Inspired by my housemate’s Ninie’s new food blog, I’ve decided to start noting down what I eat on a daily basis. Nah, on second thoughts, I’ll only note down what I eat on days that I do work out.

I’ve been eating a lot lately and on certain days, I struggle through some of the workouts whenever I’ve overeaten (d-uh). With this new addition of including food intake into my fitness posts, it’ll be interesting to see what sorta food combo works best for me.

Brunch: Tuna sandwich with lettuce, capsicum and tomatoes. Potato wedges on the side and packet soy milk. 2 pieces of Tim Tams :D
Dinner: Nando’s quarter chicken meal, coleslaw and rice sidelines and 100Plus. Tall soy latte with double shots.

Wasn’t too hungry or too full when I got to Pushmore. But I did have sore biceps from yesterday’s workout, whenever I straightened my arms I could feel my biceps ‘tightening’. Must’ve been from the pull ups in yesterday’s workout.

100 Sit Ups
Result 2:56
Did this before I did today’s workout (below). Hmm…maybe I should incorporate this into my daily warm-ups.

Tabata Mash-Up: Squats & Push Ups
Do 8 rounds for max reps of:
20 seconds Squats
10 seconds Rest
20 seconds Push Ups
10 seconds Rest
Results:
SQ 21 21 21 18 23 23 21 20
PU 27 25 23 20 16 15 12 15
Total 321

Was farkin surprised that I managed to do more than 300 reps. Wahahahaha! Must be the fact that I didn’t binge today. What a big difference eating healthy makes! It’s the first time I’ve ever done tabata of squats and push ups. The squats were okay, but towards the 5th set, my left knee started ‘cricking’ and my push ups were getting wobbly. That being said, I love doing tabata workouts because it feels like one has put in a good workout within a short period of time.

21 – 15 – 9 of HSPU, Ring Dips and Push Ups
Result 18:48

Yay! A bit faster than my previous time of 20:06 on 010709. My HSPU are a bit better now in the sense that I can go further down but I still need to work on my ring dips as I still can’t do a full dip whenever I go past the 3rd rep. Fail dot com dot my.

And my friend Daniel Henry joined me for a trial workout at Pushmore today. Thanks for coming to try it out :D Nice catching up with you again!

Okay, that’s it for todays’ workout. Back to work :D
