00:00We all go through a time of aging and one of the most difficult things to maintain is a healthy, at-fit lifestyle and body.

00:08It's challenging, but there are many benefits for us.

00:12Well, that's true, Dianne, because if we are fit, we will be able to avoid the feelings and we will be able to handle the signs of aging.

00:20To share with us some personal tips for staying healthy and fit, we will be joined by Antolin Lenlen-Oreta III.

00:29Good morning and welcome back to Rising China in the Philippines.

00:31Good morning, good morning, Audrey. Good morning, Dianne.

00:34Alright, Sir Lenlen, tell us about your fitness routine that can help our viewers to stay healthy and fit.

00:41Well, actually, I exercise as often as I can, usually five times a week, just for an hour.

00:51But we need to sweat a lot, so exercising is a big thing because it's preventive, we don't get sick.

01:01In fact, I was able to convert my wife, she exercises regularly now, so it's a big thing.

01:07What do I do? I do weights, MWF, and then Tuesdays, Thursdays, I either walk or I swim.

01:20So I've been doing that for quite a while now. If I didn't do that, I'm sure I'll gain weight because I eat a lot.

01:27That's my problem.

01:29And as a chef, I understand that your wife will make you eat a lot.

01:33That's a big problem. But now, I just eat what she feeds me, so I don't have to eat what others feed me.

01:41For that reason, we stay healthy.

01:44Sir, you served as 10 years mayor of Malabon.

01:48Did you have any programs for healthy lifestyles in your constituents back then?

01:54Actually, we had a lot of programs. One of them was Zumba.

01:58But that's for my wife. I'm not as coordinated, I'm just joining in.

02:02But she's the one who does it.

02:04We also do fun runs.

02:06Before, I used to run 5-10K runs.

02:12Of course, all the sports, badminton, basketball. I really love basketball.

02:17And I would join leagues in the barangay.

02:20So I'm joining in.

02:22But sometimes, basketball is too physical.

02:24So I can't avoid physicality.

02:26It's painful, especially when we're getting older.

02:29We get fat.

02:31So we have to take it slow.

02:33Okay. Well, nutrition is very important to you, Sir Linlin.

02:38So personally, Papa, what is your diet and what are your recommendations about it?

02:44Well, we should stay away from sugar, especially as we age.

02:47It's so hard now.

02:49Because most guys nowadays, they become diabetics.

02:53So definitely, we should avoid soft drinks, iced tea, drinks with sugar.

03:00For me, it's hard because I have a sweet tooth.

03:04So I want something sweet.

03:06Like cakes, pastries, ice cream.

03:08So that's my problem.

03:10So definitely, if you avoid sugar, it's a big deal.

03:13But the question is, how?

03:15Especially when we see on social media,

03:17there are pictures of people selling sweets.

03:21It's really about control.

03:23It's mind over matter.

03:25It's all a mindset.

03:27Well, just in case,

03:29if you can't control it,

03:31if you eat a lot of sweets,

03:33what should you do to burn it?

03:35Well, definitely,

03:37you should not be sedentary.

03:39You should move around to burn it.

03:41So definitely,

03:43moving around, exercising,

03:45would be a big help.

03:47Sometimes, if we eat a lot,

03:49if we walk after an hour,

03:51you have to digest your food

03:53and walk around.

03:55That would help tremendously.

03:57Okay, I understand your wife,

03:59aside from being a chef,

04:01you're also a teacher.

04:03Well, we call ourselves

04:05teachers' moms,

04:07for our teachers.

04:09What are your recommendations

04:11for teachers?

04:13Well,

04:15our teachers,

04:17they're overworked

04:19and underpaid.

04:21So we want to help them.

04:23One thing I'm very passionate about,

04:25because I see in our public school system,

04:27there are a lot of kids

04:29who go to school

04:31and reach high school

04:33without knowing how to read.

04:35So that's very alarming.

04:37And maybe some of them,

04:39they might be stunted.

04:41So we want to eliminate stunting

04:43in our communities,

04:45in our barangays,

04:47so we can help our teachers.

04:49Because no matter how good

04:51a teacher is,

04:53if a kid is stunted,

04:55it's hard to learn.

04:57Stunting is a big deal

04:59for the teachers.

05:01And now,

05:03I've been watching the news,

05:05I've been watching

05:07the Congress,

05:09and then I heard

05:11that there are

05:1333 teachers

05:15to one computer.

05:17That's kind of alarming.

05:19They need support.

05:21So hopefully, we can help our teachers

05:23because it's a big deal.

05:25So they need help from the national government

05:27and also from the local government.

05:29Of course.

05:31I stand corrected.

05:33Last Saturday was International Teachers' Day.

05:35Because Teachers' Month

05:37started last September.

05:39But of course, we can celebrate

05:41Teachers' Day every day.

05:43Do you have a message

05:45to our teachers,

05:47to our students?

05:49What's your message?

05:51Being a teacher is a calling.

05:53So definitely,

05:55we need to continue

05:57teaching our students

05:59because they are the future.

06:01And our students need to study and learn

06:03so that we can improve

06:05our quality of life.

06:07Alright. Thank you very much, Sir Lennon Doreta

06:09for visiting us here at Rise and Shine Philippines.

06:11And of course, for sharing

06:13your fitness tips and advocacies.

06:15Thank you, Sir Lennon.
