Following on from Learning Snapshot 0.06. Yes, we are dropping the “Learning” part and calling them Snapshots, as it’s part learning and a mix of other things. Talking of this, 0.07, 007, the new bond is coming out!
Funny enough it is roughly another 4 months since my last post. South East Asia is definitely an interesting place to be in right now (and really the whole world, who would have guessed this!). It’s been very challenging to travel, quarantines (14-21 days one way) really put you off. We have been trying to get to Singapore but that’s proven to be very challenging.
Intermittent Eating / Fasting: I started this randomly back in 2018, during one of my trips to Dubai. I have been doing it on and off, doing 16/8 mainly with rare days of 24 hour fasts. I started it again but on and off this whole year. Been more consistent the past couple of months.
It’s an amazing feeling.
Mobility & flow training: Started this month to do Qi Gong again. Doing it in the morning and evenings, feels good. I can really feel the energy moving in my body and around me. It made me miss my Wing Chun days on the rooftops of Hong Kong. How that feels really far far away right now, given the travel restrictions.
Picked up some gym rings and wow. The balance required is a lot. I don’t have enough at the moment. I tried to do a dip on the gym rings and was wobbling the whole way lowering down, and I couldn’t even get back up.
My training now consists of these 4 movements: Planche Pushup, hanging knee raises, pike pushups + band back pulls. I will be adding the gym rings and leg rolls.
As you can see, I am doing less of the Knees Over Toes Guy training.
