The Dad Fitness Snack Wrap

I hobbled to the gym this morning, as my legs are brutally sore from Monday's workout.

I only did a couple sets of squats, lunges and deadlifts, but I guess after a couple weeks off that's what I get.

This morning I did Back and Biceps and kept it very light and conservative. Just want to introduce my muscles to moving again.

Wide-Grip Pulldowns, 3 sets of 8 reps
Bent DB Rows, 2 sets of 10 reps
DB Shrugs, 2 sets of 10 reps
DB Curls, 2 sets of 8 reps
Reverse Curls, 2 sets of 6 reps
Standing Calf Raises, 2 sets of 8 reps

As for my post-workout meal I made my own version of all the snacks wraps you see from all the fast-foods chains these days.

It's a hell of a lot healthier and just as tasty!

I used a new Shake & Bake flavor called Ranch Crusted. It gives the flavor of Ranch dressing without the calories.

I used 2 chicken breasts sliced up and coated with Shake & Bake.

Baked it for 30 mins at 400 deg.

Rolled 2 strips in a whole wheat tortilla with spinach, spring mix, sprinkle of cheese and spoonful of salsa.

"It's way better than fast food, it's the Dad Fitness Snack Wrap"

and just to show you it's never too early to start your kids off with exercise.

Here is my 4 month old daughter Matea in her exercise gym.

I love the track suit!
