Day 214: Strength (Core, Gym and Plyometrics)

singapore personal trainer

Disclaimer: By doing my workouts and blogging it online here, I’m not seeking attention, nor am I an exhibitionist. I’m the type that follow-through my training much better if I put it in writing. I workout because I can, and I love doing so. Do not try to emulate my training program, I bear no responsibility if you do so. I’m no role-model, not your papa, mama, your soulmate, or someone you can look-up to, nor am I’m a national athlete … I am just a NOBODY. So just leave me be.


Well now, today I woke up super uber late. An hour than my usual morning roll-call. Well I guess sleep was what I needed, and I woke up this morning feeling fine, no strains nor injuries, so that’s good.

I jogged to my usual training location, and halfway during the run I nearly stumbled, as the ground was uneven. That was a close shave, as I fear getting injured.

That’s my ultimate concern now, as getting injured means no training for me, and I’ll need to start again from scratch after the recovery period.

Well with that I’ll be even more cautious these days. The jog itself was rather taxing for me today. It could be the hot morning weather. By the time I reached the gym, I was drenched.

After paying the gym entrance fee, I started with my core. With that particular workout, I sweated even more. My gym mat was totally covered in sweat, and I lost plenty of fluids today. After core, I hydrated myself at the water cooler, and during gym, the frequency more than other days.

Today I felt a surge of energy, totally excited when starting at each new station, and I made good use of that. Gym felt good, and it showed in my form later in the conversion.

As usual I always dread using the Hack Squat machine. I observed it’s the least used machine by gym users, but it’s the stinkiest. Phhweeee, oh please, let it be smelling nice on my next gym session.

With gym over, I proceed outside to execute my conversion. Everything went as planned with no hiccups. I felt my running form today was great. You know, it’s just one of those days as if you felt as though you’re running on air, and sprinting fast.

Well that feeling was abruptly interrupted during my short dash session. I felt a slight twinge during the 8th set on my lower right hamstring. I knew I should have either lowered the intensity or stop short of doing any more runs.

But I continued, and on the last set, I pulled something. It’s nothing serious, but it has that annoying strain feeling every time I jog or run. Bummer. I should have listened to my body.

Oh well, I do hope my recovery later will work its magic.
