am devising a exercise set which i will religiously follow from tonight onwards! day and night :) hopefully will help tone my muscle groups up nicely before sundown and reduce chances of cramps :) must increase the strength and flexibility of my core muscle groups i think it really aids running.

anyway while random online researching on which exercises to incorporate into my masterplan i did dig up useful stuff. like how more researchers are starting to suspect that stretching before a run actually weakens the muscles! esp for hamstring and calves. i've suspected this for quite some time already actually. stretching cold muscles is a bad bad idea. best way to warm up for a run is to do a slow jog to warm the whole body up :) or well SAF's dynamic stretching might help too im not sure.

and yeah the long known fact about fat-losing: its totally IMPOSSIBLE to lose fat in any particular area no matter how hard you work on that area :p doing thousands of crunches will only build up abs muscles while not slimming your waist down! only way to lose fat is to lose fat as a whole : aka full body workout sessions which make you sweat and stuff. but correct exercises WILL tone your muscle groups which will then in turn make them appear slimmer. hmmm still works i guess haha :)

i need to find out why my soles always cramp! esp the arch of the feet. its like they're permenantly on "cramp" mode even when im not exercising. for normal activities they're fine but if i purposely stretch the arch of my feet they cramp up immediately >< the cramps worsen after a long run, and worst thing is that its permanent its been like that for ages ><
