180604 Brain is fired, Written Exam in 2 day
I am. exhausted.. and don have the mood to study any more...
the exam is pure memorization of many many things... and i am at a point where i had read 95% of everything..
and is just time to repeat remember over and over agian hoping I can spit out as much as i could when a specific topic is asked.

i am not having good sleep due to pressure, and even when i am sleeping, i feel like my mind is trying to ask myself question and answering those memorized key point 1 by 1.

with 2 days left... i am struggling, not studying efficiently nor productively, and NBA final game 2 is on...
i will probably tell myself not to watch it untill after the exam... if i am lucky enough to avoid knowing the result in advance.

I had not done much exercise since my exam... those 2 session of 100m sprint and few session of Sprint start ant nothing....
I wish i can go shoot some hoop... or may be Jump to the rim a few times....

I will do it after the exam.. I feel fat and sluggish... with almost a month of poor eating (pressure release from exam)
and after the exam.. still have a few NBA final to watch.. along with Wold cup...

keep at it.. efficient or not.. keep studying...
Dam it...

180608 A Friday afternoon where I slacking/recovering from my exam 2 days after finishing all exam.
I had not done any jumping or lifting for over a month.
Now, all exam is finished. and result will be out in 4 month or so.

Half of 2018 is gone.
I Remember...in 2017 I set myself a goal to complete 4 cycle of Russian Squat with 4 jump months in between. I End up failing in my 3rd Russian cycle., dunked at the 2 lowest rim out of the 4 in total. I can proudly said 2017 wat the time where I squat the Most heaviest weight since the day I born.

However, 2018 seems to be a mess... I have done alot of running with my kid.. getting many award for her age group. But for myself as in personal goal... I can feel that I wasted half a year already. I may had got myslef a new qualification/ licenses for those exams. But it...does not mean much to me at a personal level.

I wish..i mean.. I hope...
no.. those word is not strong enough.

I Must. Regroup myself...Now...
now that half of 2018 is gone. I must pick up the pace and finish 2018 in a strong way.

This is a message to myself.
on 180608 A Friday afternoon where I slacking/recovering from my exam 2 days after finishing it.

it will be raining for the next 7 days or so.

180613 Dam Mofuking shxt
So Exam was finished on a Wed, Planned to Kick start where My training left off over the weekend... and

Bang, I got fever attacked, got up to 101F in my head. With diarrhea making me go water down 5 times a day. for 2 days in a row.

Is Wednesday now, and I am finally recovering.

Looking out the windows, it is raining season and it is pretty much wet everyday with a few hrs of dry court if lucky.

Any how, June 13 it is. Gather up soon... recover, regroup and restart.

Fathers days is this week. Be a successful one.

PS. May be i am just getting old.... being pulled to the poetry territory without really knowing... lol

180621 Holy Shxt
So I jumped once last week and barely touched the Low rim no.4.... this is a new low for me.
Body is just stiff, and my left quad start to act up being tight.

And last Sunday, I resumed lifting with an 1 hrs of squat.
Worked up to 2x45lbs plate on each side doing 4sets of 5. Wrap up with 30lbs arm curl 3x10
On my 5th set, i added 25 on each side... and Failed on my first reps.

Monday is a holiday and My leg started to get sore, (thinking this is great, at least i dont need to wait 48 hrs for soreness attack) so i did a 30min recovery jog.
I fooled around at the beach with my kid for few hours also.

Tuesday... all hell break lose, quad ham and glute sore to the max.
Wednesday still sore... sunny outside...skipped my luch jump session.
Thursday today STILL SORE WTF is going on.. take 4 days to recover from a minor squat session because I have not lift for long time? And it is raining outside.. which mean.. Jump session is canned again.

When the weather is good.. i should go jump.. regardless of how tired I am.... at least practice some jump mechanic.. or stretch.. instead of wasted a session..

LBSS · « **Reply #1012 on:** June 21, 2018, 01:57:15 am »

prolonged DOMS after lifting for the first time in a while is totally normal.

180625 Monday Jump Session
I squat for 45 min on Sunday again. Lifting heavier than last week,
at 45 45 25 plates 4 set of 3 ( i did 45 45 4 set of 5 last Sunday)

On the same day, I jog for 30min as recovery.
Monday Lunch becomes a rim jump session. Many kids on court... so i was jumping between lowest rim 1 and rim 3. I am unable to dribble dunk on rim 1... but I am able to get over it with my whole wrist on a few good jump.

Did a few test on rim 4 and able to reach over by 1 inch or so.

Now is Monday night. and not much soreness from squat. Calf is a bit sore from the forward strike run.

resume... pls

180703 Ran alone to clear my mind
Have some relationship issue.... that cant be fixed.
so i decide to ran alone with out a timing or tracking... just 1 direction all the way untill i feel like returning..
i was hoping i can get 10km or even more... but

I ran and ran.. and back to my home 30 yrs ago... lol... and i was like.. ok time to go back... and ran back.
end up only did 39min at 6.34km.

Just like that relationship.. i thought it could had lasted longer and further. But it did not...

180708 50 min Squat session
Got back to 3 plate squat.. worked up to 2 set of 2 (2nd set fail at 3rd reps). I ran 30 min at 4.9km with my girl at night.

180710 Jump at lunch...
nothing good. leg is tired from sunday. always sore attack after 48 hrs

180829 Long Time no See on Adarq.

Since early July... I had lost some one very important.
I could not adjust and it affect me in many ways.

I saw this virtual Race event... which require participate to run a minimum of 100km from August 1st to 28th. (100 for bronze, 150 for silver and 200 for gold medal)
For whatever reason... i decided to join....
may be i want to use this event as a way to clear my mind to get over the thing that happened and i could not change.

so....for the pass 28 days.
I ran 18 times, which include 16 session of 30min/5km and 2 session of 60min/10km. In one of the day, I actually ran 5km at 7am and 5km at 7pm.

It is interesting, i thought since i only run once a week with kid before... I consider myself as a newbie runner... and running this much millage should improve my running ability (beginners gain right?). The true is I had not seem any improvement in speed at all, the first 70km, 12 session or so...

It is near the last 5 session or so.. I start seeing improvement. My average pace go from 6.5 min/km to now 5.5min/km, so i am able to break the 6min/km speed consistently in my 5km. However... my body weight DID NOT decrease at all... WTF eh... I eat normally same as before.... I thought 100km... like i run 30 min every 2nd days.. and WTF.... no weight lost? this is some bull shxt running exercise useless crap that i am doing...

In my final run... I did 10km in the rain.. but my time is 1 hr and 42 sec. (So i am 42 sec SHORT of beating the 6min mark.)

Today is Aug 29th. It is raining again...in fact it was raining daily for the pass few days, I am lucky that i was able to finish the final few km in the rain.

A total of 101km is finished in 18 sessions in 28days.
The Event is Officially over. And I think.. i must seriously move on.

Focus on what is important that i can control, in work, in life and family etc. also.. vertical jump....

Zianimal always says... Die trying.

I should get back to vertical. Now that the event is over, which symbolize me finally moving on fwd from the past.
