my new 20kg dumbbell set #shorts


CDCASA Adjustable Dumbbells, 44 Lbs Free Weight Set, Dumbbell Barbell 2 in 1, Solid and Configurable with Rubbery Protective Cover, Easy Assembly, and Save Space, Home Gym Equipment for Men and Women

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I already bought a 40KG dumbbell adjustable set that you can also turn into a barbell. But, after I set my barbell, I find it kind of a hassle to change it back to be used as a dumbbell. So, I decided to get another 20kg dumbbell set instead.

If you have been reading my blog, I've also bought myself a folding exercise bench. I'm really loving it. I bought one that also includes the ability to train up my legs. There's also a pad that I can use for my biceps. That's why I bought the extra dumbbell.

I can use the barbell set for my chest, biceps, shoulders, triceps, backs and quickly go to my barbell if I want to mix it up to do other parts of my body. The weights that are set on my barbell are also different than on my dumbbell too.

The extra weights can also be used to add up when I'm progressing. Again, I don't want to be big. I just want to be fit and importantly get my six-packs back. I'm also slowly remembering back all that I have learned when I do weights at my school gym with my schoolmates decades ago.

Me and my schoolmates, I used to train together almost every night at the school gym. We even created our own schedules to work on specific parts of our bodies. We love to read bodybuilding magazines, read up on diets and training by world body-building champs.

One of our physical instructors told us that since we don't have the money to buy expensive vitamins, we should just eat whatever we can or have to beef up. And, we actually did beef up. Okay, we weren't big but our body did improve.

We did all the basic exercises and more. I was also training my chin-ups and was really happy that I can now do standard chin-up without any support. One day, I feel strong and told my friend to let go of my legs and I managed to do more than 10 without any problem.

Training at the school gym helped prepare me for my military service. I was already strong but running was my weakness as I have short breaths. Yeah, it really brings back memories all those years ago. That's why, even though I'm older now, I feel it's time to train up again.

Right now, I'm just training up for fun. Just to stay fit, have a nice body and relax. My younger days are over but at least, I don't want to grow old and look like a damn cow. People keep talking about my big belly. So, I've finally decided to do something about it.

I do have to be careful when doing weights and don't want to hurt my already bad knees and back. That's part of the reason I'm not interested in getting big. Doing heavy lifting might make it worse for me and end up in a hospital bed. Again.

my new home gym folding exercise bench


K KiNGKANG Adjustable Weight Bench Utility Workout Bench for Home Gym, Foldable Incline Decline Benches for Full Body Workout

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Well, I finally got my own folding exercise bench. And, I specifically bought one that also includes leg training. I don't really want big muscles. I just want to stay fit and at least have my six-packs back. Like when I used to have back then.

When I was in technical school, I used to go to the gym with my schoolmates. We'll come back to school at night to use the gym. The gym isn't officially open. My mate kinda got permission for us to use it. We even use a stick to open up the door. Lol.

One day, one of the school physical trainers heard us and check the gym. Luckily, he recognizes us and actually supports that we wanted to train up. Only that, to make sure we clean up the place after using it. A few months later, he even complimented that I have improved my physique.

Personally, I was actually training to prep for my military national service. One of the things that I have improved was my chin-up. I could only do 1 or 3. But after a few months, I could finally pass the basic 12 chin-up test. I was so ecstatic that day.

One thing, I didn't really train up was my running. But, I also have short breaths. And, I only learn or realized recently that my nose was broken. I always had breathing problems and my broken nose had actually blocked my breathing.

I still have a problem with my nose and it also causes my left ear to be blocked. This means I can only hear in my right ear. Oh, I also have a slipped disc and both bad knees. One of the reasons why I'm not interested in getting big.

Of course, I'm not getting any younger too. One good thing is nowadays I cycle to and fro from home to work. I save some travel fare money and also get a good sweaty workout. In fact, I've been steadily losing weight from around 75 to 71.3 kg.

My target is simple. To get below 70kg and maybe maintain my last good weight of 63-65kg. Also, to get back my six-packs. Sometimes, I like seeing older gents that are slim and still look healthy. When you ask about their age, they're actually already in their mid-70s.

I'm loving cycling especially when I'm actually starting to lose weight. Although, I need to do more than a total of 20 mins of cycling every day. My workplace isn't that far. Another reason I decided to cycle is because of my bad knees and cycling is light-impact.

I do feel pain in my left knee when starting. I've never gone to check it up. It's not the bone or I won't be able to walk. I do have trouble when going down the stairs. Doing weights and cycling is my plan for an all-around, well-being fitness regime.

my new Dumbbell Barbell Adjustable Convertible Dumbbell Set


Adjustable Dumbbells Barbell Set, 33/55LB Free Weights Fitness Barbell Set, Dumbbell Combination Weightlifting 3 in 1 Fitness Equipment with Connecting Rod for Gym Home Office (33LB Black)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Finally! Got a new dumbbell with an adjustable barbell set. I've been wanting to get them for a long time. It's only recently that I started to exercise again. Mainly, because I wanted to get rid of my big tummy. I yearn for the days when I had a six-pack. Lol!

After finishing my national duty in the military and being a civilian, I didn't really do much training anymore. I also had a slipped disc and was advised not to do any standard sit-ups. That's probably when my stomach started to get bigger and bigger.

Isn't it kinda weird that you don't notice how your tummy slowly gets all bloated throughout the years? Everyone, been talking about how big my stomach is and so, after my recent birthday, I decided to start exercising again. But, I still had to be careful.

I had to start slow because of my back and knees problem. I'm also getting older and sometimes you forget you're not 20 something in the military doing all that running and jumping. I also used to train in the gym but I find that mental toughness missing.

I also got myself a new job and what's great is that it's near my house. I've always wanted to get a job near my area so that I can cycle to work. Cycling is also a great way to train your fitness and even lose weight. I actually already lost some weight and I felt so excited.

Now, I'm using my new folding mountain bike that's more powerful and faster than my other first foldable bike. Okay, that's my personal opinion after using both of them to and fro to work. Even my colleague said that the mountain bike is much more suitable for me.

Cycling is a low-impact exercise and is great for my bad knees. Although, I can still feel pain in my left knee when cycling. I'm starting to love cycling and when I reach home, now I can train with my new dumbbell set too. Yesterday, I tried them out and it sure feels great to do weights again.

I like the kettle design and I've never used it before until yesterday. Great for my front shoulders. You can also use it for your stomachs. One thing though is that, I think, I need to buy another set so that I can use the dumbbells as I'm already setting it like a barbell.

I'm actually waiting for the exercise bench that I ordered but it hasn't arrived yet. I can do a lot of the standard dumbbell and barbell exercises with the bench. I bought one that you can do leg exercises and also support for the biceps.

I'm not really aiming to get big muscles. Just an athletic fitness body with a nice 6 packs. I'll have to be careful when doing all these exercises as like I've said, I have a slipped disc and bad knees. I don't want to end up in pain in the hospital again.
