7.6km in 48 mins

Today I managed to run the longest I have in a while. My timing was bad because I was running with a friend who was slow and kept stopping to tie his shoelaces. But 7.6km is quite good after a long time. Will to do it again soon.

40 min workout

Today, I managed to squeeze in a 40 min workout into my busy day. I was able to do stretches, pushups, situps, crunches, bicycle kicks, plank and side-plank. Progress is real and visible, while my motivation is increasing. I realise that I have to run more frequently to increase fat burn and I will do that on a more regular basis now that the weather is getting warmer. Cold weather sucks.

20 min workout

I only managed to do a 20 min workout consisting of stretches, pushups, situps, plank and bicycle kick today because I was tired. Got back from work late at night and even though I wanted to just grab dinner and sleep, I forced my self to do the workout. I managed to do it because of some good advice I read somewhere which said that you must get angry at your laziness (your body) in order to push yourself to workout. It works.

5km in 29mins 25s + Workout

Today was a good day. I managed to do a 5km run in 29mins 25s. Immediately after, I also squeezed in a 20min workout with pushups, situps, plank, crunches and bicycle kicks.

With the reduced workload from my course, I am finally getting back into the proper rhythm again. I will be posting soon again. Progress is visible now.

Apologies for not posting...

So I apologise to those following my blog for not posting. I had to shift countries and this kinda hit my routine. I didn't quit working out though. I still managed to get at least 2 to 3 days of working out or running since my last post. the problem was that I was not able to post my progress due to heavy workload. I will try to post now that things have settled somewhat.

Today I ran 5.72km in 33.5mins. Which is a good time considering that I have not been practicing. Anyway, more posts in the future.

40 min workout

Today I managed to do a 40 min workout with pushups, situps, plank, side-plank, crunches, bycicle kicks, and stretches. I've missed a couple of days due to work issues, but hopefully, I'll reduce the misses in the future. Consistency is the key to achievement.

40 min Workout

Today I am back to my full workout routine and I managed to do a 40min workout involving pushups, situps, crunches, plank, side-plank, bicycle kicks and stretches. When working out, it is always important to watch your diet in order to ensure that you are not putting on more than you are burning. But it is also important to eat enough so that you have sufficient energy in order to do your daily activities + a rigorous workout. So eat the correct foods, with lots of protein, fiber and vitamins. Reduce intake of carbohydrates and fats. Fried foods and items such as mayonnaise, sodas, and sweets should be avoided almost entirely.
