I just came across the article Lab-grown human tissue flexes its muscles for the first time and had to record it. I’ve held back from sharing my hard core body nerd fetish that you see on my other blogs create.fit2thrive.co.uk and colchambers.blogspot.co.uk but now I think I can safely share it.
How do I earn revenue from this blog so I can do a better job?
That is the question I keep asking myself. Both Google and Facebook do such a good job because they found ways to fund the work that was necessary to do a good job and the same applies to everyone else. So, I need to find a way to make this blog pay simply because that would mean I could spend …
Play Care
Tell me what you think of this phrase. We think of day care and we think of people taking care of our children or even as ourselves looking after our kids.
Why I know I get enough vitamins and what to do if I don’t
It occurred to me that most people think they need vitamins and blindly change their diet confident that it will make them feel better. The truth is usually that your body is wildly more complex than you probably realise so you often cause more harm than good.
3 reasons why I don’t suffer with pain!!!
I’m always fascinated with what each of us puts up with when other people don’t because we all make different decisions which lead to our different lives. One decision that I have always made is not to suffer with pain and today I realised that you might be interested in how I do that. So here goes….
Workout while learning
I’m pushing myself to produce a short course on metabolism because I want to produce it in a way that is new for me. I want to use video because I like the idea of going back to being a gym instructor and personal trainer. I can say so much more when I don’t have to write it down so …
Roasted pear and fruit sour dough cream tea
After making a roasted apple cream tea I just had to try roasted pear and that was just as heavenly!!! It was an improvised cream tea of fruit sour dough creme fraiche with black currant jam and roasted pear
Sleep: Natures fixer
Workouts are how you get strong right? Wrong!!! Yep, despite all the emphasis on lifting weights, running and all manner of ways to push your body not one of these things actually makes you stronger.
How to make your work life healthy?
When I started Fit2Thrive I wanted to do a series of articles exploring how to embed healthy routines, including plenty of movement, into different lifestyles and occupations. People ask me how a lawyer, journalist, teacher or software developer could move throughout their day and they are surprised how many simple and easy answers I have.
Use grapes as a sauce for a Blackberry lattice pie
I’m just trying to challenge your preconceptions. I’ve been looking for ways to spice up dessert and options other than cream. Creme fraiche is becoming a staple but I still wanted something else so I don’t get bored.
The best health resources
A set of posts I want to write are about the amazing people and references I have come across over time. I have learnt so much from these guys that I use to make every day more special so I want you to be able to benefit as I do.
Next steps: More posts or less?
So I’ve been thinking about the next steps for Fit2Thrive. I like a lot of the posts that I’ve created so far but I still need to explain more clearly the message behind the site. You see, for years I have been exploring human health and been convinced that there are easy ways to achieve great health for most people …
The day I learned my grandad worked with a genius
It’s not everyday that you find out that your grandad worked alongside a world renowned genius. I’m not sure how much you know about Milton Keynes, the city in which I live, but it continually astounds me that it is actually world famous. Not in an obvious way because plenty of people in the UK wouldn’t know where it is …
A quiet Sunday walk
This is a view from one of the many parks in Milton Keynes. I took a stroll along the river and enjoyed the scenery and it did me so much good. It calmed me down and relieved the stress I was feeling. I felt the sun on my face and wind in my hair. Yes this is cliche but it …

Roasted apple cream tea
I love fruit but I can get bored of it so I’m experimenting with ways to make it a little more exciting. This example is by cooking it to change its flavour and texture to make for a different experience.
Are you in touch with yourself?
I don’t think there is anything wrong with the modern world what I think is wrong is how little we all know about ourselves. You see, I started to explain the basics behind fat loss to my wife and that led me to the core biological process behind metabolism. It’s no more complex than explaining photosynthesis yet it overwhelmed her.
Big Hero 6 movie review by a dad of a 3 year old
Big Hero 6 was a film I wanted to see right from the first time I saw the trailer and one of the best things about having a 3 year old boy is that I get to watch kids films like this.
The beauty in a walk
Another photo from another walk. This is I believe a 12th century church reminding us brits of the norman conquest. It is also a pretty building in a lovely landscape. I had a little fun trying a black and white filter and in trying to find a good composition for the shot because I am a real beginner. It also …
Do you use fruit as a vitamin drink?
I’m not talking fruit juice. I’m talking fruit you buy at the grocers or super market or get in the garden. Apples. Pears. Oranges. Jut a simple point but when you want a drink your pour yourself something don’t you. A tea or coffee. A milkshake or got chocolate or just plain water or maybe a fruit juice. You are …
