All In & All-Out

First of all, these grainy pictures bother me, haha. Though mas nakakabother my ka-OC-han when before I really don't care about picture-quality, carebears kung tabingi, putol, blur, lol. Anyway, that day Pax and I tried to take photos padin kahit na bigla nalang umulan. We just finished a meeting and on our way to the Delsey event.

Isa pang anyway, so the past days hindi ko alam kung ano ang sumapi sakin at bigla nalang akong nagpursigi mag gym. The first day, last Monday, I was dragging myself to finally use the 3-month Gold's Gym GC that I won last year. But since then ...I haven't missed a day na hindi nag gym.

Okay, so here are my theories! That the drive to go to the gym has something to do with..

1) My new workout clothes. I now appreciate the difference of Adidas' Climacool technology vs my normal workout clothes. With the Adidas pieces, comfortable padin ako even when sweating a lot in the gym jog-machine, haha. They also fit me well, I get bothered pag ang katabi ko sa treadmill nahuhubaran na ng shorts. :p (peace!). Also, ang cute and stylish lang talaga nila.

2) The chill vibe! Whenever I use the gym stationary bike, I have this pleasant view of the hotel's poolside. Iniimagine ko nalang nagba-bike talaga ako sa nature, damang dama lalo na pag umuulan! Hehe. I also like that there's no feeling of pressure here, naeenjoy ko sya right now. :)

3) Friends! Hindi sadya to see Ely and Christine during my last 4 days in the gym. Although for me working out is more of a solo / me-time thing, masaya din whenever I see familiar faces (and ask tips from them, hehe, bilang nahihiya pa ako mag approach ng gym instructor. Hnnng. :p)

Ako, for the past 4 days, I just use the machines... 15 minutes jog - 30 minutes bike - 15 minutes jog. Sometimes, no breaks. I know I lack upper body workout with this kind of routine, but better nadin yan compared to the past months na I have no fitness life at all! Hindi ko naman goal ang abs, muscles, o pumayat, tipong ok na yung sakto lang. Also, para lumakas naman kahit konti cause supposedly I was expecting a surfing trip this weekend (although postponed, so more prep time!). Sana sipagin pa ako for the coming weeks!

Christine (and also my Ate) encouraged me to take the classes. Siguro in a month kakayanin ko nadin tong pag-hataw ni Christine, hehehe.

Kanina lang, I just (re) realized how helpful having your own workout playlist is. Nakaka-libang and indak while jogging, hindi ko napansin ang oras at naka 30 minutes na pala ako! Katy Perry forever, haha, listened via the very convenient Deezer. Nagkaroon ako bigla ng own world.;p What's in your Workout Playlist?

My idol Katy Perry, also wearing Adidas! < 3
