Protein all the rage for (Mr) men and women of a certain age

Canberra Times6 days ago

It's difficult to stay across the health status of eggs - it seems to change from week to week - but all the science I need to convince me we're on the right track can be found in the Mr. Men TV series where Mr Strong eats, like, a lot of eggs - a regime which enables him to turn an entire barn upside down, fill it with water and use it to extinguish a blazing corn field.

Fitness couple swaps the beach for the Hinterland

Gold Coast fitness couple Ash and Laura Minchin are moving their young family across the border after snapping up a stunning Tweed Hinterland home. The Minchins – who recently opened a new Strong Pilates Studio at Robina, adding to their centres at Southport, Burleigh Heads and Gladesville in Sydney – are swapping Kirra for Carool in northern NSW. They paid $2.35m for the five-bedroom 'Coomalie Park' homestead. While their beachside apartment offered plenty of living area, the rolling lawns and views out to the southern Coast won over the busy couple. 'When we first saw the property, we could imagine having a coffee in the morning or a wine in the afternoon, looking out to the coast with our super-active girls playing in front of us on the lawn,' said Ms Minchin. 'It's a beautiful home and we just couldn't stop thinking about the lifestyle it would offer our family.'

'Premium acreage living remains in-demand and Coomalie Park attracted strong inquiry during the campaign,' Ms Lynch said. 'It sits on an elevated aspect with stunning views to the city's southern coastline. 'Floor-to-ceiling windows in the main living areas capture the hinterland setting that surrounds the property. 'It's a blend of nature and contemporary design.' The main residence includes four bedrooms while a self-contained pool house offers a luxurious guest retreat. Ms Minchin said the pool house would be particularly useful in accommodating visiting overseas and interstate family and friends. The Minchins are originally from Sydney, where commuting an hour each way for work was common, so living across the border wasn't an issue. 'Some people have a mindset that you'd never want to live in NSW because it's too far away,' said Ms Minchin. 'But we're still only 25 minutes to the southern end of the Gold Coast and 40 minutes to our new Robina studio.' Ms Minchin said Pilates was the fastest growing fitness industry in Australia. 'Pilates is often put into the same basket as yoga, but Strong Pilates is completely different,' she said. 'With Strong Pilates, it's somewhat of a hybrid of cardio, strength and conditioning. 'It's extremely popular among women but we are attracting a lot of men, as well. 'And those men are giving up their gym memberships after trying Strong Pilates because they are getting a full muscle workout, as well.'
