This is the latest position of my back. The second phase of dieting is on. Bodybuilding has become a passion in the last 5 months... and it's going to stay that way for quite some time!

Long long gap

Sorry folks - a really long gap this time. I shan't make any excuses. Just too busy due to the oncoming annual vacation of our Court.   I'm into the fourth month of driving and bodybuilding! Getting benefits in both. Initially I was getting confused since there's so much literature on bodybuilding on the net. However, I'm getting somewhat accustomed to understanding the needs of my body.  As far as driving is concerned, the teething troubles of the new driver seem to be over. Now I'm trying out techniques in 'hypermiling' i.e. extracting more mileage out of your car than the brochures say. E.g. using the brakes and gas pedal (accelerator) less, shifting the gear to neutral and idling long before you reach traffic signals and so on.  Hey.. saw a movie in the meantime which touched me. It's 'Mumbai meri jaan', using a cliche from an old Hindi movie song to good effect. It's about the change in lives of different cross-sections of the Mumbaikars...

Long time no see.

Haven't been coming to the net much lately. How're you all? Two new things. The swift has been kissed on the left rear by a bully bus.. became very sad but recovered. Driving it with full care though! Anyway, the second new thing is my restarting my exercise regimen. Bought weights and started full-blast with a very good schedule by John Little, a reputed bodybuilder, which I found on the net. Already slimmed a bit and feeling more energetic by the day. Driving my own car - the challenge and the responsibility - is changing my outlook altogether. It's as if I've been catapulted from the back-seat of a somewhat passive existence to the driving-seat of life - participating actively and interacting with various situations like never before. It is really amazing how a little change in the pool of life brings with it ripples of unforeseen changes in unexpected corners of it. Anyway folks, too many deadlines to meet tomorrow for Court. See you later. By the way, here's a...

Gym continuum

Lost 2.5 kgs in 1 month! Gym, what else? And of course, minimal sweetmeat consumption. Gradually I'm feeling the effects of an about 1 hour 45 min workout 6 days a week - cardio (cardio-vascular exercises) and weight training combined. I've even taken a challenge with a 'wise-guy' of the gym, who's been working out for 3 years and has a good physique, that I'll build a six-pack abs by February, 2009. He still doesn't have it and naturally is on a ridicule mode. Wait till he sees my abs next Feb! As usual, I haven't left any second option and since I've thrown the challenge I'll meet it. So it's a rigorous routine now; so much so that even on our vacation tour of 10 days I lost half a kilo instead of gaining any. I trained for about 2 1/2 hours yesterday and hope to do at least 2 hours daily (except Sundays and Gym closures). I'm also beseeching our gym trainer to give me a strict diet. Of course I'll have the half-dozen pack, but the...
