As we settle into full-swing Hoodie SEAZN, I’ve officially stored away my crop tops—they won’t see the light of day until March 2025. With the welcomed shift, I’m leaning all the way into bulking season. This means I’m happily loading up on carbs, indulging in my favorite comfort foods like mac and cheese, pizza, and, of course, the legendary Thomas’ English Muffins. While I’m all for enjoying these carb-filled goodies, I’m still an anti-added sugar advocate, so my sweet treats come naturally (hello, fruit!).
“Bulking season is when athletes are in a caloric surplus (usually for multiple months) in order to gain weight. Typically, bulking season takes place during the winter months when it’s colder and people are wearing more clothing and are less concerned about having a beach-ready body”
The Iconic Thomas’ English Muffin – A Carb-Lover’s Dream
Now, where am I going with all this? Thomas’ English Muffins, of course! They’re one of those foods that everyone tries to replicate, but none have succeeded, at least not in my book. The texture, the sourdough taste, the little crannies which holds Lankanto’s Maple Syrup with ease—there’s just nothing like them. Staying #dayclubready during Hoodie SEAZN means I get to enjoy these babies in my own iconic way. Here’s how I do it:
- Toasted, Plain – Simplicity reigns. Just toasted. That’s it.
- Toasted with the Works – I layer on a bit of Lankanto Maple Syrup, Laura Schudder’s crunchy peanut butter, and a Chobani unsweetened Greek yogurt single. It’s a bit of sweetness, crunch, and creaminess all at once, and it’s so fucking good.
Whether you’re keeping it plain or going all in with toppings, Thomas’ English Muffins are the perfect snack for Hoodie Season, helping me keep the carbs up while Staying #dayclubready and ready to take on more volume for leg day.
