Grain bowl alert: @supergreek.sg has just opened at B1-54 Raffles City, specializing in Greek cuisine that’s predominantly plant-based, and focused on lean meats, seafood and olive oil. The grain bowls are thoughtfully constructed, and come with the most delicious, made-from-scratch hummus, sauces and vinaigrettes we’ve tasted 😋
.
Our favourites are the Roasted Barramundi bowl with quinoa, served with an appetizing Parmigiano (cheese-based) sauce, and the Grilled Chicken Steak bowl with quinoa that comes with yogurt avocado sauce, hummus and Greek vinaigrette. Besides the yummy condiments, we really dig the veggies 🥦🌽🍅🥒🍠that are roasted to perfection for that heavenly charred flavour.
.
When you’re there, be sure to try Supergreek’s homemade Greek yogurt. It’s triple-strained to remove the whey after fermentation, and tastes creamier and cleaner than the store-bought ones. 👍🏼👍🏼 We can’t wait to be back again!
.
For those counting macros, you’ll be thrilled to know that all menu items come with nutrient info (calories, protein, fat, carbs).

Eating more 🍉🍌🍓 and doing 🤸🏻‍♂️🏋🏻‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️ regularly are great, but it doesn’t mean you’re safe from chronic diseases such as diabetes. There’s a silent precursor called pre-diabetes, that can affect you for years without you even knowing. 🤭 The good news is, pre-diabetes is reversible.

Happy Workout Wednesday!

Add some oomph to your HIIT workout with a dose of martial arts. @kiss92fm radio deejay @yeecharmaine demos these kick-ass Muay Thai-inspired moves, designed by Grace Huang (@thehuangergames) of @neuefit. You’ll push your limits, heart rate and calorie burn at the same time. And of course, feel super badass while at it!

THE PLAN
Follow the instructions for these sections in order.
* Warm-up
* Group A
* Group B
* Group C

WARM-UP (6 minutes)
Do each exercise for 15 seconds in this order without rest. Complete three sets with 30 seconds rest in between.
* Bicycle Crunch
* Mountain Climbers
* Push-up
* Squat
* Split Lunge
* Burpee

THE WORKOUT (14 minutes)
Do each exercise AMRAP for 30 seconds, back to back. Rest for 10 seconds after completing each group. Aim to finish three sets. To increase intensity, eliminate rest time. Add 20 seconds of rest between each group for lower intensity.

GROUP A
1. Block squat
2. Back lunge push kick
3. Forward lunge knee raise

GROUP B
4. Uppercut burpee
5. Boxer sit-up
6. Jumping jack punches

GROUP C
7. Alternate skip knees
8. Inchworm elbow strikes
9. Narrow to wide push-up + Punch + Knee raise
