Metabolic booster workout and legs

Hello Fluffies, 

I haven't been updating much because it's been pretty much blogilates videos everyday. I didn't have time to think about what I really want to do to 'up' my workouts so I just did whatever's on the calendar. 

But for today, I decided to add 2 more workouts to my calendar routine. These are new and I've never done them before.

1. 30 Day Fat Burn: Metabolic Booster Workout:

This one was tiring.. Not as tiring as a full on kick boxing cardio or HIIT workout but still tiring nonetheless. 

2. 30 Day Fat Burn: Legs and Butt Shaper Workout:
This one was... okay? Compared to most blogilates booty workouts, I'd say this is pretty mild. So doable, I can't really feel the burn.

I didn't try the whole 30 day thing. In fact I've never followed any specific diet and exercise plans. I just can't bring myself to cut off all that ice cream and chocolates. My vices.. but they're good for my soul. That's why I've never had the motivation to follow through those 30 day plans, bikini body in 4 weeks kinda thing. I'd much rather take it slow and have no time limit. It's a lifestyle right? Yes. I said yes for you. You have to agree with me lol.
Maybe I'll update again soon after my literature review submission. Until then.. its blogilates videos alll the wayyyy as I drown in school work and my part time job :/

1000 SQUATS

Hi Fluffies,

It's been quite a busy week so far. Despite the hustle and bustle, I did not stop working out and I'm proud to say that I have accomplished the craziest fitness feat for myself so far. 

Absolutely one of my proudest moment.

THE THOUSAND SQUAT CHALLENGE.


I . PERSPIRED . LIKE . A . PIG .
Can I do a 1000 squats? Sure as hell you can. You can go through this 45mins of leg burning because its really not as hard it sounds. I chickened out when the video first came out. Now, I wouldn't mind doing it again.

The final set of 100 squats was the hardest because the rollover squat variation took a toll on my lower back for some reason. Otherwise, it was good.

The rest of the week would be a ton of blogilates videos according to the calendar which I urge you to check it out because it is sooo convenient to be able to just follow a regime for the whole week and not worry about which parts to work everyday!

Saturday Cardio & toning and Sunday GYM DAY WITH BOYFRIEND FOR THE FIRST TIME

Hello Fluffies,

Its a week of getting used to new things. For instance, the gym that I've been going to is going to close down soon. I'm gonna start my part time job next weekend which means :( no more gymming on sundays :( no more ice cream sundays :( 

Definitely a lot of planning and scheduling to be done. Oh and my first assignment is due Sept 12th. I think I'm gonna struggle with the 3000 word essay. 

Anyways, I hit the gym with my boyfriend for the first time today! It's leg day for the both of us and we did a few exercises. Not as much as usual but I was sweating ALOT more than usual.. which is quite disgusting coz a bead of my sweat actually dripped onto my boyfriend's lap >.<

What I did:
1. Running with 4 incline:
    1.2km
2. Squats with 15kg weights each side:
    3 sets of 10 reps 
3. Squats with 15kg weights each side with 20kg Barbell:
    3 sets of 8 reps 
4. Hamstring curls with 4kg weight:
    3 sets of 8 reps 
5. Standing kickbacks with 6kg weight:
    3 sets of 10 reps each leg 
6. Standing side swing with 5kg weight:
    2 sets of 10 reps each leg
7. Random punches:
    A few times
8. AB rollers:
    2 failed attempts

That was it for the day. Not alot of work done considering I would usually do dead lifts, walking lunges and quad extensions. But I felt more tired than usual :/

Last night, I went to Crystal jade at Holland Village for the XLB buffet with my friends. It was a buffet, I definitely had to 'prep' and workout before I head out to sin big time. So here's the workout for Saturday's Piggin' Out:

Fitness Blender's 1000 Calorie workout (I DID ONLY DID HIIT PORTION.)
8 minute abs


5 best muffintop melting moves:

Spring fling 1: Toning Workout

Playa Del Plank

Now for the fun bit, here's the food that we had yesterday: 

Gula Melaka Soft serve on Waffles from Sunday Folks
Here's us after Sunday folks because soft serve ain't got nothing on real scooped ice cream
Us at 10pm, feasting our lives away on XLBs...
 
Stacks of XLBs
This was supposed to be dessert after drinks at Wala but everyone was too stuffed so each of us took one home. These cupcakes from Plain Vanilla are awesome. I haven't had a good cupcake in a while!
I had the chocolate banana cupcake and it was dope :>

I had the best pocky of my entire life yesterday, courtesy of my boyfriend. If you ever come across Matcha Chocolate pocky please do not let it slip away. Please BUY IT. It's worth the calories honey.

Monday Workout log

Hi Ya'll fluffies,

It was a loooong day. But definitely a happy one :) My boyfriend and I went up to our secret hideout again and it was as beautiful as ever. We can't wait for our trip to start really. Can't wait for wednesday to come!

Morning was a trip to the market with my mother and these chrysanthemums just look too pretty! I had to take a picture.


Today, I'd like to show you my lunchbox. If you knew me personally, you would know that I am a serial lunch box packer. It saves me money from eating out and is a greater excuse for me to eat clean. It seems that I've rubbed off this habit onto my boyfriend and he packs his meals too to eat with me. That is really nice of him because I don't feel as awkward and lonely, eating my lunchbox meals.:) I know how it feels to be the only weirdo amongst your peers, eating your own lunchbox meals. I was really self concious at first but eventually I just thought, screw what they think. I care more about what I can do for my body than how they think of me because how they think of me, is not going to change my body and who I am.
Brussels sprouts, peas, carrots, corn, brown rice, 2 egg whites, chicken shreds and mustard!
Btw, isn't that Spork cute?? It's pink! lol


I know it would be difficult for me to workout while on vacation so I'm actually trying to cram in as much as I can before Wednesday's afternoon flight. Hopefully I would get to sweat during some of our adventure activities. 

So here's today's workout dear fluffies :)


1. Fat-Burning Cardio Workout: Befit in 90:

2. POP Pilates Inner thigh Insanity:


3. Bikini Blaster Sexy legs workout Part 1:


4. The Push plank challenge for sexy arms and hard core:

5. Back on fire POP Pilates:
