Treadmill

Kids are back in school, vacations are over, and everyone is back to the grind of regular workouts!  September has been a busy month at the gym!

New (to me) Treadmill!  I’ve added a treadmill to the gym and we’ve started using it for conditioning.  I will also, hopefully, be adding another squat rack and bar since more clients are squatting and deadlifting now.  My ladies are getting strong!

On-Your-Own Conditioning. . . the gym is now open for conditioning for clients during semi-private sessions or anytime I’ve got open hours.  Here are some of the rules . . . space is limited - Reservations or an appointment is required and I’ll have a workout ready. . . come in and work – kickboxing, jumprope, air dyne, treadmill, plate circuit, medball circuit, etc. . . the workout needs to be finished by the time the regular group is ready for conditioning.

Price Increase . . . Please note the price increases on our Pricing page – for new clients.  And, as always, for all clients who stay current, prices won’t increase.

For more information or if you are interested in training, please give me a call at 541-740-0448 or send me an email at bmacy@bamfitnesscoaching.com.


Wheat-free Banana Pancakes

Bob's Red Mill

This is my version of a recipe my  husband found on Mark’s Daily Apple – a great blog, by the way.  The original version is good, but, as always, I needed to tweak it to make it my own.

1 mashed, very ripe Banana
1 egg
1 heaping tablespoon of Almond Butter
1 tablespoon of Almond flour (Bob’s Red Mill)
Pinch of Penzey’s Cake Spice  

Mash the banana well and mix together all the ingredients.  Pour a small amount onto a medium hot skillet.  These pancakes do not “bubble” like normal pancakes, so you need to watch them closely.  Top with unsweetened applesauce, fruit, etc.  (I used a very light sprinkling of homemade vanilla sugar).

Normally, I eat an egg sandwich or scrambled eggs as my breakfast before I go for a bike ride.  I wanted to see if these would satisfy me and last me through a hard bike ride.  I can honestly say that after 1:10 of a hard bike ride that included wind and hills, I was fine.

Next time I make these, I’m going to make extra so I can test if they’ll hold up in the freezer.
