Who's The Hottest?
Emilio Legaria Sim, @emiliolegaria

Programme creator and manager at TRIBE Boxing Studio

How did you get into fitness? “Whether it was running track and field, football or basketball, I was already involved in fitness ever since I could walk! Fitness has been a part of my life since then.” Favourite workout move? “Tough one. But it has to be the good, old push-up.” Go-to breakfast? “Toast with peanut butter (loaded to the brim!), Manuka honey, chia seeds, cinnamon powder, cacao nibs, and some Creatine sprinkled on top. It keeps me going all morning!” When are you the happiest? “When I’m exercising, or listening to music. That’s why I love doing both at once. And the occasional beer definitely has its spot up there, too.” How do you unwind? “I enjoy having my downtime at home with Netflix with a beer in-hand. A good book comes close.” Favourite cheat food? “Any kind of burger really! Double juicy patties, loaded with cheese, drenched in sauce, with a side of fries. My mouth is already watering just speaking of it.” Three things you can’t live without:? “Family and friends, exercising and music.” What’s in your current workout playlist? “My playlist is always super diverse. But you can be damn sure that there will always be HipHop and Hardstyle!”

8 Reasons Why Women Should Lift Weights!

Don’t worry about getting bulky. According to the Women’s Heart Foundation, high levels of estrogen make it very difficult for women to become overly muscular. When women lift, the changes to their muscles are generally related to muscle-tone, strength, and endurance rather than size. The result is just a firmer and shapely you. Here are more reasons why you should pick up those weights today.
