Hi,

Right now it's way past my bedtime. So short and sweet. Here are Day 32 pics for October 26, 2006.

Day 31 Pics

Hi,

I've been busy the last 5 days on other things, hence the reason why I haven't posted much recently. However, I have not let my training slide.

Here are the Day 31 pics for October 25, 2006.

Day 26 Pics

Hi,

Today I did another double session of "circuit style" weight training and cardio consisting of HIIT treadmill and 10 laps of a 25m pool. For some reason swimming feels really good after after a hard session on the treadmill. I highly recommend incorporating swimming into your cardio routine, much easier if your gym has a pool to begin with of course.

Here are Day 26 pics for October 20, 2006.

Cheers,
AJ

Day 25 Pics

Hi,

Today has been a rough day. I don't feel comfortable talking about it or anything else today. However I still did two sessions today although weight training was cut short due to HS basketball training.

Here are photos for Day 25, October 19, 2006.

Day 23 Pics

G'day,

Today was another 2-part workout day on "Phase II". This morning I did my "Ripping" Workout #2, which is a circuit style weight training workout with a twist. I have only 30 seconds rest between each set while also alternating between upper and lower body exercises in an A1/A2 type split.

This evening I went to my local gym here in Osaka to do the other half which was my HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) 20 minute cardio workout on the treadmill. I followed this up my "Triple Series" abdominal workout, done in 15 minutes.

Here are my Day 23 pics for October 17, 2006.

Cheers, AJ

Day 22 Pics

G'day,

Well, today is Day 22 of my 12 week physique challenge. The first 3 weeks of Phase I of my program is now complete. Phase I was basically getting my body back up to speed and preparing myself for the Phase II onslaught.

While Phase I was focused primarily on cardio capacity with HIIT intensive training and supersetting weight training exercises, Phase II kicks me into a new gear with my new increased cardio capacity. This is the "Ripping Phase", designed to "cut me up."

Phase II consists of daily HIIT cardio training and "circuit style" weight training with only 30 second rest periods between each set, 4 days a week. Today I completed Day 1 of Phase II. I was totally hammered after my "Ripping Workout I" but the rush feels great when you have finished when you are covered in sweat. In the evening I also did my 20 minute HIIT workout on the treadmill.

Here the pics for October 16, 2006.

See you tomorrow,
Peace, AJ

Just a quick post today. Did a HIIT cardio workout on the treadmill this morning. Maxed out at 14.5 km/h, I will be ramping up to 15 km/h next week. Here are Day 20 Pics for October 14, 2006.

Ciao, AJ
