CPT ASI School for Standup Paddling

24/01/2025

Great news! CPT ASI School for Standup Paddling has resumed operation. We will begin our regular paddling sessions starting. It is time to come out and play again.

The National Environment Agency lowered the beach’s grading from Good to Fair last year due to more frequent readings of elevated Enterococcus bacteria in its waters.

I am out at sea every Saturday morning at East Coast Park doing 7-10km paddling as my form of cardio workout. Just waiting for the beach at Pasir Ris Park to be opened again for us to continue our expedition to Pulau Ubin and Coney Island. Continue to stay fit. SUP is one of a good way to strengthen your core.

One of the moment that I always dread! Sea Rescue ASI SUP recertification that needs to be done once every 2 years! Swim 100m in the open sea, get back to shore, run 200m, grab your SUP board, launch into the sea and prone paddle 200m to perform a rescue within 10 minutes.

The last time when I did the sea rescue certification, I trained hard for it. Even with training, I was panting for breath when I reached the finishing line. The joke then was that instead of rescuing, I almost end up being rescued.

This time round, I did not have much time to train. I just did my CT angioplasty in October and was supposed to rest more and moderate my activities. Glad that my Cardiologist gave me the go-ahead to increase my training intensity last week. So with one week of training, I attended my recertification! If you see such post on Facebook, it always mean good news! Yes, I made it with flying colour - my best time of going below 9 minutes!

I believe God has given me a new lease of life. I discovered my condition via my annual medical checkup, went through the heart procedure, recovered without any damage to the heart and experienced such accelerated recovery. I need to steward this new beginning. To God be the glory!

Happy to be able to do some cardio workout and drills. I am getting back fitter. Just need the discipline to do it more often. Burning away more sugars in the body!
