Aldrin got lobang for the TRX so he managed to get me 1 set. but trying to set the damn thing up is a real pain.... after half an hr still couldnt set it up properly - will bring it with me when i see Aldrin during next appt with him so that he can show or help me do it. With Bodylastics it was so e...

Trying to experiment with as many types of functional exercises as possible with the least amount of home gym eqpt that takes up space ie weights. My workouts are solely at home, late at night & during weekends. Presently using Bodylastics Strongman Edition, Doorway pull-up bar & Power-push up. Thin...

OK - update re my progress.... but before that I must say that I haven't seen Aldrin for the last 3 wks: i was down with a bad flu for about 1.5 weeks, after that Aldrin was (& still is) on course on weekends. I could only see him on Saturdays fr 2pm onwards, what with now seemingly ridiculous workl...

Aldrin....

like Xarope said it's a lifestyle change.... for myself it's a no-brainer - do i want to end up as stroke patients like my parents? NO!!! Do i want to be on statins & other medications that some friends my age (40s to 50s) are on?? NO WAY!!! Do i want to lift & have an active lifestyle, enjoy my lif...

Ok, just an interim update - met with the PT cum rehab therapist that Calvin fr HWZ recommended. He turned out to be an Opt trained guy - level 2. knows Ben, Herman & most of the Opt trained folks so probably fr one of the earlier batches. turned out that Peter also owes him money.... he's presently...

Speaking of which - who is this Wayne guy in HWZ?? trained for less than 2yrs, makes some good gains & talks big...... probably never kena injured before so thinks the world of himself...

didnt meet up with Herman as planned - had a last minute meeting so had to cancel the appt.

just as well cos after that i received an e-mail fr Calvin Chin's PT cum rehab specialist who seems pretty knowledgeable & experienced....

Will be making an appt with this guy that Calvin Chin fr HWZ highly recommended. Had some e-mails with him describing my condition in detail - seems pretty knowledgeable & experienced from his e-mails & he's a PT cum rehab specialist....

Will let u guys know how it turns out...

Ok - just spoke to Herman on the phone & fixed a tentative appt to see him after CNY.... keeping my fingers crossed that he'll be able to help me rehab so that I can train hard again.... eg doing dips between chairs & pull-ups with 15kg easily at 70 kg bodyweight... I'll be hitting 52 this yr but to...
