Saito defends title at Achilles Formula Drift Malaysia 2012

Over the weekend, I’ve busied myself with some drifting action at the Achilles Formula Drift Malaysia 2012. And here I get to share some of the results as well as photos with fans of drifting or to the Japanese racers, Dorifto ….

Prior to the race, I got to sit down with Manabu ‘Max’ Orido and Daigo Saito to talk to them about the race and what fans can expect and both of them relish going against each other again on our Malaysian circuit to see who truly can reign dominant here. The pressure’s on Daigo as he was the defending champion from the previous season that was held at Dataran Merdeka. (more…)

Week 8 at Body Express Subang Avenue

8 weeks gone by just like that and there’s just 2 more weeks to go for my 10 weeks transformation program with Leonardo Azevedo, yes, there’s progress to the amount of weight I’ve shed and I’ve also had people coming up to me to say that they could see I’ve slimmed down a lot and putting on muscles which just makes me more motivated to do better. The last week and this week was a more focused 2 weeks as we were focusing on 2 different area of my body to work on each day. The normal routine would be Triceps and Chest, Biceps and Back, and then it’s Legs and Shoulders.

For the 2 weeks, I was quite happy with my own progress as I increased the weight limit for each time I work on each sets but I wasn’t quite that happy when it comes to the losing weight part of the program, maybe I’m eating wrong or maybe I’m not pushing more than I’m supposed to but the weight drop has been little since the start of week 7 compared to the dramatic drop of weights I experience between Week 1 and Week 6.

Energizer Night Race 2012 @ Sepang F1 Circuit

Over the weekend (Saturday Night to be exact), I took part in the Energizer Night Race 2012 held at the Sepang International Circuit, representing a celebration of Energizer’s new global campaign, the enthusiasm of the running community, and a groundbreaking partnership with Kiwanis Malaysia.

The 3rd year of the event seem to be way much better than the farce that happened last year with a better definition of where we get what and so forth. There’s no rush, no clueless runners not knowing where to go (except for those who doesn’t seem to know how to read simple English, I had one coming up to me asking me where’s the collection station for the headlights while she was standing there looking straight at it). The race, which is in its third consecutive year, saw the runners racing on the same track used by local and international motorsports stars while wearing unique Energizer LED headlights, transforming the Sepang International Circuit into a breathtaking “river of light” for participants and spectators alike.

Week 3 @ Body Express

It’s been 3 weeks since I first started my work-out regime at Body Express and under the guidance of Leonardo De Azevedo in his very own customized 10 weeks transformation program that would turn me from a lethargic man to one who is fit. I might not be able to get 6 packs and all that in 10 weeks (it take some years to turn their body into a lean mean muscular machine and I only have 10 weeks. Of course, that doesn’t mean I won’t try right?

Anyway, as is done every week, I will update you on my weekly progress since my daily progress can be followed at my twitter page. And to start off the 3rd week of my regime, I always have a weight check to see my progress after each week. (more…)
