Push It Up – Week 3, Day 1
Posted by AndymanFeb 17
Quick post before I go to bed. I was side-tracked by the Olympics and wanted to get this out quick (PS – Shaun White is a freakin’ monster) Started Week 3 today. Arms were a little sore, but I can definitely feel like things are loosening up, especially my first couple of sets. It’s not as hard to get started as it used to be (that’s what she said) My sets today:
12, 17, 13, 13, 30 (max set – min. of 17)
I am especially proud of that last set. I also go into a max set telling myself to get at least 5 – 7 more than the min. (usually depends on what it is, like today’s was 17, I was telling myself 25) I probably shouldn’t do that – mainly because I hit 25 fairly easily, but then it was like night and day – my arms knew I didn’t need anymore. But I powered through five more, and felt great about it. That is 75 pushups in one night. I can’t tell you the last time I did that many in one night (probably never) And to think – in a little over three weeks, I will be doing 100 IN A ROW! Rock out, kiddies

Well done, Andyman! I know the intensity of that pushup program ramps up pretty dramatically further in, so good luck, I think you are doing really well!
I saw your status on facebook about morning donuts, hehe. Just remember that if you want to improve your diet, you don’t neccessarily have to forego these things entirely, but if you do choose to partake, you’ll really want to try to keep portion control in mind
Keep it up Andy, I’m rooting for you!
