We're almost at the end of winter here and normally this time of the year would make me feel excited about being able to wear more revealing clothes but with the lock down and the general feeling of doom and gloom, there will be none of it this spring. Some good news though, Melbourne's new COVID-19 cases were down to double digits for the first time yesterday since the start of the second wave which means the strict Stage 4 lock down and mandatory mask-wearing are both working their magic.
People who know me will know that I'm a person of simple needs and in this depressing period, all I ask for other than staying employed is the ability to dine out again, visit my Mum (i.e. no travel restrictions) and for gyms to re-open. Talking about gyms, as expected, with only a resistance band and body weight at my disposal, muscle-growth has somewhat ceased. All I'm doing now is to try my best to maintain what I have.
I started the "Through Facebook" posts almost half a year ago to re-live those fond memories of my home which all seem so far away now. This last post of the series features flesh and fitness which I hope will delight people who do read my blog (I often wonder if there's anyone who takes notice of my posts). These pictures also serve to remind me that I can always get back to that state if I put in the effort (but the gyms have to be open!).
I really miss everything I've posted in this series and look forward to experiencing them all over again when this pandemic craziness ends. I wish all of you well and that you continue to stay safe and healthy.
Mandatory first gym selfie back home. Somehow the humidity managed to seep through the air conditioning. I never used to sweat so much in Australian gyms! #StickyButHot #ToplessSelfieSoon
What better way to usher in the new year than a long early morning jog to sweat all the bad things of 2019 away? #WetAndHotNow #Happy2020
An empty gym already made my day, and then I see the pool with this view. Man, why haven't I discovered this branch sooner? #GymNowPoolLater
I didn't expect myself to spend more than 3 hours in the gym but when it's such a nice one, you've gotta do it all and be prepared, I'll be in you again same time next week! #FullWeightsRoutine #TreadmillRun #Swim #SteamRoom
Talk about beautiful skylines and even more beautiful company!
The view from Lazarus Island. #PerfectDay
Nude @ Lazarus. Roy and Garry, we miss you! #BeingFree #BestFeelingInTheWorld #FacebookPleaseDontBanMe
Need to chill in aircon after a day toasting nude in the sun and so we've opted for cheap off-peak karaoke. #StillHot
My first time here and I must say I'm impressed!
OK, gym routines finished for this week and so I can finally pig out for my KL trip starting tomorrow! #IGymToEat #AreTheseTooSkimpyAndTightAsGymAttire
No lunch after a full weights-plus-cardio workout and straight for my "topless KTV" recording session. #HappyWithTheResults #ButColdAndHungry #VideoScreenGrab
Back to the grind after 3 days of excess. #WorkItOrLoseIt
Guess who got his red packet already? Happy Lunar New Year of the to all! Huat ah! #除夕#鼠年快乐
7% body fat, 88% muscles, metabolic age 15 years younger than my real age, full marks on BMR (basal metabolic rate) and have an overall "slim muscular" rating. Not bad for an old man!
So which one suits me the best? #PartyHarness #WearingSomethingButItsLikeWearingNothing
Getting my tan line at a near-empty public pool. What do you think of the result? #IKnowTheDangersButWhatTheHeck
