I just sent in my enrolment form with a cheque to uni today. I had a few problems getting the money but I got it in the end.

Anyway Uni is starting up from next week and it is going to be hectic, I need to manage my study and fitness. I hope this doesn’t kill me doing both throughout the week after work.

This time around I am going to get myself ready for everything, I’ve been there and understood what not to do. So a bag of nuts would help stop the crave and I would get myself a home brew coffee or a skimmy Starbucks coffee to get myself through those books.

Well it should be easy now that I’ve got the click of revision and managing work and uni. For example now I can now read through books really fast and get what I need. So my plan this year is to knock out my coursework well in time and get my revision notes and lectures notes sync so that when it comes to exam in January I can just skim through my notes. (more…)

It seems that I am a bit addicted to the coffee now….

I feel pretty hooked up since I started taking it to the gym sine last weekend. I bought some really strong Nescafe granules from Waitrose. It is pretty strong but I found a really good mix to get that kick that you need. (more…)

As I usually attend the gym in the afternoon or late in the
evening. I am usually tired and unmotivated to work out. Even if I know that after the workout I would feel energised I
sometimes do not attend the gym. But what I found is that if you take half a cup of coffee with one
spoon full of coffee granule, 1 sugar and milk ( a good amount of semi-skimmed)
1 hour before the work out you will feel motivated. The coffee does not only
motivate you but your workout doesn’t’ feel tiring. And according to Men’s
health magazine one cup of coffee before a work out will help you build
muscles.

I also found that if you start drinking lucozade hydroactive
during your workout you get a boost a
mix from a normal lucozade without too much calorie. Basically because the lucozade
focus has high glucose which gives you a lot of energy. Too much sugar can be bad, so this mix of
coffee and just lucozade hydro worked well on me.

Try it out and tell me about it.

I know it seems I’m posting too soon and it seems to be repeating. But hey I felt like posting.

Last week I did nothing. No actual exercise or activity. I tried but felt that I couldn’t move out of my chair. I have actually gained .4kg so its not bad as I was eating properly or maybe it was water weight.
Well anyway on Sunday I tried to motivate myself in training by getting a skipping rope. This time it is a 9 footer as I had a 8 footer which restricted my motion. On Monday afternoon, I took it out and tried some. I was able to do 30 seconds none stop. If you think that is easy and you have never tried it. Well I would say your talking crap as it is very difficult to skip for a long period of time.

In total I did 5 min of workout which is not that bad.

Regarding my last entry I mentioned that my goal for now is to lose 6kg in 6 weeks. Which is going to be tough as it is going to be the first time in a long time that I will be reaching that weight.

What I am planning to do this week is working out at least 2 full body workout this week and on the rest will be a mix of things. I will also follow my personal trainers plan. The aim is to be active 6 days out of 7. So this means I will be going gym for the rest of the week.
