Hello there again I am back for my 10th blog post of the series and I am gonna keep it short this time as I am lacking some time to create a long post. Last time you have seen me increase in weight due to my diet so after I workout or the normal lifting I have done I decided to do some freeletics which is one of workouts gaining popularity as you don't need any equipment, it is gaining fame as you can do this workout at home as you don't need any kind of equipment. The only lifting you need to do is your body.
The Workout
In freeletics the workouts are straightforward your body weight is the only weight you are lifting. It is so simple that the only equipment you need is a straight and steady bar for you to do some pull ups with. Me being inside the gym fortunately gave me a lot of place to do pull ups with. So after I did my regular workout which are Chest and Biceps I decided to give this a go.
Exercise # 1
There weight free squats seems to be easy at first but when you are doing 50 reps at the same time you can't use your arms to gain momentum it adds up every rep you make. You can feel the burn as early as the start of you 20th rep. This squats also requires your thighs to touch your calves in order to complete a rep.
Exercise # 2 and 3
I did two kinds of pushups that day the normal one and the one for my shoulders. I have no problem doing the normal one as I always do it on my chest day. Keep in mind that the same 50 reps is needed in most of the workouts. The reps should be completed continuously without any rest in between reps in order to make the workout more effective.
This is the second pushup routine where the weight is carried mostly on your shoulders. As you can see my legs are bent and my knees are near at my face making the weight centered at my shoulders. Actually I need to do this while head standing but unfortunately I don't have the ability to do some head stands just yet.
Exercise # 4
This is the hardest workout for me. Jackknives requires your Torso and Legs to go up at the same time but seeing I have weak abdominal muscles I cannot do even a single rep with a proper form. If I want to get better I need to start doing this more often.
Exercise # 5
This is what they called Leg Levers and this is what I needed in order to get a stronger core. If I have a stronger core and better coordination with my legs I think I will able to do a perfect rep for my Jackknives. This is also a perfect workout if you want your lower abs to be more defined.
The Result
Yup nothing change. I think most of my readers lost hope by now as I only became successful during the early parts of my blog but for people who are still reading I hope that you notice that I am still continuing on my gym workouts even if I myself don't see any change yet. But mentally all I can say is I am a better person know.
Going to the Gym for me acts like my personal meditation tool. I feel good about myself and I often don't think about any problem even after I am done while working out. Also sharing you my experience in the gym helps me a lot as well as I am showing you the problem I am going too. I hope you like this post and I hope to see you in my next entry. That is all for now.

Hello. Keep it up. Don't give up.
Here is three advices if you want to really lose weight while building muscles as well.
One : you need to drink water with organic lemon juice (1 to 2 liters a day) and only eat organic fruits, vegetables and chicken(if you are a meat eater). No more bread/pasta/dairies/processed food.
Two : you need to walk at least one to three hours every day. Start with one, then grow from there.
Three : to your work out routine, daily add a circuit of one push up, one flexion and one pull up. Repeat. Do as much as you can everyday, increase the numbers through the days untill you reach one hundred.
Do that everyday for one month and see the result. 😊👍✊✌️
