It is healthy until I provide my body the necessary vitamins and proteins without fats and less no. Of carbs.
Yeah, when I have a headache I drink a steaming cup of tea and it usually subsides or at least it feels a bit better.My kryptonite is tea/coffee with sugar. I tend to drink more when work is stressful like it is now.
Thanks. These are healthy and intact adds very less calories or calories that can be spent easily. As my goal is to reduce weight faster I'm following this.All these items are pretty healthy stuff I guess.
Anyway, good luck.
Hey what is your job description. Sounds interesting dude.Hello friends. Just noticed the thread on physical fitness.
Unfortunately, the polling option is closed. However, as a preference I believe that having strength and endurance is necessary in order to keep oneself street-ready. Everyone has different body types and therefore putting on muscle can vary from their genetic structure.
For example, there is a higher chance for people from northern or southern India to put on bulky muscles (without supplements) than people in from my place. Our body structure is generally what you would call, 'lean and mean'. Centuries of running up and down the mountainous terrain while picking up heavy goods as well as our choice of foods has kind of helped people here to maintain that structure.
Although now due to fast foods, I do come across fat people here in Sikkim as well.
For workouts, I go for the traditional sandbag lifting and long endurance runs, everyday early morning. Usually about 15-20 kg of total weight disbursed evenly on forearms, thighs, shins, chest and back and for about 90-120 minutes. It is a good workout especially when running uphill, which is common in my place.
After this some push-ups, pull-ups (alternate days) stomach crunches and some self defence training.
Staying fit is needed in my job roles as my expeditions take me to some of the remotest corners of the world. If we get stuck somewhere, there is no other way out but to have endurance to run for a very very long time to some native yurts or huts.
Now this could be in the coldest or the hottest places in the world. Once my team was stuck in the Kazakh steppes in the winters for a shoot. We had two flat tires on our crew van and only one spare. when in minus temperatures, being able to endure is what saved my neck. It took nearly 3 hours of walking-jogging to find the nearest local settlement of villagers who took us in and treated us with food and vodka. Needless to say I thanked the day I learnt Russian at that time.
We work with the likes of National Geographic, Discovery Channel and others for documentaries and even scientists who have research projects in remote areas of the world. These could be government, private or JVs.
Nice, man.
i was with an international Kuosho (Taiwanese nat'l sport/martial art; very similar to Wushu) organisation (ICKF) about 1.5 decades back. we had a few branches in Manipur too. once had the chance to meet some fellow members from there. a couple of them were very fit, with broad feet and palms! but we won the demo sanshou fights.Hello friends.

great! my brother is a photographer. not a pro or commercial one, but has been pursuing it as a hobby since past quite a few years now. and he's damn good at it i can say! has had a natural flair for it from the beginning itself. and has been whining since a while now that wants to do a job like those of the NG ones.
same here! many times i used to daydreem about myself wandering like peter byrne or the legendary ivan sanderson, etc. as explorers (until a regular job hit the daylights out of me!
)
Uhh dude...i was contemplating on bumping this thread up since past some time!

BTW, long ago, i watched a very short clip of our Danny Denzongpa in a NE movie, executing NE martial arts moves & a flying kick! it was on a show on MTV, & there was no info provided.

also, i have a photographer/camerman/whatever you can all in my society too. one of his 'expeditions' he had once told me about was, 'mission navy' series of NGC. he also shoots sports events and cricket matches.
have you watched the old NGC documentary on the Yeti of Bhutan? this Yeti entity is spread worldwide! from Tibet (Yeti) to china (yeren) to Indonesia/malaysia (orang pendek) to vietnam (batutut) to australia (yowie) to US/canada (bigfoot/sasquatch) to europe (yes! reports of sightings coming in from there too since sometime) to India too (FM AChauhan described about some incidents from Chhattisgarh. i had asked for his permission to share this info with a paranormal researcher i follow).
Yeah man. I feel ya.......i was contemplating on bumping this thread up since past some time!
