Work Day Light Weight Gym Session 30/05/2008
Just another day but first let me record some unorthodox light cardiovascular sessions that I do everyday thanks to long distance between carpark and my office.
Thursday, Medium Cardio Session 29/05/2008
30 mins walk from carpark to office and vice versa, carrying 3kg worth of stuff.

These week, I went back almost 9 pm to 10 pm everyday. Looks like it is going to get worse before it gets better. After 2 days rest from my previous gym session on Tuesday, I am now feeling fresh. However, I decided to do a light weight session anyways.
My workout routine as follows:
5 mins on rowing machine @ effort level = 10
Barbell Benchpress:
2x10 @ 60kg
1x10 @ 70kg
1x10 @ 65kg
Pullover:
1x10 @ 25kg
1x10 @ 27.27kg
1x10 @ 29.54kg
1x10 @ 31.81kg
Dumbbell bicep curls:
2(2x10) @ 13.63kg per arm, total = 27.27kg
2(2x10) @ 11.36kg per arm, total = 22.72kg
Lever incline row:
3x10 @ 25kg
1x10 @ 20kg
Deadlifts:
1x10 @ 32.5kg
2x10 @ 52.5kg
1x10 @ 62.5kg
Dumbbells row:
1(2x10) @ 22.72kg per arm, total = 45.45kg
* I was too tired to do another 3 sets of dumbbell rows, so I decided to do some HIIT cardio anyways.
3x5 mins on treadmill @ 9.0 kmph
3x5 mins on treadmill @ 6.5 kmph
1x2 mins on treadmill @ 4.5 kmph
* Resulted in 3.7 km ran / walked and 300 calories burned.
25 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 8
* Resulted in 1.0km walked and 220 calories burned.
Total calories burned for the day = 720 calories
It was one of the busier weeks, definitely not going to see the end of it. I believed I have done a decent workout but with lighter than usual weights just to switch the routine a little. I hope I can have another gym session on Sunday though. Reason being, I will be very busy the whole of next week.
* PS I will be purchasing another 5lbs of ON whey protein of chocolate flavour, yum.....

Work Day Light Weight Gym Session 27/05/2008
Work Day Light Weight Gym Session 27/05/2008
Again, I have to record some unconventional light cardiovascular sessions that I do everyday thanks to long distance between carpark and my office.
Monday, Light Cardio Session 26/05/2008
15 mins walked from carpark to office, carrying 3kg worth of stuff.
* Resulted in calories burned = 120 calories burned (estimated)
Tuesday, Light Cardio Session 27/05/2008
15 mins walked from carpark to office, carrying 3kg worth of stuff.
* Resulted in calories burned = 120 calories burned (estimated)
And now I present you my workout routine for the day. I arrived at the Damansara Uptown Gym at 6:15 pm and got off about 8:45 pm. Total time spent in gym = 2 hours and 30 mins. I had to hit the gym today because I have been absent from the gym almost for a full week. (ie. if I delay this session to Wednesday)
I keep getting pestered by the Personal Trainer over there. I really wish I could just concentrate on my work out at times. I know it isn't perfect but at least I enjoy doing it. I don't see a point to continuously do exercises I dislike just for the sake of it.
My workout routine of the day are as follows:
5 mins of rowing machine @ effort level = 10
*Resulted in about 45 calories burned.
Standing barbell shoulder press (olympic style):
2x10 @ 32.5kg
1x10 @ 37.5kg
1x8 @ 42.5kg
Standing barbell bicep curls:
1x10 @ 18.18kg
3x10 @ 22.72kg
Skullcrushers:
4x10 @ 22.72kg
Dumbbells flat benchpress:
2x10 @ 27.27kg per arm, total = 54 .54kg
1x10 @ 25kg per arm, total = 50kg
1x10 @ 31.81kg per arm, total = 63.63kg
Calf rise (machine):
1x10 @ 30kg
1x10 @ 55kg
2x10 @ 35kg
* I have no idea how to use this machine properly, thankfully someone (Of european ethic) showed me how to.
Shoulder dumbbells fliers:
1x10 @ 2.27kg per arm, total = 4.54kg
1x10 @ 4.54kg per arm, total = 9.08kg
2x10 @ 6.81kg per arm, total = 13.63kg
Woodchopper (inverse):
2 (2x10) @ 10 kg per arm, total = 20kg
2 (2x10) @ 12.5 kg per arm, total = 25kg
10 mins on stepper @ effort level = 10
21 mins on stepper @ effort level = 8
* Resulted in 180 floors climbed and 320 calories burned (I did this in good form, ie. no lying on the bar and it seems to be a lot more difficult than expected)
30 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 8
2 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 4
* Resulted in 1.2 km walked and 260 calories burned.
Total calories burned (including morning walk and rowing) = 745 calories burned
I would say that this gym session is actually very light weight. Nonetheless, I think I am spent at the moment. I hope to hit the gym on Thursday at the very least. Tomorrow seems to be a bit far fetch for me.

Work Days Non Gym Sessions 12/05/2008 to 16/05/2008
Work Days Non Gym Sessions 12/05/2008 to 16/05/2008
This week, I have decided to take a one week rest from gym. After undertaking Lipo6 for the 2 weeks. My body was overstimulated and I could not relax my mind nor my body at most days. I also have half a bottle of Lipo6 tablets to go. From now onwards I will no longer take the recommended dosage (ie. 4 tablets per day) Instead I will take one or two tablets per day max just to finish the remaining tablets.
Due to my hectic work and lotsa uncertainty at times, I have decided no longer to update my workout journal in Low Yat Net forums nor participate in the discussion in Health and Fitness, Hardware and Games in that particular forum as well. This is to enable me to concerntrate in updating my blog, work and living my life.
Thanks to the distance between carpark and my office, I am able to pull a light cardio session every morning and most evenings.

hotel and the other way round.
Moving and rearranging boxes and folders into cabinets
60 mins carrying boxes ranging from 20-30kg, folder ranging from 1kg to 2.5kg max.
* Resulted in ???? calories burned and 26 boxes moved out of the way.
Walking in 1Utama to buy books (Lat Comics) and some brisk walks
25 mins walked around Coffee Bean's area, MPH area and etc
* Resulted in calories = ???? burned, distance walked (difficult to estimate), back to office from 1Utama new wing.

Although I did not hit the gym from Monday to Friday, I feel that I have somewhat done some very decent cardio sessions and by that, I probably just rest till next Tuesday to hit the gym again.
Cheers

Weekend (Light Cardio Session) 10/05/2008
Weekend (Light Cardio Session) 10/05/2008
Late evening today, I walked my dog in the playground. There seems to be a lot on mine in regards to my fitness level, work and friends. My fitness level have been going up and down (the down is really getting to me). My job is getting complicated by the day as I was handling quite a number of clients. A few of my good friends have migrated to Dubai and most likely won't come back to Malaysia for good. I have left the Manulife Fitness First gym and find it difficult to keep in touch with my old gym buddies as well.
I believe I need sometime to clear my mind therefore I am going to walked my dog more often.
Anyway the stats for my light cardiovascular session for the day as follows:
30 mins walking the dog
* Resulted in = ???? calories burned and about 1.3 km walked.
**Please note that tomorrow is Mother's Day, don't forget to wish someone that alright?

Today, that is Friday, I finally had the chance hit the gym for the first time I have moved to the new office. I arrived at Damansara Uptown Fitness First Gym at 6:30 pm and got off about 9:00pm, total time spent in the gym = 2 hours 30 mins
My workout routines are as follows:
5 mins on rowing machine @ effort level = 10
Flat Benchpress:
2x10 @ 60kg
1x10 @ 80kg
1x10 @ 70kg
* Didn't feel strong today, just did a lighter weight that usual.
Pullover:
4x10 @ 34.09kg
Pendley Rows:
1x10 @ 32.5kg
1x10 @ 42.5kg
2x10 @ 52.5kg
* Pretty tired from doing this though.
Squats:
2x10 @ 70kg
2x10 @ 90kg
* Definitely a lacklustre performance for the squats today, oh well.
Dumbbell bicep curls:
1 (2x10) @ 13.36kg per arm, total = 27.27kg
2 (2x10) @ 15.09kg per arm, total = 30.18kg
1 (2x10) @ 18.18kg per arm, total = 36.36kg
Skullcrushers:
1x10 @ 22.5kg
2x10 @ 27.5kg
1x10 @ 30.0kg
* After this exercise, I was totally exhausted and unable to lift any more weights.
30 mins on stepper @ effort level = 13
1 min on stepper @ effort level = 10 (cool down)
* Resulted in 390 calories burned and 197 floors climbed.
5 mins on treadmill @ 7.0 kmph and gradient = 5%
20 mins on treadmill @ 6.5 kmph and gradient = 5%
5 mins on treadmill @ 6.5 kmph and gradient = 0%
2 mins on treadmill @ 5.0 kmph and gradient = 0%
* Resulted in 240 calories burned and 2.7-2.8 km walked (rough estimate)
Total calories burned = 630 calories
All in all, a decent workout for the entire week. I must push for another session of gym this weekend no matter what. I would like to comment that Damansara Uptown Fitness First Gym may not have the best equipments but there aren't many people who does free weights or fixed weights for that matter. Therefore, I had almost the entire free weights area for myself.
However, I still do miss the Manulife Fitness First where I have met many friends (from staff and regular gym goers) during my one year tenure over there. I may return once in awhile on the weekend though.
First of all, I would like to record some of the light cardiovascular sessions that I do almost every morning since the first day my company has moved to OneWorld Hotel. With the exception of Wednesday that is 07/05/2008, whereby I was sick from a terrible stomachache (due to excess wind in the stomach).
