Miao county named ‘home of longevity’

Mayang is home to 45 centenarians and is one of two counties to have won the title on the mainland. The other is Rongfu County in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Mayang’s rate of centenarians is 12 out of every 100,000 people, which is much higher than the UN’s 7.5 per 100,000.

Be interesting to know what they may do that gives them almost twice as many hundred-year-olds as the average.

My weight improved to 226 today, but the percentage body fat ticked up to 30. Not going to get too worked up about it, but it is something to monitor. I had a good cardio workout today and ate well, so I have done my part. Could be just one of those normal fluctuations.

Ate oatmeal with protein at breakfast and a lean burger with salsa and a side of baby carrots for lunch. Right now I am having some cottage cheese, a clementine and a megamuffin.

Tomorrow is leg day at the gym, and it will be the first real test of my resolve as the only way I will be able to squeeze in my least favorite workout is to wake up early for it.
