Day 22
Monday morning was a write off! After a good session on Saturday and some serious sun caught i was looking forward to my day off on sunday. We went down to sentosa and i went on the wave machine for an hour! it really hurt my already tired legs! It was fun though... i got really burnt in the two hours we were there although its now browned off a lot... we went to bas's house at 1am to watch the footy and i didn t get to sleep till 6am so Monday didnt rally happen for me!. I did go to boxing training at 6pm but my heart wasnt in it although i did get into right at the end!
I hope tuesday is better in the gym!

Sun Sun Sun
Day 17
Used my lunchtime session today to get some sun as i have a long hard one tonight.
Did 2 km in 10 min ,my pullups, skipping and pushups then headed into the pool for 45 min and caught some serious rays. It was so hot that you could see those waves on the floor and people were burning thier feet on the wooden decking! Im not really going brown fast but at least im no longer blue!!!
I've eaten really well over the last three days and feel really good! Looking forward to a hardcore session tonight and really working those arms out!
Hope to have some good news tomorrow and looking forward to the weekend....

Feeling good again!
Day 16
Its amazing what a couple of sessions can do. Monday morning came about, i had been naughty and the world looked grey. Tuesday afternoon and i have a big fat smile on my face!
Yesterday i went and did my normal light session. Only thing that was different was i'm now doing 6 pull ups instead of 5 , 50 situps instead of 45 and 25 pushups instead of 20...(3 sets) After my swim i laid by the pool for a while and caught some rays.
Boxing was really hard yesterday! We did our normal warm-up and cracked straight on with shadow boxing,pad and bag work. Cas i had turned up just after 5pm and hit the speed bag for 45min my arms were a bit weak. Something that my coach really noticed and told me to stop hitting like a girl! I would have loved to, apart from i thought my left arm was just about to fall off! But i got through it and we did a coulpe of burppies sets and the dreaded plank. I really looked as though i had just been swimming! I was drenched! Just before i went to the shower i did my 2 sets of pull ups that im determined to get up to 10 by the end of this! the pull ups at the end really hurt and they are a struggle but hopefully the more i do them the easier it will get!
I headed home and the wife had cooked me chicken breast and veg! OFF THE HOOK BTW!
My sleep patterns have been really shit lately! I seem to have real insomnia.. Its like i cant find the off switch. I just lay there and nothing happens. Im not quite sure why this is as i should be really tired. Its not helping during the day as my eyes feel really heavy at work but by the time i get home im fully awake! its starting to annoy me!'
The gym was good today ! 3 sets of 5 pull ups. skipping+situps+pushups(1min,50,25) times 4....
Really working those arms! Then into the pool for 20 lengths. did it in 13min. 0.5 km in 13min. is that good? i wasnt really going fast. i did 10 breast-stroke and 10 crawl. Then got some more sun! Im starting to actually get a bit of colour which is making me looked more defined. NICE:) Just need to lose this bloody stomach! Im gonna do it if it kills me!
Stats after 2 weeks i took yesterday:
Weight: 79.1 kg
Stomache: 35 inc
Waist : 33 inc
Bum : 37 inc (minus2:)
Thigh: 18 inc
bicep :11.5 inc all rounded up:)p
Looking forward to boxing tomorrow already! Tonight is date night! hmmmmmm popcorn and toystory 3!!!! sweet!

Nowhere to hide!
Day 15
After a great Saturday morning boxing session i was feeling good. My shoulders were burning from the boxing, but apart from that i felt good! Miles and cat were having a wet the poo monsters head party at 2pm and keryn and i were going to pop by for a bit and i had said to myself to not drink! Its really starting to annoy me now that i cant do a simple thing like not drink. None, nada, null, nichts.... it just doesnt exist! im incapable of lasting a week! i probably had a bottle and a half of red wine, which in itself is not that bad, but i woke up the next morning with a hangover and just feeling shit all day. I went on this journey for a couple of reasons. One of which was to stop drinking. I'm getting to the point where im so fed up of the day after that im not enjoying drinking anymore! but still i persist in getting drunk. Coupled with the fact that my wife cant drink and gets very jealous and has a go at me for three days doesnt help either. Lets face it i have been known to act like a penis on rare occasions and if you dont put yourself in those situations you cant do anything wrong. So to be so inept and not follow through with this properly is starting to get on my tits. I'll tell you what it is. I feel so good and well after a weeks training that i feel the need to counter balance it with feeling like shit! im never happy unless i have something to maon about! That and if you dont drink in Singapore there really is nothing else to do! I mean really nothing else to do! Especially when all your friends are piss-heads:) come on you know you are! I could just gloss over these indiscretions, or not write them in here. But i think that would defeat the object and plus there is nowhere i can hide. If i lie about one thing you might think im lying about the training and then this blog becomes pointless!
Anyway 5 days now of pure hardcore training on the horizon. Starting at 12 today. light session as i have boxing at 5 till 7.30..... The sun is shining so after my run, situps and pullups i might catch some rays by the pool....
See you tomorrow, hopefully i'll have forgiven myself by then and i'll be in a better mood!
peace x

What a gym session!
Day 12
I'm not being funny. No really im not! But todays session was the bomb diggity snop d o double g tastic get in there my son sesch!
45 min on the treadmill on 2.5% gradient.. (15min on 10km/h,15min on 11km/h and 15min 12.5... 3 sets of pull ups! 3 burppies sets-you know the drill and 10 lengths of the pool! Then i went into the steamroom and sweated the evil out!
Now that is a sesch... Really feel good aswell. Dont feel tired and in pain. Sweet! And to top it off there is about 3 more hours of work to go and then its the weekend! Although to be fair the weekend is not what it was as i cant drink! (now i know how my lovely wife feels!) it is hard work and i really admire her for going 6 months without getting pissed or smoking... ! I hope i have the strength to get through the rest of this without drinking either. The smoking is easy. I've never really smoked anyway went i havent had a drink in the other hand. So giving up wasnt hard. But i must admit that i still get the urge every now and again. But then i think to myself that if i have one i will have another one and then im back where i started! And lets face it i havent just worked my arse off in the gym to just go and mess myself up! I feel so strong and quick atm. Why would i want to jeopardize that for a cig! i mean really! You know im actually getting quite stubborn about this now. The drinking and smoking. And as anybody who know me knows when i get something in my head...... ill do it just to prove people wrong! People who think that im not capable of going 3 months without it! ill go 6 just to say i can and prove you wrong! Just like the people who ask me why im doing this!
Boxing tomorrow, rest on Sunday with a well deserved sleep in! (tried to spell ly in but nobody knows how to spell it!!! lol!
Have a good week peeps! Ps press follow on the right side please if you already havent!

Football today yeah!!
Day 11
The gym last nght was fun. As the sessions wizz past we are upping the pace. Longer punchout times on the bag, faster sets, more reps..ect..... Maybe on days where i have boxing training its not a good idea to go to the gym at lunch, or maybe thats what is going to give me the edge come sept 17th. I will be really stessed if i lose and will never live it down@! This is one of the main reasons im kinda going hammer and tonges at this training atm... Every day when i get home i'm so tired. Not i feel tired, i mean i literally cant keep my eyes open and i fall asleep where ever i sit down! I've managed to not eat anything past 9pm for the last week and im not sure what that is doing to me. I dont know if its a good thing or not. I mean i have lost weight, but that is to do with the training im sure. One thing im def. realizing is how much energy is in certain foods. salad and fruit cant get you though the day im telling you that. And if there is no energy in the tank the training is pointless! underpowered and lackluster if you dont eat properly!
So boxing yesterday was good as i said and gym at lunch today had to be skipped as i went for a team lunch. We went to carnivore and i ate a lot of meat and veg no sauce ... it was good and some good protein taken on board!
Football at night and a full game played! Unfortunately i only played in goal but got quite a lot of situps and pushups in while the ball was down the other end!lol we won 5-1 and i make some good saves! the only bad thing was christer not listening and playing a blind pass back to me and scoring an own goal to mess up my clean sheet! hahhahaahaha must admit it was funny!
Gonna rinse it tomorrow in the gym! Feel a big one coming on! Peace...
