24 June
Continued the cycling and i picked up a 2 hrs cycling and one hour running still at a very low tempo and trying to keep the heart rate consistant. Through the different trainings my aim during the training is to keep a consistant heart rate which will allow me also to find my tempo into everything.

21 June
Also had another 2 hrs cycling and tried afterwards to run for 30 min at a low tempo and it was difficult to pick up the run pace afterwards. The new training is to have an hour cycling and an hour bike
20 June
Today decided to pick up on cycling and it was unbelievable i did not know i had such a tolerance for cycling. I did a research before i begin and one of the hints that i can share and worked was do your own tempo and concetrate on it and not on techniques as a beginner. I did that and had a 2 hrs of straight cycling which was a great experience.
Also realised that cycling is the highest sports that supports loosing weight as swimming. The tendancy are swimmers eat more thus compensating on the calories lost.

A Work advice note: When opening your own company it is going to get very hard don't worry and when things get bad and it can't get any worst it will but again don't worry. Working life is the most difficult you can have but when you keep fighting, driving for success and seeking excellence at all times you will reach it. Just make sure you keep focus and have a clear objective to work on and build on.

I received the clearance to get back into my trainings. What a great day and a great feeling. As of tomorrow will get back to consistent training as over the period of 6 month i have build up 10Kg that i need to get rid off and begin to concentrate on the North Pole. The team this year faced a lot of challenges and i need to build up my psychological education more than the actual physical endurance.
Now you can join me anytime at any training any day.
February and March
Recovering from the knee pain and same time working hard in building up the company structure and businesses. The company began to have a strong foundation and the knee therapy is going excellent.
Hope to get back to training soon. I miss a lot the outdoors. One thing for sure i that when i stopped training my life has changed i was having all the time an urge to be in the outside exploring and my concentration and ability to perform multiple tasks has reduced. I can say that training does have a very powerfull effect on a person. It has been almost 5 month now without consistant training other than the usual very short run.
January - February
My knees are still hurting with training. I also gained 10 kilos that i can't get rid off easily moreover working a lot on my new company is not easy with the present financial crisis.
I have registered to a hospital that will keep close monitor on my conditions. It is called femularpetulla which means some of the muscles have developed much more than others. I have to do knee traininig mostly.
The bad news is this year north pole expeditions are facing tough times with constant storms and freezing waters.
January
Some friends of mine did Acongagua and it iwas extremly well organized with a great adventurer and leader Marty Shmidt.
17 January
My first day back to training and did 30 min run with 1 hr of weight training. No painfelt but surely tomorrow will have musle pain.
25 December until 16 January
After holidays in Lebanon and no trainings due to my knee injury i gained 10 Kg. Also during my trip we found out that i have Petola Femular Pain Syndrome which hits around 40% of amateur atheletes and my training schedule has changed to very slow run and swimming only. Also i have to wear a knee support at all times while training.
I am not allowed to do any cycling or skiing for the next year. Working on how is this going to affect the North Pole trip and more information will be advised soon.
Presently alligned my training schedule again for loosing the 10Kg and getting back to fitness.

I am reading a book called The secret and talks about the law of attraction that whatever you project comes back to you. ie: "I am going to be happy" will guide for you to be happy by end of the day. Today i felt it when running i was extremly stif and not feeling like training so change my mind set in accomplishing my run and even running faster than the usual with a focus on result and meditation on my heart rate. IT WORKED

Had late working night so couldn't do the morning run however for the gym in the afternoon and it felt good. I am working hard and stressed so my performance is not great but after couple of hrs running and wieght lifting i felt reborn. Training is having a very high effect on my life it keep me positive, focused and keep me going all day through. I believe these are enough reasons for anyone to train whenever possible.

Today had a cardio training and had muscles spams most of the time. We did an analysis and it was lack of vitamines and stress so back to the multi vitamines and anti oxhidation whey protein. Will do cycling in the evening and see the results.
