Achievements !

Well I thought it was about time to start being happy about and sharing some achievements I NEVER thought possible. You know ! The ones that you pull off and just want to run around the gym high fiving everyone !!!!...

Although it's halfway through Round 3, I'm still surprising myself constantly... so here goes... (I'm adding in some from last Round too as they still amaze me)

  • My biggest achievement, of course, was coming 1st Place for Lean and Strong, Round 2, 2011.... This may actually be my biggest surprise.... I actually don't know if I class this as an achievement as such, as I didn't work towards this as a goal.... I didn't think about it once while I was doing Round 2.....I like to think of it more of a recognition of the work that I had done.....
  • Holding a wall sit for over 5 min (Round 2 - I'm now creeping closer to the 10min mark :) )
  • Being able to do underhand close grip chin ups with relative ease at any given time
  • 02/10/11 - I lasted a whole 90minute Spin/RPM class to raise money for the RSPCA. I personally raised $50 inc some donations from others to see if I could actually do chin ups. All up the class raised $250 to go to the animals :)
  • 07/10/11 - 55 push ups off the toes in one minute
  • 07/10/11 - I reached 14cm PASS my toes (stretch after EVERY workout people !!!!!)
  • 08/10/11 - 50kg Squat x 12 reps
  • 10/10/11 - I did 11 push ups off my toes with a clap off the bench. These are an Achilles Heel for me... I just don't seem to have explosive energy and was only able to pull of 1 or 2 at the most during Round 2.
  • 11/10/11 - Rowing 1km in 4min 16sec (I was well over 5min when I first ever tried this)
