My thoughts:
Back on the program! rclxms.gif
I decided to go for bodyattack for lunch...i felt guilty for my half past 6 morning cardio.
I am repeating routine from 2 days ago to try and get a hang of it. I think i need to lift heavier...I dont feel sore...maybe tommorow i'll feel it. I intend on doing this routine before movin on to legs and other muscle group so that i wont confuse myself. flex.gif
I met Syd, she is nice. rclxms.gif

You are doing so great!!!  rclxms.gif Don't care what people may/may not think at the gym - it's probably not as bad as you've made out in your head. Keep it up!

isn't the soft shell crab in soft shell crab temaki fried? but taken in moderation (ie once a while in a week) should be ok la...  biggrin.gif can't cut everything out completely in one shot.. can go crazy...

bout the weight liftings, it helps to get an idea of the movement from videos, but maybe you wanna read up on the form as well so you can know what to actually look out for when watching the videos. Congratulations on starting your weight training programme  biggrin.gif Keep up the good work!

It didnt occur to me that its friend until you mentioned it. Mental note to self: more softshell temaki!

Yeah i watched and read up on the moved. Trying to get the hang of it. The bent down laterals felt really weird, so i changed them to lateral raises.

bent down laterals works on rear shoulder while side lateral raise work on side shoulder.
why weird? try with the lightest weight to get the "feel" of bent down laterals.

i prefer to perform in this way, it is much easier  biggrin.gif
Thanks for the alternative. Will try this out the next time i do this routine. Do you rest your head on bench when you do this?

I feel fat from all the fatty Chinese food from my parents restraurant. I didn't get much exercise in the past few days. All i did was some house cleaning and spent 5 hours shopping on day 13th. I am gonna try and get back into my routine for the next two days, before heading of to US for a couple of days.

I will not be on a diet in the US and I am prepared to pack on some weight tongue.gif

With regards to supplements, i doubt i will have the time to do much shopping but if there is something you really want which you can't get in malaysia, drop me a PM and i will try my best to accomadate. I would prefer not to bring back anything which may be restricted by customs.

Right, so I went to the US and came back for a couple of days before shooting of to Penang for work. I gained a cool 3kgs in the process but have managed to lose 2kgs in the past week, thankfully! But still a net gain of 1KG than before i started this journal. doh.gif

The past week has been a good week, diet and exercise wise, and I did a fair share of cardio and weights to help me get back in shape.

I feel pretty good and fit, so i am not gonna be too hard on myself.

Yeah so anyway I am back and am gonna start updating again on Monday.
