the TFW Coffs Coast Familia is undeniable, and now they’re back in the trenches with us. 💥

Every. Single. Rep. 🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♀️

When you see them in the gym today, make sure you say hi, because these two don’t just train—they inspire. 💯

They’ve been through the ups and downs, the hard days when the weights felt too heavy, the early mornings when bed felt too warm, and still they rise. 🏆

But that’s what Familia is all about, right? 👊

Pushing each other to new limits, lifting each other when the grind feels too much. We don’t just train bodies; we build each other up. 💥

Nicky & Raph, welcome back. 👏

Let’s get after it! 💯🔥
