The power of 1 minute! 一分钟的力量！

30/06/15 :-

Never underestimate the power of 1 minute!
别忽视一分钟的力量！

1 minute is equivalent to 60 seconds.
Yes, we all know that.

Is it long or short?
In the past, I would have replied with short as my answer.

However, ever since I took up my current favorite sport, Dragonboat, I have a different understanding and meaning of 1 minute.
Coach Kim has given us a circuit exercise which I've diligently been doing for the past 2 weeks.

Front Planks - 1 minute
Rest - 1 minute

Left Planks - 1 minute
Rest - 1 minute

Right Planks  - 1 minute
Rest - 1 minute

Squats - 1 minute
Rest - 1 minute

Pushups x 40
Rest - 1 minute

45degree / 15degree leg lifts (hold) - 1 minute
Rest - 1 minute

Mountain Climbers x 20
Burpees x 20
Rest - 1 minute

Repeat above 2 more times, meaning total of 3 sets.

If you aren't the very fit type, that 1 minute could leave you out of breathe.
And that 1 minute of rest would be so precious to you!

We are currently training for our next race on 4th July 2015.
Our aim is around 1 minute or lesser.
That 1 minute for 200 metre of rowing definitely means a lot.

Ever since I took up this sport, I have gained a lot of insights.
Glad that I'm able to train with my current great team and be stronger than I was before.

The Ugly Truth about "BREAKUPS"!

Well, a someone asked, "U've didn't blog over the wkend?" I kind of suspect she has gotten addicted to my "The Ugly Truth" session like afew other readers. Den I received an email from anor reader whom I can't disclose to protect her identity against her EX-bf. She wants me to do a session on "BREAKUPS" - What GUYS need to know abt the stuff GIRLS HATE after a breakup. From wat I know, there can be afew situations after a couple breaks up. Let's us analyse them all:- Best Case Scenario They come to mutual terms with it & decided that they can still be the best of friends or maybe just friends. Of coz, this is the perfect situation and I'm glad I'm having this kind of friendship with Grade A friend. ^_~ Neutral Scenario Anor one, it's the kind of situation where they don't keep in contact @ all. Both are fine with tis arrangement, nth much to touch on this either. Worst Case(s) Scenario This is the case of my dear reader

In a world where you can be anything, BE KIND! 在一個你甚麼都可以成為的世界裡，選擇善良！

21/05/19 :- In a world where you can be anything, BE KIND! 在一個你甚麼都可以成為的世界裡，選擇善良！ Guys may have strong ego, but we have feelings too. Not all guys are wolves, who are only after your bodies. When we give you our hearts, please treat them with care. You may not want to be the owners, but do not go around breaking them. Many have came to show their care and concern, I'm truly grateful and appreciate your kind words. I am sorry, I couldn't share much on the details. I can only say, I am not ok, but don't worry, I would be fine as time goes by. Whatever that has happened, was just a case of a silly guy misinterpreting all the wrong signals sent. Falling in too fast and too deep. The girl was playing with fire and when she realized the fire was near, the most logical thing to do was to let go and not get her fingers burnt. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, except the guy is left to pick up the broken pieces of his fragile heart which he has given out too so
