Day 71 - Egg reduction

Nice to have a more typical dinner again. The local supermarket guy commented on how much I like eggs the other day, while the daily intake was up to 5. Need to do a little better avoiding drinks on friday evenings...

Exercises are going well -- doing about 10 times the rope jumping compared to week 1 and yet its easier than before.  Still no luck with double jumps, but I could try a little harder on that. Perhaps a heavier rope would be easier to swing it faster? Stronger on the chest exercises, but not hitting the maximum numbers yet. Getting better on the kung fu situps, but my arms are giving out before the target muscle group.

  2. I really spend a lot of time doing the pull ups - the way I figure it is ... its better to do them properly.... so I take the time. Might be cheating a bit .. but hey - I am getting better and stronger and can do more sets of them. Most training routines recommend just get the numbers in ... does not matter how long on pull ups.

    On the eggs... its too expensive in singapore to eat so many eggs. So damn glad that we stopped that ... at least for this week.

    By the way - I tried a few double jumps and nearly ended up in the hospital...

    See ya soon buddy.
