Good Morning

I had not planned it, but looks like, I won’t be going out to the gym or running this entire week. Till Wednesday, I couldn’t and from the looks of it, I won’t be able to go out in the remaining days of this week, either. Why? Well, wifey is out on a business trip, while daughter is going through her exam week. So, I must wake her up and ensure she gets the bus to school. That means, till 7 a.m. I wouldn’t be able to go out anywhere. After that, I won’t have time for the gym or run. So, for the time being, my trusted home exercises are the way to go.

Thank God for the dumbbells at home. At least, I am keeping my body in shape. Also, yesterday, I mentioned that I would be looking at breaks to ensure that I did calisthenics. Happy to report that I indeed worked out during the breaks. 😊

Anyway, how about today? What did I do today?

With the weights, I focused on my arms and shoulders. I kept the training session intense with no breaks. Then, I intertwined calisthenics reps with the weights. It was as good as it gets. I loved it. I am adding one more calisthenics workout to my regime, focusing on my abs. So, in total, I took about forty-five minutes to complete my session.

Like yesterday, I will keep doing some sessions of planks during my breaks throughout the day. I ended the morning regime with Ho’oponopono. Divine! Here is my write-up on Ho’oponopono for those interested to know more.

Have fun reading and practicing.

Anyway, that's it from me for now. I will see you all tomorrow.

Namaste.

Did You Know?

Okay, this is one of the unexpected records but interesting nonetheless. The fun part is not many of you would know about it. Did you know there is a record for going up a flight of stairs with a person on your head? Yeah, there is.

Giang Quoc Nghiep and Giang Quoc Co, both brothers, hold the record. The brother went up 100 stairs while balancing the other on his head. The record was created on 23rd December 2021. The Vietnam nationals went up 100 stairs in just 53.6 seconds.
