You can't beat me! HAHA!

Women's problem this week yet I still managed to go exercise! *Give a like to myself!* puwahahahahahahaha~Since we were unable to book the badminton court in Angkasa because it was fully booked. *Sad x 100000000000* I went to gym on Tuesday with my friend. As usual, the gym in school is filled with people. Only left one bicycle and all of the treadmill were fully occupied. This time, I will reduce the amount that I do on every exercise equipment because of my knee problem. I did cycling for a short time not more than 15 minutes and tried out some other gym equipment. It was fun to do it yet my stamina does not allow me to continue after few times. My friend introduce me the elliptical trainer machine, she says that the machine involve whole body rather than only using some parts of my muscles. I used the elliptical machine for around 15 minutes because my knee was feeling uncomfortable. After I reached home, I did some research for the elliptical machine. It amazed me about the benefit of the machine.

This is the elliptical trainer machine.
Edward, R (2011) asserted that elliptical machine has lower impact on knee, hips and back compare to treadmill. However, I still feel my knee pain when using the elliptical machine and it is possible as what Edward claimed. You can read more about the benefits of the machine at here and here.

On Friday, my other friends ask me to join their badminton session and I did. It was fun to play with a lot of super skillful badminton players. They motivated me to enhance on my skills. These are some shots that I took with them. For the smoking look-alike photo...I have to claim that WE ARE NOT SMOKERS. We just playing around with poses. HAHA. Anyway, it was fun and refreshing after sweating! Yes! Plan to join fitness course or yoga class after I start working.

Yeah, I love my life. X)
