Fitness: 9th November 2023 + A Did You Know Fitness Question

Good Morning

I had mentioned that I would be starting with my Calisthenics basics in that last post. However, that has not happened yet. I did start with the reverse push-ups, arm balance, and likes, but that is far from what I want to achieve. Anyway, I will get that done too.

For now, my runs and gym continue. I have bulked up a bit, and all my regular T-shirts have become tight. I know it is supposed to be a good thing, but I would love to slim down and tone. I guess that will happen as the fats give way. So, we are on track.

Anyway, what was my schedule like today?

Today was gym day, and I went all-out, high-intensity, non-stop reps of chest and shoulder. Boy, I was sweating like crazy. And we have just entered the winter season, so to sweat means I had really pushed myself. I loved it.

In all possibility, I will be off to the gym tomorrow as well. I will reserve running for Saturday and Sunday. But there is one other thing that I will do throughout the day today. And that will be planks and reverse push-ups between my work schedule. It is time for me to get started with Calisthenics as well. Let’s see how that goes.

Winding up my morning schedule is never complete with a few sessions of Ho’oponopono. And that’s what I did. Here is my write-up on the topic for those wanting to know more about Ho’oponopono.

Have fun reading and practicing.

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

Namaste.

Did You Know?

About a year back, I had written about the abdominal plank record belonging to George Hood of the USA. The timing was an impressive and astounding 8 hours 15 minutes and 15 seconds. What is even more astounding is that this is not the record anymore.

Daniel Scali of Australia is the new abdominal plank record holder. Daniel stayed in the plank position for 9 hours 30 minutes and 1 second. That’s more than an hour over the previous record.

Both George and Daniel are people to look up to, as George was 62 years old when he made his record, while Daniel has Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), leaving his left arm in constant pain!

Respect!
