Amusing Thursday

As the title states.... I'm still amused at how this evening's workout went.

Initially, the plan was to meet at 6:15pm (Adrian, KS, Ann and I)
Then at 4:30pm, Hiap Wei's phone call came saying that he's heading to the gym NOW.
I arrived at the gym around 5:10pm. Feizal startled me by appearing out of no where and we found Hiap Wei already Benching.

Amusing Scenario #1:
We chatted a bit and lazed around till all of a sudden, Yong Wei walked in, then Mark.
Then the whole weights section was populated simultaneously with all 5 of us dumb-belling away with our own workouts... It would have definitely been a priceless picture/video! IF ever that happens again, we defo should take a picture! Totally blog worthy *LOL*
My Shoulder Combo Workout (3 sets x 15 reps):
- Dumbbell Lateral Raise
- Alt One Arm Raise

Amusing Scenario #2:
We - Hiap Wei, Yong Wei, Mark, Feizal, Sunil, and I, started running at 5:40pm. Feizal and I were gonna cut the run short and then me joining Adrian and gang for round 2. Well, that was the initial plan. BUT, AMUSINGLY, it started pouring just 8 mins into our run. Suddenly, Hiap Wei and Yong Wei remembered their mom's advice of not getting rained on.. so our run turned into a sprint in the rain! Feizal and I short-cutted.. haha..
Got back to RLC after the short 15mins run. So there goes all runs for today.

Back at the gym, Hiap Wei, Mark, Yong Wei, Sunil, and I did 1 set of Spartacus (Hiap Wei's modified style):
- Goblet Squat (2 x 20)
- Mountain Climbers (2 x 20)
- Single Arm Dumbbell Swing (2 x 15 x 2 hands)
*Feizal joins in*
- T-Push Ups (20 reps)
- Spider Push Ups (20 reps)
- Split Jump (2 x 20)
-  Plank Position Row (2 x 20)
- Dumbbell Push Press (2 x 20)
- Plank (2 x 1 min)

Next, 5 Ab Stations were set up (Hiap Wei, Mark, Adrian, Uncle Mike and I):
- Decline Crunch (2 x 50)
- Incline Leg Raises (2 x 25)
- Seated Leg Tuck (2 x 50)
- Cable Crunch@15 (2 x 20)
- Ab Roll-Out (2 x 20)

*Abs were SO OUCHed!*

Amusement #3: (more like...annoyance!)
Left the gym to swim for an hour.
Changed, showered and entered half body into the pool when....
*slash of lightning happened---followed by the lifeguard's whistle---and hurried out of the pool*
Sat on the bench under the big umbrella for a few minutes trying to digest wth just happened... It stopped pouring for half an hour now...slight drizzle, that's about it... but still!
Gave up waiting coz the lightning was getting consistent. Showered and sauna-ed. But didn't stay too long coz overly hungry!

-End-

**Looking forward to tmr morning's training! Hopefully no more weird happenings with the weather**
