What it is

A blog at the intersection of two things I do four times a week each: lifting and cooking.

What it isn't

It isn't a generic "high-protein recipes" pile. Every post is one of these formats:

  • A meal I actually eat between workouts, with macros.
  • A small kitchen swap I made when I started lifting (heavier breakfast, more salt, smaller dinner).
  • A short essay on something the gym taught me about how I eat.

The audience

It's for the gym-goer who can also cook, and who's tired of being told to eat plain chicken and broccoli. The bar is: every recipe should be something you'd happily eat if you didn't work out.
