New Workout Structure
The workout stucture consist of six workous prefer week and rest day. The workout starts from light moving to heavy then to medium which for me willl balance out nicely. The workout focus on cardio and muscle building for the arms, chest and abs. Building a health well defined body. Yes, definitely workout to look sexier LOL.
Now as many of you know i do my workouts in the morning before work, which generally is the best times for me. However you can conduct your workouts whenever you prefer but keeping it around the same time everyday sets good rhythm that the body system gets used to and you will find it easier to stick to that time. I know its unavoidable sometimes and everyone has different lives and can find it hard to find time workout and in that case working out when you can is better then not working out at all.
Here it is: My workout Structure,
Monday
Lite Cardio Workout - which will consist of running, HIITs and aerobics.
Tuesday
Lite Weight Training - which will consist of a 5 minute warm up run, 3 different sets of pushups and 2 lite superset with dumbbells on a bench for the chest
Wednesday
Heavy Cardio Workout - which will consist of running, HIITs, Aeroics and bootcampe style exercises focus on abs, back and leg
Thursday
Heavy Weight Workout - which will consist of a 5 minute warm up run, two warm-up pushup sets, 4 chest supersets prefered with dumbbells and 4 different types of arm workout sets that will focus on biceps, triceps and shoulders.
Friday
Medium Cardio Workout - which will consist of Running, HIITs Bootcamp style execrise focus on abs and legs
Saturday
Medium Weight Workout - which will consit of a 5 minute warm up run, pushups, 3 chest superset on bench and 2 different types of arm exercises focus on biceps and triceps and 2 back exercises.
Sunday

Terry Masters Life Update 1 & Dedication to great friends
Hows everyone doing. so sorry i havnt done any blogs recently, been so busy and all over the place. Not very good excuse i know, still working out but i do admit i have bit more lax then i would prefer but it does happen, the trick is always keeping motivated and changing routines. Everything else wise has been good.
Been having great time with my friends that i havent seen in awhile but recenly over the past two months or so i have been seeing them constantly and its been wonderfiul and made new friends too which is always a pleasure becuase i love meeting new people and socializing as many of you know.
Its hard to find good friends these days and i have say i got great calibur of friends now. Many know ive been going through lot of emotional stuff and i thank them all for beiung there for me. Big shout to my Poker boys, wilson, DFH girlys, Miss Double T, the Tu's, Old Skool crew, Crazy Ray of Sunshine, Sylvester and my Manager at work, hes always been great guy and inspiration to me and good friend too, which is rare in the workplace.
This year has been a terrible one with many heart breaking events but next year is looking brighter, always remaining positive but its not easy. so everyone thats been there for me thank you so much. I can honestly say if i won the lotto i know who i would share money with if i could lol. All about sharing the love becasue thats i got to left in me. ¬_¬'
Works good, saving money to go aboard next year, gonna have great time in san fransico and las vegas so definitely cant wait for that experience.
I have also been working on my vblogs but still not ready to up load them yet. They gonna be great hope and i hope you all will like them too.

Workout Styles
First i would like to apologies becuase i know in my workout plans i state ill be posting up 'follow-ups' on how each exercise performed benefits you and what parts of the body it impacts more. Not only that but i also mentioned the PoO PoW Boot Camp workout plan.
I've set time a side and i will be posting up everything ive stated i will with due course so please keep the eye out and if you follow me on twitter or facebook all my latest updates will be updated on there instantly.
The PoO PoW Boot Camp workout plan consist of a series of exercises put together and performed during a workout where they is no stopping or minimum stop during exercise change. Boot Camp workouts have been proven to be very affective workout plans that help keep you fit, motivated and burn off weight. A style taken from the military and one that i have been looking into with great interest. Same way i have been looking into HIITs style workouts with great interest.
There's many different types of workouts out there and there's something for everyone. You just need to find the right one for you. I personally find any type of workout great if performed the right way and with motivation. I will always highly recommend HIITs style workouts and boot camp style becuase they have been proven world wide to be the most effective workouts over short periods of time.
Thats why i am creating styles of workouts that not only combined great aspects of workouts already out there but also workouts that can be used and adapted for all and the main aspect too all which will never change is motivation, motivation and motivation.
There is no quick way to lose weight and maintain a fit, healthy and stronger body, taking drugs that have been proven or state they will help you lose weight is only a quick fix and yes if it works (becuase it doesn't work for everyone) for you and you feel good becuase you look better due to weight lost doesn't make you any heather and in fact you could actually be worse off. Please consider workouts like the ones stated above because workout a little every day and watching how you eat and sleep will make all the difference you need. You will not only feel better from how you look but also physically feel better as well.
Were all our own keepers of our body and only us can be held responsible for how its maintained. We can style have fun enjoy life and party hard and still keep fit.
Thanks for reading
Please follow me if you find what i have say helps or interesting and stay tuned because there's a great deal more coming.

So lets begin
5 Minute Warm-Up & Stretching
If you’re not sure on what to do for stretching and warming up then refer to my blog and YouTube channel as I'll be posting up what I do as good overall full body stretch and warm-up routine.
*** Two really good stretches for the back both preformed on the floor that can be done;
1st Single leg lift and hold with both arms by reaching as high as you can while trying keep your back on the floor and gently pull that leg in, hold for 10 seconds and gently release and bring the leg down by bringing in the knee first and then change and repeat for next leg.
2nd While seating with one leg straight forward out and other leg crossed over the other leg. then lift that legs knee up and turn your upper body keeping legs in place so your facing in the opposite direction of the knee you just raised, you will feel a pull on your back and try dip your chin a bit and you will feel a pull on your upper back, hold for 10secs then repeat same again but for switching legs

10 - 15 - 20 minute run (you can mix HIITs style into this if you want so run fast as you can for 20 to 30 seconds then keep jogging at a nice pace for minute and repeat over 10 minutes).

PoO PoW Workout, Week 3, Todays Workout, Firday, 20.08.10
Day Nineteen
Hope everyone enjoyed their rest day and yes now its time to go back to working out. This morning were going to spicy it up a bit so be ready for a nice burn but a good one.
5 Minute Warm-Up & Stretching
If you’re not sure on what to do for stretching and warming up then refer to my blog and YouTube channel as I'll be posting up what I do as good overall full body stretch and warm-up routine.
10 - 15 - 20 minute run (you can mix HIITs style into this if you want so run fast as you can for 20 to 30 seconds then keep jogging at a nice pace for minute and repeat over 10 minutes). Keeping in mind HIITs style will be much more intense and also a lot of Wednesday workout involves sprinting on the spot as well, you don't want to over work your legs.
***Perform the Knee Up Jogs gently but with a good pace and keeping the knee high but not higher then the waist and also try hoping with the standing leg at the same time. So your doing Knee Up Jog Hops. The reason for this because once 30 seconds of that is completed your to pump everything you got into the next performance 30 second exercise coming up. Checkout whats coming next and you'll see how it flows plus check the interval timer summary it make more sense***
---- Repeat below divided set 3 times without stopping ----
