Exercise challenge!!- 300 squats
Since I went to JB today for another shopping trip (haha), I couldn't do a proper workout by the time I got home. Thus, I decided to do this 300 squats challenge on bodyrock.tv!
I modified it to sumo squats 'cause my knee still hurts a bit.Also, I did 100 squats, did stretching for 20s and repeated this 3 times. The stretching really helped my muscles to push on and continue with my squats. It was really motivating when I could see the various muscles of my quads really popping as I moved! :) Try this challenge out as a quick workout when you're back home late and really have no time to squeeze in a workout.
My timing: 5:45min

A streak of bad luck
This week was a real bummer for me.
I had my rest day on Sunday. Then food poisoning struck when I was out with my girls on that same evening. On that same evening, after having a terrible stomachache, I realised I left my gym bag in the toilet. By the time I got there, it was GONE. ;_; Had 2 drinks after that to lighten up the sadness and well, it was a rare girls' night out. =p
Due to the food poisoning, I took another day off from working out on Monday to fully recover. Thank god the food poisoning was mild.:)
Today's Tuesday and I really needed to hop on the workout train again. I was going crazy from all the illnesses and stress. I went on teaching anyway. Right before I was going to train my client, guess what? YES, my period arrived. :( For me, my periods are rather on the heavy end. Lasting the full week.
Thus, when I got home. I was exhausted. The cramped kicked in and I felt totally bleh. But my mind was totally nagging at me to get in my workout of the day. So, this is what I did.
