Whether at the gym, at work or hanging out, I’m constantly approached and politely quizzed on my nutrition which is key to maintaining a lean, appealing physique year round.

Well that did not take long. Imported just three weeks ago, Kentucky-bred King’s Night announced its arrival Sunday with a brilliant victory in the feature C and Lower seven-furlong event of the Guyana Cup Fever.

The benefits of rest and recovery and massages were discussed in the past two columns as some of the things you should typically do post-workout to help with your fitness goals outside of the gym.

Guyana’s athletes on Tuesday departed for Grenada to compete in the 45th CARIFTA Games scheduled for this weekend at the National Athletic Stadium in St.

Director of Sports Christopher Jones says that sports associations have not been submitting yearly calendar of events to the National Sports Commis-sion (NSC) and, as such, the NSC is unable to fully fund sports teams competing in regional tournaments.

Former national junior table tennis star Dillon Mahadeo is now officially the “The Fittest Man in Guyana” after winning the 2016 E-Networks Fitness Challenge at the National Park on Sunday.

Guyana’s boxing drought at the Olympic Games continues. The nation’s chances of punching tickets to the 2016 Olympic Games went out the window this past weekend when Desmond Amsterdam and Dennis Thomas lost their respective bouts at the American Boxing Confederation’s (AMBC) Olympic Qualifier in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Last week the topic of training smarter rather than harder was discussed.

CrossFit is the ultimate test of fitness and athleticism. It requires speed, coordination, aerobic and muscular endurance, experience with Olympic lifts, raw strength, skill, and a healthy serving of guts, determination and power.

Says Emmerson Campbell The Running Brave Athletic Club (RBAC) can safely be called a breeding ground for talent and champions.

There is good news and bad news for the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA).

Having added to debunking the myth that strength training would suddenly morph women into bulky, manly beings, my thoughts naturally turned to the quality of training.

The ascension of Elton ‘The Bully’ Dharry in the world bantamweight ranks continued in TKO fashion on Saturday night at the Giftland Mall.

At least eight athletes made sure that their tickets could be booked for the CARIFTA Games in Grenada next month when they triumphantly competed at the ‘Smalta National Youth and Junior Championships’ over the weekend at the National Track and Field Centre.

Last week the topic of women lifting weights was discussed and the perception of weightlifting making females bulky and manly was debunked.

The four-month wait for boxing starved fans is finally over. Get ready to be served a scheduled 38 rounds of fistic fury tonight when the ‘Gentleman’s Sport’ returns to the ornate splendor of the Giftland Mall as the GBBC presents ‘Hostile Territory’.

Mere hours after stepping off the plane, Elton ‘The Bully’ Dharry headed straight to the Andrew ‘Sixhead’ Lewis gym yesterday.

If I had a dollar for every time I heard an uninformed woman say, “I don’t lift weights because I don’t want to look hard and manly,” I probably would be a rich guy.

A rematch involving welterweight prospect Kishawn ‘Special K’ Simon and Cassius ‘Classy’ Matthews has been added to the undercard of the ‘Hostile Territory’ event scheduled for February 27at the Giftland Mall.
