Protein
Protein is every bodybuilder’s favorite macronutrient and for good reason. Protein is extremely essential, super satiating and amazingly anabolic. Typically people try to get their protein through food, preferably animal sources which are complete proteins. This a natural first step and very important. However, hard-training athletes and weekend warriors require about 20-to-30 percent of their daily caloric intake from protein, which typically requires eating every 3-4 hours. This can be time-consuming and expensive-- which is where protein supplements come in handy.

Available at utime Fitness Studios in Kennedy Town
Diet Protein Truffles™ are hand-crafted using award-winning premium whey protein. This includes infusing the protein blend with microencapsulated CLA, acetyl L-carnitine and fat-reduced cocoa powder to create a great tasting snack.
Protein supplements act fast and enable you to comfortably and affordably meet your daily protein goals, even when you're busy at work. Post-workout, protein supplements may be even more beneficial than food, particularly whey protein. Because whey protein is digested quickly and easily, it's the ideal post-workout protein source.
Fitness takes both time and hard work to achieve, in addition to frequent workouts at utime Fitness Studios, a well-designed food and supplement programme is a must for those serious about fitness. Stop by utime Fitness Studios in Kennedy Town today!

Asian Youth Orchestra’s Violin Beginner Tips


ayo1b.jpg

The Asian Youth Orchestra offers young, talented musicians from across Asia the opportunity for advanced study, performance and international concert tours with celebrated artists and conductors. Each year the Asian Youth Orchestra recruits some of the finest pre-professional violin performers. It takes dedication and passion to learn how to play the violin, and be able to offer a stunning performance like the Asian Youth Orchestra musicians.  The first sounds will obviously not be very pleasing, but with continued practice, you will be able to offer an improved performance. As a beginner, you can increase your odds of success by following some fundamental guiding tips.

Here are some of the tips you need to know when learning how to play the Violin.

SHIHO TAKASHIMA (Japan, violin), University of Yamanashi
"My father made this violin for me in 2005. It is my treasure and trusted partner. I am so honored to be able to bring it with me with AYO this year all around the world."
Have a Pre Determined Practice Schedule
It is good that you have a proper plan and adhere to it. Consider training at the same time every day, this can help you maintain your schedule so there are no excuses to skip your practice. A firm practicing schedule helps your skills grow and shows results faster. As you start to see results, you’ll be motivated to practice more and more-- your playing will become even more rewarding!
Finger Exercises
As a beginner, you should not neglect finger exercises, this helps to prepare your muscles in readiness for the practice and lessons. Many beginners do not recognize the importance of regular exercises and can end up developing acute and chronic repetitive motion injuries, which in turn, affect the learning cycle. It is also recommended that you take pauses regularly while practicing so that your muscles and fingers can stretch and avoid cramps-- which are some of the challenges that beginner violin players face.

LEIGH CELLANO (The Philippines, violin) What do you like about the AYO best?
"The harmony and the people. Even though we have language barriers, when we talk, it feels like through music we are one."
Keep Learning and Have Fun
When playing any musical instrument, you should continue exploring new types of music to enhance your mastery. Experiment with beats, melody, harmony, and song structure. Most importantly, have fun, stay relaxed and enjoy yourself!

You can find more #AYOHK Violin Tips in our earlier blog, found here. Be sure to follow Asian Youth Orchestra on Facebook and Instagram for details on the upcoming 2018 Auditions and more. 2018 AYO Audition info has been announced! Click here

Recipe: Slow-Roasted Scan Pork with Apple Mustard


hks3a.jpeg


Executive Chef Jaakko Sorsa carefully prepared mini-appetizers of his Slow-Roasted Pork with Apple Mustard recipe, using Scan flower-fed pork, for shoppers at Taste ParknShop in Kowloon recently. This was the launch of Scan pork into ParknShop Supermarkets across Hong Kong! To further celebrate, Scan is having tastings of their tender and tasty pork every weekend this year at various ParknShop locations across Hong Kong. Please follow Scan on Facebook for updates on specific location details.

Scan’s award-winning flower-fed pork has been featured in over 40 restaurants across Hong Kong since their debut in January 2016. And now you can make this delicious, extremely tender Slow-Roasted Pork with Apple Mustard recipe at home! We have the recipe for you below.
hks3.JPG
Whether you cook your pork on the stovetop, bake it in the oven, or grill it, be sure you're not making one of these common mistakes the next time pork chops are on the menu.
  • Take your Scan pork out of the fridge about 20 minutes prior to cooking. Bringing the meat up to room temperature helps it cook more evenly throughout.
  • Seasoning your meat with salt before cooking is essential to bring out the meat's natural flavors. Season generously. You may also consider using a brine, even a very short brine (30 minutes!) will improve the taste and texture of the meat.
  • Cook your pork until the internal temperature reaches 65°C / 145°F (with a light pink center) followed by a 3-minute rest time.
Now, you are ready to prepare Pan-fried Pork Collar Mini Steaks, with a homemade Apple Mustard sauce! Simply click here to see the recipe on our website: Pan-fried Pork Collar Mini Steaks with Apple Mustard.

We’d love to see your meals, so be sure to take photos and tag #TasteofScan on Facebook and Instagram!
No matter if you prefer your pork with a little extra heat or a little extra sweet; or whatever your favorite flavoring may be, Scan’s flower-fed Omega 3 pork is the way to go! It’s the premium pork you and your family deserve. Bon Appetit!
