My version of the Rumble in the Jungle
My version of the Rumble in the Jungle. Not quite the way Foreman and Ali did it in Kinshasa in 1974, but probably the closest I can get in my own garden. Just the gloves and a reason to start exercising.
I go down there every evening just to feel the rhythm
Feel the rain like an English summer.

Even in the rain.
Morning start with walking and balanced breakfast
Morning Start
- Water
- Walk with a walking stick and 8 kg resistance
Breakfast
This morning I had:
- Milk — protein, calcium, and hydration
- Banana — energy and potassium
- Oats — fiber and slow-release carbohydrates
- Yogurt — protein and satiety
- Cardamom — flavor and aroma
It was a simple and balanced breakfast providing carbohydrates for energy, protein for recovery, and fiber for sustained fullness.
Later Today
- Salmon dinner
- Weightlifting session
A salmon dinner will add high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids, making it a good complement to today’s training and overall health goals.

Wearing burgundy Adidas today at a board meeting. And with burgundy, I make the same reflection as you all. I’m also thinking of the House of Burgundy, which built one of Europe’s richest trade networks, developed early governance structures, and elevated art and court culture.
