Pakistan Trip

Returning from an almost 2 week trip to Pakistan has definitely added to the continuous setbacks in my Parkour training. Although the weather in Pakistan was a nice change from the brutal hot and humid Bangkok, it was not any easier to train back in my home country. It was just too cold and I haven't been used to working out in the cold.


However I did manage to spend some time creating a diet and workout plan, and so far I think I am doing a fairly good job keeping to it. There were some minor deviations but nothing too damaging.


I also came across a new advertisement in Pakistan done by Ufone that featured Parkour and was shot in Bangkok (I wish I knew so I could have tried to cast for it). It's quite interesting in so many ways because first my uncle works in Ufone and the company that did the ad (Benetone films), I  have actually worked with them before for another ad.


I have also been busy building my Parkour bio because sometimes I get emails to send my pictures and videos for a possible ad or be featured in an article or a magazine.  Just the other day I even took my younger brother to take some shots as well. I needed some new ones anyway - it was about time. Here a few from that day.






Anyways, that's that for today. I will just have to continue to keep training and hopefully my arm heals soon so I can really kick off and gain my skills back.
