A Day of Badminton & Ping Pong
I met Ping Ding in Nanyang Polytechnic today to have a game of badminton and ping pong. The rest of Alum~9 could not make it due to various commitments. Supposingly, Mr. Walter was coming but at the thirteen hour, he told Ping Ding that he couldn't meet us. Nice try, Dude. You owe us a meal for next time.
As usual, badminton is one of my strengths. I made Ping Ding ran around the area, serving high aerial shots to her, causing her to miss the targets. Within an hour, she was tired and we changed to ping pong. Now, that's her strength sport and I was like.... don't mentioned it.
My serving sucked... my smacking also sucked... Worst!! Though I sucked throughout, the game went on and on until we realised we had spent 2 hours in ping pong continiously. It was a good game in terms of communication. Both of us were chatting non-stop for the entire session, as well as working on our wrists. At least, I improved at the end of the day. =]
During the chat, I've reflected on several things. One of it is the problems that I'm facing and from there, I've learnt that
distance is a factor towards commitment. Inclusive with my negative thoughts, I guess letting nature take its cause would be a good idea for the time being. Also, I found out that I have
an history of injuries, from top to toe that I maybe losing my fitness gradually. I've injuries on my ankles, kneecap, shoulders, neck, tailbone.... blah blah... and the list goes on and on. Gosh! I suck!!! Injury prone... Zzzz....
Training... I felt that I'm putting weight since I've stopped training after leaving the Academy. It was weekends soccer, sleep, swimming, sleep, then sleep for the weekdays and back to the routine again. No running, no weight-training etc. I felt my muscles are getting soggy. I need to start having gym sessions every week and I've come out with a perfect plan!!!
- Gym during my sleep off periods, which includes: >>>> 2.4km run (at least) - 10.0km run (at most)
>>>> Upper body training - (shoulders, chest, back etc.)
>>>> ABS!!! (Damn.... my previous 4 pack has shifted to 1... Zzzzz...)- Off days to rest; recover from fatigue- Work like a cow, dog, dragon or horse. Whatever animal you can name of that is hardworking will do. - Night shift day!! Sleep like a pig.... I need sleep, damn...Yup! I guess, this would be the perfect plan... Gonna try from next monday onwards.
Jia you, Nic aka. 尼姑拉屎 =.=
