2 week hiatus update: April 15 2024

in Actifit14 days ago


hello i am back in actifit. it has been about two weeks since the last time i wrote about my fitness journey. journeys are meant to be enjoyed so i enjoyed mine. let me just have a short recap of highlights since the last time i posted.

  • i hiked a mountain on the 6th but got too tired to write about it the next day. that was a 29 thousand step day and my legs hurt so much even days after. it would have been a cool entry in actifit but the pain got the best of me.
  • i went karaoke on the night of the 7th. that was a 12 thousand step day, or rather night. my legs surely hurt but my lungs, diaphragm, esophagus were all fine. i sang my heart out. singing is a great exercise should i say, specially when you do it for 4 hours. that is definitely a workout.
  • i am not thai but we went to a thai restaurant on the 13th. that day (or weekend) was coincidentally sonkran, a thai special holiday. as such, the restaurant was full. we had to wait for 10s of minutes before we finally got seated. it was a day filled with good food and lots of laughs but spicy thai food got the best of me, i was sweating like having a workout the entire time. plus 13 thousand steps to end the day.

oh well! i may have failed my actifit reports but rest assured that my fitness journey is still on track. about to derail because of the temptingly good food but i think i managed to stay on track. on the days not mentioned above, i still managed to go to the gym and do my workouts. on two occasions, i shortened my cardio duration due to leg fatigue. sometimes, you just have to listen to your body, only you know your limit. push whenever you can but never to the brink of hurting yourself.



as for today, biceps and shoulders day. nothing has really changed in our routine, and i think i am getting accustomed to the weights. i guess it is about time to increase weight on some of these routines. it is really not advisable to plateau on your routine, but it is more harmful if form is sacrificed when increasing weights. with that said, assessment is required in the next days. (alexa, add this in to-do list)

here is the biceps and shoulder routine
pull-ups (12 x 10)
barbell bicep curl (24.7kg x 3 x 12)
barbell overhead press (24.7kg x 3 x 12)
dumbbell shoulder press (40kg x 3 x 12)
seated biceps curls (25kg x 3 x 12)
hammer curls (20kg x 3 x 12)
dumbbell front raises (16kg x 3 x 12)
dumbbell side lateral raise (16kg x 3 x 30) (front, mid, and back)

i hope this is the start of a regular report back in actifit. (fingers crossed)
as always, AMPING KANUNAY MGA MAANYAG!

29 thousand steps up a mountain!!!??? Of course, your legs and feet would feel it. I think you are right about not exceeding our limits, because I one should not bite more than he can chew no matter what.

Anyways, keep keeping fit!

thanks man. my feet were more than happy after the hike when i got to sit at the train for a 2 hour travel.

I can imagine how it must have been. Glad you recovered to continue your activities.

thanks a lot man.
hope you are having fun over there enjoying life as it should be.
