No so fishy-fish nutrition

Chris Carmichael and Jim Rutberg have a really great and interesting post on correctly preparing and cooking fish at Train Right. It focuses on how easy it is to cook simple fish dishes:

...[F]or both the high quality protein and heart-healthy fat that comes with it. But most people I know aren’t too familiar with preparing it and wrongly assume that it requires some special touch.

Cod is great for those who like a milder, less “fishy”–tasting fish, yet it sill packs the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid punch of other cold-water fish like salmon, tuna, and halibut. The recipe below goes well with shredded cabbage or lettuce and warm corn tortillas or served over a bed of brown rice. Leftovers can be used in tacos, salads, or in a sandwich.


Mmm fish.

I've been following an endurance fitness meal plan of Chris Carmichael's to help get my body what it needs and burn more than im eating, in preparation for my Israeli Rider and Peru challenge's. He's the guy that trained Lance Armstrong (the 7-time tour de france winner (if you didn't know)) pre and post-cancer and certainly know's what he's talking about when it comes to training. Currently im eating around 2,800 calories a day and buring somewhere between 800-850 at the gym or on the bike. All i seem to be doing these days is eat, sleep and train, oh and a little working ('blogging') in between ;) hehe.

That's all for now, time for more food ;)
