Doing things to challenge yourself
KhunLA replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

Doing things to challenge yourself
KhunLA replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yea .. .I let my ego get in the way one day. After talking to some work buddies (body builders), and they were all talking about how much they press. So stupid me, on beach break and hotel had a gym, so stupidity kicked in. Usually press <200 lbs. So off I go, 200, easy, 225, OK, I can do the, 250, not so easy, 275 .... once. Damn I'm good ... next day, I couldn't shampoo my damn head Think I pulled every muscle there are in my shoulders And at the wrong time, as I was getting certified for diving the following week. Which required 4 laps in an Olympic pool. And yea, I finished, but the last one out, and more than a lap to 2 on my back just kicking my legs They took a long time to get back to normal, and lucky nothing serious. -

If I couldn't do a pull up, I'd have to join a gym or something, till I could, as a simple pull up is a pretty low bar for me. Sit ups is a different story, something I really could never do. Not that I would, since one of the worst exercises for you back. I prefer simple stomach crunches. Hold them for as long as possible ... feel the pain. Good for only about 5-10 -
If birds start dropping out of the skies, I think humans will long gone by then. Humans seem to drop over in 100F and birds core temp is like 106-109F. Constant temps of 105F ... don't think most of the humans would make it. Sooner of later the elite would have to tend their own fields ... the horror

Doing things to challenge yourself
KhunLA replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
That didn't work, as just back from the park, and not one piece of equipment there or an overhead bar I could use. Only 1 there was too big, and I couldn't get a good grip. Not about to slip off and hurt myself for a stranger, telling me what I can't do. Did pull ups get cancelled ? Maybe too many oops or torn rotary cups Or just banned as misogynism, since women have a hard time doing them. Could post a vid of me doing a bunch of push ups, or bench press more than my weight. But sure that wouldn't satisfy you. You'll just have to keep on telling me & others, that you don't know, what we're unable to do, simply because you can't. Go figure ... -

Doing things to challenge yourself
KhunLA replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I do my 'floor' exercises after my aerobic (stationary bike), as loosens and warms up all the muscles. Not trying to build muscle, just maintain. If building, then do weights and push ups/pull up before cardio exercises. Like warming things up first, so I don't pull / tear any of these older muscles, again, not trying to build any muscle mass. -
Thailand Faces Economic Question: China and EV Cars
KhunLA replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The made in TH, badged autos from JP auto makers really are crap, compared to what arriving from CH at completive pricing. After owning 3 of those POS (2 Toyota/1 Mazda), I'm surprised anyone buys them. -

Really ... are you bench pressing at least your body weight, or close to it. Push ups are great, as work a range of muscles (arms chest, shoulders). Do as many as you can, rest, then do another set after working your legs or whatever. Keep increasing the number per set, without tearing anything, and you'll eventually build up those muscles to be able to do 10-25 at a time. Which will take time, 6 months to a year. Nothing happens over night. -

It shouldn't be, and I'm 69 I also only weigh a couple kilos more than when I was 21 yrs old. Being active and healthy choices helps maintain a fairly healthy strong body. Muscle atrophy ... use it or loose it. It not rocket science. -

Yes, same with chin up/pull ups. Everyone should at least be able to lift their own weight. -
GW or MMCC ... sorry, not buying it. Damn chilly last night, and all we had was the fan on. If this is GW, long may it last. ,,, CC, yea, it's the weather, it does that. Seas Rising ... that's funny. as we could walk over to the islands out in the bay, and only noticed that being possible the last few years. I believe what my eyes see and my body feels, not what people tell me, so they can extort / tax, more of my money in the guise of saving me & the planet. Yet, they've done absolutely nothing ... IMHO

Tasty, moist, and not overly sweet, as no sugar, just honey as sweetener. I did NOT top with as much honey syrup as in the recipe, maybe 1/4 of, as brushed on & coated it fine. Thought using all of it would be overkill.

Where do foreigners fit in the Thai hierarchy?

Don't know about that, though probably healthier than many things. Have to peek at the ingredients next O&A. -
Poll/Survey: Expat Tax Residency Status
KhunLA replied to Skeptic7's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Interesting poll, in that there might actually be 50 or so members of AN that actually live in TH. I guess we'll all be scrambling to the TRD when reports of fines are issued for not filing a tax return, whether tax due or not ...
