Session 13 & 14 - Jeremy Yeo (Project SlimDown)

I’ve decided to combine 2 training sessions into 1 blog entry. I thought this is easier for our readers to see Jeremy’s one week progress in a glance. We measured his weight and to our surprise, his weight went down to 102.3kg. Initially he couldn’t believe the reading from the weighing scale, he tried positioning the scale at different places, looking for the perfect flat ground! The only reading he got from the scale is 102.3kg. He is convinced and seems to me that he is on the right track.

We planned to step up the training a little by increasing the intensity of the run and lesser rest time. Planned workout: 3 x 3 x 400m (with every 100m of striding and exercises with Theraband). However, we only managed to finish 2 sets of 3 x 400m.

The first set of exercises we did bicep curls, Triceps, Lateral raises and Punch-ups. After each 100m striding we did one exercise. So it’s 3 sets of each exercise. Yes, Jeremy turned pale even under his tanned skin after much exposure to the crazy sun rays!

Yes we do have many comments about the previous post regarding the stars covering the nips, so this time I'll post the raw footage of all the pictures, no Photoshop works on his body, FYI :)

And so it goes on, chest press, chest pull, straight hand pull down, single arm chest fly.

 

We finished the workout with Core stabilizers exercises (many like to call Planks). I introduce the basic positions and I will increase the intensity of the core workout when Jeremy is ready for it!

And the report:

Session 14 was a breeze for Jeremy. He was still suffering from D.O.M.S. after the previous session and requested that maybe he could do something easier. His request was granted and we did 9 rounds of easy jogging around the track. 3 rounds easy jogging for each set, with some legs exercises, since his aches only on the arms. So we did a short training session and finished the session with 1 min max rep for sit ups and back arches. And the results:
28 sit ups and 42 back arches!
And so the report from the watch:
