Day 8

I don't think I've eaten so much for breakfast EVER.  I normally just have coffee, and occasionally some fruit or cereal.  The workouts are definitely getting longer to complete.  This morning I had to rush to finish and get to work.  Need to set the alarm 30 minutes earlier to make sure I can get it all done.

Day 7

Today is my birthday! Got the 500 jumpropes done first thing but had to split them into sets of 100. Even then, I was out of breath after each set. Going sailing later today with PCP alum Vittorio. Have a nice Sunday!

Day 5

Got up early, did my Day 5 workout in my hotel room in Tokyo.  Kept banging the jumprope against the desk.  Need to find a hotel with larger rooms.  It doesn't quite seem worth going down to gym when you know you can get the workout done in 20 minutes in the privacy of the room.  Nice to do the jumprope barefoot too.

Got back to HK this afternoon.  I'm "home alone" for one more week until Veronica and the kids come to HK.

Tomorrow, I plan to do Day 6 workout first thing in morning.

Day 4

I took my jump rope and my push up bars to Seoul and Tokyo (Day 3 and Day 4).  Found it very difficult to find enough space in a hotel room to do my jumprope, however.  Yesterday started with early flight and breakfast meeting (just ate a few slices of fruit) and ended with a business dinner, so had to do my Day 4 workout around 11pm after getting back to Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills.  Made me wish I had just woken up 30 minutes earlier and done it in morning!  Henceforth, morning.

Day 3

So far, the workouts have been very manageable. I am actually discovering that I like to jump rope! I have been very hungry on half rations however. Skipped lunch today because I had a business dinner where it's difficult to simply eat half, but managed to consume in moderation - so did not exceed 50% of my typical food intake on a daily basis. Still hungry! I have a feeling the diet part will be tougher for me than the exercise part.

Anyway, looking forward to some jump rope tomorrow
