Today I did get to work out with Macaquinho.
Most of it was upper strength. Lots of push-ups.
This and awesome sunny bike rides.
Awesome.
Later!

May 25th.
I still haven't followed my regular workouts in a while. Work drains me.
However, I still try to do useful stuff with the warm weather.
I ride every day.
To work, back home, back out, back home.
I shall start working out soon, hopefully this week.
I might get back to class this week.
However, like I said, I still need time.

May 14th
I just finished today's whole body workout.
I tried doing it in the morning, however I felt in pain for it.
So I went to work and then I rode for a while.
Now that I got home I realized my right shoulder was hurting, and the only thing I had done before other than biking was dive bomber pushups, and realized that something must have been wrong.
So I did my research, and THIS is how you do a dive bomber pushup.
I did it with my busted shoulder and it doesn't hurt.
So, note to self: change the dive bomber pushup into that.
Other than that I did some deadlifts, lateral dumbell raises, and some dumbell flies, this in addition to my whole body workout.
I feel good about today.

Last night, I left everything forlast minute.
I did my ab/back workout right before going to sleep.
Today it should be nice out, so I might top today's full body workout with a bike ride after work.
Bye!

Hi!
Yesterday I forgot to update the blog. I did my full body workout, the one with the squats and leglifts. I passed on the burpees. However, I added an extra set of pushups and some squats for it.
I also tried to work my chest. It's been sore for a while from doing so many chest exercises.
I think this is going well.
Today's workout should be abs. I will update this when I do it. Or if I forget, tomorrow.

Hey!
I haven't stopped working out on a regular basis.
Last night I did my Tuesday workout, the upper-muscle workout with the handstand pushups and the remaining tons of pushups.
I only finished 2 sets though. I had to take care of something.
Today I should do my full body workout. I'll update this after I'm done with it.

Monday, may 10th.,
I think today it's two weeks since I started.
Improvement isn't that visible. However, I feel it. I think it's great.
Today I did my usual Monday workout, except that I was upstairs and didn't want to piss my neighbours off, so I didn't do the jumping jacks.
In addition to that, I did some more ab-work and lifted some weights.
It seems like I'm doing fine!
I just have to get over the tired feeling of after-work.
I have to still work out regardless of me being tired from work.

Sunday, may 9th.
I hadn't worked out as much lately because finally i've gotten shifts at work, and that left me spent.
I managed to sneak in bikerides, or well, even going to work and back, plus whatever i could sneak in.
Today though, I got a text that gave me tons of motivation. It's nice when you know you aren't exactly alone in achieving your goals. It's nice when you know there's others that want you to achieve those goals.
Today I don't even know how much I worked out.
I know I did lateral dumbell raises, push ups, deadlifts, worked abs, worked more abs, then more lateral dumbell raises, and i don't know, it's been 44 minutes since I started working out. It's nice.

May 7th, well, May 6th late night.
I haven't left this blog behind.
I've been really busy. However I do get some time to get cardio done each day.
I think doing cardio exercises everyday will help a lot, even if I cannot complete my daily workouts.
Still, the goal is to do my cardio AND my workouts.

Sunday night!
It's fun to know that the warm weather helps me keep warm.
Just today we biked at 40kph on flat surface while rushing before a thunderstorm hit us. It was awesome. Then got a flat tire.
Again, bike rides are awesome cardio for me. This is because I actually like riding my bike.
Next thing I knew it's that it was 10:30pm and I was getting home.
I don't mean to brag, but nice work, me!

May 2nd. Sunday
Hey, tomorrow is gonna be one week since i started this crazy thing. I feel great. I feel the improvement.
I eat a lot less than I did before. It seems that the straight-apple days made me realize how much food intake I actually need.
I guess not eating much for some days will also shrink the size of your stomach too, right?
However it is, yeah, my food intake is smaller than before.
To celebrate tomorrow my one week of whatchyamagonnacallthis, i will get on the scale and post results.
Last time I got on that scale it said I was about 106 kilograms. That being about two hundred and twentysomething pounds.
This is on an inaccurate scale. I will use it for the purpose of this blog.
Heh this is the first time I've felt such a huge change in my body and in my personality.
I have tried to get stuff done. Documentation and work related stuff. And schoolwise. I finally found a program I like! I'm excited.
And I can't wait to get back to my capoeira class.
BUT YEAH okay, today's entry.
I thought Saturday and Sunday were gonna be my rest days, but nooooo, I knew I couldn't do that.
I just made an addition to the Macaquinho workout program. Today I did deadlifts. I aimed for 10 in a row. Then this was followed by a superset of 20 kick-outs. Then lateral dumbell raises followed by a superset of pushups. However, using the same dumbells.
Then after this i felt warmed up, so I did a little workout with two dumbell bars i found a loooong time ago along with all my weights and used them as kali sticks, and was working that basic sequence that we were taught.
It was fun.
OKAY i shall update this next time. Tomorrow. with numbers! DA DADA DAAAA

Hey guys, it's me again.
For today I might just do some cardio.
Bike around, run, whatever. It's all good.

Friday still.
I just got home from riding my bike and whatever. Mostly hanging out. It's fun.
If you like biking, it's a good form of exercise. I could ride for entire hours non-stop and really enjoy it.
