50 min run + Workout

Yesterday I managed to do a 50 min run at an easy pace to get my body used to running long distances. It was a good run and the weather was good also. Afterwards, I did a 25 min workout consisting of stretches, pushups, situps, partial pullups and chest push. It wasn't a tough workout and I think the effect was perfect.

5km run + workout

Yesterday I went for a 5km run + a couple of km to the track and back and a workout. The workout involved stretches, pushups, situps, plank, crunches and leg-raises. This is in preparation for my long run this Sunday and hopefully everything will go well. It will be my longest and I hope to break my record doing this. I plan to take Friday and Saturday off to rest for my run...so hopefully that will pay off.

25 min Workout

Yesterday I did a 25 min workout comprising of stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, plank, leg-raises, and supermans. It was a tough workout considering my arms were still aching from the previous day. Today I feel that my arms are really hurting and I think I'll only be going for a run today.

5km run + 20 min workout

The day before yesterday I went for a 5km run + a 20 min workout comprising of stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, chest pushes on the body weight workout machines outside my house. Those machines are surprisingly effective and I'll be using them more often.

5km run + workout

Today I did a 5km run and a workout involving stretches, pushups, situps and crunches. It was actually longer than 5km because I had to run about 1.5 km to the track each way. However, I'm not going to count that distance and take it only as a warm up. This is good since it allows me to run longer distances without me realizing it. I'm preparing for a 30km run next weekend and hopefully these runs will help me in completing the race on time.

25 min Workout

Today I managed to do a 25 min workout with pushups, situps, crunches, squats, plank, side-plank, leg-raises and stretches. It's been a while since I have done an intensive workout like this and we'll see how I feel tomorrow morning.

6km run + Workout

On Tuesday I was able to do a 6km run together with a workout involving pushups, crunches, plank and stretches. It felt really good and I think I will do this routine more often.

30 mins workout + 7 km Run

On Monday I did a 30 min workout involving stretches, situps, pushups, crunches, plank, glute-raises and leg-raises. This workout was after about 1 week on not doing any sort of workout and it really felt good to start working out again.

I also did a 7km run on Tuesday in 42 mins 36secs. It's a little slow for me, but I think that time will improve in the future. Right now I have to keep motivated to workout on a regular basis.

Short run + 1 hour workout

Today I managed to do a short run with a workout of 1 hour consisting of pushups, squats, crunches, and machine press. This time, I really did a lot in the gym even though I don't like wasting time in the gym too much. However, this was good because I went with friends and the experience was good motivation for my goal. I think I will do this more often due to the motivation benefit that it brings.

20 min run + 20 min workout

Today I did a 20 min run and a 20 min workout with pushups, crunches, shoulder machine and the pull down machine. This is cos I went to the gym today and thought that I might as well do some machines while I am there. I don't intend to continue doing gym machines religiously though as I feel that I get the best results by doing body weight exercises.

30 min run + 15 min workout

Yesterday I managed to do a 30 min run and a 15 min workout afterwards. The workout consisted of stretches, pushups, crunches, leg-raises and glute bridges. I'm going to see if I can do the same combination today.

30 min workout

Yesterday I did a 30 min workout with stretches, pushups, situps, leg-raises, glute-bridges, plank and crunches. An unstable work schedule is a real killer for working out. I hope my current project is over this work, cos it's really messing up my workout evenings.

28 min run + 15 min workout

Yesterday I did a 28 min run and a 15 min workout consisting of stretches, pushups, glute-bridges, exercise wheel, leg-raises and crunches. The run + workout combination is truly amazing. Al though I can't run everyday, I am going to make it a habit to do at least 15 mins workout after every run. Today I decided to take a rest day due to being extraordinarily tired and sleepy. I will rest today and continue workouts again tomorrow.

30 min workout

Yesterday I did a 30 min workout consisting of stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, leg-raises, glute-bridges, plank and exercise wheel. It was very fast and very intense. The momentum has been good so far and I hope I can maintain this consistently.

32 min run + workout

Yesterday I did a 32 min run and a workout which consisted of stretches, pushups, crunches, plank and the exercise wheel. The wheel was again a very difficult exercise and I think I really need to improve my abs with the wheel since it seems that my abs are very weak. In any case, the + workout combination really made me sweat and I think this combination is the best for anyone planning to get ripped. I will try to do this more in the future.

20 min workout

Yesterday I did a 20 min workout with stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, leg-raises, glute-bridges, plank and exercise wheel. The exercise wheel was surprisingly difficult. I could do only 5 reps. Initially, I did not believe that this was a difficult exercise, but now I have developed a new respect for it and will continue to do it every day. Check out the video I found on Youtube below.

Oh and Happy New Year to all!

30 min workout

Yesterday I did a 30 min workout with stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, leg-raises, glute-bridges and plank. I have been really pushing the limits of my strength this last few days and I'm hopeful to start seeing changes soon. Will keep this blog updated.

30min workout

Today I did a 30 min workout with stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, leg-raises and plank. It was very intense and I didn't slow down during the whole workout. My goal is to do this same routine daily until I reach my goal of being ripped.

30 mins workout yesterday

Yesterday I did a 30 min workout which comprised of stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, leg-raises and glute bridges. It has been a while since I did these excersises properly and yesterday was the first time Iactually did them properly after a long time. I'm getting back into my routine slowly and surely. Will post more when

35 min workout

Wow....could not work out yesterday due to heavy workload. So today was especially intense. I basically workout out really hard today for the full 35 mins. I did stretches, pushups, squats, crunches, plank, supermans, leg-lifts and glute-bridges. It felt good to do a really intense workout. I will definitely try to do this on a daily basis. I also have not done a long run in a while. Maybe I'll try to do a long run tomorrow. It will depend on how much work I can get done during the day. Balancing work, life and working out is a real challenge, and managing that balance is the critical part of making working out a lifestyle choice.
