Hundred Push-up

push-ups1Well, I have been thinking about this for a while since, I had a young man visit my site and mentioned he was doing this.  It looked very interesting.  I am not good at push-ups at all.  I can do the modified ones like all day but the standard push-ups seem really difficult.  I have been working on my upper body in order to improve my push-ups.

So, today I decided I would jump into the challenge.  This challenge is suppose to have you be able to do hundred push-ups in 6 weeks.  What is it with these 6 weeks things.  Okay, I printed out the test and took it.

I could only do 10, I really thought I could do more, but if I did it would have put me in a bracket that I know is too hard.  So, 10 is good.  More than I have ever before.

Now, not sure if you are suppose to wait to start the initial workout, so I decided to try this workout today.  I started after I finished teaching my Body Chizel class.  We had already done 20 push-ups in class, modified of course, and we did regular bench press and wide chest presses.  So, what was I thinking when after class and everyone was gone, that I thought I could do these push-ups. 

I thought I have better do them now because if I wait then I know I will not do them.

Guess, what I did the bracket I was suppose to and at the end I was suppose to max out at 5 but I did 6.  yeah me!

I think I should be good for Wednesday.  I should do these push-ups first thing in the morning when I am fresh and not after I already worked out.  Then again, that is what I should.  Well, I will mix it up and see what happens.  It doen’t hurt to try.

Hey, if you are looking for a new challenge, come try the hundred push-up challenge with me.  A small goal for the new year.  Hey, now don’t forget about your eating-clean routine.  Want those abs to show through then, you are going to have to eat-clean.  NO more junk!

So, check out http://www.hundredpushups.com/  you can be added to the list with me.  Pkayfit.

Good Luck.  Let me know how you are doing.  I will do the same.  See you at the end of the week, I will let you know what happens.

Doubles Week

I switched my routine from the Power 90x lean routine to Power 90x Doubles routine.  why?  Well, because along with my eyesight I have lost some brain cells along the way. 

I thought with every cell in my being that I needed to push my self and add more cardio to my regimen.  I do, really, if I want to get rid of the stuff that is covering what many have told me is the rectus abdominis aka six-pack to show, then I am going to have to do more cardio.  Yuck!  I hate to run. I don’t have time to go to the base and get on the spin bike or treadmill.   I know I have said this before in the “What was I thinking” post.   Why can’t I just shove an enama up my you know what and just get it over with?  No, I couldn’t do that, I guess I will just have to eat bushels of apples, or is that bundles of apples? 

Well, I have gone running twice this week.  Two times too many this year.  I feel alot better and my shins are aren’t talking to me as much.  I guess that is good.  Now, I was suppose to do my chest, shoulders and triceps on Monday also, but man I was really exhausted after my workout in the morning class.  We really did work hard and I did not really want to because I knew I was suppose to do the Power 90x routine.  I put it off.  So, now I am behind and I did the routine today after my evening classes, which no one came for on Wednesday.  Now, I will have to do the back and biceps tomorrow which was suppose to be just YogaX.  Well, I have two Yoga classes to teach on Thurdady, so I will do those and figure out if I want to do the back and bicep routine after I have lunch with my friend.  You know priorities.  :) 

I think I will do a little jogging tomorrow again, not too bad so I will keep it up.  I will do my back and bicep routine.  I really need to get my push-up routine going as well.  When am I going to have time for all this blogging and working out?  Urgh!

I do have a dead line and I am sticking to it.  Just apples and yogurt.  Oh, and I found an awesome protein drink too.  it has a cinnamon taste to it.  I love cinnamon.

No excuses.
