Unleash Your Inner Power: The Key to Optimal Fitness and Wellness - A Wolfpack Performance Interview (Part 2) In part 2 of my interview, we talked about food and getting started. You’ve started growing veges. How did this come about? We had some space in the yard, and I wanted to do something but didn’t know what to do. I reached out to Stephen Goses, the mobility movement maestro at Farm Collective. The Wolfpack Performance community met with him and learnt about working with the land and working together to create crops. We’ve had a couple of events there, and I’ve also applied what I’ve been learning in my own backyard.    What’s a typical meal for you? I’m on an animal-based diet, so the majority of my meals are meats and fish, and occasionally I’ll have some vegetables and other carb sources.  I’m not really

Last year was different, it was one that I could not have imagined for obvious reasons and one I hadn’t considered. By the end of the year, I was feeling flat, tired, and a few kilos heavier so I decided something had to change. I reached out to Nick from Wolfpack Performance and started working with him virtually to feel better, move better again, and just be well. I've noticed changes physically and mentally after working with Nick for 6 weeks and I wanted to share some information about Wolfpack Performance and what he does. So without further ado

Every day, many people expose themselves to hundreds of different chemicals in the things they use without giving it a second thought. Chemicals are used in skin, hair, body and personal care items to preserve them as a scent, active ingredient, or filler. These chemicals are also present in candles, furniture, clothes, and typical household items. Manufacturers and consumers find them cheap to buy, use, and readily available. The Hidden Dangers: Unveiling Chemicals in the Things We Use Common chemicals include Phthalates, Parabens, Talcum powder, Nanoparticles, Formaldehyde and formaldehyde donors, Lead acetate, Coal tar, UV filters, Triclosan, Resorcinol, Toluene, Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA).

Baking is a favourite pastime in my house and is a great time to switch out typical ingredients with something coconutty. I used coconut sugar instead of brown sugar in this choc chip cookie recipe and greased the tray with coconut oil. The coconut sugar adds richness to the taste of the choc chip cookies, and the coconut oil on the tray lends a slight coconut taste. 💡Tip for the day: Check if you have enough choc chips or something to use as an alternative, like a block of chocolate. 125g melted butter 1/2 cup of coconut sugar 1/3 cup of caster sugar 1 egg (room temperature) 1 tsp of vanilla essence 1.5 cups of self-raising flour 3/4 cup of choc chips or smashed block of chocolate A bit of coconut oil to grease the tray Method: Preheat the oven to 160 °C Line the pan

Coconut oils are excellent for food, drink, and personal care products. We can buy it as solid coconut oil or fractionated coconut oil. Many have used coconut oils for a long time in various ways due to their ability. The body can easily absorb it, and its anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties are beneficial, amongst other things. Fractionated and solid coconut oils can be refined, bleached, and deodorized, impacting their efficacy, smell, and appearance. Coconut oils, solid or liquid, are excellent sources of medium-chain triglycerides fatty acids, also known as MCTs.  "Fatty acids are the building blocks of the fat in our bodies and in the food we eat.

Fatty acid molecules are usually joined together in groups of three, forming a molecule called triglyceride.
