    I'm just having a hard time facing the prospect of doing Week 5, Column 2 for yet a third time - even though I'm pretty sure if I do it that way, I'll finally be able to hit the minimums in the last sets.

    It just doesn't feel like progress, even though I did more last week than I had the week before.

    I'm about half inclined to go on to Week 6, Column 1 and call it a "rest week," since it's significantly less than Week 5, Column 2 with the exception of the last sets. I'm afraid to try Week 5, Column 3. Maybe Week 6, Column 1 this week, and Week 5, Column 3 next week.

    I'll see how I feel later today.

    Well, you all are doing great. I have been VERY lazy the last couple of weeks, and managed 3 or 4 days in 2 weeks. So -- congrats to ANYONE who got in close to 3 days last week!

    After 4 days off, I dropped this am to WEEK 4, COLUMN 2, DAY 1.
    Because My arms just didn't want to do any more! My brain didn't jump into the fight at all, either.

    So I'll work back up this week and see where I am. I'm ok taking several more weeks to do this. I think that WEEK 5 is QUITE a JUMP, and may just have to be repeated several times by most people. I would not be discouraged to do it multiple times. You are doing 150 to 180 pups each day with that plan! Show me others who can do that?! It's very impressive if you think about it that way!

    My day today -- the "end" of my "week":
    18, 18, 16, 16, 25 = 93 for me today! What a drop! Hopefully the rest of the week will be more energetic for me!

    Boot Camp PUPS

    Yike! Went to boot camp last night, and they had stations set up.
    We did 3 sets, of two minutes each time through. One of them pushups.

    So 6 minutes total of push-ups , distributed among other upper body workout stations. Wow -- I felt like I didn't do very well. Ended up on my knees a lot, but then when I looked around, even the guys were all on their knees. Maybe I did ok. But I was sure glad that I didn't do my regular sets earlier in the day!
