Day 10: Home Workout |
Today Saturday was supposed to be double session of speed workout and 450m time trial but I decided to have today and tomorrow complete rest for my twitching knee
There’s still some slight small sensation. Based on past experience, its better to recover fully, rather than aggravate it. It’s not worth the injury, when you could have prevented it
Type Workout: Chest, Abs, Legs
Duration: Around 40 minutes
Workout Details:
- Pushups (3×20)
- Chest Fly (3×20)
- Chest Press (3×20)
- Crunches Abs (3×50)
- Scissors Abs (3×50)
- Crossover Twist Abs (3×50)
- Squats (3×20)
- Lunges (3×20)
- Calf Raise (3×50)
Thoughts
It’s been awhile since I did home workout, as most of the time rain or shine I’ll train outdoors no matter what. But for the time-constraints people or maybe the weather is bad, you could do these home workout routines
Well here’s my routine, the basic level. There’s more variations of course, it’s all a matter of your fitness level. Don’t go overboard if you’re new. Start small, get the ball rolling, get the feel of each exercises and know the goal
If you’re working on the abs, don’t exercise other parts of the body. Sometimes we excessively use extra energy to compensate our weak areas. So if that’s your issue, start with easier degree of difficulty in the routines
I would recommend different body parts each day if you’re into this home workout. For example today its chest, abs, leg. Next few days, work on your back, biceps and triceps
Well good luck, hope the video above is of help. Train and eat smart!

Hi Sha~
Came across ur blog from Marina’s. I’m wondering. Tho I’m not fat, there are fat areas that I wanna lose on myself. Targetted areas wld be:
1. those fats at the arms
2. those fats at the thighs
3. Tone up the stomach (don’t need to have 6-pack)
I’m only running twice a week. But as a woman, the problem with running is dat it will also makes the boobs (sorry for being upfront) smaller and for big boobs, sag. So, do u have any suggestions?
Hi there welcome to my blog
For 1 & 2, the only way to spot tone the area is weights. Do you gym? Of course there’s only so much gym you can do, it cannot remove flapping fat skin, this one needs surgery and I’ve heard to some success cream & lotion

For 3, for me other than abs workout, diet plays an important part. Maybe you can ask someone qualified to look over your diet. Alternatives to jogging, you can do cardio activities such as
- cycling
- rollerblading
- rowing machine
- staircase training
- skipping
- playing sports
Good Luck :)
Hey hey! Thanks! I will try and let u noe the outcome ya!
(but jogging is so mundane without a partner, don’t u think?)
Well yeah at times, but for me I usually think of my goal and focus on that … the outcome outweighs the boredom for me
Also my ipod comes in handy … or chase cars during your run. I do that. That should be fun :)
