In happier (less whiny) news, I have completed my push-up challenge!!!
Never under estimate my desire to prove myself post fight-with-my-husband!!!
First set: 26
Second set: 15
Third set: 10
Total: 51
I went over by rote. I forgot that I was done. Whoops.
I should have timed myself between sets. There were less than a minute apart. Just enough time to curse and send the blood scurrying around my body looking for more oxygen.
I may never lift anything again, but it's done.
I haven't been training outright for this challenge. I have, however, been Jillian-ing. And as everyone knows, it's her favourite strength exercise. How could I not improve?!
Two down, one to go!!
That is a very awesome amount of push-ups! And push-ups are super evil! I still struggle to do a full set of push-ups during any Jillian interval, so I think it would take me a year of training to make it to 50 in one day!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
Yay! Pushups are so hard - and such a great way of measuring overall fitness! Much better than a weight!
