PowerPUPs Week 1

**GLC1968** · 09-09-2008, 09:01 PM

I just did my first workout tonight. It was HARD...but it's supposed to be, right? 10-10-8-6-8 I might have eaked out one more on the last set if one of our dogs didn't take that moment to lick my ear!

If I can't do Thursday's workout, I may be asking to move down a group. We'll see though...

week one day 2
WOW!!!! I cant believe how weak I am. So embarrassing . I did 4-3-2-2-4 I don't know if I got down far enough ,but I did my best. I put on the "Rocky 1" movie for motivation. I'm 54.

Cut it out with the negative self-talk will ya all!

Am I going to have to make you drop and give me... never mind.

You're getting stronger! "Rocky," well okay but that's a guy. "GI Jane," whichever "Terminator" movie that was, also the TV series that I never saw. How about the "Wonder Woman" theme song, forget the brass bra, or the "Bionic Woman." Powerful wimmins, that's us, and getting more powerful day by day!!

**suzieqtwa** · 09-10-2008, 07:28 AM

Thanks for the pep talk Oak....no more negative talk from me...at least we are trying right???

**GLC1968** · 09-10-2008, 09:27 AM

Ahhhh - I have that lovely little tightness/soreness in my upper body today. It's been SOOOO long since I've felt that anywhere but in my legs and I'm actually really enjoying it.

Does that make me a freak?

Week 1 / Day 2

4/3/2/2/6 = total 17

that's good for me.

... and I just got home from an 8mile trail run which makes it all better... I sooooooooo love trail running.

Time for sushi!!

but I can't update the sheet... am I supposed to update it myself?

I felt like crap doing the first couple sets but then seemed to get a bit stronger

week 1/day 3 = 5/4/4/3/7 for a total of 23

**OakLeaf** · 09-12-2008, 06:10 PM

I'm in charge of the spreadsheet

- you're in.

**HoosierGiant** · 09-12-2008, 06:21 PM

Week 1 / Column 1 / Day 3 = 5, 4, 4, 3, 11 = 27

Chicago..thanks :-)

Everyone is doing a great job from everything I'm reading

I think my pushups come from muscle memory of the 9 years I spent in the USMC...

so many years of doing soooooo many pushups...

I even told myself it's one of the things I'd never do again after I got out

Great job, everyone!!! It doesn't matter who can do more, its the fact that we are all doing our best - and getting better!!!

**milkbone** · 09-14-2008, 04:23 AM

Ok...week one..done!

day 1 - 10/10/8/6/20 = 54

day 2 - 12/12/10/10/25 = 69

day 3 - 15/13/10/10/34 = 82

Awesome first week girls! Keep it up!

Holy toledo..thats 205 for the week

**katluvr** · 09-14-2008, 09:04 AM

I admit, I dropped to column 2 after the 1st day.
It just seems more "do-able".

So day 3, column 2 total = 44.

One week down and 5 to go...can't believe I'll be doing over 100!!
