Summer Schedule.

Well now that the exams are finished, what to do with nearly 4 months holiday. Personally, until the exam results come out i don't think i'll be able to fully relax. Wasn't the best semester, but i'm hoping i at least pulled through with all my subjects.

Until then i've planned a couple things out.
1. MKX3631
Its a internship program with Monash Uni and i'm hoping to find an internship somewhat related to social media, sports marketing or just something that might garner my interest. Need to get this completed asap.

2. Fitness
I don't know about anyone else, but exam period generally means a decline in fitness and increase in girth. So far this year has been decent. Starting out in Feb 2010 i weighed in at 90+ kgs. I managed to cut this down to around 82, but then i suffered a major back injury.
Rehab process took nearly 3 months but my fitness and strength is starting to come back. I've managed to cut myself down to 77kgs now (76kg prior to exams), but i've achieved one goal; completing 50 pull ups in less then 5 sets. First proper workout yesterday was just a light day but i managed to complete 20 pulls in the first set, 13 in the second, 11 in the third and 7 in the last.


Since ditching the bodybuilding program i feel a lot better. More fit, less pain in the joints and basically an improvement in overall fitness. Squats, Deadlifts, Power Cleans, Kettlebell exercises and a whole lot of body weight exercises and sled work.

Current goals are to achieve a bw of 75kgs, deadlift and squat 210 or more.

3. Maintain blog
I basically ditched this blog because i chose to switch assessment schemes, but i think it'll be a good way of documenting my 'journey'. I'll try and follow up with a few marketing issues here and there.
