MuayThai

Alex suggested running or kick-boxing to increase metabolism and to burn off the extra carbo.
The suggestions strikes me to explore Muay Thai.

Muay Thai originates in Thailand and is delivered in terms of kicks(teh), punches(chok) and elbows(tee sok).
In addition to just learning the various fight/defence techniques, a Muay Thai fighter also focus on body conditioning.
The basic ones are rope jumping, push-ups, sit-ups and tyre hopping.

I've done my research and the lessons conducted at Royal Thai Fitness Training Centre seems really economical($25/lesson) and established.
They are also afflicted with Sitchunthong Gym meaning that I can have sparring sessions with the local Thai fighters if I am on holiday in Bangkok. So cool right?

Here, check out their website:

Hey, any takers to join me? *winks*
I bet it will be tiring but rewarding :)
