Virtual Sets

It's been uplifting to listen to edm djs record their sets online during this pandemic-quarantine. It has also been touching that internet strangers have saved these sets for those who were unable to be available to watch the live streams. I haven't used soundcloud in years, however it has definitely been nostalgic to return to this and remember all the sets I saved in the past to dance along to in the comforts of my bedroom or garage. With the shelter-in-place, I intend once again to use these sets to dance and shuffle around to. Let's get back to uplifting ourselves and finding things that give us inner peace <3 But also, have you listened to edm while prepping and cooking?? It makes it so much more fun and hype! My schedule these days looks like Gryffin with my morning coffee, Tokimonsta while "WFH," ARTY for my workout, and Kaskade or Dab the Sky while I'm making dinner :)

10/12 til Hawaii

Current Summer Morning Routine This week, I originally planned to wake up at 5 am, but unconsciously turned off the alarm (every single day of the week.. I guess 5 am isn't happening yo). Alas I woke up at 6:45 am today. Nevertheless, I strive to start off the mornings well. Make it a Good Morning !~ While I brush my teeth, I boil a full kettle of water for my black coffee and freshly brewed passion fruit tea that I. and my family, can drink throughout the day. I don't know why, but drinking tea just makes the day a little better instantly. While I wait for the coffee grounds to steep, I try to do something productive. It rotates about these activites depending on how early I wake up and how I feel that particular morning: listen to podcasts (current favorites are The Smart Passive Income  and Ear Biscuits ) while checking my instagram feed read my daily devotional and have QT with God listen to edm unceunce music and do fasted cardio, pushups, pullups, ab wheels. Gen...

9/12 til Hawaii - cardio to cap the week

Image
EDC has completely slipped my mind this year,  until it popped up everywhere on social media. It's always fun seeing people's outfits and hair accessories. I think deciding on outfits is part of the excitement and anticipation for attending music festivals. And we all know that Edc bods are hashtag summer goals right? Anyways,  this year I didnt feel any sense of "fomo" except when I woke up this morning and read about Walter White (Bryan Cranston) ft Above & Beyond! This Breaking Bad fan is so peanut butter and jealous. That badassery must've been pretty awesome to witness. Ok, main point of this post. I love to tune into the livestreams during my workouts. I usually end up dancing along with the go-go dancers, djs, and attendees. Even though I'm not at the festival, and would probably never go to EDC, it is still entertaining to listen to the streams especially within the comforts of your house - clean bathrooms, comfy bed, water, food, ac, no traf...

The one weekend in Hollywood-Ktown-Silverlake

Image
Darn, I'm trying to recap last weekend a week later.. I'm not sure why I haven't been able to sit myself down and reminisce with words. It's been a struggle haha. Regardless, Finally!! I am determine to finish this blog post. So, Saturday I had time to watch Youtube vids and play around with makeup:  Sarocha B Prom makeup  is what I attempted! Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of my attempt because lighting in a club is dark you see. Basically, my makeup was dark and sultry; typical girls' night out style of makeup. I had such a great moment dancing the night away and meeting new strangers  - MS54 [see what I did there, eyy haha]. However, I believe the best memory of the night may be when we left Create and right next to the exit was the glorious dirty dog stand. It is only after dancing for hours would I really ever consider buying hot dogs from the streets.. but live in the moment, and devour the experience I say! I was very ecstatic and content...

Favorite fasted cardio workout mix currently!

Woo, it's been a long minute since I've came upon a song/mix/playlist that pumps me up for fasted morning workouts. Alas! This banger baby hits the spot - Dada Life May 2015 mix ps, anyone have a soundcloud playlist that's perfect for HIIT and UNCE-lifting? here's my collection so far AestheticDianasaurusUNCEUNCE Hope this mix gives you power for your workouts :D <3

Saturday Fasted cardio: 1000 Calorie HIIT Workout - Christine Salus

Image
Okk. I only did part 1 + dancing around and jumping around because I was doing this fasted. But hey 1000/3 = about 333 calories. I'll take that! I started to look into youtube HIIT videos because I got a little bored with the Insanity workouts. It's also motivating to see "in real life" people working out too (Shaun T is like a workout guru/celebrity :P) Listening to great unce-lifting music really, absolutely helps! I came upon Mandy Lee 20  HIIT playlist today by random search on Soundcloud. Great for cardio for sure :)

Day 16: cardio dancing

Image
I don't really know how to explain what my workout was this morning.. I put  Insanity and Despicable Me  in the background then put in my earphones to an EDM station. For the span of one Insanity workout I basically shuffled-danced around, gyrated, booty-popped (or as much as I could with my baby cakes) and did jumping jacks and jump ropes and high knees in between. SO. MUCH. FUN. I think the best explanation I could give is possibly a hype girl or go-go dancer at a rave + mesh of work out moves?.... hmmm but not that sexy, but just as energetic. I swear dancing is good for your abs :) interestingly, I am currently watching some go-go videos on youtube for some inspiration & moves. hahah xD :) Rawr, Dianasaur

This compilation always makes me ready for a great cardio workout! 3LAU HAUS #8 (Techibeats Hard Edition) So yesterday I came upon this song on my mp3 and did a quick 30 minute cardio session: 100 jump rope 75 high knees 5- squats 25 pushups 150 jump rope 75 jumping jacks 50 lunges 25 ab wheels 200 jump ropes 75 butt kicks 50 mountain climbers 25 ab wheels For lunch we went to an Indian buffet. Oh how I've missed Indian food :) It was my brother's and mom's first experience with Indian food. Unfortunately, the mother was disappointed; Indian food is pretty distinct with strong spices, needs quite a bit of getting used to. The brother enjoyed the food, but since he kind of has a weak stomach, he had some aftermath to confront later on :/ Seems like this will be my lonely pleasure. Ok! so yesterday wasn't supposed to be a "high" carb day, but since I indulged I had to go hard at the gym. DEADLIFTS And I finally bought myself these gri...

I love this! Future me, with silver/white/platinum hair and of course an awesome fanny pack =)

Deadlifting high :)

Today was my deadlifting day! But I was also very lazy in the morning and didn't do fasted cardio. xD Must go harder tmw then for cardio. So.. Last time I did deadlift with my man friend, I got to surpass my mental and physical block of 135 lbs! Holy guacamole. For months I've been stuck and could NOT lift it off the floor at all. However, after a couple of weeks of not working on deadlifts, I was so shocked that I lifted 135 lbs with ease and actually went up to 155 lbs in one gym session. It was crazy I tell you! I can't believe I'm making these gains everywhere. Seeing progress like that really motivates me more and puts me on such a high because there's proof that my body is indeed changing and getting strong. It's an amazing experience even though I still feel like a noob at the gym sometimes. I wonder if I'll ever have that confidence at the gym (maybe when I finally get abs and can shamelessly walk around with a sports bra on, GLOAT). My work...

Volume Training

Image
This past weekend my Buffy @grraceface put me through squats volume training. That was on Saturday, today is Monday evening and my legs are still sorely sore. With 75 lbs I did 10 set of 10 reps, with 90 seconds of rest between each set. 10x10 = 100 squats! Usually with squats you're supposed to do the hip thrust once you're up, but with the volume training she told me to go deep down into the squats and just come back up then squat.. til yo set is done. I noticed the first 4 sets were ok/do-able but once I got to sets 5-7 I was faltering. I think the 8th set was the hardest for me, but I told myself just 2 more sets and 9th and 10th were done with more ease. Interesting how our bodies and minds tie in mentally and physically so well. Ok so this is my song of the day for Monday! Britney Spears - Work B**ch! You want a hot body? You want a Bugatti?                                     ...

I guess I'll ease into it

hahah I have so many things to blog about, but particular me wants to do too many things at once. SO, I shall just ease into it again. Today's post is going to be simply my song of the day . I dunno, something about drinking black coffee on an empty stomach and listening to edm with earphones makes a lot of music sound better. The original version of Fired (ft J-Son) - B Robin is also good! I've only listened to two songs of B Robin but so far I am liking them quite a lot.

Heard this song on the radio and it kind of reminisced me of the "eat, sleep, rave, repeat" song but not nearly as epic of a story & not as random as well haha. But here is a current guilty of a pleasure song.
