At-home Microorkouts In Two Minutes or Less

A lot of us get hung up on this idea of what an exercise session is supposed to look like: driving to a gym, taking a crowded class, or using special equipment. That mindset turns the simple act of moving your muscles into something you don’t have time for, something you’re too tired or sore to do today, something that seems too overwhelming for the moment you’re in right now. Don’t underestimate the power of short, at home workouts.

Kids at Home? 101 Activities to Keep Young Minds Occupied

Here’s the good news if you’re stressed about making sure your kids are still learning why they are at home: they are. Unstructured play is how kids learn about the world. Manipulating objects and trying things out, using their imaginations to role play different scenarios, and moving and challenging their bodies, kids learn how their bodies work, laws of physics, how to interact with other people, and more. Here's a long list of ideas to encourage structured and unstructured play, no matter how long stay-at-home mandates last.

Recipe: Peanut Butter Keto Donut Holes

Conceptually, cake donut holes are irresistible—tender and pillowy on the inside, thickly jacketed with powdered or granulated sugar, and small enough to justify indulging in more than one. We boosted our donut holes with collagen—our delicious Peanut Butter Collagen Fuel.

Ingredients:

1 scoop Primal Kitchen Collagen Drink Mix — Peanut Butter
1½ cups raw, unsalted macadamia nuts
Pinch of salt
Powdered monk fruit sweetener

Instructions

Blend the macadamia nuts, collagen and salt in a food processor until the nuts are smooth and have the consistency of dough. Stop processing before the nuts take on a looser, butter-like texture. Shape the dough into balls. If the dough isn’t holding its shape, refrigerate it for 30 minutes first. Place the donut holes on sheet pans and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. Remove the donut holes from the freezer. Shake out about a cup of powdered monk fruit onto a large plate. Roll donut holes in powdered monk fruit.
