My class ended much earlier than expected today. Finally got the chance to hit the gym.

Did a super deloading full-body workout today. Did at least one workout for most of the major muscle groups at 1-2 sets each with moderately heavy weight x 12 reps per set, with 60-80 seconds rest in between each sets.

Workout will resume to normal on next Monday, after my Terengganu trip.

And me loving to work out my chest, I did two workouts for chest instead of only one.

Slightly more than a week ago, on May 6, my measurements were 73.7kg with 13.1% BF.

Today, I measured myself again right before I left, and the digital scale read 75.6kg with 14.0% BF.

Damn happy!

But too bad the machine is not very accurate and its not very consistent either, so the measurement might have been wrong.

I don't bring milk to the gym. I live nearby so its convenient for me to drink milk at home, without having to bring anything with me to the gym other than my water bottle and wallet.

The MyFitness I go to is in Sri petaling Endah Parade... Quite good IMO. No complaints from me thus far, everything's in shape. For students like me its RM107 per month (inclusive of joining fee) for a one-year contract. If you pay by cash you'll have to pay everything in one go.

They have a machine there that measures weight and BF. Its in the drawer so just request one of the staff there to take it out for you Its not very consistent though... And I think its not very accurate either.


LOL brooo! Long time no see! Your name is potato but your avatar is that of a banana

I jsut got back from holiday in Kijal, Terengganu... My friends say I look hgue and buff but I feel damn guilty because I know I am far from what they say I am. However I am pleased with my chest's progress in the past 2 weeks. Somehow incorporating short periods of cardio at the end of my workouts seem to be helping. I don't know, it might be that or it might not be. It could be due to my increased milk intake too, I can't really say for sure.

Speaking of milk... In Terengganu I rely heavily on milk as my protein source. No choice...

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!! As if it isn't bad enough that my strength has been stalling, now its beginning to drop! Feeling damn weak today. Did a total of only 12 sets instead of the usual 16.

Supposed to hit the gym yesterday but I felt feverish, so I popped some panadols and went to bed instead.

Anyway exams are drawing very close. I will probably be slacking in my workouts over the next few weeks, or probably even skip it in its entirety. But after my exams are over, I will have 3 full weeks to concentrate on building up from where I left off.

Today's breakfast was kinda cincai. Haha. So was my preworkout, actually... >.<

Aiyo, cilakak lor... I waited 15mins just for the PT and his trainee to finish hogging the cable pull machine...

Somehow doing the cable machine pulldowns instead of the fixed position machine is harder to do... Can't go as heavy. And I don't know if my form is right or not because I don't feel as much burn on my lats.

Completely forgot to do the shrugs today, so I'll just do it on arms day.

Diet is not too good either. Appetite seems to be decreasing, probably because I'm not feeling too well. Slight flu and sore throat. Hopefully appetite will recover soon.

And damn, I should've went for an extra min on the treadmill.

Shoulders today. Right wrist felt damn weird and kinda painful when doing the lateral raises, which is why I couldn't complete the last set. As for the reverse flyes... Did less one set than usual because was running late + felt a bit lazy xD

Ran out of milk today and forgot to go out and buy. Spent my time in front of com reading Rurouni Kenshin all over again LOL. Damn, at a time when I'm supposed to be studying like mad...

Felt like puking after 3rd set of squats. Spent a few minutes deciding whether to push it or to give it up. I decided to give it up and move on to leg curls, which IMO was a good decision. I rested for almost 10mins before hitting the curls. I think from now onwards I should jsut stick to doing 3 sets of squats instead of the killer 4. And yes, my quad strength dropped. Boooo...

On top.. then reverse wrist curl I do with thumb at the bottom.

I don't know what's the difference also. LOL! Works different parts of the forearms I guess? Here's the link that illustrates the two versions of the wrist curls:

Did 60 lbs for 3 sets because DL said to progress in weights, you first have to at least manage 3 sets x 10 reps for a particular weight. I failed. But anyway, the next jump is 70lbs (there's no 65lbs DBs here) so it'll be quit tough on me.

Form for smith press not too good, some reps didn't go low enough.

Right shoulder felt b****y throughout the workout. Something's not right.

In a hurry to go off now. Chao!

Had a dull stomachache after lunch, which persisted throughout the workout until now even. Kinda ruins the workout mood.

Anyway it was a bad workout day today. Felt weak. Also, form was off for the first three sets of rows, wasn't using much of my back muscles.

Halfway through the pulldowns, felt slightly nauseous. Not as bad as if I were to do squats, but bad enough to demotivate me. Went to do some light cycling for 10mins to chill before resuming my workout (but was very weak after that, aih). Did 2 sets of half-assed shrugs (light weight, but good form) to end the session. I don't think I'll be having an Arms day so I suppose I won't be doing any proper shrugs for this week.

Was a good workout day today. Haha I didn't realize it but I was doing the exact same weight and reps as I did in the last shoulder workout, for almost all the sets. Except this time, I did an extra set on the machine.

Exams begin in two days' time, so I most probably am not gonna hit the gym tomorrow. But if by chance I somehow decide to go, it'll probably be a half-assed workout on legs and arms day with some shrugs and wrist curls and abs thrown in.

My exams are finally over. Its been what, more than a week since I last hit the gym, and more than two weeks since I did legs or arms workout.

Now that my exams are over I will have 3 full weeks to myself, I hope I'll be able to make good use of it.

Did chest today. Was contemplating on doing either chest or starting with arms/legs (since I haven't done them in a really long time), but decided to go for chest and follow up with my usual routine of back, shoulder, legs then arms.

Instead of the usual 12 compound and 4 isolations, I did 8 compounds and 11 isolations today. Spur of the moment kinda thing... And the isolations I did them in supersets with 70 secs rest in between each set. Incline, normal, incline, normal, etc.

Form for DB flyes was a bit off. So right at the end of the workout I tried something else. I did the cable crossovers with the cables positioned at about slightly above knee level, and my fists met at the level of my head (maybe slightly higher? but around there la). So I guess effectively, it was an incline cable crossover, and it was much harder to do than the normal crossovers. But form felt more 'correct' than incline DB flyes so I'm happy about that

Gonna have a late dinner later tonight, maybe at 8.30-9.00 since I just had milk for postworkout.

Was a good workout today. Form was tip-top. Tried pulldowns with supinated grip for the first time and I must say it is AWESOME! Form was more in place as it was more 'natural' to execute IMO. I've been missing out on it all this while... But better late than never.

Planned to do one-arm DB rows but in the end saw this cable thing with a bar for you to grip, so I did one-arm cable rows instead. Somehow even at 40 kg it felt surprisingly easy to do, could have went for more reps/weight but decided to keep it fun and simple.

Wanted to do 5 mins cardio, but into the second minute I started having a side stitch attack. It was excruciating and I had no choice but to stop.

its been a longgggggg time since I last did leg workouts. Decided to push myself today with the squats. As decided earlier, I did only 3 sets instead of 4. I'm going to stop at 3 sets from now onwards due to the nausea it gives me. Cost vs benefit analysis, my friend.

Surprisingly my strength did not drop much. Or maybe its just because I'm forcing myself to go the heaviest I can. Was grunting like a pig, damn loud, with every push. But I was too busy squatting to have the time to feel embarrassed.

Should have gone heavier on the extensions, damn.

Felt bloated after lunch. Feeling the same even now. Hence the lower intake on preworkout. Bad feeling, damn.

9 compounds and 10 isolations today. Did an extra compound because the 4th set for incline press was slightly off form. There were one or two other reps which were off form as well, didn't go low enough.

2nd set of smith flat press could have went for 10 reps, but somehow my right shoulder area was aching and it distracted me quite badly.

Original plan was to hit 70 lbs next week, but at the rate I am improving, it might not be possible. But I might still go ahead and try the 70s anyway, I might be able to pull off 6-7 reps if I'm lucky.

Btw was supposed to start workout yesterday, but I pushed it one day forward to today because of futsal. It was worth it. Side effects of futsal :

Eh shit. My strength like dropped la, compared to last week. Weird.

And my chest didn't feel sore from yesterday's workout. That's even weirder. Maybe its because I'm stalling in poundages, so my muscles get used to it already. In fact, I'm stalling for all my exercises, chest, back, arms, shoulders... Damn!

I need to bump up my diet somehow

Yeah baby. Strength didn't improve much from last week, but today I finally moved on to 50lbs x 9. I hope from now on I'll be able to pick up from where I stalled.

Hoping can break the stall for chest next week as well. It sucks that the dumbbells only come in increments of 10lbs after 60lbs though, ie 70 lbs, 80 lbs, etc. =\
