wth? hospital got good food ah ahah..
me eh? i start officially on mid 2007. before that i was in SP dragonboat team for year.
weight fluctuate alot ah. before i went into dragobboat i was 90kg. after all the cardios and stuffs for 1 year i slimmed down to 80kg.
then i decided to quit cos too many politics and started my own weight training which consist of only 3 big lifts... and after some time i gained to 82kg.
slowly, i added some 3-4 small lifts to my training regime and my weight went up to 85kg.
after some time,i heard about V diet which everyone was talking about in sgforums so i tried it. damn witin 10 days i shrink back to 79kg and it doesnt feel good. it was then i i realised that i did v.diet wrongly and decided to eat normally.
and slowly my weight goes back to 83 with normal diet and to 85 with anabolic diet.
one day, i was so interested in strongman because i saw a guy( KC) who is around my age in teamironbehemoth can DL more than me and his weight and size is smaller than me. also, 100+kg kieth was there.. i often heard him but nv talked to him
soon, i join them and my weight increased to 87kg.
and now i'm preparing for NS so i decided to slim down a little with proper V.diet plan. my weight now is 84kg..


and oh, forget about the age.. now i'm 20 years and 9 months old.i started 18 years 11monthsold
