Fitness regime working wonders for overweight border patrol police

Thailand's borders look to be safer than ever after overweight policemen were put through their paces. 

 

Thai Rath showed a 15 minute video of the Border Patrol Police 44 being trained into shape at a slimming down boot camp. 

 

One particular officer who had earlier been picture with an unsightly paunch was now much trimmer. 

 

The officers were shown doing such things as running, doing push-ups, squat thrusts, jogging on the spot and step aerobics.

 

They were also made to wait like schoolboys with their hands behind their backs before being allowed to have lunch. 

 

Then it was a healthy diet of what looked like boiled chicken and vegetables.

Fitness regime working wonders

Whatever happen to the mandatory fitness programme introduced by PM Prayut for the civil service and politicians. That seemed to die a natural death in a matter of weeks; like most of his short lived "bright" ideas. 

Going to be an epic yo-yo effect once it stops - probably in a week or so.

...it also worked wonders for the next mom & pop shop. They ran out of soft drinks, Chips and Mama noodles.

How they can exercise in such a low oxygen environment is amazing.

There's any number of roly-police in Pattaya.  Only their counting fingers get any exercise.

In what country have you seen police working the land ?

 

 

There should be mandatory fitness checks for people like cops, army, ambulance and other rescue personnel. Though to be honest I rather have a fat competent person helping me then a fit idiot.

 

Best would be of course if it was a fit competent person. For some jobs fitness is an asset, cops is one of them. 

 

Still if i had to change things for cops this would not be what i would be thinking of.

If it stops in a week then there is not too much to yo-yo. But your 100% right otherwise.

 

 

Exercise does little for weight loss.  Good for strength building, but doesn't do much for reducing the pounds. 

 

Better to concentrate on healthy eating.

Notice he has his back to the illegal meterless taximeter.  These cabs are invisible to Pattaya Plod.

100% right though exercise helps keep the weight off and it certainly has its advantages in combination with a good diet. However its almost impossible to out-train a bad diet. 

The lardy geriatric general regime may take longer????
