SWEET CHEEKS HQ
ByWhere do you go for sound nutritional advice, humor, recipes and the occasional nutritional challenge? Personally I head over Sweet Cheeks Head Quarters, LINK where the kitchen is always humming and ideas are a flowin’. Run by CrossFitters extraordinaire Shirley Brown and frequent CPC visitor Alyssa “A-Train” Dazet, Sweet Cheeks HQ is an awesome blog run by people in the same boat that we are. Alyssa combines Traditional Chinese Nutrition, Western Nutrition along with recipes that she and Shirley have grown up with. They work, train, go to school and lead busy lives, so you know that the recipes are going to be fast and easy. If they make a mistake cooking something, they write about it. If they decided halfway through a recipe to stop and do handstand pushups, they photograph it. Even if you don’t like to cook, there’s no shortage of laughter from reading of their exploits. Fueled by mass giggles, a deadlifting prowess that would put most of us to shame and of course, their famous “cheeks”, Sweet Cheeks HQ is here to stay and taking the world by storm. Check them out!!

Traver you couldn’t have written that better, their site is awesome, and A-Train with her unbelievably impressive dead lift (and cheeks!) is awesome!
I read about Shirly teaching the Good Cop/ Bad Cop class of 45 min of Crossfit followed by 45 min of Yoga… it sounds amazing, we should have a class like that

Thanks KJ!!
The myth of my deadlift is spreading, I better get working on it!!
And the good cop/bad cop classes are the perfect pair. Sweet Cheeks would love to come teach one at CPC! But we may need to rename it Sweet Cheek/Bad Ass.

KJ – We’re working on it as we speak. (but it might be during your work hours…until your cakeball business explodes!
