So I’ve forgotten to take pictures these last 2 weeks.  But don’t fret, I’ve been working hardcore in the gym, and I’ve been monitoring my diet like a pro.  I’m probably down 8-10 lbs since I started 3 weeks ago, and I’ve lost almost 20 lbs since the beginning of september (when I started swimming).  [...]

The first week is over.  I took pictures yesterday morning, but I’m at work, so I’ll have to post them a bit later.  Not much change in looks, but my nutrition is much better.  I counted calories the entire week, staying between 1750 and 1950.  This should be a healthy way to decrease weight while [...]

If you’ve read my last article you are aware of the shape that my fitness is in.  I’ve been swimming for about 10 weeks now, 5 to 6 times per week, and I really enjoyed it.  But I have recently decided to step it up a notch.  With the help of a personal trainer (friend, [...]

I’ve been swimming for 7 weeks now (5 times per week), and today starts the 8th week.  I started out swimming 5 laps per day, and that was killer.  As of yesterday I am comfortably able to swim 10-12 laps per workout (I add 1 more lap each week).  It’s amazing the differences 7 weeks [...]

As you can see there have been a few changes made to IbrahimHusain.com.  While I enjoy blogging on my personal site, I decided that I could also use it as a profile for some freelance work.  So I will be using the site as a portfolio for my design work, as well as my writing [...]

So I’ve always fancied the idea of swimming daily.  Swimming has always been an enjoyable experience for me, ever since childhood backyard barbeques and visits to my grandpas house.  Swimming seems so soothing and calming, almost like meditation.  But when it came to exercising, I always went for the more popular jogging or more recently [...]

We use the theory almost every day, and yet when put into certain situations, we ignore it like it never existed;  It’s the Right-Left Theory (Or the Left-Right Theory for you Brits and Aussies).  We drive our cars on the right side of the road, to avoid chaos and promote a safe, relatively traffic free [...]

For many of us starting out in the web development field, choosing hosting can be a daunting task.  I was hoaxed into buying web hosting with 1&1 Web Hosting, and while I haven’t had any problems yet, I’ve only heard terrible things.  To clarify for any other noobs like myself, I did a little [...]

The Brain Vault is my newest project.  It is an exclusive online community (register by invite only) for professionals to share and collaborate on different ideas, many of which they don’t enough time to devote to themselves or are looking for a little professional help with.  I have chosen to keep this forum invite only [...]

“Be the change you want to see in the world.” “Whenever you are confronted with an opponent. Conquer him with love.” “Whenever you have truth it must be given with love, or the message and the messenger will be rejected.” With ideas like these, it’s no wonder Mahatma Gandhi was one of histories greatest men.
