So, Bingers. Seven months in into the quarantine and I am so sure you too are missing the gym. I really do! I even talked about it before. If you are like me who has also started setting up a gym at home, then good for us, gym rats! You know what they say, #FitnessGoals. But as I have also mentioned, looking good is part workout and part diet. So, with every workout, a good post-workout meal is important. Now, let me share with you some easy yet really yummy post-workout sandwich recipes.

The Thing About Keto and Why I Stopped It

Dale Palisoc August 19, 2020

Reading Time: 3 minutesWe all want to lose weight for different reasons for our health, to achieve the norms of the society, or to feel better. Personally, I lost weight for both health purposes and to feel good about myself. Growing up, I was a fat kid. My heaviest was at over 100 kg! As a fat kid, I was teased, bullied, and skipped on opportunities. It helped that I had the brains and I was always on top of class but other than that, being fat was bad for me overall. So, when I reached the age of 20, I became more self-conscious thus the drive to lose weight. In doing so, I tried different approaches: working out, health supplements, keto diet, and now Intermittent Fasting. Let’s talk about the keto diet. When I did it in 2017-2018, I saw RESULTS! But I stopped after almost a year despite being satisfied with it and here are why:

Gym During The Pandemic? | The Little Binger

Should I Return To The Gym During the Pandemic?

Dale Palisoc August 2, 2020

Reading Time: 3 minutesHow is the pandemic treating you, Bingers? Are you still doing good? Still sane? I really do hope that you are still doing fine because I am, despite the INTENSE boredom and lockdown fever that hit me few weeks after the lockdown has started. In addressing it, I have done several activities to curb my attention: cooking, vlogging, gardening, and working out. And yes, let’s talk about the latter- working out. For regular gym-goers like I am, hitting the gym was a regular activity when our lives were still in normal, pre-COVID. But by the second week of March 2020, when the government-imposed lockdown happened nationwide, our gym-going routine was put on a halt. Our gains were lost, and weights increased. Well, for some because lucky me, I learned to love home workouts and I invested on my home gym setup. Recently, however, the government has announced that they will be lifting restrictions and gyms will be reopened soon. So, I asked myself, “should I return to the gym during the pandemic?”

Top Sites And Apps To Keep Your #FitnessGoals with Home Workouts

Dale Palisoc May 20, 2020

Reading Time: 3 minutesHi there, Bingers! So it’s been almost 3 months since we got on lockdown due to COVID-19. Since then, we spent every single day at home because we are restricted and it is not safe. In fact, I already finished lots of TV shows and movies on Netflix! I have done a rewatch of my favorite series and even tried new ones such as Thai BL and K-Dramas. But you know what it is not healthy to stay stagnant. We still have to keep on moving. The big question, however, is how to do it? Especially now that gyms are closed and it is terrifying to jog outside (not to mention the summer heat!). Lucky for us, I found some apps and YouTube channels that help me stay on track with my fitness goals. Bingers, check out these sites and apps for your home workout! And yes, if you also don’t have equipment at home, there’s no need to worry!

So, Bingers. I feel like this is the nth time I’m going to tell you how much I love shopping. But as we all know, this season is not the great time to hit the mall because of the crowd! Department stores are packed and the queues for the counter get really long! I simply don’t have the patience for that. This is why I got my holiday gifts for my friends and family from online shops. They are addicting, true, but they sometimes don’t have the things I need unlike in actual department stores. The good thing is our go-to department store, The SM Store is now online via ShopSM! I tried the newly-up online store and here is my experience.
