“What inspired you to be a bodybuilder?”
“Mostly Arnold Schwarzenegger and The Rock init, coz when I was little, we didn’t have, like, well there was PlayStations and that, but like my family weren’t as good with other things init, so we’d get everything like a year or two late. So everything for us was, we see stuff on the TV, we watch that, and at that time The Rock and Arnold Schwarzenegger were the guys like the rock was, as the, remember the peoples champion. Arnold Schwarzenegger was Terminator, Conan the barbarian, all those things there you know what I mean. And these man had, the biggest, baddest bodies, but it didn’t look ugly. Like they they just had that that look to them like, not that they looked like their were strong, they just looked… they just looked like I don’t even know. Reminded me of like, when you looked at them, you was like, it was like you was looking at the old, old, like er statues of like Greek gods init, coz that’s how they use to dictate that, perf, like the body was perfectly chiselled out in every way. And when you saw it, saw that, when I use to listen to these guys, coz I never use to just watch like wrestling or just watched the films. I was done read about them, watch stuff about their life like. Stuff about how erm, Arnold grew up in Austria and that. And the rock coming from an Hawaiian and Samoan background, Like where he is, but its deep, deep in traditions both of them init. Like Arnolds parents wanted him to be, er, er a policeman like, but he had his own dreams as well. Same with the rock, like his whole family was wrestlers, but he wanted to be more than a wrestler. And it made me know that, like bodybuilding starts a lot of things coz, when you think about it you can start of as just a bodybuilder, but progressing to so much stuff. Coz it teaches you a lot like I was saying, it teaches you about discipline, commitment, like perseverance. All these things come from bodybuilding man.”

In order to eliminate back pain that already bothers you or to stay away from injuries that may occur from day to day activities, it is important to keep the core strong and flexible. There is a number of exercises doctors and personal trainers advise you to do, but how about that time of the day when you are not able to attend a gym or hit the floor for some "ME" time?
There is a solution - SpinaliS chairs for active sitting. As a matter of fact that is the BEST SOLUTION because you don't have to do anything, but sit. At the first glance the SpinaliS chair looks like a well designed regular office chair, but there is a difference - a spring under its seat, which forces your body to keep itself in the balance thus working out your core muscles that in return will help you to get rid of the back pain and will improve your posture.
Check out SpinaliS Apollo Series chairs, which is an ideal choice for women or men with a smaller body type:

What the Core Does?
The area of the body, which is commonly referred to as the core, is your midsection and it involves all your muscles in that area including the front, back and sides. The core includes the traverse abdominis (TVA), erector spinae, obliques and your lower lats.
These muscles work as stabilizers for the entire body. Core training is simply doing specific exercises to develop and strengthen these stabilizer muscles.
If any of these core muscles are weakened, it could result in lower back pain or a protruding waistlines. Keeping these core muscles strong can do wonders for your posture and help give you more strength in other exercises like running, walking or sitting on a SpinaliS chair.

"Aframax tanker"
is a medium-sized crude tanker with a dead weight tonnage (DWT) ranging between 80,000 and 120,000. The tanker derives its name from AFRA which stands for Average Freight Rate Assessment. AFRA system was created in 1954 by Shell Oil to standardise contract terms.
Though relatively smaller than Very Large Crude Containers (VLCC) and the Ultra Large Crude Containers (ULCC), the tanker has a cargo carrying capacity between 70,000 and 100,000 metric tonnes. The average cargo carrying capacity of Aframax is approximately 750,000 barrels.
Due to their favorable size, Aframax tankers can serve most ports in the world. These vessels serve regions which do not have very large ports or offshore oil terminals to accommodate very large crude carriers and ultra large crude carriers.
Aframax tankers are just perfect for short to medium haul crude oil transportation.
