Chinese New Year Goodies Vs Ironman Traininig

This is the time of the year when everyone will be guilt-free and indulge in the Chinese New Year Goodies, Bak Kwa, Pineapple Tarts, Almond Cookies, and all the scrumptious food at the reunion dinner table. Its a tough position for me this year as I am exactly one month away for the Ironman Langkawi. I will have to be really careful with my junk food intake for once.

The training must go on. No matter what. I will still have to train to bring my power to weight ratio to the highest possible. So here is my plan:



Chinese New Year Eve (Sunday): 60km bike ride in the morning before reunion dinner (Steam Boat) at night

Chinese New Year Day 1 (Monday): Slot in a 30mins run in the morning and a 1hour spin on the bike in the evening

Chinese New Year Day 2 (Tuesday): Rest (Control the junk food day)

Chinese New Year Day 3 (Wednesday): 160km Bike Ride

Chinese New Year Day 4 (Thursday): Bike/Run Brick with Girlfriend

Chinese New Year Day 5 (Friday): Bike to work and back (est. 100km)

Chinese New Year Day 6 (Saturday): Swim/Run Brick

Chinese New Year Day 7 (Sunday): Team Bandung Ride

Chinese New Year Day 8 (Monday): Resume Synergy Swim Class

Chinese New Year Day 9 (Tuesday): Rest

Chinese New Year Day 10 (Wednesday): Swim Class With Synergy

Chinese New Year Day 11 (Thursday): Rest

Chinese New Year Day 12 (Friday): Rest

Chinese New Year Day 13 (Saturday): 25km run

Chinese New Year Day 14 (Sunday): Team Bandung Ride

Chinese New Year Day 15 (Monday): Aquathlon Training with Synergy

The Super Multi Vitamins!

Well, what I have been taking multi-vitamins for a while for my training and really I must say that I really appreciate the importance of this stuff. I am really not a faithful believer of diet...hahaha....ask my colleagues and you will find out what I have for lunch. So, it is very very important for me to make it up especially when I am planning and training for the Ironman distance race. I don't wanna break down due to nutrition deficiency.

So, what did I do? See what the top athletes eat for training. I found out that when training becomes intense, you need sustain vitamins, nutrients and minerals to keep yourself going. After attending workshops and seminars, of course with videos and worldwide web. I found what I am looking for. A complete systems of nutrients that I need.



Used by Asafa Powell (World record holder for the 100m sprint, 9.77sec) and Liu Xiang (World record Holder for the 110m hurdles). Double X has
12 vitamins, 9 Minerals, and 17 plant Concentrates. I love it. This is one of the stuffs that I rather take than anything inferior. It's important to me as I am concern with the things that I take.



I don't know about you. I rather take what the pros are taking to make me feel good on recovery. It's only about S$69 to help me to eat well and recover well. Why not?
