Still managing to get some workouts in but not as many as I'd like. Travel can be hard and grueling some days and getting up the motivation to do anything after 12 hours of Asian travel is monumental. Add in the odd stomach problem, lack of facilities, parks and private areas and soon you realize it's been 5 days since your last workout. I feel a bit of deconditioning and motivation starting to slip in. The times that I do workout I feel great and the times I have long lay offs I feel like crap. Sore joints, stiffness, a heavy feeling, tiredness and a general unwell feeling takes affect. I don't kow how people don't exercise. It's only been 2 months since I left Sydney and I can feel it. That said it was only 2 months that I was in Sydney working out hard and look at the results I got.

Any bloody where I can...

Still working out here in Asia, doing what I can where I can. Been doing most of my workouts in some interesting places and I usually get plenty of looks and stares and if I'm lucky a crowd of spectators to look upon me. I sure would like to step into a gym though or even a park would be great.

Pull-ups! Finally after seemingly forever I found someplace to hang my rings from and do pull-ups. Found a nice little private spot in the back of the guest house I'm at, a bit of a cramped space but it did the job. Great form the whole way through.

Did this one outside of a Wat. Attracted a group of novice monks when I arrived and started to warm up and from there they drew my attention away from the task at hand. I had to pack up and find another place to work out as they were a bit too curious as to what I was up to.
