When you think of a city, your first thoughts aren’t about the buildings, the lights and the streets. You think of the heart of the city- the culture. You think of your favorite places to gather with friends and talk over drinks and great food. You think of the memories you’ve had in these places that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

While Ames has a mere population of 50,000, more than half of which are students, the variety of culture to experience is everything but lacking. From exotic Asian cuisine to all-Amer-ican sports bars, there’s a little something to satisfy anyone’s taste buds.

Trying all of the restaurants

and bars in Ames would be a chal-lenge in itself, but the experience would be an adventure never to be forgotten. Grab your laptop and head to a quaint coffee shop to do some studying. Ask a brave friend to come with you to try a new kind of foreign food. Watch the game with a group of buddies over a pint of beer and appetizers at a local sports bar. Whatever you do, you won’t have trouble finding a place to get out and do it.

So open up your mind and get ready to experience everything that Ames culture has to offer. AmesEats is our guide for you to choose where to go for that latte craving, that spot to hang out with friends, or that place to expand your dining horizons.

A guide to your dose of culture in Ames

There are many worries when coming to college, making friends, finding your classes, getting good grades. A not so com-mon worry: the freshman fifteen. The all-you-can-eat dining centers combined with sleepless nights and stressful days can pack on the pounds for a college freshman. Well we are here to help! Dailyburn.com is a free fitness Website that focuses on social net-working and community interaction. Kate Brown, certified fitness trainer and head trainer for Dailyburn.com shared some

foods to avoid in the dining halls, energizing study snacks and the perfect study break workout.

There are so many food temptations in the dining halls, around campus and off cam-pus that are often hard to resist. When mom and dad are no longer cooking for you or watching over what you eat, it’s easy to gain weight. A few foods students should consider staying away from to avoid weight gain are:

Bottled Coffee Drinks: Sure, it may be tempting to grab one on the

way to class, but these drinks come with a hefty health cost. At an average of 32 grams of sugar per bottle, these drinks are closer to soda than real coffee! Try an iced coffee with skim milk instead.

SALAD DRESSINGS You may think that you are doing yourself a favor by loading up at the salad bar. But, if you slather your veggies in salad dressing, you could be adding an extra 200 – 300 cal-ories to your meal. Instead, use a lite dress-ing or balsamic vinegar, which will add fla-vor without adding too many calories.

Energy Bars: On occasion, prepackaged energy bars can make a suitable breakfast if you are in a pinch and you are literally running on emp-ty, but these bars are high in sugar. Even bars that contain added protein and fiber are little more than candy bars mixed with whey protein. Instead, keep a small bag of almonds and raisins in your bag for emer-gency noshing.

“Homestyle” Meals:Just because your Mom made the best mashed potatoes in the world doesn’t mean that campus food services does. Many schools contract out their dining services to huge companies. These companies know how to be as efficient as possible which means that the mashed potatoes are more likely to be heavily processed and not the creamy, fresh mashed potatoes with real butter that you find yourself longing for af-ter an especially hard mid-term exam. For a healthier alternative, grab a baked potato, mash up the inside, and add a little butter or a dollop of sour cream.

In addition to eating right, students should make a conscious effort to do some kind of physical activity. It doesn’t always have to mean heading to the gym, sometimes simple exercise in the comfort of your own room can do the trick. Following are exer-cises students can do during a 15-minute study break:

Bench Dips:Face away from your desk chair, and use your hands to support your weight behind you as you stretch your legs out in front of you. Cross one foot over the other. Slowly lower your body toward the floor by bend-ing your elbows until your upper arms and forearms form a right angle. Do not go be-low a 90-degree angle, as this can stress your shoulders. Slowly rise back up to the start position by straightening your arms.

Toe Touches: Lie with your back on the floor and el-evate your legs up into the air. Make sure you keep your lower back pressed flat into the ground. Exhale and crunch forward to touch your toes (touching any part of your foot will work!) Remember, don’t pull your chin down toward your chest.

Pushups: Position yourself so that your hands are directly below your shoulders and toes are on the ground. Hold your body up with a

straight back. Keep your head back and lower your chest down toward the ground. When you feel a good stretch in your chest and shoulders hold for 1 second and press up back to the starting position.

Bird Dogs: Start on all fours with your hands under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Brace your abdominals and extend one leg straight back and the opposite arm straight out. Hold this position for 2 sec-onds and lower back down to the floor.

Wall Sits: Lean with your back flat against a wall with your knees bent at a 90-degree angle. Hold this position as long as you can. Although this exercise looks easy, this killer isomet-ric exercise will strengthen your quads and glutes.

Do all exercises in three sets as a circuit, and you’ll surely feel the burn within 15 minutes!
