Day 127

Hmm.. I don't know if I forgot to update last week or otherwise. Well, I went to Langkawi for a holiday, so I couldn't gym that often. ^^

Monday night was Body Combat night. I'm starting to become an avid BC member again. I can feel it when I ditch a gathering with my friends to go to the gym instead. =p Any day is ok except for Mondays (Terence's BC class) and Saturdays (Danny's Dance Mania class) k! Maybe Fridays (Jason's Body Jam class)! Standard gymming days. :P

BC that night was quite fun. To be honest, blogging this on Wednesday and I've forgotten everything that we did. But I remember that it was quite fun, albeit a little silent. Why are all the people on the right side of the class so semangat? Everyone on the left is quiet as mice. Maybe it's some kinda psychological thing, whereby quiet people like to go to the left wtf. Theory which must be tested out one day.

Pauline asked me if I gained weight or not... sad! I gained another 1kg when I was at Langkawi. Perhaps I should do weight training regardless of whether I have whittled back down to my "original size before I went to US".

Day 126

Body Combat night, are ..... you..... readyyyyyyy... wtf. No theme tonight, had Terence as the instructor and Loraine as the shadow-er.

~ warm up : Stuck On You (you know, I was listening to this on my iPod and thinking how long it was since we last did this track, and then I tried to remember bits and pieces of the choreo to myself. Like the punch-step-back thing... muwahhaha... it was great to do this track again and see how much I actually *did* manage to remember)

~ We're not Gonna Take This (??) for the lower body track. Quite like this for a new release track, especially the lunging kicks.

~ Forgot what we did for upper body... I think it's something we've done quite often... *don't remember*

~ Push It for the jump kick track. Mmm... ok track I guess.

~ Sk8tr Boi for the circle track... do not hate or love this track. I do not hate / love most of the circle tracks. *boycott*

~ Behind the Cow for recovery ?? It's a damn dumb song if you listen to the lyrics carefully, then again it's Scooter. The part where it sounds like they are loading a gun (right before the ginga starts) is damn cool, but that's it! I sent the mp3 to my colleague to listen, and now we go, "this is the legend.... BEHIND THE COW!!!" whenever we are stuck behind a slow car when we're on the fast lane. HAHAHAHA. Damn irrelevant / bodoh.

~ Electro Violence for Muay Thai. FINALLY I HEARD THE WORDS "electro (electric??) violence" being mentioned... omg. This MT track is damn damn damn damn difficult. Ok, at this point, I was already dying / fainting / dizzy because I have been dealing with horrible sinus problems for 1 week +, and dahlah all the tracks today are stuff I'm not used to. Not to say I've NEVER done them before, just that I prefer not to, hehehe. With the exception of "Stuck On You" of course. ANYWAY... Terence just HADDDD to restart the track. Now I have a new theory on the restarting of tracks (previous theory = "He can only restart twice MAX" has been disproved last week"). It's a simple theory - "He will NOT restart when he's running late". Duh!! Otherwise it's fair game. I swear, even if pple are gung ho, he will still sadistically restart tracks.

~ Final track... forgotten!! I think I was just going through the motions because I really felt like puking.

~ Conditioning - - - Here I Come / one of my most hated conditioning tracks. Ok, remember the move where Emma taught us, "to do it properly, imagine u are a dog" wtf? Yeah, Terence grabbed my leg and was like pushing it to show me how to do it properly, but damn scary la ok. Suddenly only grabbed my ultra muscular calf (wtf) ... and my right calf is semi-injured so it was @#%@#%@#$!@$!@ painful. The more he push the more I did not budge a single inch, hahhaa. In the end I realised he was not trying to kill me and then persevered to ignore the calf injury to do the kick. Sigh. Why am I so calf-injury-prone. AFter the class, another one of the participants asked me, "You injured your leg issit? I saw you limping all the way down from the class." T_____T Yesssss.... poor me....

~ Because we Believe for cool-down, always a favorite. =p I like "when love & hate collide" too. =)

Day 124

Backdated entry #2 - Body Combat at True Fitness, Jaya 33 with Delon.

Yalah, I can only wake up for his classes when I have tennis lessons in the morning. =) Fuuh, damn crazy, I had to wake up at 6:30am to make it to Bangsar Sports Center, and even then I ended up about 5-8 minutes late. T_T

BC was good, can't remember most of the songs we did, except for Power of Love. Delon asked another class participant to go on stage to do the song with him. Excuse me, but I really tak percaya that there's another participant who can do the choreo as well as I can. You might think I'm bragging baselessly, but that's only cos you haven't seen me in action wtf.

P.S : I'm not comparing myself to instructors / people who have or ARE doing instructor training, I'm comparing myself to other people IN THE CLASS ok.

I'm great!

Day 123

Backdated entry #1 - gym @ TF, Taipan on Friday.

What else is there but Body Jam with Jason. Let me try to remember the songs we did --- the first 3 tracks were from the latest release - warm-up, isolations, and then Impacto for Latin. Did the "old skool" performance track - not bad since Jason has 'trained' us for this track almost consecutively for 3 weeks. For recovery we did this really weird song that I have NEVER done before. He said that it was very jazzy ... guess which song? Whenever You did "something jazzy" it would definitely be Geri Halliwell's Look at Me. This one was the Hello Moto theme song, hahaha. I don't know the name of the song! Anyway, it is quite confusing, only got the hang of it in the last quarter part of the song, hahaha. Did Scandalous, then did Safri Duo again, love it! It's one of my favourites, cos you can really sweat like mad for this song. Ended with Good Luck, another high energy track!

Cool down was so-called everyone's "favourite cool down track".

Guess?







I got it right!







Can't guess?









It's I don't feel like dancing lor. ;)

Rushed back without weight training to celebrate my sister's birthday. *heart*

Day 122

Tuesday night is my random cardio night, since I'm nearing my "original weight before I went to California", I will be doing weight training on Tuesdays and Fridays as well. I can't weight wait! (Freudian slip?)
I went on the strider for 25 minutes yesterday... while listening to David Tao. Before you laugh, I just want to say that he's so relaxing la... and some of his songs are actually good to pump up the pace! Like "The Chase" and "Walk On". Everytime he starts to rap, I feel like rapping as well, but since my mandarin is soooooo bad, I can only get in like 10 words before he completely loses me. :P During his emo-jiwang songs I lagi want to break out into karaoke in the middle of the gym. Especially for "Forever"...
This is so not about a workout, hahaha. Yeah, and I watched the last episode of "Amazing Race Asia"... I liked Rovilson and Marc... too bad they didn't win! The stupid hourglasses at the sand dune was such a cheat, allowing trailing teams to catch up... argh. Damn la, I don't even think the Malaysian team should've gotten 2nd. Shame shame.
Tis all for today...

Day 121

BC on Monday was pretty cool - Terence had a "theme" for the tracks which we did for the day. Mystical something-something (forgot liaw), which meant that the tracks were the ones with the Asian-ish influence - kungfu movements and what not. I so knew that the jump kick track would be Jigga Jigga. :P *action*
There was another guy shadowing him (Soo I think??) and Lorraine. The warm-up track was Shake That, follwed with Bom Bom Suenan (after SO many years of BC, I finally realised that oh THIS is the weirdly-named "Bom Bom Suenan"... nyek nyek nyek). Soo then presented TWO tracks which doesn't follow the theme, but whatever lar.. hehe. One was quite difficult, I was totally lost. Is it a new release track? Was confuddled to the max. Then we had Genie in a Bottle, where the choreo seems different from last time, I can't quite put my finger on it. Anyway I like that song too. =)
Back to Terence for Jigga Jigga, some circle track which he restarted twice (can die... one of the participants in the class actually let out an unearthly scream when he proceeded to restart for the 2nd time wtf... gave me a shock), Kungfu Fighting for recovery (this is actually a really nice track, why don't we do it more often?), Shake Ya Body for Muay Thai and the last track is a really old one that I really like but til now can't figure out the name. Hahaha. Conditioning is Bite the Dust (not really a fan since it has the circular push-up) and some kung-fu-ish track for cool down. =D
Oh yah!! During the circle track, Terence allowed us to "punch" his hand as a target... this is my fave part of any Combat class hehehe (sadly only a few allow me to do this!! Am I that untrustable? There was Terence, Swee, You & ... not sure if Alvin also, I think not!) Anyway since I was really tired by circle track, I simply aimed only, landed a punch on his wrist wtf... hahaha! He said, "What is this?!!?" I think got a lot of people simply aim la, he kena punched from behind also. Sigh... this is what you get when you restart a track more than once!! Boycott! :P

Day 120

I think I'm crazy! I went for a tennis lesson in Bangsar Sports Complex, and then spent another 3 hours at the gym! Nuts!! Yeah I know I'm fat, doesn't mean that I should work like freaking so much in a span of a day right. I got even more sad when I went out with a new colleague recently, and she's 164cm tall, but wants to weigh 45kg! She's currently 47kg!! When I asked her why she wants to lose more weight, she said, "Cos I'm still plump now." Then stupid Mr AIP said, "Ooh.. now you have insulted LeeCheng..." WTF. Actually yalar, how to not feel insulted? I'm only 158cm but I'm over 50kg ler. Now you know.

I think one of the main reasons why I like tennis is because if you're freaking 45kg and 164cm you probably won't be able to return the serves powerfully. Does Maria Sharapova / Venus & Serena Williams / Martina Hingis look like anaroxic people to you?

When I reached Jaya33, I had BREAKFAST at Subway... then went for Body Combat. Delon was 30 minutes late, triggering speculation that he's stuck in the oh-so-stupid police block on the Federal Highway. Seriously, just let people protest without making a big show of force... you just make yourself look lamer by trying all these tactics to stop people going to the demonstration, and then failing to stop them! Have you people NOT read 48 Laws of Power?

Delon did 12 tracks to "balas balik" his lateness... damn tiring!! Don't know why that aunty thought of such a "punishment" for him... gosh! But it was a really cool class, he's another instructor that likes to do a mix of old & new tracks... this is a rare thing in True Fitness. Some of the old tracks include :
~ Bagpipes (my favorite ler, I think I know 95% of the chorey already)
~ Hymns
~ I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)
... I kinda forgot! Hehehe, but it's a really good class, and he did Welcome to the Black Parade! The cues were right on time, wonderful! Er... he kept calling me instructor... donno whether he's being sarcastic or what... T___T What did I doooooo??? :( :( And he even updated us all on Adrian's condition... aka he is currently exercising his fingers on video games, kekeke. Pooooor Adrian, btw my sister is really impressed that you are now a BC instructor... hehehe.

Delon actually went to another studio to teach his "extended BC" lesson, so I could only attend 30 minutes of Jason's Body Attack class after that. When I went in, they were already doing the "conditioning" track - Who's Your Daddy? Another good class, although my legs could already barely move after BC! Think Jason was already really tired as our cool down track (Do You Know? (The Ping Pong Song) consisted of : lying on our backs for 45 seconds, then stretching right leg, stretching left leg, the end. Wtf. :P :P

Final class for the day was Dance Mania with Danny... before that did 3 sets of triceps extension (must not neglect my triceps!!!). Wanted to beg him to do something simple & sexy, mana tahu he came in saying he gained weight from CNY, so he wants to teach a track that "shakes everything". !!!! Anyway the dance had damn nice choreography!! Me likes!! We danced to mostly Dance (Fatman Scoop & Goleo), but for the final "performance", we danced to Calfornia Dreamin' (Benny Benassi mix).

Thus ends today's workout... wanted to faint already during Dance Mania class because I was so so so tired & sleepy & HUNGRY. I don't understand why I was HUNGRY when I had already eaten at Subway for breakfast?? Sheesh.... appetite of a lion, and I wonder why I'm over 50kg. *sobs*
