What is your secret and training regime? How many tiger balls do you eat every week?

 

Tongkat Ali, my friend! Joking lah.

 

Secret is just finding a balance between work and exercise. I try to work out at least twice a week in gym. I'm not naturally-gifted in IPPT, so had to make up for it through trainings, esp pull-ups. Then whacked hard at treadmills for 20min to have complete body workout.

 

Oh yes, diet plays a part too! Get your weight down as 1st priority. Pls read the thread on the low-carb diet. Offers pretty decent suggestions on what to eat. :)

If you think like that, then yah IPT is for you. I prefer to think of my workout as a lifestyle that I can maintain for life, even after I MR. :wub:

Still can hit silver easily esp the last few years when I exercise more regulary. When I was in my 20s, just need to train 2 months before the test date and can get silver already. Now that I am late 30s, will need more time. Actually my results in the last 3 years better than my results in my 20s which I think is due to more regular exercise.

 

I can never hit gold because I am one of those who cannot run fast. Fastest ever was 10 min and that was in BMT. [bigcry] How I wish I can run a 10 min again.

so far after ORD 6 IPPT liao.. all gold. :D

 

funny thing is, the only time i got gold during NS was when i was a cadet.. after commission really bo chup.. now after ORD, actually more onz than last time.

 

just turned 30 last year... so far 2.4km never gone above 9:35.

 

I guess key is to exercise regularly.. and when IPPT comes, step up a bit.. too many people tried to train up last min. without a proper fitness base, it is very very tough.. a little running each week always help to maintain fitness, but of coz you need to have the discipline..

 

Why not just start exercising? Dont take it as a chore to clear IPPT.. getting fitter is good for yourself too, win-win situation.
