We chance upon this amazing website which inspire us to start the 30day challenge today. Thank you bodyrock.tv!! :)

Video link: Day 1 workout

Fit Test:

Set your interval timer to 50/10 and complete as many as the following exercises in the time as you can. We will be using our interval timers in every single workout of this 30 day challenge and it is basically the only must have item for BodyRocking. Our timers let us know when to switch exercises and the “beeps” keep us all pushing harder then a regular clock ever could.

We have downloaded 'Seconds Free' app to help us with the interval training.

Here's the log of our fitness level..

Our 1st Terry Fox Run!! :) 15 Jan 2012
5Km: 40mins

My fellow unicorn was my inspiration, the reason we did this run was because cancer took our loved ones away.

I never thought i would ever do a long distance run. Always failing 2.4km NAPFA runs.. clocking above 20mins during school days.

Unicorn found out about the run.. 'Lets do it!' I trained since Dec 2011.. However, I have overactive tibialis anterior (front calf muscle), it will cramp up. I Increased my water and fruits intake.. The main factor was my running style.

To run properly: elbows bent 90°, lean your body forward, start jogging slow at your own pace, swing arms and land on ball of your foot. When running, you want to conserve energy, so keep all muscles relax, focus at one point and enjoy the run. When i'm tired, i use my arms to propel me forward.

Set an aim, if thats what you wanna do, work towards your goal and do it. If I can do it, you can do it too! :) (im the living example!) Be determined.

Alohaaaa Everybody!! Ooo after a year of hiatus from this blog.. We are glad that 2011 have whizzed past. It was a turbulence.. Nonetheless we had each other for support. I <3 you fellow unicorn!! :)

So.. 2012. We are back. Mentally & Physically stronger.. One of our goals is to transform our body - losing weight, toned, most importantly staying healthy & be fit. We will then inspire others around us.

We do not have the perfect built or the greatest metabolism. We will strive hard to keep ourselves fit and keep each other motivated throughout the year.

You'll be seeing posts of various exercise challenges record.. It is a log for both of us to keep track.

We'll share couple of things about ourselves, our diet, workout regime and progress along the way.

Be the change you want today.
