Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Season the chicken breast (6 oz) with smoked paprika (½ tsp), garlic powder (¼ tsp), and salt and pepper to taste.
Wrap the chicken with bacon slices (2 slices), overlapping slightly to help them stay in place.
Place the chicken on a baking tray and roast on the middle shelf of the oven for 25–30 minutes, or until fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Bacon should be crisp and golden.
Meanwhile, prepare the salad by tossing baby leaves (1 cup) and halved cherry tomatoes (3) in a bowl.
Make the dressing by whisking together olive oil (1 Tbsp), apple cider vinegar (1 tsp), Dijon mustard (½ tsp), Italian seasoning (¼ tsp), and salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle over the salad just before serving.
Once the chicken is done, let it rest briefly, then serve it alongside the fresh dressed salad.
In this webinar for the Broken Science Initiative Medical Society, Graciano Rubio, owner of MetFix ValleyView, provides powerful insights on navigating systems and staying grounded in purpose.
Rubio, known as the Wall Street Weightlifter, delivers a comprehensive presentation outlining the transformative wellness framework he implements at MetFix Valley View. Unlike traditional gym models focused on aesthetics or elite athletic performance, Rubio’s program is rooted in reversing chronic disease and improving everyday functionality. His system is structured around a 90-day on-ramp that includes education, personalized assessments, and consistent tracking through a seven-level progression model. Clients are introduced to foundational fitness principles and taught to measure their progress against their past performance—not others—with the goal of transitioning from sickness to wellness and eventually fitness.
A 10-minute summary of the webinar is available here free, for anyone, while the full webinar is available for Medical Society Members in their dashboard.
