Mwahaha...did some manga drawing earlier on and now, i think i kinda just found my favourite drawing style! I managed to sketch out this girl holding a gun in like under ten minutes, which was a new record! (since i'm always so slow at it :x)
And the girl was completely proportional too! (well..at least the face was) Which means that if you flip the paper and hold it up to the sky (and thus see the drawing from behind) it wouldn't look odd at all!
I can tell that i've been improving by leaps and bounds since i joined the class (oh...my head hurts...the ego inside is exploding...^_^"), but i think i've just hit JACKPOT a few hours ago! Heheheh...
Whew! Anyway just completed my monthly (yes...monthly) at-home-full-body-workout. It's a rather important set of exercises where the main purpose of it is muscle building! VERY important lol, since i'm, deep down inside, an egotistical exhibitionist (well..not THAT bad - and for people who don't know me, "egotistical exhibitionist" does NOT mean homosexual!! :|) and all i do in camp is nearly always running anyway.
Changed a few things though, since this's my first time doing this at my new home. And yes, if you've done your math, it means that i've been skipping this training for more than two months already. -.- Getting flabby...erps.
So, instead of pushups (reason: sian), i lifted 5kg weights elbow-on-thigh style, 80 times for each arm!
Instead of squats (reason: my knee feels creaky), i did 400 tiptoes!
Instead of crunches (reason: well..i dunno), i did 50 sit-ups!
Well...erm...to the "fitness-experts" out there, you can probably tell that my "exercise-substitutions" are very bad! :x The muscle groups that are being trained are like totally different...i'm missing out on my triceps, lower abs, gluteous muscles (the butt), etc, etc, and ermm..my thigh muscles..? (What ARE those muscles named, anyway??)
Plus i've yet to train my heart muscles too! Although all we do in camp was SUPPOSED to be running, i haven't run much at all, since i've been clearing my leave all this while! The last time i did any running was like last week: a measly 1.6km 0_o. And before that was the 21km run waaaay back in August. I shall run..erm..2.4km tomorrow! Well..provided those tiptoes didn't just kill my muscles for the rest of the week.. (Ouch...the ache...)
And, of course, there's really no substitution for my PULL-UP BAR, the one i had all to myself at my old home. I'm thinking of making a trip down to Parkway soon to get one, and who cares if anyone in the family tries to kick up a fuss.
To be safe, i'll just fix the pull-up bar at my toilet door, where it's painted concrete, and not on the other door frames, which are made of wood...so that if one day, for some odd reason, i have to remove the pull-up bar and the bar leaves an ugly little mark/scratch on our oh-so-beautiful home...well, we can just paint it over! >.<
In the meantime, though...any "fitness-experts" out there who know of ways to train those back and shoulder muscles while my pull-up bar is not fixed up yet? And hopefully without any equipment required?
And yes, like all "fitness-amateurs" out there, i want to see immediate results too!! Heheheh. :x
