Fact or Fiction: Can You Lose Weight Without Exercise (or Dieting)?
This is one of the most common questions I receive on my blog. “Hi Ms Kaycee! Is it possible to lose weight without exercise or diet?”. WHAT. Did someone just ask me if pigs can fly or if the Philippines can finally see progress within the next 3 years? I don’t think so. We can look at it this way. Weight loss = Calories In – Calories Out. Meaning you shed the pounds if the result is negative. I DON’T BELIEVE IN EXTREME CALORIE RESTRICTION for losing weight. Especially those 1,200 calorie diet fads ugh gross. Before we go through and answer the question by means of science and research. Here are a few posts…

[FITNESS] Will Lifting Weights Make Me Look Like a Man?
Can you see even the slightest testosterone-filled muscles in my body? It’s still the same petite frame I was born with, except stronger and leaner. A common misconception with women, and the reason why they avoid lifting heavy weights is that you might be afraid of looking like a man. But the answer is NO. Lifting heavy weights such as barbells, or pulling your own body weight via dips or pull-ups won’t make you look like a man. Want to know why? Because women does not produce the amount of testosterone men does. And that’s actually one of the factors they get BIGGER and STRONGER. Us? Sure, we’d gain muscles, we’d have those…
Eclipse 24/7 Gym: What are Your Goals?
What’s a review on a gym without updates on our progress right? Well before I present you my progress for month 1, here are pictures of some clients who have been working out in Eclipse 24/7 for more than a year. Remember, slow and steady is key, instant results are not always the best results. So when working out, we shouldn’t rush ourselves too much because hey, Rome wasn’t built in a day. But when built, and build the right way it can withstand time. Naks. I learned from my good coach that whenever you step into training, or to workout. First thing you ask yourself is “What are my goals?” because if…
On Going Paleo in Manila and Lifting Heavy at Eclipse 24/7
10 years ago, I went to a series of sessions with a really good chiropractor at UN Avenue. I had a bad case of back pain and I went to his clinic to get relief. On our first checkup. He performed the usual snap and crack that chiropractors do (oh the relief!) and gave me some diet advice. He told me that the aches and pains won’t go away until I rid of myself of the following food: “sugar, rice, sweets,wheat, cereals, pasta, pizza, processed food,beans,soy, preservatives, and such” and to eat plenty of “greens, meat, EGGS (he emphasized eggs), lean meat, grass fed beef, fish, seafood, PROTEIN (he emphasized this one), limit fruits and…
