A lovely noodle dish, popular amongs it’s citizens in Republic City due to it’s quick preperation time. And just like the titles states, these noodles are really cooked in an instant!
You don’t even need a stove to cook them! Convinient, eh? Because of that, this recipe falls under the category of mymini series of Avatar inspired food that can be cooked without a stove, to honor the people in college and such, as requested by the wonderful @daughterofthemoonslayer
And all you need to do to get my recipe for these noodely noodles, is to press Keep reading below! Enjoy cooking, my darling fireflakes!
Not as good as the ones they do in the Fire Nation, but quite tasty ;)
15 dl (6 cups) plain cornflakes 6 tbsp sunflower oil 1 - 1,5 tbsp smoked paprika powder 3 tbsp ground cumin 1 tesp chili flakes A good pinch of cayenne pepper Salt Ground black pepper 1 tbsp sugar 1 crushed garlic clove (it doesn’t make the flakes taste like garlic, I just think it gives them a nice punch. But if you don’t like garlic, it’s fine to exclude it)
Preheat an oven to 130 ºC (260 ºF)
Mix the corn flakes with the oil, put to the side. In a small bowl, mix the spices and sugar and garlic. Sprinkle the spicemix over the oiled cornflakes, mix well, make sure every flake is coated in spices. Taste, see if it needs more seasoning. Dress two trays with baking paper, and spead the flakes over them. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, until crisp and golden. Let cool down on the tray, store in a jar.
Some eaiser variations of push ups to help you build the strength to do a traditional one!
I don’t generally reblog ‘fitness’ stuff but gaddamn could I use some more arm strength.
Push-ups are my worst nightmare. I can only do 44 before I pass out on the floor.
“I can only do 44” hahaha omg I can’t even do one.
yes good
I was always frustrated how my P.E. teachers wanted all of us to go “all-or-none” and basically hurt ourselves without letting us build up from square-one like in the first gif. Then they’d fuckin yell at us for not doing it right >:|
Knee-pushups is not square-one.
When I got my first personal trainer, she had me doing push ups almost standing upright in the weight lifting bars so that I could do 15 reps and 3 sets of them. It’s more about the technique of the push up, and if you’re pushing too much weight, you can’t exersize the correct muscles within their tolerances. This post is pretty important tto know cause of that.
I was introduced to the knee push-up last year and it was such a fucking game changer. I had NO idea it was possible to work those same muscles just with a slight variation in position.
I wanna just verify that these are excellent for building strength, both as someone who took weights class in high school with a good teacher, and as someone who’s had a lifetime of physical therapy (not for my arms specifically, but I’ve spent a lot of time in sports medicine centers). And again, if the vertical one in the first gif is difficult, you don’t even have to lean into it like that. Start standing, and only lean as much as it takes you to lower towards the wall.
And remember, many exercises can be modified in this way! I did an image search for “modified pull up” and got exactly what I was looking for right away, which is this:
Doing pull ups on a lower bar, or from the straps with handles that gyms sometimes have (called the TRX - they can also be used to support yourself during squats and some balance exercises) is a lot easier than jumping straight into vertical pullups, and lets you build up that muscle with exercises that are still comfortable and safe for you, so you can do more sets of more reps.
As a general rule, always start with lower-strain exercises and practice good form before you work your way up. You don’t want to have to unlearn bad habits that could lead to injury later as the difficulty increases.
@imfemalewarrior I’m assuming you’ve seen this post but in case you haven’t—it seems like your kind of thing
Here are push up and pull up progressions!
-FemaleWarrior, She/They
Because I have serious issues with core strength and cannot do a sit up or a crunch without using muscles I shouldn’t and hurting myself, I looked up core exercises for beginners (because modified sit ups just have me ways to make it harder), and here’s what I found.
All from here, which also includes sit ups with the idea that you start up and don’t go all the way down.
This stuff on the bottom is some of the stuff I do for physical therapy, can vouch for it
