Hazy Days

The air quality has gotten so bad that we would advise you all to slow down on your training sessions. Classes will carry on, but our workouts won’t be as intense as before so as not to tax your lungs too much.

If you have respiratory problems, we strongly encourage you to cut back on all aerobic activity especially if it’s in the open air. A few general pointers on dealing with the haze situation:

• Wear A Mask—There are a few sorts being sold in pharmacies, but it would be money well-spent to get one of the more dearer types which are molded to be more form-fitting on your face, and can filter the air better. Guardian sells these at RM6.50 a piece, and stocks deplete rapidly as soon as they arrive at the stores.
• Drink More Water—This can’t be stressed enough. Your normal 8 glasses a day may not suffice in these conditions.
• Hide In Air-Conditioned Buildings/Rooms
• Don’t Smoke
