I can only do 30 sit ups in a minute. This is abit disappointing for me as the goal is to reach 60 per minute. I was thinking of increasing my weight for my concentrated arm curl to 13kgs but then I started doing it slower which really stresses my biceps, which is recommended by some health magazine to do arm curls. Other than that, I wish to do more of everything, especially sit ups and crunches.

All in all, I've been working out consistently with no breaks lasting longer than a day. I sure hope I can keep this up and that the upcoming trip will not phase me out of this regime as I *think* is actually working.

All was well until I discovered...

Crunches. Yes, I thought I was king until I talked to Vernessa, aka "sis". Apparently my 135 record means crap. I gotta do at the very least 50 sit ups per minute. And I have to do crunches to work the lower abs better. Which I started after getting instructions from her. Now, according to her, it would hurt like crazy when doing it. But when I did it, it was tiring and that's it. My abs didn't feel like it was on fire or anything....till I did sit ups right after. Now THAT just killed me. I was laying there with my abs kicking the living daylights outa me. I messaged sis about it and she said, "Keep at it! Its worth it!". Plus, we made a bet on it to keep working out until she got back from Singapore. Whoever stops, gets to buy the other an expensive dinner. It is ON sis! Talk about great motivation.

So I'm sitting here now, with my abs aching a little, thinking what else to write on here. Oh, I recently got to know my work neighbours a little better. The creepy dude at the massage centre, and the people from 3! The creepy dude ain't so creepy when he smiles, and 3 people are much fun!

And it seems that blog is transforming into a work out blog. Well, its kinda good for myself I guess. At least I'm keep track of my progress. I really can't wait till everything pays off. I've started eating steak (one which I hope to eat more of) cause I want more protein to build muscles and am going on a dairy diet as well cause apparently, dairy helps you burn more fat than muscle! I won't go on protein shakes or anything like that though, makes me bulk up like crazy. Not something I want. Right not, THE main goal is to lose my tummy, and be replaced with awesome abs, hopefully by summer? I've implanted in myself that its about time I do something about my weight and damnit I will! One step at a time.
