How do you keep healthy?

?

Well truthfully, I’d been pretty reckless with?my health up until the age of 25. And that’s when I realized my terrible habits had taken a toll on?my body. So now I make sure to eat healthy, which means?good protein, healthy fats?and plenty of fibre. I’m also considering taking some supplements, but I haven’t done enough research yet. Drink-wise, I quit sugary drinks?and stick to?water only. Aside from that, I steer clear of alcohol and cigarettes.

What is your favorite sport?

?

I must admit I’ve never been?a sporty person. I hate getting sweaty. But if I had to pick one, I’d say jogging, since it’s not as intense?as other forms of cardio or weights. And after a while I could get that?runner’s high. It’s a great stress-buster. After a rough day, I find it pretty cathartic to?run for a good hour, that is, when I could?get off my backside?to actually do it.

Are there health classes in your school?

?

Not that I can remember. I mean, if there was, I must have slept through?the whole thing, since the subject doesn’t sound like something I’d particularly enjoy back then.?But then again, I probably should have?paid attention, considering my poor health habits over the years. But?people are becoming more health-conscious?than ever, so I’m pretty sure schools nowadays have started more interesting and informative?health courses.

Is it easy for people to exercise in your country?

?

Definitely. It’s pretty common for?young people to hit the gym?after work. Public amenities?also allow older people to exercise. Take the city I live in. Recent years, new mini parks have been scattered across?the city, where there’s?easy access to?a variety of?outdoor fitness equipment. So I think it’s definitely a welcome change and it encouraged?indoorsy types?like myself to go out more.?
