Update for 2013 so far.

Hello everyone that follows me here on the blog. I haven't posted on here for a while. I have been wanting to but it takes so much time to type and upload pictures. Anyways, I guess this post will summarize half of this year already, lol. If you have been keeping up with me I've been posting more on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/hanhchampionz) and Instagram (http://www.instagram.com/hanhchampion)

I guess the social media apps make it a lot easier than sitting down and typing a blog on my computer. Also some of the older blog post have missing pictures as they were linked to my old facebook. Now that they changed the url's for the pictures some of them are missing. So that's kind of disappointing. I've tried to fixed some of the missing pictures in some of the post.

So.. on with the pictures and videos.


Back in December 2012 visiting Jenny. With my friend Vince (youtube.com/vinceyuen88 ) at Sport Central Fitness.
Right before New Years 2013. Did a chest & shoulders video with Skullay & Chris Jones at The Gym Dallas.

I went to the Arnold Classic for the first time in February. Here's pic of Rich Piana! Really cool guy with huge arms!



Playing around with fake weights. lol. Ohio was super cold and boring. Everything closes early too. The show was great and I met a lot of cool people. I was surprised the amount of people that recognized me!

Back in March, Jenny & I went to Houston to hang out and visit a long time mentor and new friend, Tuan Tran.
We had an awesome time hanging out with him & his wife. He's one of the most down to earth people you will meet! I've learned a lot more from this guy and his foam roller techniques helped me heal up some injuries. (youtube.com/roughneckasian)
After practicing foam rolling a few times it became a very effective part of my workout regimen. It definitely speeds up recovery time and relieves a lot of joint pains. It's weird at first and not very comfortable but once you get used to it, you will love it!




Here's the video on foam rolling if you've missed it.



In March Jenny & I went to California. Matt met up with us in SoCal because his gf was there for an event.
We're making supplements in the middle of the street! lol
We had a gym meet.. which we planned last minute and didn't expect it to be so big. We had a hard time finding a gym that would allow us to do this, and Jon at Jungle Fitness came through! We ended up networking with more gym owners and I think next time we can plan a better event instead of last minute planning and trying to limit the amount of people. For those that don't travel much, keep in mind Southern California is a very populated area. Especially with Asian people.
We had over 100 people show up from all over California. Not bad for a last minute unofficial meet, lol. We had a great time, met some new friends, and went to eat afterwards. The gym is made for private personal training. It's not open to the public so it wasn't very big for the amount of people we had. It was pretty fun though!
I brought my M3 to Cali to get some work done and attend a rally.
My co-pilot Jenny and stand next to a really steep cliff. The roads out in San Diego are amazing as well as the weather! There's nothing like that in Dallas. Things are pretty flat and boring here.
100 miles of twisty roads.
I had some issue with the engine a week after the rally. It was a bit disappointing and almost gave up on it. I almost thought of parting it out.
I've searched for a month and luckily found a really great deal on a motor to be built. This time it will be faster and stronger.
The shop is using my car to fabricated some parts. This is a prototype roll-cage being built. Not the final one.

Here's a video of the car rally in cased you missed it. Don't forget to subscribe my car channel if you're into cars. (http://www.youtube.com/boostednutz)




Matt drove 2 hrs to hang out and take me to the airport.You can't really judge someone until you really meet them. I pretty much hung out with him the whole week and not for youtube videos but because he's a real good friend to hang out with.
After having issues with my car on the way to San Diego.. I went ahead and went to the gym to do a chest workout. This Gold's gym in San Diego was really cool. The staff was very welcoming and let about 20 of us in for free. They had an indoor gym and a classic outdoor gym which we were allowed to film at!  I had only one meal prior which was a subway sandwich, lol. Matt & I have pretty much different training styles and different ways of dieting. It's difficult to do the same workout so most of the time we are doing our own thing with spotting here or there. When it comes down to it, what we both have in common is the mindset of working hard for what you want.
back in Dallas training shoulders late at night. I did a few tanning sessions and lighting is pretty good here. It's weird how tanning makes me more vascular. haha
At Metroflex Plano doing some 160lb dumb bell presses with Greg & Jon. We had a live workout which was pretty cool.
I had a strain or slight tear on my left quad back in December. It seems to be fine now and I'm squatting pretty much the same again.
I also strained my right lat deadlifting really heavy at the end of a back workout. It seems to be okay now. Here I'm repping 225lb deadlifts with overhand grip on a fat bar. This works out a lot on my forearms. I usually don't do this but it's pretty fun.
I've been shipping my shirts still. Running low on a few things but it cost me a lot to re-stock. So right now I'm just going to sell off what I have left. I may restock in the future or do pre-orders. Thank you all for the support so far. You can order my shirts here: http://hanhchampion.blogspot.com/p/merchandise.html

Well that's it for now. I've lost a lot of pictures from my phone because it got wiped out not too long ago. I've lost everyone's numbers as well, lol. Now that my blog is updated I will try to keep it updated! Thanks for reading!

  2. Couldn't agree with you more on the social media part. It's much more simpler and easier overall to use social media such as Facebook to update others on our progress. Writing our journey through a blog such as this helps reinforce our thoughts and get us to sit down and really think about things.

  4. Body building is tough work and requires total commitment and a fair amount of persistence and hard work. The best way for a body builder to achieve the muscle size they are looking for has 2 different schools of thought. The first is that it's best to start working out naturally and this is certainly a fair and safe method. However, that being said, the use of legal steroids to kick start the process or to further assist your efforts at some stage is certainly worth serious consideration. The product under review in this post is Anavar or P-var, a safe and legal alternative to the anvarol steroid. P-var by Crazy Mass mimics the same effects of the anabolic steroid Anavar without causing the side effects of usual steroids. Hence, you can use P-var without worrying about negative side effects or getting busted. It is available as oral tablets and does not require any injections.
