Exercise regime

-
This is what I have started and hope to continue on a regular basis:

(1) Each morning (except on the day of morning tuition and also on the day of yoga class), go for 20 mins of walk, followed by 10 mins of core and arm strengthening exercise.

(2) Once a week yoga exercise at home for about 50mins or so, with about 5 - 10 mins of pilates within it.

(3) Go for an hour of yoga class every Sunday.

With this, I hope to not only achieve good health (both physically and mentally) but also to lower my bad cholesterol.

Paul,
Thanks for the info.

During the 20mins walk, I gradually pick up the pace of walking. Also, the route I walk is not not level i.e. there are some slopes and stairs (short ones though). Hence by the time I'm back at home to do the remaining exercise, my body is defnitely warmed up.

The strengthening exercise I do includes, among others, bicep curl and plank.

Yes, I need to take great care not to further damage my knees as I was diagnosed having osteoatritis in my knees.

It is important not to only concentrate on total chol. but to pay attention to your good chol (HDL) as well. If the ratio of total chol to HDL is low, then you are not at risk for heart disease. sr

The first comment made by Paul contained the hyperlink ("home exercises") to a webpage ( http://lsminsurance.ca/life-insurance-canada/2012/03/how-to-exercise-at-home) of which the owner had requested to remove due to her belief that this was what causing links penalty from Google. Hence, I've copied the original comment to here:

" Walking is a good exercise but I am afraid that twenty minutes isn't not enough, because during this time your body does not even warm up. It would be great to find some stairs and walk them up. This is one of the best home exercises and also it is a great cardio exercise. But be careful when you will walk down the stairs, because this can be very hurtful and damaging to the knees! "

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

-
Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 2)

-
(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba

Sudden lower body pain

-
About two weeks ago, my mum developed pain in her pelvic bone, much more on the right side, and squeezing pain in her legs, with occassional spike in pain. She was managing it with paracetamols, 2 tabs three times daily.  Since we didn't know any particular orthopedist in private hospitals (it was only recently that I remember Dr Prashant ), I targeted one at KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital since it's in mainland Penang (instead of on the island). I made appointment for my mum with Dr Joehaimey since he has the earliest suitable date. The moment she walked through his door, he immediately asked her whether the pain from her right side. We were both quite impressed. He was in turn impressed with mum's prepared list of medication that she presented to him on a piece of paper. The key information seems to be the surgery she had back in 2011 to insert titanium plate and screws in her lower spine. He guessed that there's accumalated wear and tear due to aging. So to confirm i
