A wet wet Friday morning...

Yesterday morning was a wet wet morning... It was a challenge to wake up in such a cooling morning. Moreover it's Friday. Anyhow, i have no choice but to wake up early and hit the office for my last day of training.

When i walked out from my room, the first thing i did was to look out the KL city from my balcony...

Did you notice what is different in this picture?
Typical scene in KL when it's raining
Zoom version of the traffic jam
Since TZ is staying high up in the sky. He was able to do a survey on which route to go out from his condo was much more faster. 

Even though the traffic is slow moving in various part of KL. TZ still reached his office on time ;-)
Were you stuck in the traffic yesterday morning?

On having the PT session

What is PT session? Personal Torturing session? or Personal Training session?

I was given a free trial on the PT session recommended by Twilight Man. The moment has come on Friday night. I have all the preparation to undergoing the PT moment except....

Friend: you are going to be tortured tonight
Me: Huh? Don't think so...
Friend: You will know how i felt while being tortured.
Me: Are you sure? Is that so bad?
Friend: Later you will know...

The torturing training started on 8pm sharp...
Bosu Ball
picture from stayhealthystayhappy
  1. Squat jump on TRX - 15 reps 3 sets interchangeable with 1 mins on Vipr side way squart. The first and 2nd sets were okay for me but when came to the 3rd sets i was a bit struggling cause i couldn't feel my leg anymore.
  2. Lunges with a twist (holding the ball) for 2 sets. This is not tough but again it hit my legs. i finished all the sets with any struggling. Hey i'm strong eh~
  3. Pulling yourself up with TRX and interchangeable with the rowing machine. This exercise actually hit my back and i could feel it after the 20 reps of TRX pulling myself up. Followed by the rowing which need to finish 500m within 3 mins. But guess what? I finish in 2mins 20sec :p I felt tired after the two sets of workout. But still okay. 
  4. Push up on Bosu with hand holding two edge of the Bosu for 15 reps, followed by 15 reps legs on the Bosu and another 21 reps on two Bosu, the hand and the legs for 15 reps. Last but not least, one leg up so i only using 2 hands and a leg to support my body for the last 6 reps (each leg three reps). I completed all the exercise without missed. But i was way way struggling on getting oxygen after this exercise. Suddenly i felt my sugar level was low... 
  5. Abs exercises are not very difficult. plank pose on the Bosu for 1 mins followed by the plank pose on the Bosu with moving leg side to side for 1 mins. Last exercise of the day is the side plank pose with a twist for 10 reps.
  6. Stretching time... this is the moment i enjoy most. A hard workout ended with a nice stretch :)
It was super tired after the training as i was not fully prepared as i forgot to take something slightly heavier before the workout. So i have come across low sugar after exercise #4. The PT passed me a glass of COKE to rejuvenate. 

Anyway, the workout is superb and i'm considering whether should i go ahead of signing up for 30 torturing session training sessions. Or i should give myself sometime to try to build my 6 packs myself.

What do you think?

1:11

It's 1:11am SAT... what to write?

Roti Sai Mai - Ayutthaya specialty

When I travelled to Ayutthaya, our tour guide has asked the driver to pull over and got us the Ayutthaya's specialty dessert called Roti Sai Mai...

What is Roti Sai Mai? It's Thai-style candy floss or cotton candy which is wrapped in a sweet roti. This treat is a favorite of the Thais. I have recorded on how we ate Roti Sai Mai...




Next time if you have a chance to visit Ayutthaya, don't forget to get some Roti Sai Mai eh~

Free PT session

I was walking into the gym yesterday night. Bump into Twilight Man and his Personal Trainer (PT). So his PT was asking when i would like to sign up for PT session... "hmmm....errrrr.... " said me.

Then all of sudden, the PT offered me a free trial session. He quickly drag me over to the PT counter and pull his scheduler out and try to fit me into his session.

PT: How about Wednesday 8pm?
Me: I could not make it, i have a meeting.
PT: How about Thursday 7pm?
Me: I have training this two weeks and the training ended on 6pm. Might not be able to reach 1MK on time for training. 
Me: How about next Monday? 
PT: Monday too late... what about Friday?
Me: Friday i'm okay, how about 8pm? 
PT: Okay see you @ 8pm.

So, now i gotten a free trial PT session but of cause no obligation... Now, i'm thinking if i decided to sign up for PT session, I just don't know what is my target... request him to train me to have a 8 packs abs? and to have a nice arm? and nice back and chest? and ....

Anyway, I had PT few years back if you read my post about my PT sessions. Now really not sure whether should i get a PT?

Galactic Laser Tag @ Mid Valley - Team building

The company that i worked with has allocated quarterly team building budget. The first team building of this year we went Archery, then we went Paint Ball for the previous team building. So this round we went Laser Tag...

Last Friday was our teambuilding days. Few days before the Friday, i sent out a mail to all the counterpart around the world to inform on our offsite teambuilding. On Friday itself, we gathered @ Mid Valley just in front of Galactic Laser Tag @ Mid Valley.

We went up to the report counter straight after everyone was at gathering place. The process from reporting to playing the game took us about an hour. After the briefing, we were asked to choose a vest with the named on top. So I choose the vest with the name "VIKING"

Picture adapted from groupsmore.com
Anyway, we have signed up for playing two games. It was fun and we are running inside a gloomy and  dark room with just a bit of lights... With the lights on the vest and the gun... it's not difficult to spot your target.

Picture adapted from groupsmore.com
The mission for the first game is to kill each other i.e. individual... just to give ourselves familiarize with  the environment. Then followed by the 2nd mission which we are group into team. At the end of each mission, there is a score in the billboard... 

The score board for mission #2
Unfortunately i was assigned in Yellow Team... our team has the lowest score among the 4 teams and the fewer members among team too. Anyway, it's just for fun... 

It will be nice to have a blogger shoot and have fun one of these days. Anyone interested?

LOSE IT!

" This is not a ballroom dancing class " said the instructor.
This class was introduced recently in Fitness First and guess what? i have started to hit this class since the LOSE IT program claimed whoever took up the program will be able to lose weight. Is this effective... hmmm  so far i haven't see the result yet as i only attended two classes. Yesterday evening was my 2nd class. So what is LOSE IT!




Are you convince to join the class now? I have marked my calendar to join this class every Thursday @ Fitness First 1Mont Kiara. BTW, I'm yet to attend Dave's conducted class on LOSE IT!. I bet it will be even more fun if he is teaching.

Annoying Uncle's scream

I'm not sure why some people like to spoil the nice and enjoyable environment...

I was attending the Joe Lim's RPM class yesterday evening @ the Curve. There was this uncle who was screaming from track #1 to track #7. As the RPM class progress... and the track was getting harder. The scream was louder. So what he screams? He basically screaming "ah ah ah ... come on... yay~ yay~ Yes ... " hmmm... Is this sound like someone is having sex and scream for more? It's definitely annoying. Especially you were enjoying the music while working out in RPM.

Guess What? The uncle didn't put on the expected resistant in all the tracks. The track #7 which is mountain climb. Therefore the resistance must be high and you need double the strength to work on Track #7. The uncle was shouting and screaming for more with his signature scream... Yes! Yes! yay! ...

Since he was screaming like having sex, so not sure whether  he has organism after track #7 and cum in his pant. There is definitely none of my business, but I would say his scream was so soooooo soooo ANNOYING.

By the way, anyone in the class you attended, his/ her screaming for attention was so annoy? If you have met this scenario before please do share with us eh~

Salted Swimming Pool

I was @ the drinking station sipping the 100+ ... Suddenly i overheard the conversation about the pool which i think it's so funny


Member A: hey after the steps class, it's nice to go for a swim.
Member B: I went weeks before and tasted the water in the pool. It's so salty.
Member A: Eeee... that's why i don't want to go, those members after workout must have just jumped into the pool without taking any shower.
Member B : Agreed i saw a couple of them, they are so unhygienic.  No wonder the water tasted so salty.

I was laughing loud inside the moment i heard their conversation. How many peoples' sweat to make the pool water become salty... the two members obviously have no brain. Moreover, they didn't know that the pool in Fitness First Empire Gallery is actually the sea salt water which is good for skin. 

So i told this story to one of my friend who always swim in the pool... 
Me: You know what? there were two members saying that members in the gym always jump into the pool without showering after their workout. Therefore the sweat has made the water become salty. 
Friend: *Laughing out loud* must as well saying that members lazy to go to toilet to pee... and they just pee in the pool. Hence the pool is salty now.
Me: *Laughing*...

Anyway, please take note, the pool in FF Empire is a SEA SALT WATER POOL.

Feel Goood Run 2011 - Run like celebrity, run with celebrities...

I feel good ....

Me: You didn't tell me it's sponsor by Berita Harian and New Strait Times. I would not participate the run if i knew it was sponsor by these two newspaper. Does not feel good now.
Friend: hmmm.... I also don't know.
Me: Anyway, it's already registered...

I felt not so good the moment i found out the sponsors. Why? Cause this newspaper always report those sensitive issue and yet our lovely government always covered the truth. That's the reason this newspaper dare to publish all those none truth information... sigh~

Before the run - Still haven't woke up
Along the way there were so many people camwhoring... smile 1-2-3... *chit chat* I was walking / running alone. So no one to camwhore with...

Can you see Starbie?
Anyway, when i was passing by Starbie @ Central Point BU... I was so tempted to grab a drink from Starbie. But the competition has its own rules that i needed to abide. So i forgo my Starbie and continued to walk / run...

When i came across the board marked the final 2KM with the tag line "Don't Give Up!" Since when i gave up, i was just conserving my energy for the final 2KM run... TZ started to run again... Run TZ Run,
Last 2KM - Don't Give up Eh~
Finally i was @ the finish line and heard lots of people clapping and cheering for the runners when they arrived to the finish point... So i successfully completed my very first 7KM run... Since my stomach has already calling for food. immediately we headed over to Paparich inside One U for our breakfast.

TZ camwhore with his Medal *wink*
I managed to camwhore with my gold medal
So anyone want to know how the gold medal looks like ....

Picture from nevertheless-psst.blogspot.com
Today JULY 9th 2011. our lovely government told his citizen " You are grounded" so what exactly we as this lovely country citizen has done wrong? The nation just want to voice their concern and wanna to request some improvement on certain "in justice" system. But at the end, all of us got grounded. So, no more Malaysia Sales Carnival shopping in Bintang walk. No more drinking and chatting with friends in Pavilion... etc. No more gym @ Fitness First.

Anyway, we as the KL people are grounded at home. So can we pronounce KL in curfew state? People from outside this lovely country what do you think?

PS: if you want to know more what actually happen in this lovely country... please visit Malaysiakini, The Star online, New Straits Time etc... or google some of the keyword like KL roadblock etc (you can figure out what to google eh~)
