I need to keep being consistent and finish the rest of the year strong. I realised that I was jogging to get the bus but felt bit wheezy because I had a lot of mucus in my lungs. But it helped me cough out some of the cough. I guess there would be more blood flow if you do more cardio right?

A bit more emphasis on the cardio is something that I have realised prevents some of these issues. I am making sure after my 1 and a bit hour of full body I am tired hence I do some cardio in my off days. Cardio can be burpees, shadow boxing and foot work drills. Nothing fancy, something I can get on with in a small space.

Also breathing exercises to help loosen up tension of the muscle in and around my chest and stomach felt good too, which is what I also do. Some exercises involves jumping up and down, essentially vibrating which I find alleviates some of the tension.

I find this to be somewhat amazing, motivating. I want to see a big change by the end of October in my character, particularly in my ability to be patient, discipline, consistency and overall positive attitude. .
