Haven't been updating here much lately..
In the midst of a 6 week marathon training plan.. this week is week 2..
tmr shall go for a 2hr run, irregardless of distance.

Confirmed, northern side to fish at jurong lake is full of snags. Not a good place for suspending and sinking lures. Topwater and normal floating crankbaits are recommended but with minimal crank. Lots of structure under the water.
Small 5-6inches sized fish are common in jurong lake and swim in groups. Saw 3, footlong peacock bass caught by an uncle. So there must still be big peacock bass in the water, just need to find the right spot. 
Saw the long stretch of sunset way, looks promising. Will try when i get my bike.

Archery, though shall NOT meddle with grip and add epoxy. It doesn't work for actual shooting. Normal grip is okay. no need to modify. learnt something on blurry sight picture. 
A sight pin/dot should be the main focus and let the target be a blur. Reasons are that the yellow does not move so the main focus should be to place the dot into the yellow circle. Plus, when it's raining or in condition where the target is hard to see (for example, varying distances) it's much easier to focus on the sight pin/dot rather then try to get a clear picture of the target. Changed my sight pin to the one with the fluoro pin.

Want to Buy:
Inno Ex Prime Limbs 68" 36lbs.
65.5" string from blingstrings.

- archery. back to my 40lbs marked weight Winex, but on the fingers at 42lbs.
Got the torso twisting and the bow arm problem understood. Bought a new M sized Cavalier Elite Cordovan fingertab. The new new anchor and head position allows for better clearance under the chin, so no more abrasion cuts under the chin from fingertabs. Also understood the"thumb pulled back" part.

The barbells here weigh heavier so the 10kg plates plus heavy barbell gave quite a challenging workout. 7.5kg dumbbells decline dumbbell press, normal dumbbell press. 5kg hammer curls and lying tricep extension. 60lbs cable row.

Okay so I haven't been going for archery for quite some time..
I know I've written this down in my main blog but since this blog is for training purposes, thought that i'd put it down here too.

I haven't been going to archery in quite some time partly due to the fact that it's the fasting month, but mainly cause i injured my shoulder. Now it's healed. But now i have a dilemma.

I wanna purchase some new stuff.. But both for paintball and archery..
Which should i choose..?

Paintball:
Empire E-vents Thermal Yellow Lens
Empire Grind Knee Pads
Empire React 3+6 Pack
NXe Pods

Archery:
Win&Win 10inch HMc sidestabs Black
Cavalier Elite Cordovan Fingertab small
Cap weights
Base/mid weights

The archer in me wants the archery stuff, since fasting month is coming to an end and now that my shoulder is healed i can work on my form change again. Plus i need the cavalier tab for the change too.
The paintballer in me wants the stuff so that i can look much cooler with the yellow lens amd i can save my knees with the pads. but come to think of it, I'm not gonna be involved with SPS 2010 coz Heartbreakers has already fielded 7 players. And i don't think i'll be playing with other teams coz i've seen the others and, besides for team CK, i don't seem to click with them well.. I'll most probably be crewing for Heartbreakers during SPS. And it's not more of a need, the items are a want.
