Yeah, they look good, but the point is you're supposed to cook from them pic.twitter.com/jtkekbAuMG— Matt Tuckey (@matthewtuckey) September 15, 2018
It’s one thing to
buy a load of cookbooks, but the point of buying them is to follow
the recipes and eat the result, not just to dedicate a shelf in your
kitchen to them. It’s time I started bashing through these
cookbooks. It’s graft when you have memory difficulties, though,
and you have to make lists of everything and then harangue Tesco employees into helping you find some
obscure ingredient that you’ve never even heard of (spring onions
look NOTHING like ordinary onions, FYI).
However it’s
better than eating the same thing on a weekly basis, and every recipe
I follow is designed to be healthy, so from now on I’ll cut out the
junk and the alcohol and dive into a few of these books. I’ll eat
clean and hammer a few personal bests at the gym.
My oldest-standing
PB is 10 minute run at 14.1kmph from 2013. I’m going to work on
this by running at 14.0 for as long as possible, edging the time up
to 10 minutes. Along with this, I’ll be working other very old PBs,
including horizontal dumbbell fly (2x38kgs from 2015) and chest press
at 103.75kg from around September 2014.
Current body
weight: 80.5kg. Target weight: 73kg.
Added to this, I am
now newly clean shaven. I won't have a shave until I update again,
when I either beat one of these PBs or I hit my target weight. How
big will my hipster, ginger beard be? Let's find out. I’ll upload
the reviews of the recipes as part of my #psychologysaturdays posts,
explaining how following a recipe takes a little more time and
preparation when you’ve had a massive head trauma.
Let the cooking, eating and
giant piles of washing up commence.
