Welcome to my health & fitness blog! You could think of it as an online lifestyle magazine as well. Aside from my experiences, I will also feature other stuff that I hope you’ll find interesting or useful. My goal: to achieve physical fitness as only six-pack abs can exemplify.
In order to be healthy and in great shape, it is essential that we have a healthy, well-balanced diet. Such a diet must contain these three macronutrients: carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Proteins are essential for muscle and tissue growth, recovery and regeneration — as well as for our survival. Protein is also a natural, dietary [...]
It is extremely important to set goals when it comes to losing weight and getting in shape. Though many are aware of the importance of setting goals, what can become a problem is when the goals that are set are unrealistic. Careful attention should be placed upon the goals that you set and to make [...]
Jackknife sit-ups are a challenging way to develop strength in your abdominal muscles. Lying flat on the floor with your legs and arms outstretched, and using your abdominal muscles to bring them together, can give you quite a workout. You will definitely feel your abs working in this exercise.
Remember to do your stretches and [...]
I believe that one of the best forms of exercise is swimming. It’s very low impact, compared to, say, jogging, and yet the fitness benefits are probably better. It helps your lungs stay in shape, thanks to the rhythmic breathing you have to do while swimming. It’s one terrific aerobic exercise if you do it [...]
It’s indisputable that exercise and proper eating habits are two inescapable disciplines that we must have in order to maintain health and fitness. However, in our polluted world today, these two alone can’t guarantee our being safe from diseases. Hence, we take vitamins and supplements and such.

To lose some weight (maybe I’m about 10-15lbs overweight now), I’ve gone on a fish diet. It’s not really a strict regimen of fish-only meals, but for a few days now I’ve been avoiding meat. The reason? To avoid fat and cholesterol intake. And since fish is so abundant in my locale, it’s not a [...]
During the past several months, I was always out with clients or friends… drinking. Beer mostly. Coupled with that the fact that I was eating too much carbs, I really gained weight. Two weeks ago I gained almost 15 pounds! My jeans were starting to give out on me already…
So I decided to go back [...]
Sleep — probably the most important function of our body. And this is why, without it or when lacking it, we cannot function well at all. I’m sure most of you have tried going without sleep and experienced the detrimental results. Imagine being afflicted with a sickness that robs you of your sleep. In the [...]
On 27 October 2007, a major blogging event will be held in Davao City, Philippines: the 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit. I’m part of the organizing team, so of course I’ll be there. As of this writing, there are now 70 registered participants from all over the country. I do hope I’ll be meeting up with [...]
There simply is now getting around it: weight loss, especially for those who are considered clinically obese, is an involved process. Any quick-fix method being advertised out there can’t be 100% effective nor healthy in the long run. If you’re overweight and serious about shedding those unwanted pounds, you’ve got to commit to a change [...]
