Workout (video):
Today’s workout was interesting. I really tried to push it out and post-pone it, really didn’t feel like working out. But hey, I’m on track, can’t break my streak.
And then when I did the Jamb Hammer Rows and doorway Bicep Curls, I really got so fed up with that. It’s just a lot of reps, and it requires different parts of your body. It’s not just engaging the biceps and chest muscles, but I really felt it in my forearms and hands as well, and that always sucks. That’s funny though, because when I did Jamb Hammer Rows and Doorway Bicep Curls the first time, I really liked it. So there you go, things can change real fast.
I was surprised though that I could do the cyclone push-ups. They looked much harder, but I could do 20 at first try, and I actually like them, they’re cool.
Another first-time exercise today were Counter Top Triceps Dips. Much harder than I expected those to be. The first one that I tried, I could her and feel it clicking and clacking all through my arms, ellbow joints, shoulders, wrist. But even apart of the joint strain, it was really tough on the muscles, much more difficult than I anticipated.
The Single Leg Bulgarian Wall Squats were also interesting. They turned out to be challenging in an unexpected way. It was of course hard on the legs, but the most I actually felt the muscle in my back. It might be the external oblique abdominal muscles?

Foodlog:
Interesting day as far as food is concerned. After having my best day ever yesterday in terms of food, today I ate A LOT. Good stuff, but a lot. Durian definitely had it’s role. Durian season is short, and we’re in prime durian season now, so I’m not holding back and eating away. 140 baht per kg for monthong durian. Then later I went to a hotpot place with a friend, so that added to it again. And then even my shake today was a badass-monstrocity. All good food, except for that peanut butter jelly sandwich, but even without that, just a lot of calories today.
