Meal prep is the secret weapon of all those effortlessly fit celebrities who roam around LA-it's what many of the top private chefs do to keep their clients on track and happy. Meal prep makes it easy to have a perfectly portioned, low-calorie, whole food meal at your fingertips any time. By meal prepping on the weekends and dividing meals into just-right, calorie-controlled portions, it's just as easy to grab your prepped Korean bibimbap bowl on a busy weeknight as it is to grab a store-bought, sodium-laden version or a take-out, high-calorie version.

The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a difference between the overarm (OA) and the sidearm (SA) throwing styles in softball players. The movement time (ball contact to release), flight time (release to target contact) and total time (ball contact to target contact) were measured in 31 Division I collegiate female, right-handed softball infielders. The participants each completed 10 fielding and throwing trials (5 SA and 5 OA) in a ¿game-like situation¿. The results showed the SA movement time is quicker than the OA movement time, the SA flight time is slower than the OA flight time, and the SA total time is quicker than the OA total time, demonstrating that the SA throwing style is quicker. Common SA mechanics were then investigated examining three groups of SA throws, fast, moderate and slow SA throws. The results indicate a significant difference between the fast, moderate and slow SA throwing groups in areas of movement time, flight time and specific mechanics such as wind-up phase, stride phase and trunk lean at release of the ball. With these results, recommendations can be made to improve upon and make the SA throw a more efficient throwing technique.
