Body Workout at Home (Abs, Triceps & Chest)

Here's some update for body workout videos I made & posted on Youtube using mobile phone and edited with iMovie.






And I would like to just share one more drink that could boosts your energy which I am not sure I have mention before in my previous posts. I remember I mentioned about having sufficient carbohydrates or sugar intake before body workout could boost your energy to have longer stamina to perform better workout such as bread, oats, banana, chocolate or energy drinks, isotonic drinks such as 100 plus or another item I want to introduce today is Glucolin, glucose.



Its a powder which required to mix with cold or warm water to drink which I find it useful too. I used to drink but now I prefer more on eating sufficient food to gain energy 30 minutes to 1 hour before body workout time.

Want to lose weight and fats quickly?

As I mentioned before and being told by people too, 70% rely on your diet and only 30% rely on your workout. Eat, sleep and your lifestyle really could affect your body shape. Want to lose weight? it starts with food. The article below is mainly focus on how to lose weight and fats.

I got this Chinese article  through my friend's sharing. Eat smaller or lesser portion, but never skip a meal or fasting.  Breakfast eat like a king, lunch eat like a queen and dinner eat like a beggar if you want to lose weight correctly and still maintain a healthy eating. When I say eat like a king, doesn't mean eat until you feel bloated but just eat sufficient amount like 80% full with high carbohydrates and fibre food like wholemeal bread, oatmeal, rolled oats with yogurt, eggs match with either a cup of milk or a  half cup of fruit juice or an apple before having breakfast. You can also try have low fat milk mixed with oats, corns and some purple sweet potato cubes.

Our body minimum calorie of food needed to burn in our stomach is around 1200 calories which is just enough to support our heart rate pumping to our body parts. Thus, skipping meals totally without eating anything is totally wrong and will cause yourself fainted before you can even really lose your targeted weight loss. You may eat less and smaller portion of a meal and have 5 meals a day to avoid feeling hungry throughout a day.

Try eat on time especially dinner because if you had late dinner and go to sleep by having food  in your stomach, your stomach tends to convert the food into sugar. But if you are sleeping with empty stomach,  your body tends to use your body fats convert into sugar.

To cut fats, you need to eat less sugar, less fats/oily food and eat food which is high in protein such as lean meat or fish and prawn meat. But if you have allergy to seafood, then just choose to eat lean meat or you can go vegetarian of consuming protein from veggies. Do you know that one full cup of orange juice has higher sugar than coffee. So, unless you are planning to use that amount of sugar as energy for body workout on that day or people who thin like me not wanting to lose further weight, you have to avoid or reduce the amount of fruit juice you drink. Hence, you are also not recommended to eat fruits as your meal as you might end up eating more sugar than you normally does without notice.

Here's a link showing calories comparison between coffee and orange juice.

Also, you may want to reduce the white rice intake if you are planning to lose weight. White rice are easy to raise your blood sugar like bread and pasta although they are high carbs which good for body building or sports activities as carbs convert into sugar or energy while we doing workout. About this statement, I always think that "how much you eat is how much you need to burn from your exercise in order to keep in shape" instead of going for complete fasting or skipping meal which is completely wrong idea.

The next thing which I mentioned before previously, is if you are able to do body workout once you wake up in the morning will be the best time for burning on body fat instead of carbohydrates because the carbohydrates are being used up in your 6-7 hours sleep during the night. (Source: here)

To enhance and further improve your weigh loss plan into short time, exercise is required especially cardio workout. You are required to do longer cardio workout around 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cardio workout can be aerobics, jogging, running, swimming, skipping and cycling.  For those who have heavier weight, jump squats, running, jogging and skipping for long hours or doing improperly might caused bad impacts on your joints such as knee or feet. You can either try wear a knee guard, or do cycling or walking fast pace instead of running to reduce the impact. Or, you can do aerobics or a combined cardio of these few different cardio within 45 minutes to 1 minutes. You may have to avoid doing jump squats or skipping for avoiding having problems with your joint. Swimming or working out in the pool is better or safer cardio to avoid joints pain due to the water pressure or water buoyancy.

Doing workout right and correctly can also helps you see the result faster.

Here's a video on a intense 6 minutes workout on losing your love handle and getting abs. Take note, love handle is not V-line abs.

Update on life and workout.

After entering the second month of my probation job as creative marketing, I started to get use of certain routine or a kind of lifestyle I am living for now. Trying to wake up on time to prepare own breakfast, shower, dress up, walk to train station, getting little sweaty and catch the train and bus on time to office for work before 9 a.m.. I have felt the goods and bads of taking train everyday, observe every one of us as human beings on train doing some selfish and some kind actions happening in train.

I have watched people trying to squeeze into the train no matter how full the train has been already filled, showing how selfish are we just so that we can go to work on time and we throw away our shame and face, being bold and forgotten what is the human/moral values. I have seen some people giving way and seats to the needy ones. I have seen a blind man with one eye heavily infected and eye popping out and trying to find his way to make the right call with his mobile phone. I have seen the rich and the poor taking the same train. In short, taking public transport make me and you see the daily lives of the people putting together with contrast, which i think is special of how life surrounds me or us with things like such to remind us something or make me learn from observation of things in life.

Other than working the usual weekdays and getting all dry up by squeezing creative juice and losing my inspiration to create, my desire of wanting to earn more pocket money at my current state, made me continue wanting to find some part time modelling photo shoot and also thinking to sell my next e-photobook. Well, its not all just about the money. Its also something i enjoy doing other than my job when everything goes smooth together. =)
And now I have a deal with Totomomo site open for my fans to sponsor items from Totomomo for my next coming e-photobook which themed "Fantasy/Not Myself" which will be kinky theme and also input my personal concept about fantasy and reality to deliver a small message before browsing the fantasy images like how I did the arrangement from the first e-photobook.


I have people message me about what items can be sponsor from Totomomo or what is my limit to wear for photoshoot such as cock ring or thongs. I will say I can wear that but I will match with another item to get it semi transparent covered or have something peekaboo.


This is my first e-photobook and still selling. To buy via Paypal or more information click the link below:

Starting to cope back being active on my facebook page and blog and promoting and selling not many, but still some e-books, and finding sponsors and partners to work with from photographer, to props and concept, ideas, have made me busy lately and slightly lack of sleep. It has put me into doubt and questioning myself what is really best that suits me and make me happy working for, what job can make me happy and keep me going, able to keep me survive? I question myself am I capable of becoming a gym instructor and also a model?  etc etc... I started thinking about studying gym instructor course. I just only know that I enjoy doing workout and also photoshoots. Of course I still do enjoy doing painting, drawings, design and handcraft.

And I saw this article "Interview with Todd Sanfield":
http://www.myportiswaspsays.com/2014/01/a-new-interview-with-todd-sanfield-is.html?m=1
and I realised, it can be done and I am not alone. But I know its going to be really tough. And Todd Sanfield prove to me you can have many dreams but only matters is how you manage it. Am I going to follow and believe on what I am doing multi tasking can achieve success? I still think twice. Not everyone have the same strength and limitation.

I have met a few facebook friends and fan that I have never met before after I have moved to this rented place, and working in KL. I felt happy and lucky for that because after the long day working at office, I get pretty tired and out of drive.

Talk about my workout lately,  I haven't got a fix workout routine weekly. I workout 2- 3 times weekly. If I doing my workout at the condo gym, I will do cycling 100 meter to warm up my body, then I do stretching hands and legs and my back. Then I will do some kicking and some hips workout and planking. Then, I only start using the machine do chest, back, legs again, and lastly abs workout. Each other body parts workout I do 3 sets, each set 10 repetitions,  except for abs workout, I will do 4 sets and each set 20 repetitions. But sometimes I want to stress my muscle more, I will add a few extra reps. I hope this answer to people who had asked me about my workout in personal message before.







I hope I can get more photographers to work with for my e-photobook or for their portfolio too. I also looking for makeup artists or stylists to work with. And I also interested to look for publisher who is willing to publish my e-photobook into hardcopy, let me know the rates and details.
