Day 50 Pics: Ohh Brother....

12 Week Fat Loss Challenge

Start: November 8, 2006
Finish: January 31, 2007

Day 50 of 84

Status: Round 6: Phase 1: Day 2

G'day,

My brother and I did our first ever workout together! We went to a local gym in Brisbane and did some "Fat Loss Circuit Training" HIIT cardio and "core combo." My brother got his Australian PGA Pro card 3 weeks ago. I'm real proud of you mate.

Me and my brother really focused on "the core" of abs, lower back and obliques. My bro knows that this area is extremely important for golfers. This is for two reasons, firstly the speed and power of your golf stroke is largely determined by the amount of strength you posess in your core. Secondly, and equally important, exercising your core regularly can help to prevent injuries in this critical area.

Anyway, today my bro was already feeling it...especially in his legs (we did some hardcore lunges!) He could barely stand up by the end of the day. I told him about DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) and how the sooner the soreness comes the fitter you are. He was happy to hear that.

In fact, my bro may become my first personal training client (I will receive my certification very soon). I have a lot of exciting idea I'd love to implement in personal training. I want to make it more results based by using new twists on accountability, discipline and motivation so that clients who put the effort in will see massive results in a short period of time.

Gotta go now, will be hitting Dreamworld and/or Wet 'n' Wild today.

Peace, AJ
