Hello Ori, Tell me more about endurance training. #OriSays, Everyone should work on improving their endurance as it keeps our heart lungs and circulatory system healthy. Muscle endurance refers to your potential to perform physical activities over longer durations. If your muscle structure favours endurance, you have the potential to excel in exercises that leverage on endurance such as sprinting, gymnastics, weightlifting, basketball and volleyball. In order to improve your endurance, you need to progressively increase your workload be it volume, resistance, length or distance. Repeating the same exercises over an extended period without increasing your workload won't contribute greatly towards building your endurance capacity. You should also eat more dark leafy greens and nuts for magnesium which improves energy use and muscle recovery. #AskOri Do you have a high or low potential for Endurance? #enduranceathlete #endurancetraining #endurancerunning #aerobiccapacity #aerobictraining #aerobicfitness #aerobics #aerobicos #aerobicexercise #personalizedfitness #personalizedtraining #personalisedtraining #sgfit #sgfitspo #sgfitness #sgfitfam #sgfitness #fitnesssg #OriDNA #AskOri #TimeToGetPersonal #Uniquelyyou #DNAgenetics #genetics #dnafitness #uniquetoyou #fitnessplanner #fitnessplan

Hello Ori, What is endurance? #OriSays, Endurance is the ability to sustain physical effort over time. Endurance training refers to lower intensity activity performed for a longer period time. Endurance depends on the proportion of slow-twitch fibres in your muscles. Slow twitch muscle fibres are able to provide their own energy source and can sustain contractions for an extended period of time. Your genes influence how much of your muscles are made up of slow twitch fibres, and therefore your capacity to perform endurance exercise. Studies have identified a number of genetic variants associated with higher proportion of slow-twitch fibres, and higher oxygen supplies to muscle tissues. Knowing your genetic-based endurance score is important for creating your optimal fitness plan, so you reach your goals better and faster. #AskOri Have you tested your potential for Endurance yet? #enduranceathlete #endurancetraining #endurancerunning #aerobiccapacity #aerobictraining #aerobicfitness #aerobics #aerobicos #aerobicexercise #personalizedfitness #personalizedtraining #personalisedtraining #sgfit #sgfitspo #sgfitness #sgfitfam #sgfitness #fitnesssg #OriDNA #AskOri #TimeToGetPersonal #Uniquelyyou #DNAgenetics #genetics #dnafitness #uniquetoyou #fitnessplanner #fitnessplan

Hello Ori, How can I improve my VO2 Max? #OriSays A good starting point to improve your VO2 Max is 20 minutes of cardiovascular exercise twice a week, at a Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) of 6 out of 10 This is where you're breathing heavily but still able to maintain a conversation. Some cardiovascular exercises you can start with are swimming, cycling and rowing. Knowing your genetic variations associated with aerobic performance allows you to customise the types and intensity of cardiovascular exercises that are aligned with your body’s potential and your fitness goals. #vo2 #vo2max #vo2runners #runningtips #runningmotivation #runnerlovers #personalizedfitness #personalizedtraining #personalisedtraining #sgfit #sgfitspo #sgfitness #sgfitfam #sgfitness #fitnesssg #OriDNA #AskOri #TimeToGetPersonal #Uniquelyyou #DNAgenetics #genetics #dnafitness #uniquetoyou #fitnessplanner #fitnessplan #enduranceathlete #endurancerunning

Hello Ori, What's VO2 Max? #OriSays Your VO2 Max is the maximum rate of oxygen your body can use during prolonged exercise, and is used as an indicator of your aerobic or cardiorespiratory fitness. Improving your VO2 Max not only improves your running performance; but more importantly also your heart, lung and muscle functions that prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Hello Ori, How can I improve my child's proficiency in the Chinese language? #OriSays, If your child is somehow struggling with reading Chinese more time, effort and attention might be needed to help them. Listening plays an important part in mastering a language. Getting used to the sound of a word is helpful in speaking, which may in turn help in recognizing it on paper. Creating a Chinese-speaking environment is a way parents can encourage and help their child enjoy learning Chinese. #sgdads #sgmoms #sgmommies #sgkid #kidssg #sgkids #littlelearners #kidshealth #sgparents #sgdaddy #sgmum #sgmummies #sgmom #sgmummy #singaporechild #sgbabiesandtoddlers #dnakids #singaporechild #sgmum #sgpreschool #sgchildren #singaporekids #sgdad #sgparent #momblogger #sgmombloggers #sgmomblogger

Hello Ori, How do my genes affect my ability to read Chinese? #OriSays, The Chinese Longitudinal Study of Reading Development confirmed that variants in the DCDC2 gene is associated with poorer reading performance and other reading-related cognitive skills including rapid number naming, phoneme deletion, and tone detection. Interestingly, this gene is also associated with development dyslexia or reading and spelling disorders in English too. Having certain genetic predispositions is only one of many influences and doesn’t prevent you from successfully acquiring particular skills. A special focus coupled with consistent, dedicated effort helps with learning over time. #sgtoddler #singaporechild #motherhoodsg #sgmum #sgpreschool #sgfamily #sgchildren #singaporekids #sgbabies #sgdad #sgparent #momblogger #sgmombloggers #sgmomblogger #dnakids #OriDNA #AskOri#TimeToGetPersonal #UnlockingYouForGood #Uniquelyyou #DNAgenetics #genetics #uniquetoyou #personalisedwellness

Hello Ori, How do I get the benefits of manganese in skin care? #OriSays, Manganese is a component of superoxide dismutase (SOD), one of the body's most powerful antioxidant enzymes. It is a vital mineral for skin protection against free radical damage. Boost your levels of this mineral eating manganese-rich foods such as oats, brown rice, green leafy vegetables, beans and grains. #sgskincare #beautysg #sgbeauty #skincaresg #skinsg #sgigbeauty #asianskincare #personalskincare #personalisedskincare #nutrigenomics #antioxidant #antiageing #skincare #skinageing #antiaging #skindna #skingenetics #freeradicals #foodnutrition #dnanutrition #genetic #genetics #personalisednutrition #personalizednutrition #OriDNA #AskOri #DNAgenetics

What’s panax ginseng, and what’s good about it? Panax means “all heal” in Greek, while ginseng is a popular herb used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Panax ginseng refers specifically to Korean or Asian ginseng. This type of ginseng contains ginsenosides, the active ingredient responsible for boosting a variety of the body’s physiological functions, and isn’t found in American or Siberian ginseng which are used for other purposes. Panax ginseng is good for boosting mental focus and memory, physical endurance, immune functions, and tolerance to stress. Panax ginseng is considered an adaptogenic herb, which means it’s non-toxic and helps your response to stressful influences or triggers by normalising your physiological functions. Panax ginseng has also been shown to possess glucoregulatory properties by reducing blood glucose levels just an hour after the consumption of glucose.
