It was a tough day today. On the good side, I had off, so I was able to sleep in and take it easy. On the bad, I did something to my back and it was killing me all day. I almost didn’t do my workout for today, but I figured you gotta work through the pain sometimes. I stretched extra before hand, just trying to work out whatever it was I did in my back. And actually, my back didn’t hurt as much as I thought it would while doing my pushups. With the hundred pushups program, for Week 2, you stick with the same column you did during Week 1 (which for me was the second column) It starts off much like Week 1 did, but with a little more progression in the next two days. My sets today:

9, 8, 6, 4, 14 (max set, minimum of 7)

And I just noticed something interesting now. I have been logging my pushups on DailyBurn, just as part of my workouts. I went to the hundred pushups website to remind myself when you do the stress test, and they have different numbers for their sets (should be doing more at this point). It is possible that the guy that put this workout into DailyBurn was using old numbers, but I think I am going to switch to the actual current program numbers from the hundred pushups website. The next two workouts might be a little bit more of an increase than I should be doing, but I want to make sure I am following the program as closely as possible (and really, a few extra pushups sure won’t kill me)

Being Monday, I also weighed myself today. Now I really haven’t been eating the greatest lately, especially today, so I am not surprised that I went up, but 2 pounds surprised me. Granted I have never really trusted my scale, but that is what it said – so that is what I put in. No secrets here, blog followers Just gotta keep doing better!
