10 Sixpack Pumping Home Exercises

Membentuk sixpack memang salah satu yang paling sulit dibandingkan dengan membentuk otot-otot lainnya pada tubuh, namun bukan berarti tidak mungkin untuk dicapai bukan?
Pada pembahasan kali ini, kita akan membahas beberapa jenis latihan untuk fitnes yang dianggap paling efektif menurut penelitian untuk mencapai sixpack. Dan berita gembiranya, khususnya bagi Anda yang sibuk, latihan ini dapat Anda lakukan tanpa harus pergi ke tempat fitnes! Namun sebelum kita mulai membahas mengenai gerakan-gerakan latihan yang cocok untuk mempertajam sixpack, mari kita kenalan lebih jauh terlebih dahulu dengan otot-otot perut kita.
Pada dasarnya otot perut dapat diklasifikasikan menjadi 4 bagian; rectus abdominis, external obliques, internal obliques, dan transversus abdominis. Rectus abdominis inilah yang kemudian sering disebut juga dengan otot sixpack. Disamping otot sixpack ini terletak otot external dan internal obliques. Otot transverses abdominis merupakan otot terdalam, posisinya dibawah internal obliques. Otot ini memiliki peran penting untuk membuat perut terlihat rata.

Patch untuk Mengaktifkan Aero Glass pada Windows 7 Home Basic dan Starter

Seperti yang sudah diketahui, Windows 7 Home Basic dan Starter adalah versi Windows 7 dengan harga yang paling murah dan sangat terjangkau untuk kantong mahasiswa. Biasanya Windows 7 edisi ini di-bundling dengan penjualan netbook di negara-negara berkembang. Kekurangannya adalah pengaturan yang diperketat, tidak adanya fitur-fitur GUI Aero seperti Aero Glass, Aero Peek, Aero Shake, Aero Snap, Flip 3D, dan lain-lain. Selain itu, Anda juga tidak dapat memilih opsi “Personalize” pada menu konteks di Desktop yang berguna untuk mengubah tema, latar belakang, dan sebagainya.
Sebelumnya pada artikel terdahulu, saya sudah memberikan trik untuk mengaktifkan Aero dengan metode registry. Pada kesempatan kali ini, saya memberikan sebuah trik untuk mengaktifkan fitur-fitur Aero tersebut pada Windows 7 Home Basic dan Starter dengan menggunakan sebuah patch berukuran kecil.

Mikrotik Hotspot Hacking

Satu lagi cara berinternet gratis yaitu dengan meng-hack hotspot mikrotik. Sebenarnya cara ini sudah basi, tetapi karena baru saja saya mempraktekan maka saya tulis langkah-langkahnya. Disamping untuk mengingat kalau lupa kan bisa  untuk sharing buat yang lain, yang mungkin belum tahu atau masih kurang paham. Biasanya kalau kita terhubung dengan hotspot mikrotik maka kita akan dihadapkan dengan menu mikrotik login sebelum kita bisa browsing.
Cara ini adalah untuk mem-by pass mikrotik login, sebenarnya lebih tepat kalau disebut cloning client. Intinya kita tidak harus login dulu untuk bisa browsing, karena target sudah login. Kita sebagai clone-nya jadi tidak perlu login. Trik ini hanya bisa jalan selama client yang kita clone masih terhubung ke hotspot.
Berikut langkah-langkahnya :
  1. Download dulu program Netcut, program ini untuk mengetahui MAC address yang terhubung dengan kita. Netcut bisa didownload disini.
  2. Koneksikan komputer kita dengan hotspot mikrotik
  3. Jalankan program Netcut
  4. Pilih LAN Card / NIC yang kita gunakan dengan mengklik menu Choice NetCard
  5. Kemudian klik OK kembali ke layar utama, pilih salah satu network yang terkoneksi yang akan kita jadikan target (dalam contoh ini yang menjadi target adalah network dengan IP 192.168.182.18).  Yang jelas bukan network kita atau network server.
  6. Salin IP address dan MAC address, bisa juga dengan mengklik PrintTable kemudian blok dan copy paste ke notepad untuk langkah selanjutnya.
  7. Setelah dipaste di notepad langkah selanjutnya edit nilai MAC address, pada contoh ini [00:26:5E:60:81:1C]. Hilangkan tanda [:] sehingga menjadi 00265E60811C. Nilai ini yang akan kita gunakan untuk merubah MAC address kita.
  8. Selanjutnya kita disable dulu wireless LAN kita. Kemudian buka properties wireless LAN dan ubah nilai Local Administration MAC Network, default kosong. Isi dengan nilai tadi, pada contoh ini 00265E60811C
  9. Kemudian kita set IP wireless LAN kita dengan IP yang sama yaitu 192.168.182.18 dan isi juga DNS server address.

    Untuk DNS server address bisa dicek sebelum kita merubah MAC dan IP. Jadi waktu pertama kali kita terhubung ke hotspot, dengan cara mengetik perintah dari command prompt
    C:\>ipconfig/all
  10. Langkah terakhir adalah meng-enable kembali wireless LAN kita. Sekarang kita bisa browsing tanpa harus ijin pada yang punya hotspot.
  11. Hasil :
