I had my 7th workout yesterday. We practiced our soccer kicking, did strength training, ping pong, and the sauna. A lighter day, but still enough to burn at least 300 calories. Today is the first resting day I’ve had. Actually, my buddy and I were wanting to workout, but my grandparents called me and they [...]

Yet another workout today. Still fun, although we are starting to push ourselves harder at the sports (a touch of competition is good!). Our ping pong skills have improved dramatically, I might add.

Well, I have just finished my first buddy workout! Overall, we were exercising for 2 hours! Of course, the time passed MUCH faster having a partner than if I had been doing it alone. In fact, we were both surprised when we saw how much time had passed. So, obviously, people aren’t wrong when they [...]
