I get asked a lot about my diet plans and what's the best workout to go for in order to stay in shape. There are way too many theories when it comes to fitness, I can't tell you exactly what's the best but I could share some of my experiences with you guys :
1. I am not the kind of person who has a strict diet plan, I always believe in having a balance diet. With a hectic and constantly on the go schedule, it is almost impossible for me to eat clean at all times. Instead, I try to fit in at least a healthy meal per day. There are some days that I'd eat healthy, some days that I'd binge. To me, it's all about keeping things in moderation. Especially if I've had a crazy workout, I want to be able to sleep well and eat well. Life is too short to be counting calories! And I love my rice too much 🍙🍚🍣
2. People tend to set goals and resolutions that are somehow related to fitness and health. This is great but the chances of sticking to those resolutions is a fifty fifty. Instead of setting fitness as a goal, try turning it into a part of your lifestyle, a healthy habit that you practice everyday.
3. I always put healthy living and fitness as my priority. It is more effective to set your priorities straight to achieve the ideal healthy lifestyle based on your daily living. All it takes is just a little bit of organisation and time management.
4. Consistency is key. Try not to look for reasons to not exercise and find ways to. Like waking up earlier 👅
5. My main exercise routine involves a lot of spinning, strength and conditioning. I prefer doing high intensity workouts, occasionally some hot Pilates/yoga to balance it out. I might not be the most patient person when it comes to yoga, but I'm trying!
6. If you're new to fitness, I suggest you can pick a variation of workouts, go for trials, see if you're comfortable and how your body reacts to it!
7. Spending hours in the gym is not the only way to get fit. When It comes to being active, there are different sports that I feel like everyone should try at least once. Keeping a give it a go attitude to explore what you could be good at is always good. It's also a way of keeping your interest in being active.

Episode 5: CYCLING IN SINGAPORE TOUR WITH GOPRO HERO 9 Health benefits of regular cycling
Health benefits of regular cycling
Cycling is mainly an aerobic activity, which means that your heart, blood vessels and lungs all get a workout. You will breathe deeper, perspire and experience increased body temperature, which will improve your overall fitness level.
The health benefits of regular cycling include:
increased cardiovascular fitness
increased muscle strength and flexibility
improved joint mobility
decreased stress levels
improved posture and coordination
strengthened bones
decreased body fat levels
prevention or management of disease
reduced anxiety and depression.

Cycling and specific health issues
Cycling can improve both physical and mental health, and can reduce the chances of experiencing many health problems.
Obesity and weight control
Cycling is a good way to control or reduce weight, as it raises your metabolic rate, builds muscle and burns body fat. If you’re trying to lose weight, cycling must be combined with a healthy eating plan. Cycling is a comfortable form of exercise and you can change the time and intensity – it can be built up slowly and varied to suit you.
Research suggests you should be burning at least 8,400 kilojoules (about 2,000 calories) a week through exercise. Steady cycling burns about 1,200 kilojoules (about 300 calories) per hour.
If you cycle twice a day, the kilojoules burnt soon add up. British research shows that a half-hour bike ride every day will burn nearly five kilograms of fat over a year.
Cardiovascular disease and cycling
Cardiovascular diseases include stroke, high blood pressure and heart attack. Regular cycling stimulates and improves your heart, lungs and circulation, reducing your risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Cycling strengthens your heart muscles, lowers resting pulse and reduces blood fat levels. Research also shows that people who cycle to work have two to three times less exposure to pollution than car commuters, so their lung function is improved. A Danish study conducted over 14 years with 30,000 people aged 20 to 93 years found that regular cycling protected people from heart disease.
Cancer and cycling
Many researchers have studied the relationship between exercise and cancer, especially colon and breast cancer. Research has shown that if you cycle, the chance of bowel cancer is reduced. Some evidence suggests that regular cycling reduces the risk of breast cancer.
Diabetes and cycling
The rate of type 2 diabetes is increasing and is a serious public health concern. Lack of physical activity is thought to be a major reason why people develop this condition. Large-scale research in Finland found that people who cycled for more than 30 minutes per day had a 40 per cent lower risk of developing diabetes.
Bone injuries, arthritis and cycling
Cycling improves strength, balance and coordination. It may also help to prevent falls and fractures. Riding a bike is an ideal form of exercise if you have osteoarthritis, because it is a low-impact exercise that places little stress on joints.
Cycling does not specifically help osteoporosis (bone-thinning disease) because it is not a weight-bearing exercise.
Mental illness and cycling
Mental health conditions such as depression, stress and anxiety can be reduced by regular bike riding. This is due to the effects of the exercise itself and because of the enjoyment that riding a bike can bring.
