Fitness & Carbs via Instagram

And it's Monday!  :)

This morning I was sooo sleepy... but I still managed to pull off a nice quick session in the Gym, focusing on shoulders and triceps.

Todays Session:
Treadmill 10 minute warm-up
Shoulder Press - Barbell
Side Lateral Raise - Dumbbell
Forward bent side Lateral Raise - Seated
Tricep Pushdowns - Straight Bar
Tricep Extensions - Dumbbell
Tricep Kickbacks - Dumbbell



I think this work-out took only 25 minutes, so a nice quick morning session before starting the day.  shorter breaks, faster paced, more intense - who says you can't get in a nice session in the morning?  :)



Good thing that I managed to kick myself out the door, considering all the yummy stuff I've been enjoying this weekend! 




We went to Low Carb & Coffee in Oslo that had the most amazing blueberry cake and carrot muffins - how on earth do they make them that yummy?  It's a very small and quirky coffee shop located on a street corner close to the castle in Oslo. Definitely worth popping by if you're in the area and interested in low carb food.

We tried out the restaurant Bamboo at Sagene for dinner.  They had a large variety of different types of Asian cuisine, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, Sushi, Vegirarian - you had a lot of options.  I tried out their "And a la Saigon", which was really tasty.

You should try it out if you're in the area.  :)


Alright, now it's time for me to get back to the knitting videos.   :)
Hope you're having a great start to the week!

Picture Moments - Carbs via Instagram!

Hope you guys all had a great weekend!

I'm as usual taking tons of pictures - I literally have an enormous pile waiting for me to go through to put on the blog - and I decided to share some of the weekends highlights with you by creating a simple collage of some Instagram shots of mine.


It was such a wonderful weekend, with Sushi at "RAW" in Drammen by the Ypsilon bridge at "Papirbredden" - I would so recommend anyone to pop by there if you get the chance.  Amazing Tempura Maki!  I actually got chills while eating it!  (Must be my body reacting to all the carbs... :P)

Some heavy work-out sessions were followed by medium rare beef with sweet potato fries, some port wine and dark chocolate - heaven! A wonderful and carb packed weekend! :)  I'm back to my normal again now though, but everyone should lean back and relax at times with some yummy food, carbs or no carbs.

Anyways, I'll be posing the translated version of the recipe for the Skappel sweater either today or tomorrow! Stay tuned!

Have a great Monday!
