:o I know, I know. LOL! It's just this week that I'll be skipping the rest day. Starting next week I'll do the workouts on Mon, Wed, Fri with rest days. I promise!! Thanks for the reminder though.Quote:

Some of you guys love to inflict guilt, don't ya?
Oh that was worse than day 1!
Group 2, Day 2- 9/8/6/5/11.
That was after a 2 mile jog, now I remember why I go to the jogging trail, it is flat and my neighborhood is not. Ooof.
I would rather have ran 20 km.
Column 2, Day 2: 9/8/6/5/7.
I tried to do 8... I couldn't push back up, fell on my knees!
Oh well.
Honestly? That's the definition of maxing out. We should ALL be doing that on the last set. Except, try not to disengage your core before you're flat - fall on your chest or your face instead ;)Quote:

On the rear delt flyes, see Wahine's cautions in this thread.
I will be starting this coming Monday... 9-8-08:eek: I could start today but M/W/F seems much more logical.... will give me the weekend to rest the arms... which I know I'm going to need!:eek:
The program seems hard though... I can only do 6 push-up right now... I find it hard to believe I will be doing a 100 in 6 weeks?:confused:
Week one, day 3, column 3: 63 pushups
That is the most I have ever done in a short period of time! I get nervous when I look ahead at weeks 5 and 6, so not going to do that any more! My husband and 2 sons are doing it too.
Gosh, I'm so very extremely epically excited that y'all are on the pup bandwagon. :p And Oakleaf, you are filling the PUC role PERFECTLY. I thought it might be fun for a bunch of us to share in the misery. The coaching and spreadsheet prowess (on the part of the PUS) are a big bonus.
I will do my pups tonight. Amazingly, I am not sore at all. But then, I hurt my foot last weekend (it had to do with wet flip flops, a large dog, and alcohol...stupidity on my part) and that seems to be the focus of my weekly pain energy (this week). Like the PUS, I like to get into child's pose in between sets. Actually, for the 90 second rests, I did a little bit of down dog and child's pose. Since the gaps will be longer today, maybe I'll be able to do a whole sun salute in between!
PUO
Week 1, Day 3, Column 2: 43 pushups. Wow. I'm impressed with myself! And my arms are really tired now!
Just read this. I am intrigueed. I feel challeged. And one thing I CAN do is push ups. (Or so I think!)
So can I start on Monday (9/8)? I guess I need to read all this to really undersand the "challenge".
AND If I start on Monday...should I start w/ week 2 of the plan?
Do I get extra credit for 14 lbs. of cat sitting on my butt while I try to do a push up? And another one that nibbles on my fingers? :rolleyes:
I did my group 1, week 1 day 3 workout this morning: 5/4/4/3/15 = 31.
But they were knee pushups. I can still barely eeke out one full pushup. But at least I'm getting closer to the ground with it. :cool:
