My gym journey

  • Gym done for the day. Yay I’m feeling good.

    Had a great gym sesh this morning. I’m feeling great and I’m only a little sore from muscle exertion. Started with a warm up of 10 minutes on the cycle to get the muscles warmed up. Then moved to the bed where I did 50 sit-ups. 20 leg raises (that’s a hard one for the…

  • The importance of drinking water at gym

    Water is more than just an excuse to stop and catch your breath while you exercise. Medline Plus calls water the most overlooked but necessary nutrient for athletes.

  • Eggs: a superfood or not

    There’s a lot…..and I mean a lot of articles out there stating that eggs are bad for you, but then again there are a lot stating the otherwise. They’re good for you. Me, in my journey, I’ve read that yes they have cholesterol, OMG the dreaded “C” word. But hold up, not all cholesterol is…

  • Official rest day

    Well today is an official rest day. Not that I went to gym yesterday but that’s ok, I still worked out to a degree. Yesterday I did some dead-lifts, bicep curls, crunches, sit ups and I got in about 7200 steps. Not bad for a day off. Nothing beats the feeling of really working those…

  • No gym today (unfortunately)

    Alright I’m not perfect, I said it. I’m not going to the gym today (I should have gone but nah , but there’s reasons) You see, I go the gym with my dad and can’t always go because sometimes I don’t feel up for it and nor does he. We live quite a good distance…

  • Importance of step count.

    I read once that getting the appropriate amount of steps in during the day is super important to not only a fitness journey, but also things like weight loss, and even to your mental happiness. I personally aim to achieve about 10 000 steps a day. I think that’s a healthy number. Notice I said…

  • Rest days

    Today’s a rest day which I have every Tuesday and Thursday as well as weekends. Well I say a rest day loosely cause I do still exercise, but from home and don’t go as hard. Like only really some dit ups and maybe a couple push ups, but no real cardio. Unless I’m building, let…

  • Todays gym sesh

    Today I had a really good gym workout. You see the personal trainer I have (or should I say biokineticist which is the correct name) is the same age as me so he and I really get on well. We give each other all sorts of friendly banter and I often tease him. But no…
