Monday Exercise

Yesterday I start my to exercise again after four days break. It was a heavy rain but I manage to arrive early in the gym. My knee still sore because of last week friendly game so to jog on the treadmill is not a good option. Because I target for cardio exercise so I ride the bicycle. I set the time to 20 minutes, 80kg and level 8. After that I did weightlifting and thigh and knee exercise for about 10 minutes. Suddenly the rains stop and I went to join the football training with my friend. I still not satisfied with yesterday progress but at least I already work out after having four days break....

Fitness and Football

On Monday, I had a football friendly. This match was held as preparation and indicator to our team capabilities before tournament in early June. I only taste the first half and after that I have been sideline. So this week no full time football. I got a few chances to score but wasted. I only can say the team still not solid for that tournament.The bad thing was, I started to feel my knee injury again. I am finished with glucosamine and stopped doing weight training to focus on cardio training. But Tuesday was another great day to me. I bought glucosamine in the morning and in the evening I started my cardio training again. So yesterday I had 5 rounds of football field. Take a break and suddenly I had a chance to jog with ex-professional footballer. So I make another 5 rounds. Total I had 10 rounds of football field yesterday. It is a big achievement in my adult life. The last time I ever had 20 rounds of football field was back in 90's. I feel the different. I feel the fitnes...

Fit and Fitter 2

Again for seven days I completed no smoking challenge. The motivation behind that is "I want to play football for full time", "I want to show my potential" and "I am a good player, don't look down on me". Monday: Jog 5 rounds of football field. Tuesday: Jog 5 rounds of football field. Wednesday: Full time football match against one of the top team in the state. Thursday: Jog 5 rounds of football field. Friday: Jog 5 rounds of football field. So my key performance indicators are achieved this week. I am happy that my fitness level start to increase because I can play full time football. That's prove my cardio exercise has shown something positive. OK. Let's wait for this week progress. Cheers!...

Work On Your Cardio

We always wondered sometime when is the suitable time for cardio exercise.  Put it into simple way, both low and high intensity exercises will help you to burn off body fat.  The question here is which is the most effective to burn off more body fat. When scientists first discovered that during intensive exercises, your body burns glycogen, which is a form of stored carbohydrates that are stored in your liver and muscles for energy.  During low intensity exercises, your body will burn a lot of fat. If your wondering whether or not it works, the answer is no because there are so many obese people still around.  Even though they are working out with low intensity routines, it still makes you  wonder how it can be. The scientists were right when they said the human body burns more body fat during low intensity exercises like walking or swimming.  During a high intensity exercise such as running, the body will burn a lot more calories.  Even if some of the calories burn...
