A. F. (after feast)

20.20.15.12.14. 81 total.

My initial plan was to do sets of 20. That didn't last too long. Maybe I'm lugging extra weight. That could be why I can't keep improving.

weight room

I took a week and a half off. Not intentionally. Hit the weights hard today though. My bench has improved, so that's neat. Happy holidays. Crank the sets, cram the turkey.

Missed a few days, but still improving.
50 is in my sights and closing.

Mon - 33, Wed - 43

Strength in numbers

day after

I've been just ripping sets here and there throughout the day. I did get 30 one time, so that was neat. What are opinions on doing workouts the day after?

20.23.17.12.15. total = 87. I maxed every set except the first. 90 sec rest.

i just got CRAZY

I tried a new workout today: 10 pushups/set with 30 sec. rest. Here's how it went.

7 x10. 9. 6. 6. 5. 4. 4. 2x3 (20 sec. rest). 2x2 (15 sec. rest). 1 (10 sec). 2. 1 (5 sec. rest)

I guess you'd call this a burnout. 118 total.

are we taking applicants?

Laura (my cousin and skibrain's daughter) wants to join the blog. She can only do 3 pushups. Do we let her on? I think she may just want to read the posts.....er...I mean the tales of valor.

pushups...one week later

It's been a week since I've done pushups. 20.18.18.10(hands much closer together, for variety).16. Total = 82.

I watched myself in the mirror today, and I realized that I'm going down really deep. Having long arms is not an asset when it comes to pushups.

I stopped labeling. Where am I? Lost on a journey.

I need my Pecto brothers!

OK, guys I can't do this alone...

Week 6, basically one max set, Mon, Wed, Fri.

40 - 42 - 42

My Bosom is made of Shale

30 secs till I'm supposed to start my MAX set. I'm gonna wait a while.

until then my march to Mordor today has been... 36 40 30 24

{one min. rest between sets. never leaving all fours during sets}



uh buoy. I feel like my chest is made out of Quikrete.

I wish I had a Samwise Gamgee to carry me.

I'm gonna pass on the 40 rep max. I just tried doing one pushup after 5 min. break but the Quikrete was already curing. Have you ever dripped sweat while doing pushups? me neither, until tonight.

ps. my abs are getting just as good of a workout as my pecs and tri's.

My week

So, last week I started my regiment of 35+ push-ups 3x a week for life?
We'll see how long this lasts... BFF

40 - 39 - 40
