Welcome to my blog: Protein POW! dot com ;-)
Let me start by telling you how it all started: Protein Pow was founded by yours truly, Anna Sward, in late January of 2011. It was born one day, when, chatting to my friend Stina, she suggested I start a blog as a break from my (unrelated to fitness and nutrition) PhD.
"You need a creative outlet to maintain your sanity while you work on finishing your thesis!" she said and I agreed. Also, I thought, what better way to flex one's writing muscles than by actually writing on a daily basis, even if it is about something completely different?
But right away I ran into a problem: I didn't know what to write about. Diary-type blogging didn't inspire me and I didn't think tracking the minutia of my daily thoughts would make for engaging writing - let alone reading...
"Well," Stina said, "what do you LOVE to do in your free time?" This blog is my answer ;-) It's born out of my dedication to three interdependent passions: exercise (i.a. weightlifting), cooking (healthy and finger-lickingly-delicious food), and (functional) nutrition! In a nutshell, it's a blog devoted to healthy protein powder-based recipes. It's just me playing around with my protein powders, coming up with recipes for them, and generally making a (relative) mess out of my kitchen before and after every workout - from kitchen to war-zone to kitchen again.
