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

Apologies for not posting: It's a been a busy few weeks

So it's been a busy couple of weeks and I've not been able to work out much at all. However, I did do a 20 min workout today and also ran a 10km run on Wednesday. The run was very good because I beat my best time for a 10km run from 53min 50 secs by 4 mins to complete it in 49 mins 56 secs.

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.

30 min run + 15 min workout

Today, I did not have enough energy and decided to do only a 5.4km run. Fortunately for me though, I managed to do it in record time. Normally it would take me about 32 mins to run this distance, but I did it in only 30 mins. I think I should go for a proper 10k run this week to see if I have improved on my overall 10k speed. We shall see. I also manged to do a 15 min workout which involved pushups, squats, glute-bridges, crunches, super mans and leg-raises. It wasn't too intensive because I was not feeling like a full workout. I will definitely do full workouts as much as possible during this week.

35 mins workout

Yesterday I did a 35 mins workout with pushups, crunches, squats, leg-lifts, glute-bridges, planks and supermans. I didn't have too much time to do the workout and had to juggle it between project meetings and a birthday party. I think I messed up my nutrition at the party though. So it was not a good day. I really have to eat clean tomorrow and for the rest of this week. Here's hoping for a 'well balanced meals' week.

41 mins workout

Yesterday I did a workout after a short break. This was mainly due to traveling which did not give me time to workout. However, today I exercised for 41 mins which is really long. But, I think I really needed it. I did stretches, pushups, crunches, squats, supermans, leg-lifts and glute-bridges. I will really have to catch up this week to make up for the 2 days that I was not able to workout. So I'm resolving to workout everyday this week in the hope to really get ahead.

33 mins run

Wow...today was an intense run. 33 mins of pure running. It was really intense and I was really traveling. Actually ran with a friend who was running quite fast. Although he managed to keep it up for 33 mins, I doubt he could have maintained the pace for about an hour. I'm guess we ran about 5 to 6km. Anyway the guy was an inexperienced runner and I let him control the pace. I think that I should take over next time. He was really finding it difficult towards the end mostly because he didn't pace himself well. Anyway he was a good running buddy and I'll try to convince him to join me on a another run in the near future.
