Pushups were a little tough this morning. Legs are a little sore from yesterdays workout. Thinking about going swimming this afternoon before Hanna comes our way.
Awesome job on tracking and the pushups!!!
It's cool so many are doing it with you. That's why I love this site, for those of us that are not around fitness people.

My boyfriend's gotten the push up bug too - he's more into it than I thought he'd be, which is pretty cool. And we're trying to outdo some of our college friends, so its fun.

Planning this week's workouts are going to be tough - Celine Dion concert, night class, teaching swim lessons - so much going on. I may have to do an abbreviated lunch time version or a super late session after class.
FLI A.5

Cable Row 3 x 10 @ 60,70,70

I took a few days off because I was racing on Sunday, and I don't like to lift weights right before race day. I did a Sprint Tri at the Jersey Shore. Despite lack of training, I did fairly well and held together a solid run/bike/swim. The swim was incredibly rough.
Monday was a recovery day (and I needed to study for grad class), and today I was back in the gym at lunch time.
---------------------
I decided to stretch FLI with 2 extra workouts, so it'll end right before I leave for a Columbus Day holiday at the happiest place on earth. That way my rest week ever so nicely falls on a vacation week. No rest on vacation though, running a Race for the Taste 10k at Epcot and bf & I will be continuing the pushup challenge.
Its hard to believe its been 4 weeks of pushups - a few others in my alumni pushup group are slowing down and not posting progress. I think there are a few injuries. Bf and I are still going strong. Week 4 workouts are definately tough.
Front Squat 3 x 12 @ 25, 35, 40
Wide Grip Row 3 x 12 @ 50, 60, 60
Supine Hips with Leg Curl 3 x 12
Barbell push press 3 x 12 @ 30, 40, 45
Dynamic Lunge 3 x 12 @ 40, 45, 45
Upper body russian twist 3 x 12
First workout back from vacation. I took it light tonight to learn the exercises and get back into the swing of things. It took less than an hour, which will make it a good lunch time session next time around.
I decided to redo week 4 of the pushup challenge since I went on vacation.
21, 25, 21, 21, 35 (R 60 sec)
FL 2 B.1
Snatch Grip DL 3 x 12 @ 60
T-push up 3 x 12 @ BW, 5lb wgts, 7.5lb wgts
Bulgarian split squat w/ overhead press 3 x 12 @ 10s
Chin Ups 3 x 12 @ 64lb, 64lb, 58lb assists
RDL/Bent Row 3 x 12 @ 35, 40, 45
Lower Body Russian Twist 3 x 12 @ BW
My legs were shaking after completing the split squats. Oh my. I like this workout better than A, I think. I layed low on the DLs since it was workout 1. I'll amp it up next week. By the end of FL2 I'd like to be able to do chin ups with close to no assists. I think that would be pretty cool.
I think I skipped a couple posts, but I've been sticking with it and progressing (despite not posting pics). My browser wouldn't open jpfitness and then sunday, when it did, I felt so blah and stomach achy that taking pictures was the last thing I wanted to do.
Snatch Grip DL 3 x 10 @ 60, 60, 70
T-push up 3 x 10 @ 5lb, 10lb, 10lb

RDL/Bent Row 3 x 12 @ 50, 50, 60
