Testimonial time!

The picture on the left is the one I took this morning the picture on the right is from 10 years ago when I was about three weeks out from my first and only figure competition.

Body weight is the same. This came up in my timeline and I wanted to share it because to get down to what you see in that picture I did 90 minutes of cardio every day. I eat to Lapierre and green beans for 14 weeks and I was 100% miserable.

I was hungry all the time I hated the experience and it was incredibly hard & I still came in last in my class.

Fast forward 10 years I’m far more muscular with a lot less cardio and a lot more food and feel like the last year to have been the best I’ve looked in my entire life, all of that is thanks to Jennie Roberts / Valkyrie Athletics.

Thank you Zee Perez!

CONGRATULATIONS to Valkyrie Athlete Emily Elliott for securing her PRO STRONGMAN CARD at the Arnold today!!!!! This was her 1st trip to the Arnold - what an amazing experience for her! We are so proud of you!

Congratulations to Valkyrie athlete Emily who slid right into weigh ins this morning for her Strongman competition at the Arnold Sports Festival. Proud of you fur-mama!!!

For this weight manipulation we started out at 148.3, 5 days ago with the goal of getting her as close to 140.8 (just under). We had her eating a diet of 1800+ calories all the way into weigh ins. No saunas involved. She weighed in at 139.7 this morning (140.3 with clothes on). Another weight cut success!!!!

Congrats lovey!!! Time to have fun!

These Teriyaki Salmon Bowls come together quickly for a healthy and delicious weeknight meal. Bake the salmon and broccoli together, then serve in a bowl with rice, veggies and creamy avocado.

1/3 cup teriyaki sauce (use recipe below or San-J Teriyaki)

2 (4-ounce) salmon fillets

3 cups chopped broccoli florets

1/2 Tablespoon avocado or melted coconut oil

1 cup cooked white or brown rice

1 cup shredded red cabbage

1/2 cup shredded carrots

1/2 bunch green onions, chopped

1/2 avocado, quartered and sliced

1 lime, quartered

In a shallow baking dish, pour 1/4 cup of the teriyaki sauce over salmon fillets and use a spoon to make sure each piece is coated. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, but up to four hours. Meanwhile toss chopped broccoli with oil and a bit of sea salt.

Preheat oven to 425ºF and lightly grease a baking sheet.

Place marinated salmon fillets (skin side down) on one half of the prepared baking sheet and add broccoli to the other half.

Bake until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily and broccoli is roasted, about 15-20 minutes. Cook or reheat rice while the salmon and broccoli are baking.

Grab two bowls, add rice and top each with a fillet of salmon, cabbage, carrots, green onions, avocado, a squeeze of lime and a drizzle of remaining teriyaki sauce. Top each salmon filet with a sprinkle of sesame seeds, if using. Serve immediately.

You've gotta try this foodgasmic dish we whipped up tonight!
.
We used 1 organic spaghetti squash delivered straight from @farmfreshtoyou plus 1 package of grassfed ground bison and half a jar of vodka sauce.
.
Bake the spaghetti squash on 460 NOT from a preheated oven. Put it in after you've cut it in half and scooped out the seeds, and then start the oven. You can dress it up beforehand however you like. In this case, we brushed the inside with avocado oil, sprinkled with salt and cut fresh sprigs of rosemary right from our yard and stuffed them inside. Depending on how large your squash is could take anywhere from 30-50 minutes.
.
Cook the bison and mix in the sauce then set aside.
.
Then when the squash comes out, place in a fancy dish and stuff the top with your bison mixture and VOILA!
