The Primed Lifestyle involves quite a few dishes using coconut milk, flour and oil. The best quality and least expensive way to get the coconut milk and flour is by yourself. It is easy, inexpensive and good exercise! Here’s how:

How can you teach your children well without providing them proper nutrition? The short answer is that you cannot. Proper, optimal nutrition is the building block from which they then can then sleep, recover and function well in body and mind on a daily basis. Listen to this great song called Teach Your Children by Crosby Stills and Nash.
Here are some additional Primed Lunch Box items for you to feed your children (and yourself) from our last Lunch Box post that proved to be very popular.

Welcome to The Wholesome Table, possibly the busiest restaurant in the Fort Bonifacio area. I have been fortunate enough to dine there 5 times in the last 3 weeks and each and every time has seen the place packed. Amazingly, even at 1:30 pm on a Thursday the owner Bianca Elizalde and I only just got a table!
Being busy is one thing, serving great food is another. I have yet to be any thing but delighted with my high quality food from The Wholesome Table and it is going to get even better with Bianca and Chef Jay letting me know that there will be more Primed items on their soon to be new menu. That’s cool.
Here is a review across my 5 dining experiences where my Sante Barley teammates Joey Marcelo and Jonah Rivera loved it. My new Primed clients in Marc Daubenbuechel and Andy Pope loved it. My triathlete pals in Berns Tan, Candy Dizon, Dennis Go, Dennis Gan, Hazel Benipay and Majul Maccay also loved it.
That’s 10 out of 10. So, why 10/10? Great food, drinks, ambiance and service.

The triathlon season is upon us and I have already seen people cheating (swimming inside the designated swimming ropes) and throwing their rubbish in a protected forest! Have you seen any one cheating yet? How can we stop them?
I am re-posting our most popular article ever in the hope race directors, coaches, triathlon teams and everyone involved in our sport act within the spirit of good competition. Know the rules and act accordingly within the spirit of fair competition.
I love competing at triathlon and running events. It is cool to test yourself against your previous years results and against your competitors in your age category.
The reason to SIGN UP
for races vary from individual but include:
– Getting a nice medal; getting the nice finisher’s shirt; having fun; getting fitter; beating your friends and rivals to the finish line; being part of your triathlon team; having something fun to post on facebook; setting a positive example to your fiends; and for the love of exercising in the sun.
There are some people who want to do well so badly that they are prepared to go outside of the rules to get onto the podium or even to just get a personal best.
Going outside the rules means cheating and should not be tolerated in our fun sport. We need more vigilance on behalf of the competitors, spectators and race organizers.
“The truly scary thing about undiscovered lies is that they have a greater capacity to diminish us than exposed ones. They erode our strength, our self-esteem, our very foundation.” ― Cheryl Hughes

Challenge Philippines was never really on my radar of races to do because the bike is super tough and I am not a good biker. Makes sense in terms of doing races that suit your strengths but I now do races simply for fun and to challenge myself.
I first heard about the Challenge races by listening to the famous triathlete Sister Madonna. She said she loves the atmosphere of the Challenge races which convinced me to give Challenge Philippines at Subic Bay on February 22nd a try. I am so glad I listened to you Sister Madonna as I loved it.
Sister Madonna Buder, a nun from Spokane/Washington, US, 83 years “young”, was the oldest participant in DATEV Challenge Roth, June 2014. Article from here. What do you want to do at 80? I will still be doing triathlons with my wife.

A lot of people have type-2 diabetes or have been diagnosed as pre-diabetic. An inordinate number of people in the US, Australia, India, China, the Philippines and many other countries have this terrible condition and that number will increase drastically over the next decade. The condition is not passed on through genetics but is because of the way people eat and sleep.
Most current, conventional treatment involves Low Fat, High Carb recommendations PLUS drugs and more exercise. Just one question. How’s that working out for us?
Here is how the current treatment is working in Australia:Within 5 years diabetes will be the biggest cause of death and illness in Australia.
