This week we talk about China, Russia, and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.We also discuss BRICS, North Korea, and the post-WWII global world order.Recommended Book: Supercommunicators by Charles DuhiggTranscriptThe Shanghai Cooperation Organization, or SCO, is a defense and economic alliance that was started by China and Russia back in 2001, and which has since expanded to become the largest regional organization in the world in terms of both land area and population, encompassing something like 80% of Eurasia, and 40% of the global population, as of 2020.The SCO also boasts about 20% of global GDP between its member nations, which originally included the governments of its precursor regional alliance, the Shanghai Five, which formed back in 1996: China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan.With the evolution of that group into the SCO, though, Uzbekistan joined the club, and in 2017 it allowed India and Pakistan in, as well. Iran joined in 2023, and the list of observer and dialogue partner nations is pretty big, including Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, Cambodia, Egypt, Kuwait, the Maldives, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, Turkey, and the UAE.The original purpose of the Shanghai Five, which was inherited by the SCO, was to increase trust and diplomatic relationships between these nations, which otherwise have a lot of potential enemies surrounding them on all sides—this is why the advice to never fight a land war in Asia is so well-taken: there's just a lot of land and a lot of borders and pretty much everyone who's tried, with few exceptions, has found themselves depleted by the effort.Thus, while there are other components to the SCO, member countries' agreement to respect each others' borders, including opposition to intervention in other countries—invading them, messing with their politics, criticizing their approach to human rights, etc—the sovereignty issue is the big one here, with making sure that everyone involved is diplomatically tied-up with everyone else in a close second, so member states can focus on the borders that present the most risk, and invest less attention and resources on the borders they share with their fellow members.That said, the SCO also includes mechanisms that allow member nations to work together on big projects, like transportation infrastructure that passes through or benefits more than one country, and fighting local terrorist organizations. It also allows them to integrate some aspects of their monetary and banking infrastructure, among other ties, so there's an economic component to these relationships.Another intergovernmental organization that likewise encompasses a significant chunk of the global population, landmass, and economic activity is BRICS, which is an acronym that was originally coined to gesture at the economic potential of the then-burgeoning economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, but which in recent years has expanded to also include Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the UAE.BRICS nations hold about 30% of the world's territory, 45% of its population, and pull in about 33% of global GDP, based on purchasing power parity.And BRICS has long served as a sort of counterweight to global institutions that often seem to favor the world's wealthiest and most powerful nations, many of which are Western nations, like those of North America and Europe.So while the G7's expanded iteration, the G20, brings nations like Brazil, India, and Indonesia into the conversation, the majority of the power in such institutions—and this includes institutions like the UN, because of who holds vetoes and soft power influence within those organizations—the majority of the power is still typically held by the world's currently most influential and wealthy governments.And BRICS, from the beginning, included those nations that were assumed to become the most powerful, or at least equally powerful nations, by many metrics, in ten or twenty or thirty years, based on demographics, economic growth, and so on.Both of these groupings, then, are attempts to lash together the governments of nations that are on favorable growth trajectories, or otherwise in interesting, upward-moving positions by various metrics, or which are located in areas that would benefit from some kind of unity, but which aren't always given the respect they believe they deserve within other globe-straddling organizations; in some cases because they're simply not there yet, in others because their governments are a bit more authoritarian, while entities like the UN, while including everyone, tend to favor democracies.What I'd like to talk about today is another loose grouping of nations that seems to be forming, and which, while it doesn't have an official designation or even membership roster yet, is becoming increasingly well-defined, collaborative, and active.—The geopolitical, military, and news analysis community has been struggling, over the past handful of years in particular, to come up with a monicker for a loosely defined, but increasingly impactful cluster of nations that are oriented, in part, around disrupting the current global status quo, including but not limited to the rule of law and establishment through which international things are typically handled that arose in the wake of WWII.Following that conflict, the US and the Soviet Union scrambled to figure out how to deal with each other in ways that didn't lead to, at first, conventional war, and then in a relatively short period of time, nuclear war, and that led to a flurry of geopolitical activity that culminated in the creation of, among other things, of the United Nations, which itself birthed a huge stack of other organizations and protocols, most of which favored those who were willing to play ball within these institutions, and made life a little more difficult for those who defied them; North Korea, for instance, following its formation after the Korean War, is famously excluded from a lot of the benefits of belonging to the modern international order, in large part because it's made it pretty clear it intends to do away with its neighbor to the south, and maybe the US and other perceptual enemies, as well, the first chance it gets.The group that analysts have been trying to label centers around China and Russia, but usually includes Iran, as well, and in some cases North Korea, as well. Iran's many proxy groups, like Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and Hamas in Gaza, are also sometimes thus categorized.Some of the proposed labels have been clear and illustrative, others have been a little in the weeds—like the acronym CRANKs, which kinda sorta stands for China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, the Axis of Upheaval, the Axis of Autocracy, and in some more western and patriotic publications, the New Axis of Evil, and even the Legion of Doom, which arguably makes this group seem pretty hardcore, but I guess it still gets the intended point across.I personally like one that was posited by a writer for the American Enterprise Institute, the Axis of Disorder, as while there's still a fairly biased reference to the WWII Axis powers in there, which depending on whose side you're on and which governments you support, could be construed as an unfair comparison, but it also points at the seeming purpose of a lot of this group's actions, which seem to orient around disrupting the current world order—that one that was implemented post-WWII.And the seeming rationale for this is that this post-WWII order was established to favor nations with capitalistic economies and democratic values, including things like human rights, freedom of the press, freedom of worship, and the like; and while there's absolutely room for argument as to how well various nations uphold those values on a country-to-country basis, and across time, few would argue that China has a better reputation for human rights than Sweden, or that Iran has a better record for equality between the sexes than the UK.So we live in a world, today, that's shaped by a bunch of values that these loosely grouped oppositional nations don't really agree with, at least not to the degree that other nations think they should, and a lot of the levers of power are currently in other hands. And they believe, well, why shouldn't we hold those levers? Why shouldn't China have the economic power the US has? Why shouldn't Iran be as geopolitically influential as Germany? Why shouldn't North Korea be in charge of something like the UN?And on top of that, why should the US and its allies hold the reins of so many sanctions-related powers? Why should the USD and its vast underpinnings grant one nation, and its allies, so many benefits, while the rest of the world is forced to play ball and toe the line—play ball according to rules set by the US and those who believe similar things, and toe lines they draw according to their preferences—lest they find themselves, like Iran and North Korea, and increasingly, now, Russia, sanctioned into oblivion?It's a fair question, if you are ambivalent about those aforementioned human rights and press freedoms and such.And these governments, not really liking those limitations on their behaviors and how they run things, are doing what they can, in a loosely affiliated way, to disrupt these enforcement institutions and the powers and nations they support.So part of the strategy of this group is fairly direct and unambiguous: they playact toeing the line a lot of the time, but when they think they can get away with it.Some of these raw acts of violation, though, would seem to be performed with the intention of making people question those institutions and powers, and the larger order they add up to, which could, over time, bring some of the nations that are sitting on the sidelines over to their, oppositional side; courting those of the so-called nonaligned movement, basically, of which there are officially around 120, though about 25 of them are highly desirable allies that have become transactional in their dealings with members of both sides of this simmering conflict, with the roughly delineated west on one side, and that of China and Russia and their allies on the other.The economist actually called this group the Transactional 25, to T25, which is a nicely illustrative monicker, and that group includes nations as big as India and as small, but increasingly diplomatically important, as Qatar.So when the Houthis shut down the Red Sea passage to the Suez Canal, disrupting global trade, and when North Korea provides ammunition to Russia for use during its invasion of Ukraine, these are actions that are beneficial to these groups unto themselves—the Houthis gain more attention and recruits, and get to hurt, ostensibly at least, Israel and its allies, and North Korea gets more trade with Russia, while also helping set a precedent for invading and claiming a neighboring country, which is something they're very interested in doing at some point—but they're also actions that show the weakness of the current global system and the folks running it, which could, over time, nudge more nations over to their side.This isn't just theory: this is something we've already seen play out in parts of Africa, where Russia's Wagner mercenaries have been subbed-in for US and UN troops, for defending against extremist militants purposes, and we've seen other T25 nations in particular wobble on various, global-scale issues, to the point that it's a big question who India, who Indonesia, who Vietnam, who Israel would support if push came to shove and a global conflict broke out, or if some kind of geopolitical movement arose, intending to fundamentally alter institutions like the UN—who would these sideline-sitters throw in their lot with?These disruptions, in some ways, are arguments in favor of siding with the group that's trying to upend the way things are currently done, by showing the fragility of that existing system.This new Axis of Disorder, or whatever we want to call it, is not a fully unified front, however. Neither is what they're positioning themselves against, members of the UN, EU, NATO, and every other group regularly squabbling with each other; but the rifts between China and Russia are huge, with China becoming increasingly dominant over Russia, Russia's economy becoming more and more reliant on their neighbor, and that's created tensions within both countries, alongside existing concerns about the vast border they share.Likewise, North Korea worries pretty much everyone, and Russia's recent announcement of a defense pact with them has raised a lot of eyebrows, including in China. And while Iran has gained a lot of prestige in Russia recently, for the cheap and functional drones and rockets they offer, their ongoing tensions with regional neighbors that China and Russia would like to get closer to, like Saudi Arabia, makes them a bit of a liability, as much as an asset, and the actions they help their proxies take (like the Houthis in the Red Sea) are not ideal for shipping giant China.So there's a lot of scuffling and below-the-surface tension between the members of this so-called axis, and while they're doing an arguably solid job, so far, of testing the limits of the current system, and publicly airing its weak points, that doesn't mean they're set up for anything more substantial than that kind of testing the fence, seeing what they can get away with, asymmetric warfare sort of approach to this ambition.They're not as tight as the loosely defined west, then, but it also behooves them to keep things in the grey area, in some ways, lest they trigger alarm bells throughout those systems they're trying to throw off, so that looseness might serve them more than hinder them, at this point. It also allows them to work with grey-area members of this group, like Venezuela and Cuba, which periodically make nice with their western opposition, while still fighting against them at the macro-scale.Probably the biggest impact this group is having right now, though, with all that testing and vulnerability identifying, is increasing the number of threat surfaces the world faces, in terms of hacking and snooping and stealing, but also in terms of provoking military actions and threatening more of the same.Russia invading Ukraine was a big deal, and China threatening to invade Taiwan could be even bigger; and both of those acts, alongside all of the hacking they do, the stealing of intellectual property, the leaking of state secrets, and the messing with foreign elections, are all violations of what's supposed to be good and proper and allowed within that global system.And because they're pushing all those buttons all at once, they're spreading the response capability of the other side pretty thin, which could be a precursor to a more direct attack, but it could also just be a means of weakening that system, wearing it out to the point that it no longer functions even at the imperfect level it was at before, which could, over time, make way for some new model, run by a new set of hands.Show Noteshttps://archive.ph/bOr06https://nationalinterest.org/feature/meet-cranks-how-china-russia-iran-and-north-korea%C2%A0align-against-america-211186https://thehill.com/opinion/4094000-iran-just-joined-a-pact-with-moscow-and-beijing-heres-what-it-means-for-the-us/https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/22/world/asia/putin-korea-china-disruption.htmlhttps://warontherocks.com/2024/04/the-axis-off-kilter-why-an-iran-russia-china-axis-is-shakier-than-meets-the-eye/https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2024/03/18/how-china-russia-and-iran-are-forging-closer-tieshttps://www.foreignaffairs.com/china/axis-upheaval-russia-iran-north-korea-taylor-fontainehttps://www.aei.org/articles/the-axis-of-disorder-how-russian-iran-and-china-want-to-remake-the-world/https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/never_fight_a_land_war_in_Asiahttps://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zynt2nb/revision/3https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_of_Independent_Stateshttps://archive.ph/xVbrhhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zynt2nb/revision/3https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_Cooperation_Organisationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS This is a public episode.

En su reposo. 23/05/2023. T25. E3. "Hijo mío, no te olvides de mi ley, y tu corazón guarde mis mandamientos". Pr. 3:1 No te olvides ¡Qué fácil es olvidar! La naturaleza humana tiende a dejar en el olvido cosas realmente importantes. Las razones pueden ser muchas, pero en su mayoría se relacionan con el desinterés provocado por la falta de visión sobre la importancia de aquello que se descuida. En otras palabras, no hay sabiduría para valorar y priorizar lo importante, y esto hace que se deseche o se olvide con facilidad. Todo el mensaje del capítulo 3 de Proverbios tiene como eje central este pensamiento: "no te olvides". No importa si ya se había enseñado muchas veces estas verdades, no te olvides. Aunque sea molesto para quien escucha la misma cantaleta de la ley y los mandamientos, no te olvides. Incluso si ahora resulta en rechazo o enojo, no importa, no te olvides. Para no olvidar, hay que valorar; en este caso, la importancia de la sabiduría y de la obediencia a la ley de Dios, que es resultado de la sabiduría. Para no olvidar hay que leer, escuchar, meditar, y esforzarnos por aprender y adquirir sabiduría. De ahí la importancia de leer la Biblia cada día, de meditarla y esforzarnos por ponerla en práctica en cada momento. El Señor nos ayude a hacerlo así, pues su gracia no faltará sobre aquellos que no olvidan su palabra y la atesoran en su corazón. Isaí Rodríguez Ruiz
En su reposo. 24/05/2023. T25. E4. "Mas la senda de los justos es como la luz de la aurora, que va en aumento hasta que el día es perfecto". Pr. 4:18 Sendas Uno de los conceptos que se repite en el capítulo es el de las sendas, caminos o veredas que transitamos en la vida. Por supuesto es una metáfora sobre las decisiones que tomamos en la vida y cómo estas nos llevan a tener una forma de vida con consecuencias naturales. Hay dos tipos de sendas en el proverbio, el camino de los justos y la vereda de los impíos. El impío toma la decisión de hacer el mal, y solo busca hacer todo el daño que le es posible. El justo busca ser útil y una persona de bien dondequiera que se encuentra. La diferencia entre uno y otro está directamente relacionada con la sabiduría según nuestro pasaje. Si una persona se interesa, busca, y práctica la sabiduría, esta decisión lo llevará por el camino de la justicia. Por el contrario, aquel que voluntariamente se aleja de la prudencia, termina tomando la senda de la maldad. Es quizá por eso la insistencia del autor del proverbio para motivar a sus lectores a buscar con avidez la sabiduría. Ser sabio traerá un sin número de beneficios, entre los cuales, quizá el más importante sea la capacidad para distinguir las dos sendas que se nos presentan en la vida y poder tomar la correcta, la que traerá beneficios a nuestra persona y a quienes nos rodean, y nos permitirá ser de bendición al mundo. Desarrollemos la sabiduría necesaria para caminar por la senda de los justos. Descubriremos que al caminar por ella solo encontraremos gozo y paz en Jesucristo. Su gracia nos ayude. Isaí Rodríguez Ruiz
En su reposo. 22/05/2023. T25. E2. "Entonces entenderás el temor de Jehová, y hallarás el conocimiento de Dios". Pr. 2:5 Entenderás Dos veces se repite en este capítulo la frase: "entonces entenderás". La idea es que si una persona realiza determinadas acciones, logrará entender otras, lo cual tiene mucha lógica. Hay ciertos conocimientos que solo se adquieren después de ciertos esfuerzos, o de aprender otras cosas. En este caso, la disciplina, el estudio, la dedicación al aprendizaje, la valoración del conocimiento, hará que una persona entienda otras de mayor importancia. Quizá la más interesante de esas nuevas sapiencias sea lograr entender: "el temor de Jehová". Sí, esa frase que a muchos les es difícil de asimilar pues parece referirse a: "tenerle miedo a Dios". Pero justo ahí es donde adquiere tanta importancia la expresión: "entonces entenderás". Es como si el sabio Salomón nos estuviera diciendo: "¿Se te hace difícil entender qué significa el temor a Jehová?, quizá sea porque te hace falta adquirir ciertas actitudes y otros conocimientos antes". Actitudes como la disposición a escuchar el consejo de los padres; tener conciencia de la importancia de ser sabios y prudentes, y buscar fervientemente un corazón dispuesto para adquirir sabiduría. Por supuesto, la lista de los beneficios de adquirir sabiduría será mucho más abundante; pero el temor a Jehová nos dará un excelente punto de partida para todo lo que alcanzaremos cuando seamos sabios y temerosos delante de Dios. Así que la invitación sigue en pie: si queremos entender a Dios, si queremos aprender todo lo que él puede enseñarnos; si anhelamos vivir una vida plena, empecemos por buscar la sabiduría de Dios. Siempre está disponible para quienes la buscan. Isaí Rodríguez Ruiz
En su reposo. 20/05/2023. T25. E1. "Los proverbios de Salomón, hijo de David, rey de Israel". Pr. 1:1 Proverbios El libro de los proverbios es sin duda una joya de sabiduría. Y aunque sin duda es un plus el hecho de que la mayoría de estos proverbios sean de la autoría de Salomón, lo que más destaca en realidad es la lista de propósitos de los mismos que se enumera en los siguientes versículos. Los versículos 2-7 enumeran el propósito de los proverbios. Para entender sabiduría y doctrina, Para conocer razones prudentes, Para recibir el consejo de prudencia, justicia, juicio y equidad; Para dar sagacidad a los simples, (para dar) y a los jóvenes inteligencia y cordura. (para que) Oirá el sabio, y aumentará el saber, (para que) Y el entendido adquirirá consejo, Para entender proverbio y declaración, (para entender) Palabras de sabios, y sus dichos profundos. Como gran colofón del pensamiento, cierra con el primer y gran proverbio, eje central de todo el libro: "El principio de la sabiduría es el temor de Jehová". El libro entero de los proverbios está ahí para guiarnos por el camino de la sabiduría. Dejemos que nos tome de la mano, que nos muestre la senda y que nos haga adquirir el tesoro más preciado escondido en sus letras: la sabiduría. Emprendamos el viaje y disfrutemos de cada proverbio, cada frase, cada palabra. Permitamos al Espíritu Santo que se cumplan los propósitos divinos al estudiar tan maravilloso libro. Isaí Rodríguez Ruiz

Join Wes Tankersley on this episode of Shaping Success as he continues his conversation with Craig Daigle on his journey to success.Craig has said T25 workout was the hardest of his life, but through his mindset for achievement, he realized it wasn't the hardest. The hardest was being overweight, unhealthy, anxious 24 hours a day. He chose the hard for 25 minutes instead of 24 hours a day. He realized that he needed to be alive before he could worry about paying the rent, car payments, and electricity. He had a small apartment with not a lot of space to work out. He says most people will use lac of space as an excuse. Craig admits he's used every excuse to not workout, so when someone makes an excuse, he's heard it all, and he's said it all. He still uses those excuses: He works nights, his kids take up time, etc. Craig's key to success is learning that nothing tastes as good as healthy feels. Healthy means he feels good, sleeps well, and can play with his kids. He took to social media to set himself up for success to hold himself accountable. His mindset is people aren't accountable to themselves. They talk themselves out of it and have a lack of respect for themselves.Craig's secret to success is knowing that the mind doesn't differentiate between negative and positive or true and false. Whatever the mind is fed is what it will believe.An example of this is being upset that $100.00 of the paycheck is going to electricity. If someone is homeless, they would not have an electric bill. What is worse? Having a bill to pay or not having a home? Craig's secret to success is having gratitude. He is thankful he wakes up in the morning when so many don't. He is thankful is able to walk and workout when a lot of people don't have that capability. He is thankful he was the mental capacity to work and provide for his family.Being accountable on social media is prone to negative comments sometimes from family members and people to whom he is closest. They say he won't last a week and he's too fat. Craig points out that he and these people are a lot alike, run in the same circles, and go to the same places. They are jealous because he's out there doing something about his situation while they are still stuck in thCheck out our sponsor The Warriors Collection for coffee, gear and more use code TANK at check out for a special Discount! https://warriorscollectionbrand.com/ Check out our sponsor Tattooed and Successful @tattoedandsuccessfulco use code TANK at check out for a special Discount! https://tattooedandsuccessful.com/Support the showFor merchandise, podcast and youtube: https://linktr.ee/wes.tankersley Join the Success Warrior Crew Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/successwarriorcrew/ This Episode of Shaping Success is brought to you by Terry Levy at Parkway Chevrolet in Tomball Texas.

The most common cause seemed to be hypothermia or simply being too uncomfortable in cold water to push through. The water temperature was a cool 60.8 degrees (mandatory wetsuit) and I admit that's approaching my limit for comfort. Tips to Avoid Swim DNF: Be a good swimmer. If you are swimming the Ironman distance you should be swimming at least 10K per week and preferably 15-20K. Your longest swim should be around 5K (longer than the 4.2K of IM). Cold water exposure in the two weeks leading up to the race. This can be ice baths at home or properly supported cold open water with or without wetsuit as appropriate to be exposed to very cold water. Have a good fitting long-sleeve wetsuit with a 5mm or thermal jersey Neoprene cap that fits snugly but doesn't constrict airway (optional double cap) Booties allowed at 65 degrees or colder Vaseline for your face Bike: The two issues I observed this weekend were mounting and mechanical. Since this was Ironman and most people have their shoes on coming out of the changing tent, not to mention the soft grass surface of the transition area, most do not have the flying mount problem where you can't get your feet in the already clipped in shoes. Most of the near collisions were due to athletes still feeling wobbles from the swim. One guy had his chain get caught I his rear derailer and he nearly made it worse by trying to ride on it. Another had a flat the moment he rode out of T1. He had replaced his perfectly fine tubes with brand new ones the day before the race and apparently pinch flatted them. Billy and I helped him fix his flat. Shame. Tips to Avoid a Bike Mount Disaster: Practice mounts and dismounts Practice change tubes Shake out the bike setup at bike check in If when an issue arises, take a deep breath and slow down Run: Chaffing - avoidable by using anti chaffing products, testing what you will be wearing on race day during race rehearsals and changing into clean and dry run gear in T2.

Endurance News: El Tour de Tucson and Its Dual Personality in the Desert By Bill Plock November 22, 2022, Tucson: El Tour de Tucson circled the fragile ecosystems surrounding Tucson where Saguaro cacti come to life, thirsty rivers cut the desert, and dreamers come to dream. For thousands of years, people have thrived in this at-first-glance difficult environment. Its dry and hot reputation, while well deserved in summer hibernates in November and offers the perfect weather to ride or race. It's this dual purpose that gives this tour a dual personality and makes it unique. Top racers from around the country (the world really) converge in the desert to compete. Riders can qualify for Platinum status to give them a more favorable starting position and a better shot at winning Tissot watches—no monetary prizes. Riders choose 32, 63, or 102 miles. Said ride director TJ Juskiewicz, about 500 race and the other 7,000 enjoy a well-supported tour. The logistics of closing roads and controlling intersections for 7,500 riders to ride or race so many miles during most of the day in a big city is incredible. The winner in the 102-mile race was able to average almost 27 mph thanks to top-notch police support. I took about twice as long and received the same support. I chose to chat as I do, meet some folks and not bonk on undertrained legs and lungs! I made it in part thanks to my podcast partner and close friend, Rich Soares who pulled me more than I pulled him, by a lot! This tour showcased so many personal missions. Whether it was the couple recently married on their honeymoon ride. Or 7-year-old Ariana who rode all 102 miles in about seven and half hours and set a record as the youngest known person to ride a century. Or, Timothy from the Pueblo Road Warrior team (supported by We Ride 4) rocked the 102 miles in his tennis shoes and smiled the whole way. The vibe oozes a recipe of seriousness, fun, and gratefulness. The contrast of colorful cyclists streaming through the desert, pecan farms, airplane graveyards, and adobe buildings on sleepy streets made the time pass fast. Aid stations all featured friendly bike valets to hold your bike. Kids from the Optimist club or the Boy Scouts or many other local groups smiled big and made us feel very welcomed. Said Rich Soares, “The volunteers were great ambassadors of Tucson and the friendly bike valets were a nice touch and surprise” That feeling of gratefulness is not an accident. Said Juskiewicz, “We gave away 550 free bikes to kids and our 50+ non-profit partners raised over $5,000,000 for their charities through the El Tour partnership.” Coloradans were all over the place. Executive Director of Team Evergreen, Jen Barbour won her age group, and Pete Piccolo, Executive Director of Bicycle Colorado was 22nd overall in a very competitive field that included Primal Ambassador and Tour de France star Jens Voigt who finished 53rd. Other ex-pro's like George Hincapie, Bob Roll, and Christian VandeVelde joined in the fun and said Juskiewicz, “having the rock star pros there was something that took this year over the top.” Maybe this tour reflects the native Saguaro cactus more than we know. It takes 75 years for Saguaros to grow “arms” to help for better reproduction and continue to flourish and spread more seeds. They stand tall in the desert and have supported human life for thousands of years. Less than one in a million seeds germinate for this defining plant only found in this area. As this tour ages and grows, it attracts more and more cyclists and helps more and more people. Its arms are dreams and a safe harbor for so many charities raising money to spread more seeds and help humanity. As a late-season destination, a challenging well-run ride, a trip to Tucson makes for a nice warm-up to enjoy Thanksgiving week and reflect on what's important. IRONMAN Arizona 2022 - Pro Race, Age Group Kona Slots, Observations There were reasons to be excited about this pro race. On the women's side you had Sarah True, Skye Moench, Lauren Brandon, Melanie McQuade and others. On the men's side you had 70.3 World Champs 2nd place Ben Kanute taking his first swipe at the full distance. Familiar names like Sam Long, Matt Hansen, Joe Skipper and Bart Aernouts. Pro Women: Lauren Brandon, Sarah True and Skye Moench were 1, 2 and 3 out of the water. Skye would take Sarah's spot at mile 28. By mile 66 Laruen Brandon dropped back to 3rd with Skye leading the way and Sarah just biding her time. Skye entered T2 about 3 minutes before Sara True and Lauren Branden arrived 2 minutes later. About a mile into the run, Sarah True took the front and held that position the rest of the run. By mile 8, Melanie McQuaid moved up to 3rd, but she would fall back to 6th by then finish. At mile 14 they came through and I was giving the pro women splits. Sarah True held on to 1st, Skye Moench held on to 2nd and Daniel Lewis would finish 3rd. Pro Men: Andrew Hosfall-Turner was first out of the water with Ben Kanute on his heels. By mile 30, Ben Kanute was in control with Joe Skipper in 3rd, Matt Hanson in 5th and Sam Long in 7th. Billy Edwards and I saw them come through and called out splits. At T2 it was Kristian Hogenhaug in first, followed by Joe Skipper in 2nd, Ben Kanute in 3rd, Sam Long in 4th and Matt Hanson in 5th. My mile 5, Matt has passed Sam and swapped positions. By mile 12 Joe Skipper and Hogenhaug swap positions. Hogenhaug blows at mile 23 and it's now the podium of Joe Skipper Matt Hansen and Ben Kanute in that order. What's New in the 303: Leaving On A Jet Plane: How To Travel With Your Bike Article and photos by: A.V. Schmit With the major airlines removing the draconian fees associated with flying with a bike, you may be tempted to bring your bike with you on your next vacation. Passengers on American, United and Delta will pay the same amount for a bike as they would for any other piece of checked luggage under 50 pounds — about $30. That's a far cry from the $150 each way to fly with a bike, only a years ago. International flights typically offer two checked bags per passenger with no additional cost, so the idea of traveling for an international IRONMAN or IM 70.3 is a lot more approachable. And… If you plan on racing, having the bike you trained with is an essential part of being successful. “Woot, woot, I can travel with my bike,” they thought, until they realized, “Oh wait, I don't know how to pack my bike for travel.” Fear not, I can show you some pretty simple techniques to keep your “baby” safe on a plane. If you are my age, I'm sure you remember the 1970's American Tourister luggage commercial with the Gorilla. And if you don't recall, here it is on YouTube: The point is… baggage handlers typically tend to be a lot less careful than you might want them to be with your bike. So you need to take steps to prepare your bike for travel the best that you can. For airline travel, there are really two basic categories of luggage to carry a bike — Padded soft case or hard plastic case. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. With a padded soft case, you typically have to disassemble less of the bike, especially on a triathlon bike. But a soft case does not offer as much protection as a rigid case. With a rigid bike case, your bike has more protection, but more of it needs to be disassembled to fit. A rigid hard case does offer more protection than a padded soft case. In the event of a catastrophic situation, like a very heavy piece of luggage falling from a height or the bike case falling off the luggage carrier, either event will likely damage the bike contained within either type of case. Sci-Con TSA 3.0 Triathlon Travel Bag " Trico Iron Case Left, Sci-Con Aerocomfort TSA 3.0 Triathlon Travel Bag. Right, Trico Iron Case. OK, onto packing a bike for travel. In this example I'm packing a Cervelo P5 three in a Sci-Con Aerocomfort 3.0 padded triathlon bag. Step 1 – Remove the pedals, and wipe the grease off the spindles with a paper towel or shop rag. Don't worry, we are going to pack a bit of bike grease for re-assembly when we get to our destination. I tend not to want to travel with a full tube of grease, rather I like to squirt a small blob into a heavy-duty zip lock bag. It's lighter, and you are less likely to run afoul of any hazardous chemical limits. Step 2 — Remove bottle cages and other accessories. Wrap them in bubble wrap for protection and storage later in the process. And, while you're at it, remove any CO2 cartridges, as compressed gas of any kind is not allowed on a plane. Be sure to get replacements at your travel destination. Bottle cages, pedals and rear derailleur ready for removal and padding. Step 3 — If you don't have access to a bike stand, then it makes the most sense to remove the wheels from the bike and use the alloy cradle of the bag to support the bike for the rest of the procedure. A P5, as well as many tri-bike frames, has horizontal drop outs, so you will need to slide the rear end of the bike into the Frame Defender Armature and then use the quick release at the front to secure the forks. If your bike uses thru axles, you will need them to secure the bike frame to the armature. Step 4 — At this point, I like to wrap the frame in closed cell foam to protect the finish from accidental chips or dings. With the popularity of online shopping, you probably have some thin closed cell foam hanging around the house. If not, you might stop by your local bike store to see if they have any leftover foam packing material from in-bound bike shipments. You can also use “bubble wrap,” but I've found it to be less effective than closed-cell foam. Step 5 — Since the advent of 11-speed drive trains, virtually all road / triathlon groupsets have a “master link” in their chains. A master link is a special link that uses a mechanical connection to connect the chain. With a simple pair of specialized pliers, it's easy to remove the chain and package it in bubble wrap. While many boxes and bags make chain removal optional. It's my thinking the more you can do to protect the frame from damage, the better. A chain moving around inside a bag or box can really do a number on your bike's paint. Just take it off. Step 6 — Remove the rear derailleur. On a Shimano Di2 or SRAM AXS, this is a very straightforward procedure. For Di2 you simply unplug the E-Tube wire and use a hex wrench to remove the derailleur. On a SRAM system, simple use a hex wrench and remove the rear derailleur. It is advisable to remove the battery in the case of SRAM AXS as well, prior to placing it in a zip-lock bag and bubble wrapping it. For Di2, just make sure the shifters and the battery are disconnected to prevent accidental “shifting” during travel from draining your battery. For a traditional mechanical derailleur, remove the mounting bolt with the appropriate hex wrench, wrap the derailleur in bubble wrap and tuck it in-between the chain stays and secure it. Be careful not to kink the cable housing. Step 7 — Remove the quick release skewers from the wheels and place them in the pockets on the left and right side of the bag. If your bike uses disc brakes, it's recommended that you remove them prior to packing the bike. I know, it's a pain, but so is a slightly bent disc that is rubbing as the wheel rotates. Most disc wheels are either 6-bolt or center-lock. If your wheels are 6-bolt, you will likely need a T25 Torx wrench to remove and reinstall them at your destination. And if it is 6-bolt, you may want to bring a few extra bolts just in case 1 or 2 of the T25 heads get stripped during the process. If your wheels use center-locks, be sure to pack the tools you will need to get them back on. Step 8 — After you have removed the pedals, chain, rear derailleur, water bottle cages and accessories. Wrap them carefully in bubble wrap and place them in the storage bag that will be placed under the down tup of the frame and secure the bag. This is also a great place to stow the tools you will need to put the bike back together when you arrive at your destination. Step 9 — Add additional padding to delicate parts of the bike, including the shifters mounted on the aero extensions. Insert the wheels into the pockets on the left and right of the bag. Be sure to remove your skewers and wrap them in bubble wrap before you stow them in the bag. Secure the Velcro and other straps and prepare to close the bag. Before you do, it is a good idea to take some pictures of your packing job so there is no question about how the bike was packed in the event there is an incident during travel. Step 10 — BONUS — If you use an iPhone, then I would highly recommend you place an Apple AirTag somewhere in the bag. This gives you extra piece of mind that your bike has made it on the plane safely. An AirTag is a blue tooth device that can use the location data of any iPhone it encounters to pinpoint the position of your bike. Your bike arrives in tact, you've taken the time to put it back together and now it's time to rack it and race the next day.

Normalmente los coches tienen cuatro o cinco plazas. Bueno, los hay de seis, como mi querido Fiat Multipla y biplaza y aunque sean muy poco frecuente en coches de calle, de una sola plaza. Pero los más raros son los de tres plazas. Alguien preguntó en el vídeo dedicado al McLaren F1 si había más coches de 3 plazas. Y me vinieron a la memoria rápidamente dos coches que están en esta lista. Y pensé en hacer un vídeo con 10 coches raros de 3 plazas… Lo confieso: me ha costado y he tenido que tirar de algunos prototipos muy interesantes, de unos cuantos coches de calle y de un coche de competición… que no es de competición. 1. Arrows AX3 (2001). Comenzamos con ese coche que os decía, un coche de competición que no es de competición. Y es que Tom Walkinshaw definía a este coche como un F1 triplaza. Hasta ese momento se habían hecho algunos F1 con una segunda plaza tras el piloto, como hizo McLaren en 1998, con la idea de poder llevar un pasajero y que pudiese sentir las sensaciones de ir un F1. 2. Citroën Karin (1980). En los años 80 y 90 se estilaba mucho llevar prototipos a los salones. Muchos de ellos, la inmensa mayoría, nunca se fabricaron en serie, pero servían para crear tendencias y sondear los gustos del público. El Karin se exhibió en el Salón de París de 1980 y quería demostrar que Citroën según siendo una marca innovadora y futurista. 3. Citroën Osee (2001). Y como vamos en orden alfabético a un Citroën le sigue otro Citroën, también prototipo, pero, esta vez, firmado nada menos que por Pininfarina que buscaba nuevas colaboraciones con otros fabricantes de automóviles y como ya habían trabajado en Peugeot hicieron una propuesta de un deportivo a Citroën. El Osee debutó en el salón del automóvil de Ginebra del año 2001 y contaba con un motor V6 de 3 litros y 195 CV. 4. Koenigsegg RAW (2020). Objetivo: 700 kg y 700 CV. De este prototipo sí que se dijo que se iba a fabricar, pero el proyecto, de momento, no ha salido adelante. Contaba con el motor “freevalve” tricilíndrico de 700 CV y el empleo masivo de la fibra de carbono y otros materiales ligeros le permitían acercarse a ese objetivo de los 700 kg. Iba a ser el modelo de acceso a la marca e incluso de hablo de crear la submarca RAW. 5. Matra Simca Bagheera (1973). Damos un salto atrás en el tiempo y nos vamos a 1973 para hablar de un coche que bien podría ser protagonista de un monográfico dentro de nuestra serie de “coches incomprendidos”. En colaboración con Simca, que aportaba la parte mecánica, hizo este deportivo con tres plazas, motor central y los entonces tan de moda faros escamoteables. A diferencia de otros triplaza, el conductor iba al lado izquierdo. 6. Matra Simca Murena (1980). Sencillamente, la evolución del Bagheera, mejor acabado, más refinado, pero para mí no más bonito. Eso sí, llego a llevar motores de hasta 2.2 litros y 142 CV más acordes a las posibilidades del modelo, pero todavía muy por debajo de las prestaciones que permitía su bastidor. 7. McLaren F1 (1992). Ya hemos hecho un vídeo sobre este coche, que pertenece a la serie de los vídeos de la revista “0a100” que se llama “McLaren: Lo más parecido a un F1”. Te invito a verlo, porque te contamos todos los detalles de un modelo apasionante. Incluso contamos como nació la idea de hacerlo triplaza haciendo pruebas con las sillas de la oficina… pero, como contamos en ese vídeo, creo que es el coche para ir por la calle, que es más parecido a un F1. 8. Murray T25 y T27 (2013). Gordon Murray es un ingeniero que se preocupa de la movilidad, de la polución y del bajo consumo. Y con este objetivo diseño estos dos coches, el T25 movido por un tricilíndrico de gasolina de 660 cm3 tiene 51 CV, pesa 575 kg y su consumo medio es de sólo 3.8 l/100 km y el T27 tiene un motor eléctrico de 34 CV y una batería de 12 kWh de capacidad que le permite obtener una autonomía de hasta 160 km. 9. Nissan Urge (2006). Este deportivo está diseñado por Nissan Desing America Inc (NDA) en La Jolla, California y debutó en el North American Motor Show 2006 de Detroit, y se supone que desarrollaba tres ideas básicas: sobriedad, pasión por las motos y máxima seguridad. 10. Shell Concept Car (2016). Pues sí, Gordon Murray consiguió financiación, pero no de una marca de coches, sino de una petrolífera: Shell. Así que pasaron del eléctrico y se centraron en optimizar el de gasolina, para el que anunciaban un consumo de 2,64 l/100 km, gracias, entre otras cosas y según Shell, a lubricantes especiales. Conclusión. Me gustan los coches distintos, originales, con personalidad… o sea, las rarezas. Así que si os parece, seguiré buscando coches que, por uno u otro motivo, sean raros. Como estos 10 de hoy.

Coronavirus lockdowns have meant the Olympics are postponed, small gyms face threat of permanent closures, professional athletes are training in isolation and a plethora of home workouts are offered online. Could the way we have continued to do sports through a pandemic help the industry become more inclusive in the future? In this episode Petrina and Laurindo check in with Moses James from Innervate Fitness, Paralympic medalist Theresa Goh, rising junior tennis star Michelle Yeo and fitness buff/actor Dwayne Lau. TRANSCRIPT Laurindo Garcia: [00:00:00] Welcome to another episode of Inclusively. In this series, we are asking the question, how has the pandemic changed people's lives and what lessons have we learned that could make a quick pandemic world more inclusive? I mean, host Laurindo Garcia. Petrina Kow: [00:00:13] And I'm Petrina Kow. Welcome, everybody. Well, today's theme is all about sports and fitness. How has this whole circuit breaker affected your ability to do sport and keep fit? You know, as a ex national swimmer, Laurindo. Wow. Let me tell you. I think so. It's so so far as you've known me. I've been the most unathletic both. And, you know, right. Laurindo Garcia: [00:00:40] That's not true. That's not true. You're the one. You're one of the very few people has been very consistent with putting Instagram fitness workouts on in the time that I've known you. Petrina Kow: [00:00:50] So you see, this is the problem, Laurindo. Because every time you do actually see a pose for me is the only time I exercise. So if you count the number of posts, that's the number or type of I've actually exercised and I have a very fraught relationship with them, with sport only because, you know, I think in my youth I overdid it to that point where it wasn't I don't think it was in my blood to be a national, you know, athlete really. I very much wanted to be singing and dancing on stage, which is why I think when I when I decided to take a different path, sports, at least fitness for me took a real backseat because like I always viewed exercise as some sort of punishment. You know, it was a very emotional thing. Like every time I had to put on a swimsuit, it was like, you know, like my body just goes into, like a thing and, you know. But then I kind of took that fitness for granted a lot. From my twenties to my thirties are now in my 40s when I'm feeling everything break down and I'm starting up again. I really kind of wished I didn't have that two year, two decade long sort of hiatus where I did nothing to keep my body in shape, writes it today. And I think, you know, I've been seeing so many people sort of work out on together. And I myself have been taking weekly sort of Zoom yoga classes. So I'm I'm really interested to find out from our company today how they've been all sort of like, you know, doing like those professional sports and athletes. And how is it really affected them? And so today on our panel, we have Moses. James, I think you might find him familiar because we interviewed him for our first episode. He's a co-founder of Innervate Fitness, a fitness social enterprise who offers cross cross fit to senior citizens and people with physical disabilities. And so he is coming, coming to join us. And we'll also be joined by two rising young national sports stars, Michelle Yeo, who has represented Singapore for the Junior Federation Cup under 16. And we'll also be speaking to Dwayne Lau, who was our artisan residents for this episode. Hello. Welcome, Dwayne. Laurindo Garcia: [00:02:54] And our panel would not be complete without national swimmer and Paralympic medalist two years ago. Also be joining us as well and giving her perspective on sports in the time of Covid as well. Welcome Theresa. Right. So shall we dive in? I'm going to go to you, Moses. It's great to have you back on the show. You you Innervate. Fitness had the honour of being featured in our very first episode of this podcast. We're so proud to to have led this whole series with your story. How are you doing? Moses James: [00:03:26] I'm doing OK. Hanging in there. You know, we're really happy that we get to be a part of this initiative. That being because it is doing. Yeah, I think it's been an interesting couple of months for for us. But all this going on. Laurindo Garcia: [00:03:42] I can imagine so where we left off with the last time we spoke to you. You were telling us about how things were looking great for Innervate. I mean, you are you are you are getting a lot of great traction where there are offering of classes for Senior Citizens your Silvers program and also your adaptive programs as well for adaptive sports, among your other offerings for. For other people who you want to keep fit right. And that was the beginning of the year. Right. And so how have things changed for you? Moses James: [00:04:14] So, I mean, on top of the work that we do with senior citizens and persons with disabilities, we also work very closely with the youth at risk. And every year we have a annual fitness charity fundraiser called Operation Broken Wing. And it was scheduled to be executed in February. And I see so in January, were busy planning for it. It took quite a bit of effort to get this thing done. It's like a 500 to 600 people kind of event over the last six years that we've run it we raised. I think close to 800000. This is a very grassroots kind of initiative. So this is quite cool. But once this thing came about, then we had to make a difficult decision to stop and. Was pointed to the end of the year, and then when the circuit breaker kicked in, that order kind of went out the window. So aside from the regular programs that you're running with adaptives and silvers, this big event was also something that kind of took a hit and it really changed our runway for the rest of the year. Laurindo Garcia: [00:05:24] So just to be clear, is it that Operation Broken Wing for this year is still postponed or was it canceled or what's the status with that event? Moses James: [00:05:32] So. So right right now we are planning to hopefully run a small version of it in person and maybe a virtual element to be added on as well. So that's that's the current plan. But we do know, based on how the guidelines are with the regular classes and stuff. It was a mad scramble to kind of launch equipment out on members, you know, and get them up to speed on how to use it and get ourselves familiar with it as well. So I guess that's the biggest, biggest change. Laurindo Garcia: [00:06:10] A lot of the gym owners that I've been speaking to have done similar things. They've quickly switched and offering online classes or work, be it live or recorded, started renting out their equipment for their empty gyms that, you know, it's really heartbreaking to hear about. I've got some rented equipment at the back here myself. And so I can just imagine what that was like having to scramble at the last minute. And you've been doing that since April. And they had announced what the relaxation of the circuit breaker would look like. And they said that gyms would be in a phase, too. So how was that news received at your end? I mean, and how how has going online been of benefit to the company to Innervate, if at all? Moses James: [00:07:02] So for the first part, you got to phase two and when gyms will be open. I think when they announced it, you know, the circuit breaker is going to kick in in that period, that couple of these things kept changing. The rules kept changing. And so it's very tiring to try and stay ahead of it. And when they announced that they were going to extend the circuit breaker. And then subsequently when they announced like phase one, phase two, I think for us, like my partner and I, we kind of came to terms with the fact that hey this uncertainty is huge and there's really only so much planning that's actually going to be effective. I mean, we don't really know. So it's not feasible to to make too detailed a plan. This is going to wear you out. So right now, our stance is okay, face to be doing a wind. It is. But we do know when it happens. These are a few things that we kind of want to do. Will it get people back? Based on what the guidelines are. Facilitate the return of the equipment and then. The question that you asked about how we've had to adapt to it. The online classes that we've been doing, we've been working hard to add value to it because everybody's giving classes online and you can offer your classes for free even, which is what we're doing for now. But the value and making sure that it's something that's sustainable and meaningful for people. It takes a bit of effort. So we've made some headway with that. And we're looking to continue that even after phase two, because we anticipate that there'll be some people who will prefer to continue looking up from home for whatever reasons. So we want to make that a useful experience for them. So that's taken up a lot of our headspace as well. Laurindo Garcia: [00:08:53] I can just imagine the amount of uncertainty you're having to deal with right now at the beginning of circuit breaker. And now it's still something you just it just doesn't make sense to be planning out. But it sounds like you are managing to keep your head above water. Thank you. Do stay on the line with us because we are gonna continue the conversation. I want to welcome Theresa go to the conversation right now. Hi, Theresa. How are you? Theresa Goh: [00:09:18] Hi, Laurindo. I'm doing well. Laurindo Garcia: [00:09:21] Good so. So last time we connected. It's been a little while. But I think that the last time you were in the news was when you announced your your retirement from sports. That was at the end of last year. Was that right? Theresa Goh: [00:09:35] Yeah, I think I retired September, October around there. And then I had a couple of months to myself before I started job searching. And I think I was talking to my friends a couple of these maybe last week or something. And I was just saying how I feel like it was really good timing because I managed to get a job I. Walking for maybe a month or a couple weeks, and then that was really the start of everything. Everything. And then and then now I've been pretty much mostly working from home. So I feel like then the normal for me is working from home, which is I feel like it's gonna be a struggle going back to work. I'm going to be like today. Today. I have to go to work today. Yeah. I think I've been I've been I still been talking to a lot of my friends who either qualified for the Olympic or Paralympic Games or are in the midst of qualifying. And I think they've been. Everything's been on hold. So they've had their own struggles with that, having to move. As with many things, they have to move things online and just digitise everything. So and when the team has to monitor all the workouts. It's all done over Zoom or Skype or whatever. Yeah. I think everybody's just have to they've had to really adapt really quickly because, you know, like, what was this? It is really uncertain. And I think it's expected because of the situation that we we would all like clear a clear kind of road to go out, off, you know, and to know when we can get out of here. But because of this, they kind of unraveling situation, how uncontrollable it is. I think it's so hard to just be able to get a clear answer, which is the root of all the frustration, you know, when you don't know. It's it's hard. Yeah. Laurindo Garcia: [00:11:52] I mean, this year was meant to be an Olympic year. Right. And, you know, I'm sure you've got many friends who were in training still as well. And, you know, we could see that that was the big cliffhanger question a couple of months back, you know, would Tokyo continue or not? It's such a big buildup and people have been training for years up until this point. And so when they finally made the decision, while everybody knew it was the wise thing to do from a public health perspective, there's also there's also an emotional element as well. I mean, what were some of the things that you're hearing about from your friends when you don't need to name any names? But you know what? What was kind of like the. Theresa Goh: [00:12:35] General. Laurindo Garcia: [00:12:35] Vibe? Theresa Goh: [00:12:36] Yeah. Yeah. I mean, frustration is definitely one of the main thing with it applies to everybody. I think when you have a plan and then you are not allowed to carry. True. It is frustrating as hell. And I think it's the same for all of us, everybody, you know, for Tokyo, even though I had no plans to go compete. But I was planning to go and watch. So I had tickets, accommodation. And so even that is has to be postponed and arranged differently because I have to go. I'm not going this year, you know, and I think for a lot of my friends, it's just. Because we're athletes I feel like there's a lot of I like to see the athlete mindset. So they didn't really dwell on it too long. They knew that change was made is done. There's nothing you can do about it. And time really waits for nobody. You can't say it. Times stop. Possibly. You know, there's no there's no there's no way. And so we just kind of roll with the punches a bit and deal with things as they come along.And I think for a lot of my friends, that's the way they're dealing with it, just, you know, dealing with things as they come in. And when they finally announced the dates for the new OGPG games, I think that give some relief because at least there's some something look forward to. But, you know, I think under that, there's always still that. What if by then there's still no clear picture, then what will we do? You know, I think this does that worry. But we put that aside, you know, just kind of what we want with whatever we have right now. I love that. Petrina Kow: [00:14:23] Thanks for saying that, Theresa, about the athlete's mindset, because I think, you know what? What really struck me as especially when I was training was, you know, we we think of it as so much of a physical feat. Right. But then I think all athletes know that is so much more of a mind and a mind game in a way, for, you know, this for a lot of the top athletes and what really sets apart. Right. Big, big champions or whatever. And, you know, and I'm speaking to Ashley, Isabelle's mom, when I was inviting her on the show. And she was also expressing frustration that, you know, in the school system, we have prioritize the academics over sports. Right. But, you know, these were the first thing to go and it's not coming back. And when we we're coming back to school, it's to prioritize the ones who are taking exams. Right, because they have to. And I totally understand the mindset. But yet, at the same time, it does really signal to our population where we put our emphasis, you know, and then we're saying sports can wait, you know? And I mean, I get it there. Everybody has their, you know, sort of like priority is right and where it kind of hits them. But I really appreciate it. You sort of mentioning that, you know, sports is in so many ways is is a mental game. So thanks for that Theresa. Do hang on. We have lots more to chat with about it. But now I'd like to bring on a young lady who who have I've known since she was very, very young and I haven't seen her in a while. And I'm so happy to see how she's progressed and really have grown in her sport. She is ranked number one in 2017 and 18 for her age group. She's represented Singapore in the Junior Federation Cup and tennis. And I think she is actually pursuing this in a full time basis. So she's going around the world training with different professional sort of teams. But obviously, all that has had to take a stop. So everyone say welcome and hello to Michelle. Hi, Michelle. Michelle Yeo: [00:16:28] Hello Petrina Kow: [00:16:28] So I've always known that you've been playing tennis since you were a very very young girl. And you were very powerful. And I think it runs in your in the genes because her mom was the national tennis player as well. But when did this whole sort of like taking it really seriously and go full time happen for you? Maybe you could fill us in on your journey a little bit. Michelle Yeo: [00:16:50] I think I really started to consider this full time tennis path when I was in secondary later part of the year. So that would be in 2018. So in the later part, I was still in school and at the start of last year I decided to go full time. So I moved to China. And in order to pursue tennis while studying online at the same time. Petrina Kow: [00:17:16] Wow. And. And what about like, you know, sort of going to Sec 1 and, you know, playing tennis? Did you kind of go, okay? I think I want to take this seriously, because in many ways, most other kids were just sort of to school and do sport at the same time. But what made you sort of go I won this. Michelle Yeo: [00:17:35] When I was in Primary 6, starting from Primary 6. I said travelling around the region to play a lot of tournaments and that continue into sank one. And I found that, you know, I was not I was struggling to balance both stay in school and study while still going in and going up to play tournament. So. My thought processes like if I'm staying in school, I'm not a great tennis player, but also I'm not a good students. So I decided to go full time to see where this would take me. Petrina Kow: [00:18:03] Yeah. And how has that journey been so far? It's been almost two or three years, right? Michelle Yeo: [00:18:07] This year. The second year. So last year t was great as training a lot. I was playing a lot of tournaments. But this year, at the start of this year, the virus came around. And I've just been. I haven't been on the court in two months has just been very frustrating. Petrina Kow: [00:18:23] Yeah. Gosh, I can imagine. So how have you adapted your training or have you been in touch with your tennis coaches and what have they been telling you to do? Michelle Yeo: [00:18:34] So most of my coaches are in China, so I communicate with them through WeChat. So I would train outside and I would take videos of myself and send it to them and ask, oh, am I doing this right? I've lately I've been working more technical since I'm just at home, so that would be my shadow swings. Not so much like hitting live balls since there's no tennis court to play on. Petrina Kow: [00:18:59] I was just thinking because Laurindo's husband actually showed me a video of him playing tennis into like hitting tennis balls into a curtain. That that could be a new thing, you know, indoor tennis. But also I was thinking about tennis in general as a sport and how the two tennis players are so separated by this massive fence. But are naturally social distancing anyway. So maybe tennis is one of those sports that, hey, guys, maybe we can do this. What do you think? Michelle Yeo: [00:19:33] I think is good. I think we could do that potentially. But there will also be some people who you want to socialize when you go out with your friend. Right. So after you play tennis and you'll be like, hey, let's sit down here and talk for a while. So there's like, you know, Petrina Kow: [00:19:48] That's what that's where the tennis shield, like the you know, the face shields. Come on. Michelle Yeo: [00:19:53] Yeah. Maybe. Petrina Kow: [00:19:55] See, it almost looks like a you know, one of those. What, the obasans used to wear right when they go out and they shield themselves from the sun. It looks the same. So it's cool. You guys will be used to it. Oh, that's so wonderful to hear. So are you are you feeling like. Okay, so your plan was to go full time? You bet. You know, it's based overseas, but now this has happened. What have you learned about this whole process? And what what are you sort of like working to kind of maybe improve? Michelle Yeo: [00:20:28] I feel like this whole experience has helped improve my mental because I have every day I wake up and there's no tournament to prepare for this. I'm not going to go into court, but I start to get a bit I have to do fitness. I still have to work on my technique enough to still communicate with my coaches. So I feel that this is more is it is telling me mentally, more than physically. Petrina Kow: [00:20:54] Yeah. And I mean, I suppose, you know, when you get to travel again and get back to training, maybe this this period would have taught you some very, very valuable lessons. I mean, I suppose we're still in the process, so we don't really know what that might be yet. But it's really great that you're having these, you know, these realizations at such an early age. You know, you sound so mature for your kids. Fifteen. Michelle Yeo: [00:21:19] Yeah Petrina Kow: [00:21:19] That's amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your story, Michelle. And I really wish and hope that for your sake, you will get back in the court again at some some kind of court soon or be able to handle balls and hit them around somewhere. Hang on. We'll be chatting with you very shortly. And next, I'd like to invite a girlfriend whom usually I get to see, you know, donning a wig. And I tell you, this guy has many wigs. Okay. And you might have seen him on YouTube doing many, many parody videos. But one of the reasons I decided to get you on this episode, Dwayne, is because I think amongst the artists or the arts community, you have been such a beacon and such an inspiration to all of us in your fitness journey. I think, you know, sometimes amongst us, we kind of kid and joke about your hashtags, right? Hashtag, keep perspiring. Hashtag keep inspiring. But when we post those sweaty selfies, we have very I at least for me, I have you very much in mind. And I think you have singlehandedly, you know, like made Coach Jake synonymous with all the, you know, performers in Singapore. And he's like the coach to the artists. Right. But tell us maybe about your fitness journey, because it was quite a dramatic shift for you, right, some years back when you decided to start this? Dwayne Lau: [00:22:46] Yeah, I've I've never been a sports person at all since young. And in fact, I was I was a fat kid. I signed up for basketball when I was in Primary 3. And after the first session, they made us run around the school. I just. I can not, I want to quit. And sadly, I didn't have very good teachers or coaches that would encourage me to do so. So I just never went into that realm. So along the way, along the way, I think I became an a little bit unhealthy. So about four years ago, I went for a medical checkup and it's one of those compulsory medical checkups in the army. And they said, hey, you need to do something about your weight and your health because you stand a very high risk of heart disease. And I was like, oh, no, I don't what do. I mean. I've been I've been trying you know, I go online, I see YouTube videos, I follow them, I do HIIT exercises. I did this thing called T25. But if you don't have anybody to be accountable to is just yourself. And the YouTube video that doesn't know that you exist, you know that it stops after a while. So finally I thought, OK, yeah I, I really need to do something about it. And I went online and I was looking for a coaches and I found this particular coaches names, Coach Jake, and he was a mutual friend. So I asked my friend, hey, is this guy reliable? Is he just in for the money or what? You know, is he good? So I had a chat with him online and I met up with him and he was telling me, you know, what are your goals? I said, I basically need to be healthy. And of course, I want to lose weight. And I'm I'm an actor. And the industry saw the aesthetics. And the physicality is also important because sometimes if you're too big or, you know you're too heavy, it's very hard to take on certain roles. And you might I always was getting cast as the father as the old man because I was big. So I somehow now I look much older than myself. And it was a bit frustrating saw there was there was a point. I said, okay, like maybe I'll just be a fat actor, you know, it's okay. But I think for me what was most important was a health that I needed to arrest that problem. And I thought, okay, I'll go with this. And cause Jake told me something very important. He said, I'm not here to get you fit and point. I'm here to help you in your health. You know, I'm not here about the aesthetics. The aesthetics will come. So don't hunger for best ethics, hunger for for consistency. And things will flow. And I thought that was very wise was because then I won't keep looking in the mirror. You know, I was just doing it. And it's been four years and I am still with Coach Jake. And he put me on different programs, including diet programs as well. And I saw I mean, my body was changing. I mean, I lost weight. I built muscles in areas I didn't know. I have muscles. And I was working out very consistently and I became a lot healthier. I fell sick less. I've seen a doctor very, very little in these four years. And I'm I'm really happy for that. And I mean, I'm keeping it consistent because it is it is a journey. I mean, you know, there's new goals that you have to to keep setting for yourself. So you don't. You don't at all. Petrina Kow: [00:25:46] Yeah. And I mean, how is it actually direct, directly affected your work? So now that you have had this level of fitness and you look different. Like how how have you seen the way you've been casted maybe or even just in your own performance? Dwayne Lau: [00:26:00] Right. I think it has given me a lot of stamina in terms of choreography and musicals. So recently that was last year we went to Shanghai for this musical called the Liao Jai Rocks. And it was it was shown on YouTube a few weeks ago by the theater practice. And it's a very intensive musical. The choreography is crazy, is like doing HIIT and singing at the same time. So when when we were cast for the show, the director told us, you guys need to condition your bodies before you come in for rehearsals. And we're like. What are we doing? Why do we need to condition our body before rehearsals starts? And I think I went in a little bit apprehensive, but I was like, okay, like, yeah, can I get four years of, like, constant hit all the time and all. How bad can it be? And I'm quite glad that it wasn't too difficult because I wasn't like finding myself. I did find myself panting. My core actors, though, some of them need a bit more time to get conditioned because we would do a whole chorus with full choreography. I would be okay. They would be. I'd like a hashtag. Coach Jake. Yeah. So it has really helped me. Yeah. It has given me a lot more confidence about myself also. And in terms of my physicality as well, you know, I don't feel so heavy. I don't feel so cumbersome. I'm a lot more agile. So it definitely has helped me in terms of my my movement and my physical space, my mental speeds as well. A lot more confident and a lot more alert. So that helps in the reception of the choreography and the steps. Petrina Kow: [00:27:36] And I guess, you know, later on you'll you'll understand why I asked him to come here, because I think only he could have performed this ridiculous song, which he adapted, you know, lyrics to from other musicals. And he is literally swinging Kettleback Kettlebells and doing burpees as he is dancing and singing. Okay. Only Dwayne Lau can do this because after watching it, I was just panting in my living room, having done nothing. Right. But thank you so much for sharing your passion with us. You know, I have hired Coach Jake for myself. I have worked out with you online. It is intense people, but it is such a wonderfully warm community of people who have come together to really sort of share their love for just sort of, you know, keeping each other accountable and fit. And I think more than anything is just your your positivity and your enthusiasm. That is really infectious, Dwayne. That is that is so wonderful. So do stay on the line. We're gonna be chatting with you again. But, yeah, over to you. Laurindo, we can talk about this. We're not throw it open to the floor now, so to speak. So we've got some interesting questions to pose to you guys. Laurindo Garcia: [00:28:49] Yeah, that's right. I mean, we we we live in extraordinary times, right? We're seeing the sports industry, the sports sector do things that we thought they would never do before. I mean, first of all, the the the the thing that nobody saw coming was just the closure of a lot of professional sports. You know, the football, basketball, all these things shut down earlier on in the year. And I know many people were crying as a result of all of these announcements. But then as the pandemic has evolved and progressed and now we're seeing new things, you know, Petrina and I were talking before we started the the today's episode and talking about how the NBA are now in residence at Disneyland. I mean, among all things like, you know, the way I see this is that, you know, professional sports are trying to find a way to keep the show going. It's it's almost theatrical. But to those spectators, right. They're gonna be living in isolation, just like the football teams in Europe are also just playing to stadiums with nobody there. Right. Is that what would you what do you read about Petrina? Petrina Kow: [00:29:55] Yeah. And, you know, even for in in Japan. Like baseball fans now can text and send cheers and jeers via an app. So there they're actually like. So they'll bill they'll like put it around these loudspeakers into the stadium to recreate the feeling of being playing to a spectator as those that knew him or like. And it's coming out of speakers in an empty stadium. So it keeps that atmosphere alive because so much of spectator sports is the fans. Is the atmosphere as a sounds and all of that. Right. So I don't know what you guys think about that and how, you know you know, how do we see perhaps if if this was a way forward? How do we see sports adapting? I mean, I think the only thing I have questions about is maybe swimming because like, how do you bring Zoom into the water. Laurindo Garcia: [00:30:53] From all of these things? We'd love to hear from you. What new opportunities do you see with all of these innovations? I mean, surely with with things going online, with the greater use of technology, then surely there are groups who have not been able to participate before, are now suddenly included. Theresa, what do you what do you think? Theresa Goh: [00:31:13] I definitely think when one of the first things that I realized quite quickly when everything started going online was that there were certain events I felt like would suddenly go to, you know, previously they were held that maybe like upstairs and there was no order access to it physically. So when it moved online, suddenly I didn't have to do anything but click, go into a room, you know. So in that aspect, I felt like the access was so different that it was suddenly accessible to me. But of course, that's less only from my point of view. I had difficulty's physically accessing the space. There's still a kind of access points, like whether they have captions, whether they have sign language, you know, this kind of stuff which I don't need excessively. I said accessibility wise. But there are people who do. And in the original kind of space, there would still have not been like sign language interpreter. So nothing has changed, you know, for some people. I feel like when it comes to sport, a lot of times we were. A lot of us are not just a sport, but in general we're really comfortable the way we were. And then pretty used to human contact, physical contact, and then, you know, like having to be able to physically move your athlete and show them the right stance to be. I think we were all kind of taking that for granted. And then now we have to do it online. We have to learn how to use our words. And then I think that that kind of I hope makes better coaches. Being able to communicate better with people. I think I hope that helps that this kind of forces people to get out of their comfort zones to be better to improve. Yeah, I think I kind of look at it as a. From a positive point of view. Cause just as so much negativity, I just can't take on anymore. So this does my my way of looking at it is how positive things occur also. And to also look at the end of hopefully the end of the rainbow and being able to see good things come out of it. It's a terrible time. Let's let's all be honest. Like is not is not a good thing we're going through. But there's still ways to look at it positively. Petrina Kow: [00:33:47] Yeah. I mean, Michelle, for you in in in tennis, I know it's very much, you know, you against your opponent, but at the same time, it's very much a spectator sport as well. So have you felt I mean, do you find that, you know, do you play better when you have people there cheering and rooting for you or do you actually not need an audience? Michelle Yeo: [00:34:07] Personally, I don't really pay much attention to the audience. So if there's a crowd there, there's no crowd there. I feel like I play the same. So that's like it does affect me. But from this from the Covid 19, I feel that a lot of things have went online and it's not as easy like as I say, it is nice, easy to come. I feel like it's I mean, it's not as easy as I thought it would be to communicate my thoughts. Like earlier in the second break, I had injured myself, so I had to call my physio and she was like she didn't really know what was happening with my wrist because she would if I go to her, she would carry out some tests. And you know what? What happens? But I had to do the test by myself because she couldn't be here physically to tell. Check out my wrist. Yeah. Petrina Kow: [00:35:00] Yeah. And you be like, I can turn my wrist. Two degrees. Right. But my fourth finger. And I'll go up. Michelle Yeo: [00:35:08] Yeah, something like that. Petrina Kow: [00:35:11] Oh, my goodness. Yeah, I know. I'm very, very, very looking forward to a massage. That's all I can say to the point that I actually bought myself one of those massage guns was how desperate I was. So I highly recommended, by the way. What do you reckon, Moses? I mean, what are some of your thoughts on that? Moses James: [00:35:29] Like, I think that all of this has forced people to find ways to stay connected online. I guess that's the only thing that can be done immediately. So because of this as well, it's kind of given us a little bit more access like Theresa said. But to to beneficiaries and people that we normally wouldn't have had a chance to work with or explore working with because we are constrained by the physical resources we have left. Can we go down. How many people do we have to send to a place to teach? We were like with some senior activity centres as well. And so we're looking with these organisations like how can we use technology to bring that fitness for these people even though we can't go to them physically? And I mean, it's kind of been shared already, but making that human connection now without being able to physically be present someone is extremely challenging. You know what it's like being able to give a tactile cue to an athlete or to assess what's wrong with them in person. Like that's so much easier to do and we don't really have that now. So I agree with these. I share about how it's kind of forced us to rethink exactly how we're going about doing our craft. And it's it's a good and a bad thing because inherently certain groups do not benefit from this. Like we've had classes. And we do it all the time as well, that we've got classes where we have hearing and visually impaired individuals in the same group and and on. Zoom, when you have this like it's been bumpy trying to conduct a class for everyone when their class puts someone who is visually impaired, who's who doesn't know that the camera, even though is facing them, they don't know that it's not perfectly very wanted to be at the same time with them verbally explaining something like my hearing. But he has no idea what's going on. So we're frantically trying to sign or type to him. So that's been a bit bumpy as well. I guess it's a limitation of what we're doing now. And the other thing that I think is a good thing that has come out of all this, everybody coming together online, is that it reinforces now. Now everyone has like a shared struggle is very obvious. And so it kind of reinforces to our community, at least, they're like, hey, look, this is a safe space for you to open up if you're not feeling too good. You know, the narrative about constant positivity sometimes can be a bit contrived, feels a bit forced. It's like you need to be positive. Pressure's on you. You have to portray a happy image to everybody all the time. And I think because this affecting everyone, like we have had a unique chance now to. When we hold our Zoom socials and like the aunties and uncles and the young kids and adaptive athletes all come together and just talk. They get a chance to kind of feel safe in knowing that, hey, if I don't feel too good or I'm kind of gone, I have a community here. I have access to someone who is willing to try and help me out, even if I'm doing too well themselves. So I guess there's been one benefit of all that's happened. Yeah. Petrina Kow: [00:38:52] Yeah. Thanks for that. I mean, I, I think it's so wonderful that you are able to pull these different communities together in the one space and then have them kind of meet this maybe, you know, in a physical space, they would not normally have had a chance to bump up against each other. So usually before we close, we have one question that we'd like to pose to all our guests. We'll start with you, Dwayne. If you had a magic wand and I know you have many, honey. What would you change about the way, you know, our society is arranged at the moment? And if you could, you know, make maybe it's sports or anything else really more inclusive. What would you do with that? Dwayne Lau: [00:39:38] Yes, I. I think I. Being a fat kid. I think it's necessary to be able to help educate us, inspire bigger sized children who may not be very sporty. So I think if fat kids can know, hey, don't worry, let's let's have fun. This particular sport, you know, I wouldn't call it a syllabus, but something that can inspire them because I think there's Tough Club, so it feels as though when you're a fat kid, you're doomed for a fat lifestyle unless. And it's always an inspiring story that causes them to change. You know, are a lot of like bodybuilders now who used to be fat kids. But I feel that if that inspiration can come at a very early age in primary schools, something that can inspire them. A program. Take away the Tough Club, the shaming, you know, it's something that can. Hey, this is something you can do. If we can come up with that. I think the world will be a better place. There'll be lesser shaming. There'll be people with more confidence. You know, people will be more confident by themselves about their bodies and about their energies. So that's what I'd like to change if I had the power. Petrina Kow: [00:40:44] I think you are in some ways doing that already. Dwayne, so thank you for that. Michelle, how about you? If you had a little magic wand, what would you do with that? Michelle Yeo: [00:40:52] There's a lot of things I would do that. But I feel like over the past few years, the tennis community has been getting more and more inclusive. This this was done through team events like into schools and team tennis leagues. But I feel like what would help the tennis community become more inclusive would be maybe organising more charity events and volunteer work. Personally, I have taken part in a few, too. I think I believe two years back I took part in a tour, a volunteer charity work for one of the four WTA that was organised by WTA. And so in this event, we are introducing younger kids to the tennis. So I through this, I found it is very rewarding. And another example, when I my friends and I, when we were in China, we also took part in the coaches conference. So these are some examples of the charity work. But I feel like we could do more as a team in this community. We could hold more to charity and volunteer and opportunities for the tennis community to not only make the tennis community community bigger, but it can also help us bond and become closer. Laurindo Garcia: [00:42:14] I love that, Michelle. I think more sports for good, tennis for good is definitely something that could really empower and include more people who are generally don't have the opportunities to do this. I think that's a great segue way to you, Moses. You've been in the business of trying to do more opportunities, more events to enable youth at risk, seniors and also people with disabilities over the years. And so kind of moving moving that for, you know, if you had that magic wand, then what would be one thing that you would do to make these port sector more inclusive? Moses James: [00:42:51] I think if I had that magic, one thing I do is weave it and somehow get everybody on the same page. All the key stakeholders, like from governing bodies to the, you know, gyms, private sectors, to the end users, to people who are working in charities and looking for programs like. This is a good chance right now what has happened. I mean, yeah, there's a lot of advocacy coming up. People are speaking out for the fitness industry, trying to get it up and running in. Everyone's coming together now. And if everybody's on the same page about inclusion and all the good they want to do and how we're going to get it done without having to, you know, slide your own agenda again. I that's that's going to make a huge difference. That's what I'd use that magic wand for. Laurindo Garcia: [00:43:40] So getting more alignment and making sure that we're all on the same page and that there's clarity in it being a party as we move forward. Thank you for that, Moses. How about you, Theresa? How would you use your magic wand? Theresa Goh: [00:43:53] I think I'm pretty much on the same page with the with Moses. And I think if we all had a clearer vision to work towards without hidden agendas, I think that would be really helpful. No diversion. I think for me, it would just be on kind of my own selfish point of view because I used to be a Paralympian. I think just being able to see better equality on that stand would be something I would. I'm looking forward to. I think I've seen a lot of progress over the past number of years and in being able to see people take disabled athletes seriously and taking our craft seriously. Not kind of seeing us as a second hand Olympic Games. I think that would. Well, that would be ideal. Anything. For this. It boils down to the very, very basic essence of seeing a disabled person as a person. And then you build from there, because I think a lot of times that is the from that foundation of how you view a person with disability. Yeah. Laurindo Garcia: [00:45:23] So changing mindsets is what I heard as what. Theresa Goh: [00:45:27] Mind sets and other things, Laurindo Garcia: [00:45:29] Mindsets and also elevating the craft. Right. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Ok. Thank you so much for all of those ideas. And we're putting that out into the universe and hopefully ah ah ah. Our wishes and our magic wands will, will come through. We're in the homestretch. In a minute, Dwayne, you'll be taking us out with a song. Now I know there's a story behind the song that you'll be offering us today. What is that story? Please, please tell us more. Dwayne Lau: [00:45:57] Well, I was commissioned by the Esplanade Flipside committee to write a show for this this program. And it was called. So I wrote the show and it's called Hashtag Goals. And it's about basically achieving your goals in life. And if you don't have a goal, basically you don't the vision. You can't do anything. So you have to set goals. And I wanted the show to be about my fitness journey. So I thought, okay, I need I need to have, like, a key song about. About working out. And I need to show kids that I have become fit. Oh, yes. You know. So how can I do this? And I have to show kids that I am also a performer. Musical theatre performer. That I can sing. I can dance can. And I can bloody well thought. I'm like a quadruple threat. So I thought, OK, maybe I I'll find a song. So I thought, you know, I chose a song. You Can't Stop The Beat by Hairspray. So, you know, and I thought, OK, can't stop the beat. That's quite nice because, you know, don't stop. won't stop. Keep going. And it's about it's about consistency and continuity. Right. And so I thought, OK. So I rewrote the lyrics to Can't Stop The Beat. And basically the entire song is a song where I do HIIT. So I'm doing Swinging Kettle Bells. I'm doing burpees. I'm doing crunches. I'm doing Chase The Rabbit. I'm doing a Russian Twist, Jumping Jacks, the works. And it's accompanied by Julian Wong. So it was quite fun to write. I wrote it was like, okay, no problem, I can do this. When I started choreographing for it. Right. And there was a choreographer for this thing, so I was like, oh my gosh, I really need to practice this so that when I'm performing it, I don't wanna die because I have to sound perfect right. So every day I did it as a workout, you know, like my normal routine. I would literally it will be HIIT because the song is four minutes. So it's literally one one HIIT routine. If you do Tabata, it's four minutes. Right. So is it really Tabata. So you're singing see at the same time. So I managed to do it and it was really fun because the audience's faces were like, what was going on? Is he singing his prerecorded? And I was like. No it's live. Because you would see me drenched. And I think, though think I was more worried about was my microphone getting spoiled and they wouldn't be able to hear me properly because the microphone would soak you my sweat. So I told the technicians, you know, you guys need to wrap it up so that it doesn't get soaked by my sweat. And I really want to do this because it was a journey about inspiring people I wanted to like. I think Petrina, I mentioned earlier the hashtag that I use is: keep inspiring. And I think it's very important that we in whatever we do, we inspire people because people have inspired me in my life. And that's why I do what I do. And if I can't inspire other people, then there's no point in life, basically, you know, because you don't live for yourself. So I wrote I, I wrote this song, and I hope you guys enjoy it and you are inspired to keep on going well, wherever endeavours you have. Don't stop the beat. Petrina Kow: [00:48:48] I have to say, Dwayne, you could probably, you know, do a very successful online, like aerobics class, you know, where you just teach people this exact routine and call it, you know, wanna to be a quadruple threat? And, you know, everybody that sing, dance, act and swing kettlebell at the same time. I'll tell you. I'll sign up for that. Once again, Laurindo Garcia: [00:49:12] A musical HIIT Petrina Kow: [00:49:12] A big big. And you can put up a show at the same time. Right. Once again, a big, big thank you to all our guests today.

Series 1 Episode 1 What Can We Say…It's Diagnosis Day! In this episode, What Can We Say…It's Diagnosis Day!, Angie starts off talking about how she had her acupuncture appointment. And how she found a cancer support centre that offers various complementary therapies. Karlee shares her experience with lymphoedema and how she gets her arm massaged. Then Angie shares her diagnosis day and how it took a long time to get there. She was diagnosed the day before her Sister's birthday at 6:03 pm. Angie read her diary entry 4 hours before being diagnosed. Angie was in shock, but was relieved to know what her body was dealing with. Karlee was diagnosed on June 3 and realises they have 6:03 pm and 6/03 in common. Karlee realised no sleep was a good thing and lack of sleep lead to finding her lump. She was in denial to the point at biopsy when she was still saying doing T25 by Shaun T was why her arm pit was swollen. Karlee wanted to believe it was all a dream. The reality hit when she went to 'that door' and she had to trust her surgeon with her life. In this episode, we discuss: · Accupuncture · Lymphoedema · Lung Cancer · Breast Cancer Follow our Podcast: https://anchor.fm/mommyhadalittlecancer Instagram: @mommyhadalittlecancer In this episode, we mentioned the following resources: · https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/lymphoedema/ · https://breastcancernow.org/ · https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/acupuncture/ · https://www.lung.org/lung-health-and-diseases/lung-disease-lookup/lung-cancer/
When you say you're going to do something, there's no other way to validate it than through your consistent and relentless amount of ACTION. My man Tony S is a prime example of what can happen when you Go 110% ALL IN on yourself and back up what you say you're going to do and DO IT. Just a month ago, Tony was "always too busy" for himself. He had little to no desire to do much of anything. He had hit the HEAVIEST weight he had ever been in life and it was, in his words, "DEFEATING". His confidence was at an all-time low and he was at his wit's end. Then, he scrolled upon an AD for Forged FATHER. He saw the picture of me and thought to himself, "NEVER... I wouldn't be able to achieve that". He looked at the other before and after pics and started to this it looked too good to be true... He then thought the program itself might have been a SCAM. Or it was probably just some sort of gimmick, after-all, Tony had tried P90x's, T25, and Insanity... He had a bunch of workout equipment at home... He wasted $5K on a home treadmill and workout station... How would this "Forged FATHER" project be any different from the other crap that was out there? Well, fast forward to today, Tony's beyond happy that he made the decision follow-through and make a change for himself. Just 4 weeks into the program, Tony has dropped 24 lbs and 2 belt sizes. He's now got more energy than ever and his confidence is through the roof! He's got a better connection with his kids as he's more active with them and he's actually EXCITED to workout and push his body every day. Long story short, Tony has got back his EDGE in life. This is just the BEGINNING of something amazing... I can't wait to see what Tony achieves next. === Forged FATHER Resources === Join Travis’ High-Level Private Coaching Group, “The Forged FATHER Project” - For Ex-Athlete DAD’s who are driven to lose 20-30 lbs and DESTROY THE DAD BOD ONLY...

In this podcast, Dave reveals one of his greatest passions- working out! He's never been a jock, but he has put a ton of effort and resources into staying in shape. Since moving to Minnesota, he's invested in products from Beachbody, the makers of P90X, Insanity, and T25. Have you ever felt like you never got the financial education, the business education that you wanted? Many physicians feel this way and with all of the time spent on training and residency, it's not surprise. As he's reflected on these exercise products and their business and their marketing, he extracted 3 practice building lessons that physician can apply from Beachbody.

Prioritising is something that we all need to do in order to get things done. Multi-tasking is a myth, and we humans can only focus on one thing at a time. But how do we choose what to focus on when we have a million things to do? Dave & I discuss how to prioritise and get things done in the most efficient ways possible. We've both struggled with it in the past and found paths that work for us, but will it work for you? Only you can judge it, but here's some help along the way.

Bobby, Ann and Meredith are tangled up in lanyard talk as they recap TBTL’s week at (or at least adjacent to) the PRPD conference in Phoenix, and it seems no amount of Alaska Board Room soup or nearly nude hotel room T25 is going to give Luke or Andrew Bill Murray-level confidence. Also, Ann recommends the movie Breach, Christy asks us to tell you about Jesus Creek Mysteries, and we all agree FedEx is the worst. This episode also includes a preview of our upcoming Friday show featuring Phyllis Fletcher in Minnesota with StuBot and Ann.

This week is a bit different. I've got my co-worker in DC, Shahed Chowdhuri on the show, along with Pek Pongpaet (pong-pat) and Daniel Pesina. Shahed and Pek grew up together, and Pek met Daniel while studying at his Wushu. Daniel played Johnny Cage and ninjas Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, Smoke, and Noob Saibot in several Mortal Kombat games, and Pek has worked on 6 MK games spanning 10 years. Master Pesina is perhaps most famous for his work as Johnny Cage and the ninjas in the first two Mortal Kombat games. He has also worked on films such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: Secret of the Ooze, Book of Swords, Press Start, and Mortal Kombat Fates Beginning, winner of the 2015 Urban Action Showcase Best MK Film award. Pesina appeared as one of Shredder's foot soldiers in the 1991 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze. Pongpaet’s expertise ranges from product design and development, and martial arts. Prior to Pinstagram, Pongpaet was VP of Product at Spoton, a loyalty and social media company. He's worked at Accenture Technology Labs in the research department coming up with next generation user interfaces. He was introduced to Chinese martial arts (Wushu) late in life when he met Master Daniel Pesina in 1998. He opened Pek to a new world of skill, discipline, artistry and mastery that would come to consume and permeate all of his life. His martial arts experience has led to motion capture roles in 6 Mortal Kombat games over the next 10 years. [T3:00] Where did the idea of Mortal Kombat come from?

Heartsong Fit With Vickie Maris | Healthy Ways to Address Stress
Would You Like to Hear a Farm Story? For this episode, I took the handheld recorder out in the snow and sat near the barn with the llamas. My Connemara pony, Kerrymor Madison, stood next to the fence, and our Jack Russell Terrier, Hope, joined the conversation. You’ll get to learn about life on the farm as I describe our one-eyed llama, Stunning, whom Madison is so careful with as he moves around her. I also describe the coloring of Primary Colors and how we send the fleeces, sheared in the spring, to the mill for processing into rovings and yarn. I also share a story about the harsh 2014 winter and the day we found Lily, the llama, shivering in the barn. Lily got to live in the old farm house for a few hours as she warmed up and enjoyed watching Let’s Make a Deal on the TV. If you’d like to watch the video that Vickie mentions of her and Madison out in the heavy snow, you can find it on the Youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/vickiemaris Did You Work Out Today? Vickie encourages you in your fitness journey as she talks about her experience following the schedule in Focus T25 to build cardio, strength, and flexibility. She has finished the first five weeks of Focus T25, or the Alpha section, and has moved on to the final five weeks, or Beta. My thoughts about Focus T25: “There are three things that really stand out to me in this program. 1) I love Shaun T. He is an amazing athlete and professional fitness trainer. He keeps me motivated, and, well, focused! I also love that these workouts are designed to be done five days a week and are only 25 minutes each. They fit in my day very well. And 3) the modifier who does a low-impact version of the moves has enabled me to do this difficult program and gradually work up to some of the full versions of the moves. “My body has really been toning as I do this program, and the inches are melting from my waist line. Love it! If you’re doing this program or any workout routine, I encourage you to do what I do and keep track of your workouts online at Team Beachbody. I like to watch my workout calendar fill up in the month. I also keep track of my stats and track my progress in weight loss, inches lost, my decreasing blood pressure and more. You can set up a free account through my Beachbody website.” http://www.beachbodycoach.com/heartsongfit Feedback Please leave your Feedback at Apple Podcasts which is so helpful as I produce future episodes.
