Starting weight of Team HIIT:
Jerry – 379
Tikeri – 351 (38% Body Fat)
Lanu – 234

Workout:
Monday – Legs
Wednesday – Shoulders + Living Room Wrestling
Friday – Cardio

The first week went really well but there is still some tweaking to the HIIT program that needs to be done to maximize our fat loss efforts. Tomorrow we’re gonna weigh ourselves again but the numbers aren’t going to be made public. Since we posted our starting weight I expect Richmond to post theirs too so we can get the competition rolling.

PS.
There’s no way Team HIIT can lose. Seriously.

I partied way too hard last night and I’m glad I did. I got that party mode out of my system and I’m ready to put in work and get shit done. The comeback is in effect bitches! This is the Samoan-Ninja signing off… LAtEZ.

HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training and it’s NO JOKE!

It’s basically where you exercise in intervals while going all out. It’s generally a 2:1 work/rest ratio. So if you go 30 seconds working out, then you rest 15 seconds, and you do it for a total of 8 times.

Since we’re doing the Tabata Method we’re working for 20 seconds and resting for 10, and still for a total of 8 times.

So in those 20 seconds you give it all you got! Then rest for 10 secs, and repeat 7 more times! Not including warm-ups or cool-downs, it’s a total of 4 minutes in HELL!

While doing HIIT you’ll see large benefits come from sprints. If you cannot sprint then you can alternatively do it with weights or a stationary bike or any other machine just as long as you workout the large muscle groups only. And again, go as hard as you can within the time limit!

Oh and the benefits I’m talking about is Fat Loss. The theory is that you push your muscles so hard during the workout that it’s trying to recover throughout the entire day!  The name of the process that makes this happen is EPOC or Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption.

HIIT should never be done consecutively, only every other day. If you’re not sprinting then use a stationary bike, if you’re lifting weights then workout the major muscle groups only! You should also be combing this exercise with a health nutritional diet. Always consult your doctor if you’re beginning an exercise regiment. And after about 2 months of hard training to make sure you don’t plateau, take about 1 week off, then switch up the HIIT.

Last but not least HIIT Squad consist of me, Bear, and Lanu. Yesterday morning we worked out doing benchpress and will resume monday with legs. I will post a weekly progress report. This was going to be part of the second video project but it’s not due to the camcorder having battery problems. Monday I’ll post starting weight, pictures, and whatever else that seems necessary to log down. This is the Samoan-Ninja signing off… LAtEZ.

I made a video on how to poach salmon in the dishwasher!  It tasted good but after finishing the salmon I don’t know if I had really tasted the soap or if I was just trippin’. Also, I’ll break down how the production went in a later post.

I added it to a new section called “How To”.. Click here or click it at the top! I moved it to the section instead of posting it to the front news so there wasn’t duplicate posting. So go there now to view the video!

My 360 gold account expired, and the rental games had to be returned . Eminem said it best (although he meant something completely different) “The clock’s run out, time’s up over, blaow. Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity”. I’m hoping the next time I play on an Xbox 360 it’ll be my own . You know ’cause I’ll have money from that job I’m supposed to have.. Now!!

In the bundle are two wireless controllers, MW2, a headset, a special painted xbox 360 inspired from Modern Warfare 2, and a new 250GB HD. I just need to purchase a wireless adapter separately, no biggie.

So while I wait for the J-O-B to call to “tell me when to go”, I’ll be working on two video projects. Both are currently in development and nowhere near pre-production. The first video is a instructional video with how to poach “something” (it’s a surprise with a twist), it’s going to be short and sweet sick (Well, it depends on how you take it). The other video I don’t want to go into too much detail but it is another instructional video and I might need to recruit some people to help me out on it.

Well, that’s all you can expect for now. When the videos are done they’ll be uploaded to Youtube, and posted here as well (duh). If you don’t know my Youtube Channel you can find the link on the right, it’s underneath the “More Of Me Links”, or you can click here. This is the Samoan-Ninja signing off… LAtEZ.

I’m back.

So you’re probably wondering what happened to Samoan-Ninja.com? Well, it was sort of my fault it went down. You see, I was trying to clear out the spam comments in the gallery (over 5000+) and accidentally knocked it out. As soon as I restored the gallery, my blog went down! So I tried restoring my blog but it kept failing, so I got help from my web host’s tech support and now everything is back to normal.

So what did you do to celebrate the New Year?! I got down on some Modern Warfare 2 and Fallout 3. I got so caught up merc’n niggas that I didn’t know it was 2010 until my parents called to wish me a Happy New Year.
