Thin, Fit or Fat ????

Am I fit? Kehkehkeh…just asks to myself..do not want any answer..hmm..actually someone said to me..’Shaymak, makin naik la skunk’ haha..really? huaaaaaa.. I don’t know. Whatever. The fact is we have to keep fit and not to become thinner and skinny..Agree me? So, in this post I would like to point out some opinions about keeping fit.

A person who is fit is one who can perform ordinary physical task. They will not easily getting ill compared to those who are unfit. This is because fit person’s body has more resistance to illness. But, if they get some illness the rate for them to recover is usually faster.

Who want to become fit? Keep going in this track! Huhu.. The simplest way of keeping fit is by exercising regularly. I mean vigorous exercise. Vigorous exercise keeps our muscle strong. Other than that, we’ll become active and energetic. The most common exercise are jogging, swimming, football, badminton, squash, tennis,
and other games that require a lot of movement. Whatever they are, such activities will give our body a good work out, make us sweat, and keep our muscles, bones and organs in good working order. However, we have to be careful not to over exercise until we collapse from fatigue.

Ermm..actually..Exercise alone is not enough to become fit. The food and drinks that we take are also important. It is no use if we exercise diligently while at the same time we take a lot of junk foods. Fatty acids and alcohol are two things that we have to be very careful. Just want to warn my friends that take it ya!! Alcoholic drinks can lead to dehydration. Fatty foods can make us fat, unhealthy and brings to other disease complication.

I would also say that we should have sufficient rest and sleep because it is vital for fitness. All of us already know how weak we are if we do not have enough sleep. So, it is a good idea to go to bed early each night around 10 to 11 p.m. in order to get a good night’s sleep. Then wake up fresh on the next morning around 3 to 4 a.m. Wake up fresh on the next day is one thing that we delight for, is it? Ustazah Rokiah (lecturer of introduction to Islam and medicine) told us about sleep and hormone cortisol (hormone involved in immune system). As cortisol levels rise, we are given the energy to begin our day. The time for the cortisol to rise is from 3 to 11 a.m. So, I think we should follow her very best suggestion and I am now trying to get into it. Hope so.. Ermm..ok, as a conclusion..We should try to become fit and not trying to become slim in a wrong way. Get it? hmm..up to you whether to follow it or not. Huhu..
