Workout Log 204 - Wow! What a killler workout.

Completed weight training today where I worked on calves, back, triceps, chest and abs. With all that being said, I was seriously dead tired as I only had 20 seconds of rest between sets. Wheew, I almost forgot how intense this workout plan is! Soreness is going away though. =)

Tomorrow is weight training again focusing on legs , shoulders, biceps and abs. Lookin' forward to it. :-)

Workout Log 203 - Sweatin' it up on the Treadmill

Completed 30 min cardio on the treadmill and kept within my calorie intake of 2000 (lots of protein and lots of veggies).

Tomorrow is weight training and abs. Still a little sore from the last 2 sessions, but should be good to go the next day.

Workout Log 203 - Geting physical with Virtua Tennis on the Wii

So after many months on contemplating of getting a Wii, I finally got one. Since "all" the stores were sold out, I was fortunate to find some kid on Craigslist that was selling one. Pretty good deal - $200 for the console, 2 games and 2 controllers....Hmm not bad... =)

I have to say, overall I really love the wii. =) My right arm is killing me right now from all the hyper extended swings while playing a really cool tennis game called Virtua Tennis 2009 (shown above). Looking back at my little exercise I got there, I was in a sweat and my arm was about to drop off. Overall, very cool system... 7.5 out of 10 - as the graphics can't compare with the 360 nor the PS3.

In regards to my commitments for today, I completed everything and stayed on track working on legs, biceps, arms and abs all within a 45 minute period. I am however very sore. It's been almost a week without a workout and my muscles are now screaming in pain. But to come to think of it, it's a good pain. =) 

So did I exceed my workout with the Wii today?? I dunno, I was in a sweat and all, but it's not as if I was using the Wii Fit or anything close to it.... So I'll mark today as just on schedule.

Tomorrow is 30 min cardio and I desperately need it...Looking forward to it... =)

Workout Log 202 - 1st Workout for 2010

So it was back in the gym for me for the 1st day of the year. Since I had so much rest from the day before, I was really pumped to get back in there.

Today I worked on chest, back, calves, triceps and abs all within 45 min. No cardio scheduled for today, even-though I felt a little tempted to get on the treadmill for about 5 minutes or so....Of coarse to keep consistent with my workout I had to make sure that my calorie intake and healthy foods were in check for today and definitely kept on track.

Tomorrow is legs, arms & abs and looking forward to another successful day. =)

Workout Log 201 - Sleep Time before the Big Workout

So, I didn't do much today. I spent most of my time sleeping and watching movies. I'm still recovering from new years and looking forward to starting up with Day 1/Week 1 with my workout plan tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'll be working on weight training and abs only. No Cardio. Again, looking forward to getting back in the gym and leaving with that pumped up feeling! Yeaah!! =)

Workout Log 200 - My 200th Day!!

So today marks another milestone : completing my 200th day on my workout plan.

Looking back at my 1st day, I was fedup with my current look, and used action and a nutritional/workout plan as my main weapon to battle the bulge. I also recall reaching day 100 and feeling like a million bucks. I've come a long way and the results definitely show for themselves. =)

Week 27 Pic

So which now brings me to a quick review of this passed week. Three words - "I totally sucked!" =) This week is the worst week in 200 days. I have never gained as much weight as 4 pounds in such a little amount of time. But in perspective, rightfully deserved and I won't lie - I really enjoyed myself gaining it! hehehe...=) Since I only went to the gym 4 to 5 times in the passed week & a half, binged on holiday goodies and drank lots of alcohol, that could only lead to one thing - gained weight and an increase around the waist. I could just imagine how much I could have gained if I did not go to the gym??? Yikes...

Well, I got some work ahead of me as I have taken a step back with an increase of 1% fat and need to get back on the saddle of my journey. My main goal is to reach 5% fat. If I could reach this goal within 30 days that would be good. =) Then after I take it easy and just workout 3 to 4 times a week, instead of 6 times.

So, my start date is this Monday(as with most people starting with their new years resolutions) and definitely looking forward to getting back in there. =)

Workout Log 199 - Happy New Year !!

Happy New Year!!

Hope your new years was good as mine. Since I hosted the new years party the night before, I woke up with a huge hangover and skipped out on my workout.  As for calorie intake, we still had tons of food left over from the night before, so obviously I couldn't let it go to waste right? :-)

Today was also to mark an end to my mission 3, but have decided to provide the update tomorrow with the results as I will be celebrating my 200th day since starting this program. I'm not looking forward to the results as I know I've gained weight over the passed holiday week :-(
