Yeap. shadowz is spot on.

+ 1 to the diet. I used to say to some people, you don't need to exercise at all to look fit. Just tweak your diet. Technically that's true, but on hindsight, considering the health implications that was a very bad statement lol.

And for the bf% estimate all the tools you'd need is a 50sen measurement tape, and a weighing scale. And of course a reference table of figures (I've posted this somewhere edit: refer below). That already brings it up to at least 85% accuracy.

In fact there's no need to calculate bf%, unless it's for calculating calorie requirements. "Eyeballing" it as shadowz would put it, is sufficient.

Hi guys,
need some input.
I'm 177cm tall and weigh around 82KG.
I've went to the hotel gym when i was travelling last time.
but very hard for me to get a good body shape because of nature of my work and my eating habits.
What are the best best way to get in shape if you frequently travel? as muslim what type of food to eat if there's no easy halal food to find?
thanks~

Is it that hard to find mixed-veg, steamed fish, grilled chicken, and beef steaks?

20 minutes of intense bodyweight exercises every alternate day in your room before shower?

It's all psychological.

grilled chicken and beef steak is quite hard to find. i remember i didn't  eat chicken for 2-3 weeks at one time when i was in philippines.

bodyweight exercises using equipment? can suggest any equipment that's easy to carry for travel ? i was thinking resistance band right now.

Philippines? Avocado juices! Without the sugar & sweet milk though. Take it plain, ice blended with a lil evap milk. Great for fat loss.

Have more fish, vegetables, and legumes then if it's hard to find chicken and beef. Best foods around.

As for bodyweight exercises I was referring to these, though resistance bands are great too. Search for a good routine online.

Gee, no thanks? Show some gratitude by bringing back a carton of avocados next time. tongue.gif

They should be much cheaper compared to Australian ones that're being sold here.
