Why Post-Workout Nutrition Is Important

I have always emphasize taking protein post-workout. And I usually recommend whey protein as it is one of the fastest absorbed and gentle on the stomach. Why the importance? See, protein is like food for your muscle. When you work out, your muscles need food for growth and recovery (protein synthesis) And why must you keep your body in a positive protein balance? Because if you don't, your body will break your muscles down  for protein (catabolic process) that results in muscle loss. The goals of post-workout nutrition is to minimize post-workout muscle breakdown, and stimulating protein synthesis.  These two effects result in greater total muscle growth. Taking protein after workout stimulates muscle protein synthesis, which halts muscle breakdown and initiates muscle growth.  Here's the trick, you must consume your post workout protein within 1-2 hours after your workout.  How much should you take? A commonly cited study showed...

Kasih Sayang Adalah Seekor Ikan Goreng

I've noticed lately I've not been posting factual entries. Factual entries need more time because I'll need to read up and gather info before I can really write about it. Other wise I'll be conveying half truths.  I don't have the luxury of sitting whole day in front of the PC gathering info, reading articles like I used to.  I'm sorry my blog at the moment is full of crappy stories of my misadventures. Which I hope is entertaining enough. These past few days, work drained me sooo much. In this week alone, 2 customers argued with me over free gifts, among other things. You cannot believe how rude people are nowadays. Malaysian customers are soooo cheapskate and they will haggle with you for free gifts.  Please understand that I'm bound to company's policy. I can't simply give you things for free sebab ini BUKAN COMPANY BAPAK SAYA.  Itu belum bukak cerita pasal customers yang argue pasal diskaun and promotion. Sekali lagi Cik Panda nak ca...

Cik Panda Dibelakang Ice Box

After the first date HERE , we met a few days later at a mamak shop after I'm done with gym and he's done with futsal. As usual, we were laughing and talking. Teasing and flirting is a must when suddenly he said "You know, you are laughing and joking but deep down I can feel that you are actually sad. Like you are hiding something." "What makes you say that?" "I don't know. It's just that I can feel this vibe from you. I can see it in your eyes that you are sad. You can tell me you know." Speechless sekejap Cik Panda. I don't know what to say because I don't actually know what makes me sad. It's combination of a lot of things and happenings for the past few months or even years.  Then he asked me "What actually do you want?" How do I tell him that I'm scared that he will turn out to be like most of the guys I've met, a JERK? You think you found someone you connected with then suddenly they go M...

Cik Panda The Love Doctor

Cik Panda, as mak ayam (GOAL) Gituuuuu kan. Tajuk mau meletup kebabom.  When I posted THIS , my friends go crazyyyyyy. In fact they are more excited than I am. Maybe they think I found the one? But calm down, he is not my boyfriend and I'm not getting married anytime soon.  They don't call me mak ayam for nothing. There is this one book I highly recommend for ladies who wanted tips on relationships. It does not teach you to be a mean bitch but it teaches you how not to lose yourself in relationships. Because in any relationship, the most important person is yourself and the most important relationship you'll ever have is with yourself. Click this LINK for snippets of the book. And THIS for general pot pet pot pet. I dated a lot of guys. A LOT. Cik Meow and Cik Pah couldn't keep track of who and who anymore.  "Ishhh cicak mana pulak ni? Kuda mana pulak ni? si anu mana pulak ni? si polan mana pulak ni. Pening lah!" Unlike most ladies, I don...

The Best Kind Of Date

After our first date in the gym (Read about it HERE ), D and I arranged for a movie date on Sunday, after I'm done with work.  As per requested/standard of procedure for any guys I'm going out with, Cik Meow and Cik Pah has to give their stamp of approval.  So I asked D to come over and meet me at my work place. He came, I introduced him to my bodyguards. I leave him chatting with them for a bit while I go check on my car.  Cik Meow, Cik Pah and another colleague gave their approval as he's easy to get along with, friendly and not snobbish.  Later he asked me "Kenapa you mintak I datang outlet you?" Cik Panda terpaksa mencari alasan "Saje laa. Sebab barang2 I semua kat situ. I malas nak mengangkut barang banyak2." Padahal bodyguard nak buat assessment. We went for dinner. There is this one thing about me on how I read people's body language and their action.  When sitting at the table, guys who choose to sit nex...

Gym Is My Boyfriend

So the other day my partner in crime tag me in a photo that she says reminds her of me. It described me to a T. Gym is not my new boyfriend. It always has been my boyfriend.   Unlike most guys that I met, the gym does not give empty promises, does not disappoint, never demands, always leaves you satisfied, made me feel beautiful and sexy, made me a better person physically, mentally, and emotionally.  And never try to get into my panties. I'm such a gym junkie that most of the time, I schedule my social life, even dating around my fitness classes.  I clicked with a guy on Tinder. Despite the fact that he's obviously just wanted to get into my pants, we got on really well pretty fast and he really wanted to see me. My typical response to anyone who wanted a slice of my time would be  "I'll only be free on Monday and Thursday evenings. Other days I'll be working and gyming. If you really want to see me, it's either after gym or you come to my workp...

Kalau tertarik dengan rupa fizikal Cik Panda baik tak payah. Rupa fizikal boleh berubah, esok-esok kalau Cik Panda dah tak gojes mojes mau lagi ke orang tu dengan Cik Panda? Sedangkan pantai pun berubah, inikan pula hati manusia.  Gituuuuu. Cik Bear, kawan kepada Cik Meow cakap "Cik Panda tu memang lah cantik, ada body semua tapi tu lah semua lelaki nak kat dia sebab body dia. ha tu lah buat badan lagi."

Clingy Seekor Cicak Yang Annoying

Jika anda tidak tahu siapa itu Clingy, sila baca post INI dahulu. Kadang-kadang orang cakap dengan Cik Panda, "Ala kalau annoying sangat then you tak payah layan lah dia tu." Tapi Cik Panda layankan jugak sebab bosan, ego boost gitu kan. Tapi Cik Panda bukan playgirl. Gituuuu. Cik Panda tak bagi orang harapan palsu ye uols.  Clingy si cicak text me almost everyday and if I allow it, he called me every night. So last few days, he called and asked what was my first impression of him. Wahhhh Cik Panda apa lagi, bagi dia bertepek-tepek. "Daripada cara you, betul tak kalau I cakap you kurang keyakinan diri?" "A'ah. I memang kurang keyakinan diri. Macam mana you tau?" "Emm..Okay, first thing first, bila you datang, kawan I ada kat situ kan. Tak salah kan kalau you tegur kawan I? Kalau tak salam pun, you acknowledge dia atau senyum je." "I memang pemalu sikit kalau jumpa orang first time." "tapi kalau senyum je...
