KNN Heat index temperature now 31 deg C. I think just go out later to do some zone 2 sua no mood.

And it will get to as high as 35-36 deg C (Heat index temp) in 2-3 months time.

Possible to buy/place a treadmill at home? Turn on aircon.

Oh no, that one is impossible. Totally no space.

It’s life changing for your poor neighbour downstairs as well. Have you asked them if you are disturbing their peacefulness?

When you thought public urination happened only in the Singapore marathon, the world's most well-behaved culture faces the same issue.

Somehow home is not conducive for exercise for most people. I have several weights, abs roller at home that became white elephant eventually.

My treadmill less used these days. Probably once a week by my wife. Indoor bikes on average once a week. Dumbells 3 times a week. Resistance band (tubes) once a week. Some other equipment rarely or barely used. Luckily never buy chin up bar and dips bar.

personally i am someone who need a dedicated space/room for certain functions, eg. work out. if i don't have the space to workout, i wouldn't want the hassle to move things around to do so. Thats y i need to get out of my house.

Pro jiu shi pro.

1.0 1-1 only for 70s 400m. Even at the 11th set with 30 seconds recovery.
That is 2:55 pace

edit
18th set 68 seconds (2:50 pace) still at 1.5 1.6. Siao man. Not even touching LT2 actually is very comfortably under

I tried running (ok first time) clocked around 65s on GPS 0.42km (possible that actualy distance is 0.4k, assuming GPS over-read), that's max effort oh s*** wanna die already .

True pros really no joke.

Of coz if go measure the Japs / Kenyans/ethiopians/ugandans is yet another level, but USA shdnt be that bad.

edit Liam's 3K is already 7:34 lol....... turbo.

Time to go out boys.......

Got my bmai turbo 3 yesterday and took it out for run today. thoughts are that it is definitely more stable than plaid 1.5. I think energy wise plaid gives more return but for lower speeds I think turbo 3 feels better. Race wise I think I would go for the plaid for the extra kick but fast workouts/ intervals will go with bmai.

15 min warmup

5 min fast, 5 slow
4 fast, 4 slow
3 fast, 3 slow
2 fast, 2 slow,
1 fast

10 mins recovery, then repeat

5 mins cooldown

How are your runs with the turbo 3.0 so far?
just had my first run turbo 3.0 today and was amazed i could almost sustain a pace below 6min/km throughout a HM.
Very stable, bouncy, responsive, not too soft and super light. Definitely super value for money at RMB699. Personally this feels better than my favourite, pb3.0 and Adios Pro 3.

Just ran 10k yesterday with the Turbo 3.

Firm yet have a degree of softness. Bouncy and indeed super light. The stock version without insole, I feel is best for runners who like to feel every push-off.

Gonna try another run with insole. I did tried walking at home with NB Rebel V3 insoles and it felt abit like Plaid V1.

Really good value. Only con is the colourway not that great. But no complains.

I like the stability and lightness of the shoe and use it for most of my speed work but I think races I still prefer plaid haha. I prefer the energy return of plaid 1.5

you got a pair of Turbo 3.0 too! welcome to the club!
indeed the colorways aren't great, but the shoe feels really good during runs. It has all the characteristics i want in a pair of good running shoes. Many claimed it should be used at higher paces, eg. higher than 5min/km runner, i think this doesn't feel too shabby at the paces i run in.

initially i wanted to try running with insoles as well. Bought a pair of the BMAI insole, felt higher, but will feel tighter. After yesterday's run, i think am good with the stock option.

Feels this pair can really compete with top western brands running shoes. Am so glad to have kept this and returned the nike zoomfly 6, which was slightly on the tight side for my left feet despite half size larger than my usual size.
