• HPC (W2 Exhaustion Test) + 300 Crunches: Uuuuuuuuuuh. :)

  Today was the HPC W2 (Week 2) exhaustion test. We are supposed to do as many good form push-ups as we can manage before collapsing into a small pool of mush onto the floor. :)I did 40 good form push-ups. To be honest, I took a few milliseconds break...

• HPC (D3W2) + 300 Crunches: There's A Good Reason To Do Those Push-ups Three Days A Week!

  OK, there's been a bit of a break between pushups workouts. It's been a whole 6 days. Yikes. Frankly, I've been feeling a bit fatigued (which is most likely due to the combination of my running mileage & increased pace!) & needed a little bre...

  D2W2 (HPC): Today's push-ups workout called for intervals of 14+16+12+12+max 17+ (with a minimum of 90 seconds rest in between sets). Did 14+16+12+12+25. Arms felt a bit tingly & face felt flushed on those last 5 push-ups. :)Also did my usual 30...

  I just realized that I ran around 24 miles this week (in 3 days). Last week I also did 24 mpw, but since it was spread out over 4 days, it definitely feels a whole lot different on the legs & the rest of the bod (in terms of overall fatigue)! ;-)...

• D1W1 (HPC): Just Getting 'Em Done

  Tonight's pushups workout called for intervals of 14+14+10+10+max 15+ (with a minimum of 60 seconds rest in between sets). I did 14+14+10+10+25.The last 3 pushups of the last set were really difficult to squeak out, but I was determined to do atleast...

• D3W1 (HPC): Another Day, Another Bunch of Pushups

  Posted on Monday January 19th, 2009 at 20:07 in situps, strength training workout, 100 pushups challenge

  Tonight's pushups workout called for intervals of 11+15+9+9+max 13+ (with a minimum of 120 seconds rest in between sets). I did 11+15+9+9+25.OK, not bad. Was feeling pretty peppy until that last set, when I started to tire around 22 pushups or so, &a...

• Sit-ups..... Or the Forgotten Posts :)

  I'm sure some of you might recall me mentioning the "Two Hundred Sit-ups Challenge" on this blog not that long ago. Well, since I did 200 crunches for the initial sit-ups test, I am in search of a new challenge. :)In the meanwhile, I've been doing 3...
