Recipe of the Week:
Time for seafood! try out this Baked Cod recipe!
Ingredients:
8 4-oz Cod fillets (preferably thawed)
1/4 cup Unsalted butter
1 medium Lemon (juiced and zested; see notes*)
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
3/4 tsp Sea salt
1/4 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions:
STEP 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). You can bake the cod fillets from frozen or thaw them first in a bowl of cold water. (I prefer thawing if you have time, as it makes it easier to brush on the butter without solidifying.)
Step 2
Use paper towels to pat the cod fillets dry. Arrange them in a single layer in a 9×13 baking dish.
STEP 3
In a small bowl in the microwave or saucepan on the stove, melt the butter. Remove from heat. Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest.
STEP 4
Brush the lemon butter over the cod fillets. Season with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Flip and repeat both lemon butter and seasoning on the other side.
STEP 5
Bake for 12-15 minutes (will vary by thickness), until the baked cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.

Nutrition of the Week:
As we gear up for the Apollo Games happening on OCTOBER 14th, I’d like you to think about what your current training plan is and how do you anticipate your current training changing (if at all) to prepare for the competition. (Adding in extra practice, 2+ workouts a day, etc)
Think about your goals for the comp: are you looking to set a PR for the lifting complex? Do you want to increase your aerobic capacity? Are you looking to improve your overall health/fitness?
Where are you at with your nutrition right now? (Tracking macros, eating ‘clean’, nothing at all). Have you done a competition before? What went well? Were you able to eat the day of, or did nerves get the best of you? How did you feel the day after?
If you are starting from the beginning, my goal for you this week is to begin eating protein at each meal, with a good goal being roughly your bodyweight or goal bodyweight in grams of protein. You can also think of it as including a portion of protein at each meal about the size of your palm.
