Act 1, Scene 6: Fatigue

For the very first time, I asked if I could be excused from fetching her. =)

Had a full day today. Was pretty stressed half the time but I felt great the whole day. Finally, exams are over; it's now the holidays till June 23rd. Haha. That's 2 months dude.. Anybody need someone to do their chores or run their errands for them?

I had a great morning. Spent with a great girl. Saw her off and got to school at about 830.

I had just recently started running on the treadmill because I've always focused on working on strength in the gym. So I decided to try it out recently cos the gym was empty and no one else was using it. And I gotta tell you, I love it. Haha. I usually found cardio such a waste of time when I wanna focus on strength training but I realised that strength training gets mundane quite quickly and not to mention, very painful. I guess my focus on strength came about during my rugby-playing days when we worked out in the gym on rainy days. Stamina and cardio came about when we trained on the pitch so strength was the sole factor we focused on. How much strength? Well, not much really. Haha. I usually focused on the muscles that I would be using alot so they were mainly the calves, quadriceps, triceps and shoulders. My triceps were huge in JC. Haha. I used to do hundreds of push-ups during training and before I started matches to intimidate the opponents. And I usually bench-pressed about a total of 3 tons during each session (12 sets of 5 repetitions of 50kg). I still remember this group of kids coming into the gym when I was bench-pressing during JC and they stood around and laughed as I was doing my warm-up set of 20kg weights. So I got up, said, 'Now you try it.', and watched the bugger almost choke himself on just 20kg. Haha.

So right now, I'm just so pooped out. Haha. Good thing is my muscles aren't sore which means they're getting used to it. So many more trainings to come in the next 2 months. Now...if only I had someone to do it for. =) Any takers?
