hi guys,

after the 120 pumping session, i did some reflection and here are my thoughts

i think the seniors do have a point, joking during training is bad, because it delays our sets and lengthen our rest time. actually there's nothing wrong with joking, it lightens up the whole mood of training and gets our mind off the fatigue in our body. but then again, training is meant to be serious. the purpose of training is to push ourselves to our limits so that we can improve. anything hinders this purpose should be removed, joking being one of them. i am guilty of it too. Our batch do have quite a number of jokers (Xtreme Jokers bringing Xtreme Joy!!!) and i am actually very appreciative of it cos it makes the whole team very fun and entertaining. its nothing bad, just that after reflecting, i feel that it does hinder our training and we should stop. and talking cock too. especially during warm ups, when we are supposed to count, some tend to stray off and chat. not pointing fingers to anyone but its very distracting and counters may lose count cos of it. though i think we should still continue to sing cock maybe during long distance runs and planks just to get our mind off the fatigue(its proven to help for mine and Ansai's case), but not during rests in between sets.

what i am really trying to say is, lets continue to be the Xtreme Jokers! we can joke and cock and do all the shit we want, but make sure its outside training. During trainings, lets be serious. Jairus has been one of the few that has been really focused during trainings and lets all learn from him.

morning trainings are dying, so far the regulars are only me, yaw yaw and eugene. just coming for training, i have to wake up at 5, 1.5 hours earlier then usual. but i continue to do it. if you guys don't wanna come in the morning, you can also try to make up for it in the afternoons like jong. its just for your own good. do it if you feel there's a need, no obligations.

just to sum up, lets continue train hard and push ourselves beyond our limits AND IN SO DOING bring even greater Xtreme Joy to the team than joking itself. XJ for the win!
