Biodex

...is a machine that does pretty cool stuffs. It measures your specific strength and power at specific joints in your body, at specific angles, with specific resistance applied, at a specific speed. its just this awesome machine which controls everything and all u have to do is either pull or push really really hard.
anyway, here's the machine. you've got to strap yourself up to it really tight. and then you set your maximum extension and maximum flexion of your knee. and then you set the speed at which you should move based on the force of resistance applied. but enough with this gibberish. just know that there is this really cool machine which does some really cool stuff and i got to sit on it! =)

random blabber aside...i did generally quite alright in all my midterms with Medsci being that rotten apple. I got pretty high marks for my Sportsci subjects. Feeling pretty happy about things right now actually.

my face probably has gone rounder but my weight remains at 53-54 kg. I'm happy i guess. Though I am so shopping for new pants when i get home...

home. that's only 70 days away and it feels so near. i really can't wait to go home. there's just so much i want to show off - my newly acquired cooking skills, my recently cultivated habit of waking up no later than 9 am, my new lean toned figure *yeah baby* and just the new me, in general. coz i think i've changed in some ways...

better start keeping your days and nights free for me people! 70 days to go...=)

Don't worry, that's quite common amongst endurance athletes. I'm pretty sure Beijing Olympic triathlon champion Emma Snowsill has a very low power output, look at her tiny size!
