Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments. In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun! paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky
Top 5 Dangers of Doing Jillian Michaels Body Revolution
5. Equipment. As in shaving equipment. Be it shaving your legs or your under arms, shaving may become a hazard. Or at the least quite a challenge. Upon completing Body Revolution you may find all these funny things poking out or dipping in that were NOT there prior to Body Revolution. I believe they may just be bones and muscles, but I'm no expert. Seriously, get a good razor and be careful.
4. Too much time. If you are someone (as I was) that thinks you need to spend at least an hour+ a day working out you will find you have too much extra time on your hands. These workouts are only around 30 minutes. If you're one of these people I would suggest planning ahead. Pick up a new book or hobby maybe? Don't be stuck twiddling your thumbs.
3. Cussing. Or cursing, whichever you prefer. Even if you're not the type for it, you may just find yourself flinging the occasional curse word at the screen during these workouts. I tried my best, but from time to time I found a stray expletive escaping my lips. If you're someone prone to f-bombs it may be safest to clear the children and the elderly from the room before beginning your workout.
2. Alienating your friends and family. This one shocked me the most: you may find that your friends and family will in fact tire of all your flexing and showing off of your new-found muscles. Delighted shouts of: "Look, look at this muscle!" may begin to garner head shakes and eye-rolls. I know hubby is entirely tired of me showing him my biceps. Although my 9 year old still thinks it's cool, so reactions may be mixed, go ahead and test the waters here.
1. Money. Yep, you read that right: cost. This is a very expensive program. Oh, I'm not talking about the cost of buying it...no. I'm talking about the fact that I now need an entire new wardrobe. Everything! Workout clothes, jeans, bras, sports bras, even my wedding ring is now too big! Although, to be fair my ring was a bit big before, but now it's just plain falling off. I blame Jillian Michaels for all of this. Yes, the expense of this program is deceiving and can really add up fast.
Tragic, just tragic. What was Jillian thinking?! Just another case of tough trainer, good program, awesome results. It's sad people, just sad...
OK, OK, I'll be back with my final Body Revolution results tomorrow and my real review of Body Revolution the day after!
