3 MONTHS TO END THE YEAR WITH A BANG!!!

In just 3 months, we shall bid farewell to 2013 and the new year began. Have we accomplished our target for 2013? In my world, I know a few people who did with flying colours!!

For one, 2013 gave birth to a few Ultra-marathoners!! Ultra marathoners are defined by those who ran or walk further than the traditional full marathon distance of 42.195km (see wiki). This year, four from the Chief's Original Bootcamp Malaysia fraternity, ran and completed an ultramarathon. They were Nawal Aini Zulkifli aka Staff Sarge (COBC) Nawal, Chee Yee Law (Bandar Utama Alpha), Muzzafar Bahir (Damansara Heights Zulu) and Shazny Az (Damansara Heights Zulu). Surprisingly, the Ultramarathon run was Chee Yee's and Muzzafar's maiden long distance run. The longest they both have ran before was only 21km. Chun Chia Kai aka Sarge (COBC) Chun completed his longest 100km ultra marathon. They all did it at the Singapore Sundown Ultramarathon.

MATRIX TO THE MAX- WOD DAY 7

Recruits at the Chief's Original Bootcamp, Malaysia (COBC) spend the public holiday in conjunction with Malaysia Day today with a Matrix to the Max workout. Today is the 7th session, September intake and the program focuses on metabolic conditioning, muscular endurance and cardio. Yes, instructors at COBC works on Malaysia Day, public holiday and even on weekend whenever there is a scheduled workout session in rain, hail or shine... except when there is lightning. Yes also, the focus and intensity of a workout program for each session differs.

Today also marked the 16th day of the 8 Weeks to Wow (8W2W) challenge and if you have done any one of the past 4 challenges, you would have noticed the changes in the inferno program especially in the list of food allowed. The program at COBC whether the monthly (Military Corp, Spec Ops) or half annually (8W2W formerly known as 8 Weeks Challenge or 8WC) or the annual program (the Longest Day, Hell Week etc) continuously evolve. While we are working out, Chief Brabon, Gunny Hames and a whole team of experts in Australia continuously research, develop and seek to improve our program to make sure everyone's target and aim is achieved and optimized. The energy and spirit of each and every recruit that made up the platoon will make sure we are always motivated and would not go off-track. The instructors in Red, as you would know by now, accept nothing less than 100% and above of effort in every session.

This combination- the evolving program, the food, the continuous injection or rather, scream of motivation (by recruits like Megan Lok, Harun, Janis and Poh Ow Ee today), the consistency (adopted with the ACE) and the 110% effort reached out by the instructors is what COBC is all about and felt under the command of platoon commander Corporal (COBC) Amir and assisted by Corporal Jake, the Bandar Utama Alpha (BUA) platoon today.

6D MOTION ADVENTURE, CP ARCADE @ IKANO POWER CENTRE

Have you heard of the 6D motion adventure? I first learn of the 6D motion adventure at the Ikano Power Centre today on Merdeka day 31st August 2013 when my son Aaraf Eid Pahamin and his cousin Andika Rees Pahamin eagerly and excitedly asked me to bring them to the CP Arcade located on 2nd Floor, IPC Shopping Centre, Mutiara Damansara.

Anyone whom have not been to the 6D motion adventure should at least experience it once and once they tried the 6D adventure, they will keep coming back for more. Well at least it is true for kids. Which kid would not be excited to watch a 6D motion adventure? The same with Aaraf and Rees. Though this 6D adventure was new to me but Aaraf and Rees has been there twice before this with his mother Nawal Aini and Rees' dad Azhar Sulaiman.

I brought them both to the CP Arcade at 2pm after a good lunch at the Absolut Thai restaurant, bought them their ticket which cost RM12 per person (for a supposedly 10 minutes show) and left them there to choose the adventure of their choice since they both seemed to know exactly what they wanted to watch. I went window shopping while waiting for them. A moment later, Aaraf called and said they have finished the show and we gathered.

From the earlier enthusiasm, I was surprised to see them both less excited. Puzzled, I asked how was the exciting 6D adventure and they replied, it was boring because they have already seen it. Confused, I questioned them both again why they had picked a show that they have already watched. Aaraf said, he wanted to watch the "Deep Ocean" but the Officer at the entrance insisted for them both to watch the Roller Coaster.

TIME FOR A RE-BRANDING AND LAUNCHED A NEW YOU IN 8 WEEKS

Feast without guilt during this Hari Daya Aidil Fitri and rebrand yourself with a new physique in just 8 weeks. 

It is not a rumor but a fact that the Australia's most talked about transformation program to unleashed your body's best potential in just 8 weeks is back in Malaysia next month in September 2013!! The 8 Week Challenge (8WC) was first introduced in Malaysia in September 2010 and this Summer 8WC will be our 5th Challenge.

A little background of the challenge.

The program was initially created by Chief Babon and Gunny Hames when they were hired to turn 13 fit, yet undefined individuals into lycra clad, god like warriors... in only 6 weeks for the incarnation of the hit television series GLADIATORS (as seen on NTV7 & ASTRO in Malaysia). The success of the program had sparked alot of interest to other parties but Chief exclusively provide them only through the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP, Australia (OBC) and CHIEF'S ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP (COBC), Malaysia.

The program which is expected to cost only AUD 40 or approximately RM120 depending on the currency conversion at the point of payment, will comprised of an Inferno Home Workout program for 8 weeks (yes there is homework to do at home) which should be the additional workout to the 3 times a week training at COBC and a dietary menu of what to eat daily for the next 8 weeks.

Details on how to register will be provided later.

The objective was clear; Strip away any excess fat, while increasing the athlete's strength, speed, endurance, and most importantly (as lycra is a little forgiving) great muscle tone.

The men were to look powerful, and awe inspiring, while the women were to be that rare balance of feminine and athletic. This was evidence from the past result that can be seen in this blog by searching for 8 WC.

For more details, Stay tuned!

A ROSE AMONG THE THORNS, STAFF SERGEANT NAWAL AINI

She first attended the program as a recruit 4 years ago for 12 months in 2009 and began mentoring with the founders of the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP program, Chief Brabon and Gunny Hames in 2010 as a Lance Corporal after graduating from the Military Fitness Specialist level 1 Certification. In 2011, she was promoted to a Corporal upon obtaining her Sports Science Level 1 certificate from the National Sports Council. In 2012, she was promoted to a Sergeant and became the platoon commander for five platoons in 2013.

At the recent 2013 ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP Asia-Pacific Conference in Sydney, she was promoted by Chief & Gunny as the first Malaysian Instructor to be accredited and certified by the networks five Master Trainers and promoted to the rank of Staff Sergeant which is a ranking equivalent to a senior instructor in a fitness industry. She was also named the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP International "2013 Lead Instructor of the Year” " based upon her professionalism, leadership (of both Recruits and Support Instructors) and adherence to the networks core values. She became the first Malaysian to be invited to conduct a session alongside Chief and Gunny, the founders of the 23 years old Military Inspired Bootcamp at the OBC Flagship Coogee Beach platoon in Australia.

If you hadn’t already guessed, ‘she’ is Nawal Aini Zulkifli and has joined the likes of Gunny herself as a leading female Instructor in the male dominated genre of Military inspired fitness training.  When Nawal first decided to be a Bootcamp instructor, many had their reservations. Being the only woman in a team of men, she realised that she would need to prove her value as an Instructor by being stronger and more disciplined then many of her peers. 

MORNING VERSUS EVENING WORKOUT

Do we workout in the morning or evening to burn more fat is one of the most frequently asked question. It is good if you do have the luxury of time to choose but if you do not, then working out at any time of the day is a luxury that we all must target to achieve.

The flow of energy in our biological system implied no correlation on the time of the day whether morning or evening that determines how much and how fast we burn those unwanted fat but it is the level of intensity and the duration of our exercise that determines the speed and the amount of fat we burn to perform a given task. The exercise program is the key to either fat lost, athletic performance and/or improved health.

The exercise program determines the conversion of macro-nutrients: carbohydrates, proteins and fats, into usable energy. This flow of energy from carbohydrate, protein or fat will determine our ability or capacity to perform a given exercise program to optimize performance or fat burning phase. This is termed as Bioenergetics that refers to the breakdown of chemical bonds in this macro-nutrients (carbo, protein and fat) to provide the energy necessary to perform biological work (such as an exercise program).

IGNORANCE WAS A BLISS

4 years ago, Anushia Siva Subramaniam introduced me to this military-inspired, group, outdoor personal training program in Padang Merbuk. Unbeknown of what it was, Anushia's introductory line was as simple as... "You don't asked so much, You don't think too much, you go and enroll online and just surrender yourself for just 1 hour, 3 times a week for 4 consecutive weeks!!" Then you will know what the bootcamp training is all about". My enthusiasm and deep passion to be healthy and fit got the better of me and I immediately enrolled and fell in love with everything about bootcamp akin of a love at first sight. I was obsessed with its training program. I do not know what got into me but I found some hidden massive energy that made me craved for more and more even now 4 years later.

I did not understand the how(s) and why(s) but what matters, whatever the program was, it worked!!

That sentence then became the tagline of COBC bootcamp workout testimonies year after year... "Just surrender yourself for 1 hour, 3 times a week for 4 consecutive weeks and you will be amazed to see the result". Most recruits stayed on with the program for years to come.

Like most of us, I was not bothered to know the science behind the Bootcamp program but the newly found strength, stamina and especially the leaner-meaner me was enough for me to keep wanting and coming for more.... month after month, year after year. Now, I took a step further to understand the whole science with what is happening inside and within our body. To satisfy this curious mind, I enrolled together with a platoon of Reds to study at the Fitness Innovation Malaysia (FIT) and a mile into the journey of learning, I was lost in a jungle full of jargons but quickly adapt to be able to relate what I learn with all readers.

WHEN MY PARTNER TURNS 60 YEARS OLD!!

Dr Malek Aziz, a Co-Licensee at the Chief's Original Bootcamp (COBC) Malaysia turned 60 years old today on 14 June 2013. Dr Malek Aziz does not need any introduction to those within the bootcamp fraternity. The still-practicing dentist has been working out with the COBC program consistently for 4 years now and is still very hyper-active and would easily overtake, in speed and exercise form any younger recruits half his age when they all trained together.We would end up being call the Pakcik instead of him.

The Delta and a father of 5 great children has nothing but humility and humour when he socializes
with anyone from any age group and/or from any race and status. He can even become the 10 years old, Aaraf's best friend. Dr Malek is not only humble and funny but he is also a great listener. If anyone ever need a friend to talk, a shoulder to cry on or even a friend to rely and trust, he will always be there.

Dr Malek, like me.. survived terminal cancer and we workout primarily to maintain our health. Although we are both business men but at COBC, it was never about business and making money but its all about rejoicing a community that share similar passion for health and fitness.

STARVING FOR KNOWLEDGE

What happen when graduates and yuppies from various fields that ranges from Engineers, Auditors, Economics to Fine Arts and Hotel Management became an instructor having shared the same passion & vision? Whom then passionately delivers the 24 years old military-inspired program to train and transformed thousands of civilians in unleashing their best health, physique and fitness potential?

Yes.. first, they learn from the founder of the world oldest running military-inspired program Chief Brabon, to obtained the Military Fitness specialist level 1 Certificate, attended various short courses and being hungry or more like starving for more knowledge, they all registered and gathered every weekend for a scheduled training at the Fitness Innovations (M) Sdn Bhd (Commercially known as FIT), a member of Fitness Innovations (Thailand, India, Indonesia and Singapore) read more about FIT at HERE. After almost a year of talking and discussing, COBC finally collaborated with FIT to feed our every instructor's hunger for more knowledge.

There is one common trait that is shared by all trainers at the Chief's Original Bootcamp (COBC), they are all University graduates from various fields (including but not limited to Sports Science and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (cscs)). They were all once a recruit (at COBC) and an avid athlete but not necessarily born an athlete (for more information of COBC instructor, read HERE which is still being updated). This combination of mix background is important to understand the needs and fancies of COBC's recruits. No one can understand the pain of 'commoners' (which we refers to those couch potatoes whom had never, rarely or seldom exercise) better than those instructors whom can relate to the pain or the transformation process of getting fit and healthy (first hand experience from ground zero to their best potential).

Most professional athletes are born an athlete, polished and train to be the best but they do not undergo the same processes or pain of those commoners  to be able to experience and relate themselves of the 'transformation agony' having being born with the stamina and physically fit gene, except of course.. in theory.

The first class that we had yesterday was fun, havoc and very hyper-active mimicking the scenario while training especially when the Reds are now akin of a recruit.. a student starving for knowledge, progress and improvement. They are all salivating impatiently to learn and absorb the knowledge in class and improve themselves. We met the tall, huge (with his arm bigger than my thigh) friendly and funny, the first lecturer, Jerrican Tan whom is also the man responsible for the birth of Malaysia's first international standard educational fitness centre, the FIT.

PROTON NETWORK CONVENTION 2013/14

Left: Liew Vee Lee, Lee Lik Sai, Taha, Rashid Musa, Armin Baniaz Pahamin, Hisham Othman, Datuk Yahya Jaafar, Siaw Siew Bee, Jeff Lim, Dato Isa Indot

7 June 2013, Istana Hotel Kuala Lumpur. Except for 3 dealers, PROTON Network which comprised of all authorized Sales dealers, After-Sales dealers, branch showroom, branch service centres, management and senior management of Proton Edar and Proton Holdings Berhad gathered for the first time at the Hotel Istana in Kuala Lumpur since DRB-Hicom took over from Khazanah Nasional. The gathering was graced by Yg Bhg Tan Sri Mohd Khamil bin Jamil himself as the Executive Chairman of Proton Holdings Berhad accompanied by Datuk Lokman, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Proton Holdings Berhad, Hisham Othman, Chief Executive Officer Proton Edar Sdn Bhd as well as other senior Management.This was my 4th Convention that I attended as the President for Proton Edar Dealers Association Malaysia.

The session that saw almost a 100% attendance with only 2 days notice given, began as early as 8am and was a much needed gathering given the disappointing overall sales in May. When the network expected Tan Sri Khamil to throw some if not many punches for the dismay sales, he remained calm and cool and seemed to understand the predicament we faced. In fact, he addresses various critical issues that is pertinent to the survivability of the network.
