for e last few yrs, i have been jogging for 4km or powerwalk for 1 hr. But of late, i changed my style n now run 3km, a combo of jog n sprints as adviced by our bros here.

 

Now i would like to replace wif 1 day of static exercise of between 15-20 mins. Reason- every day run also getting bore.

 

Pls advice......

 

Join a run competition. To some, it can be addictive.. YMMV.. It kept me going for 2 yrs now, since the doc told me to do something about it.

 

BTW, I only run 3 times a week, and do cross training in between the day my legs are resting. So I won't be doing the same thing thruout the weeks.

This diet will optimise your health, but not your fitness. 2 different things.

 

Of course when you have health, fitness is much easier to achieve, but if your goal is to prepare for the army in the sense that you will be able to handle the physical activity that will be thrown at you, you will need to train yourself doing those activities.

 

 

bro... i must thank you for pointing the way.

 

Have stopped rice/bread/grain products/sugar drinks since beginning July.

Have started regular exercise but picking up at a slow pace.

Started eating more of the "fatty" foods and fruits and Omega 3 supplements as recommended - but still not up to the optimum diet yet. A bit difficult to find free range eggs and grass fed meat products at the NTUC.

Only an occassional beer and chips (yeah, this is bad) once in about 2 weeks. Will soon cut this out as well, I think.

 

Have lost about 5kg, dropped a pants size, feeling damn good so far. No more craving for breads or rice or soft drinks.

Bro. cut the fruits and it will be faster.

BTW OT a bit, bro. Radx got the camera from you on your last MO,

can let me know when your next one is? Thanks.

Roast pork salad...I luv it with lots of cheese!

[Mazdaowner]

Bro, POWER LAH!! [laugh] The egg yolk you like it like that ah?

eggs boiled for 7mins. yolk will be like that, best is 8-9mins. solid, but some people

don't like it powdery. Bro, add salt into the boiling water, easier to peel shell.

My wife loves the egg white solid, but yolk runny, so I boh pian, have to boil eggs specially for her like that.

Congrats bro.

 

If you are disciplined about it, in time, you will find less and less need to "cheat". Your body simply won't wanna "poison" itself. Food that seemed like you can't live without will be seen in the same light as say, paper. You can eat paper and it won't kill you. That's about it.

 

Some people don't believe I don't get tempted anymore, but it's true. My taste buds have literally changed. But that's only possible due to 2 years of extreme discipline.

 

Having said that, I believe everyone should live their lives according to their own priorities. If you have to drink beer and still want to be healthy, by all means drink GOOD beer. Just don't drink it all the time. Balance it off with a good diet and intense exercise and an occasional 24 hour fast, and you'll be perfectly fine.

 

By the same token, if you have to drink beer more than you have to be healthy, then by all means drink beer and accept that health will be compromised. Make your life on earth a happy one.

 

The great thing is, there is enough knowledge in this thread to help anyone find the right balance for him or herself.

Wah lao eh, you guys damn good cooks man... My food never looks so appetizing...

[Ahleon]

Wah Han pau pau! Power man, one question, dark sauce can makan ah?Ok lah, for me I don't take.

You pau in bah chang leaf and cook as per the normal way in water or steam? Meat got marinate boh?

Any modifications from the norm? Like that is a fantastically good idea Han Pau pau, I can make Nonya change

filling. Thanks for sharing Han Pau Pau, this is what this thread is supposed to be, not all take and no giving.

 

BTW Han Pau Pau, I just remembered one thing, your BP could and I'm quite sure is due to the beans you are taking in your

coffee, I'm older then you are, and I kana one time,my BP all of a sudden shot up, was due to low grade Robusta beans being added into

the blend. Yes, Robusta, unwashed, has very high caffeine content, and it attributes to raising your BP. Thus I'm very careful with my beans,

I'm back to roasting my own. Please PM me if you have any questions.

The fruits - I am trying to be picky, but all in moderation - so far sticking to:

• apples
• blueberries
• grapes
• starfruit
• bananas
• papayas

 

Are any of the above bad?

Am already staying away from oranges, pineapple, watermelon, honeydew, rambutans, and other fruits.

 

Regarding the MO - 2nd MO closing today - if you want in, quickly send me your email addy so I can send you details. This probably final MO, as most of those who want the cams have got them. Otherwise you need to get from Radx all his spare cam.. he has many

Yeah.. it's amazing how there is no longer any interest for rice or breads.... I just don't even think about them anymore. Even when there are no other options available.

[Hamburger]

bro, pls pm me your email. interested in your MO on cam......cheers

[Mazdaowner]

Bro.in my instance,I took out fruits completely. Use to be one banana before hitting the gym for energy,

who need sit now.I fasted yesterday, body totally zero, and yet I was able to pull as heavy as I did before

same amount of reps/sets, went shopping for food, came back cooked and had dinner only at 9pm,

and worked on till 11 cutting up big two birds for Chicken Satay. BTW, sent you PM on the camera already.
