22Apr2012 Workout

I figure having a subject of “Today’s Workout” will be too much if I’m going to be updating it everyday (or as often as I can) =b

I made a short plan of what I expect to do till august but I’m doubting how effective it will be.. But I guess it’ll be my base and I’m just gonna do my best each day, especially the weekends..

Today I did:-
40 crunches
10 pairs of side crunches
20 pairs mountain climbers
10 pairs side barriers
10 turkish get ups
10 reverse push ups
10 pairs reptiles
10 pairs prisoners squats
10 planking jacks
10 pairs side reptiles (not so sure what it’s called)

So overall it seems like I did a lot right? I took bout 15mins and really got my heart pumping.. Thinking of going up and down the stairs later.. But first, I need food for energy =)

Today’s Workout

My mum n sisters left for umrah today (I hope it goes smoothly for them n they come back safely), so I occupied myself with a little workout..

‘Jog’ for about 8 minutes,
30 crunches,
30 reptiles,
30 bum lifting,
30 opposite push ups,
100 jumps,
And some other things I’m not quite sure what to call them..

Overall, took me about 15-20mins, n got all sweaty.. Doesn’t feel good physically, but I feel good about myself.. I’ll need to be more precise with the goals I’d like to make for myself.. Will think of something later, but might be between the lines of jogging for 5mins straight, then gradually increasing the number.. I’ll try to jog bout 500 metres in the 1st week of may.. Hopefully I could gradually make it to 10km by end of aug (although we have fasting month before that).. We’ll see lah..

The Month of Toning & Strength

Since I’m so out of shape, I don’t expect to do a lot of jogging or brisk walking soon.. I figure I’ll need to strengthen my muscles n make sure I’m ready for cardio.. I notice that once I start doing cardio, I take super long break to regain my breath..

So for now, I’m focusing on doing crunches, reptiles, squats and other sorta easy steps I copied from Carlystylez and Amanda Russell.. Managed to do some just now, but my tummy felt funny.. I think it was my dinner.. I puked a bit just now and felt a little better.. I hope it’s a one of thing..

So peeps, I’ll be updating my journey for my run (or jog) here.. Let’s see how this 2012 challenge of mine turn out in the end.. Support me?
