在facebook看到的一個連結分享,說得實在太好,要收下不時返看提醒自己。

插畫如何自學:陳惟老師給自學插畫者的種種建議(文長)

很長的一篇文章,但很值得一讀。

有一定程度的堅持和努力可以換來怎樣的成果? 看看這位德國朋友一年之間的進步令人目瞪口呆! 看看第一頁、十一頁、五十一頁、一零一頁…

愈看得多,愈覺自己不入流。
再刻苦一點吧。

健體筆記20

好一陣子沒有update健體筆記,今天已經去到第二十課。
其實沒太多新動作,都是在舊有的動作變化。例如做v crunch時雙腳夾著一個1kg的medicine ball、在有斜度的板上做russian twist等。這兩課新學的就是針對側腰部份的dumbbell side bend
15-20REP 3 SETS EACH SIDE



說來好像有點變態,但我現在蠻喜歡完成weight training後身體帶點酸痛的感覺,我會將之形容為「我痛故我在」XD 那就像是各個位置肌肉們在告訴你:「嗨!我在這裡啊!」特別是腹部背部這些平日不會怎麼運動到的位置,以前從來沒有意識到它們的存在,現在可以清清楚楚的把它們個別地感覺出來。
今天再做plank,三組30 sec雖然還未至於輕鬆自如,但已較幾個月以前覺得能支持,即使我減重或外形上其實變化不大(那當然了,一星期才只能付出一天做運動,還能指望什麼呢?),體能上的進步即使輕微,也是我繼續的動力。
其實無論滅重還是鍛鍊肌肉,都是很logic的過程,就像一條方程式,每一個動作、習慣、做對了,就會有效果,這是很好玩的,也令我有點上癮地很想了解更多,然後可以再做點新實驗。近來在網上看到一個關於afterburn的概念,就是說在強烈運動後的四十八小時內,人體的新陳代謝會提升,而這時不應節食,因為要燃燒脂肪必要靠糖份,所以這階段要先要補充運動時所流失的糖。無怪乎有說運動過後感到肚餓就應該吃東西,不要忍到個多小時後才進食,這樣無法配合新陳代謝,反會令脂肪積聚。當然,吃什麼還是要注意的,吃生果、雞蛋、少許肉補充就很好了,但也有說可以吃一小杯雪糕,令血糖上升去增加飽肚感,但始終雪糕都是高糖高脂的,我恐怕以我的消耗量還不足夠彌補呢,雪糕我就不敢嘗試了~

討論區的師兄們有對此很好的討論,雖然對於那些術語我還是不太明白,但已給我一個很概略的概念。

下面這紀錄片好像很不錯,先記下,留待有空時再看。
10 things you need to know about losing weight

Wednesday, July 11, 2012

sometimes i just can't remember all the things we did together

all those thick books that we read together
i burnt them cos i felt cold in the summer
the wind's so strong it blew up all the pages
they flew round me, trapped me like three hundred cages

all those things we told each other
today i can't remember any longer
i tried to turn my diary, get some memories
but in vain cos i don't even remember your name

something in my mind
keeps me from knowing what's inside
from time to time
i ask why
not because i wonder why
i wanna fly not because i have seen the blue sky

so many desires
for all the things we choose in our lives
do you have time to get tired
when you're just a passer-by
it's time to realise it's all designed

all dishes we cooked together
they tasted sweet but now they've all gone bitter
still i keep them in my refrigerator
they stink so much but i eat them as appetizers

all those dreams we made together
like bubbles they flew up and burst in the air
once we were naive enough to chase after them
we used to fall but hey so what
we're truly happy
