I started to do a self modified workout today. I will be happy with 50 by 50. Did 89 pushups in 5 sets of 20, 20, 15, 10, 24. Much more like it. This felt like a good workout, not torture. Hit balls and did 3 sets of crunches. Well, It’s obvious I won’t hit 100 pushups in 6 weeks. I started to do a self modified workout today. I will be happy with 50 by 50.

Having never made it out of the 30's, I'm in week 6 limbo. Week 6 day 1, again. 130 reps did the last set of 40 as 8 sets of 5 on :15. Did 3 sets of crunches after the pushups. Here's video of the set of 30. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xREibnYPJdQ Well, they give you 6 weeks to get to 100 and apparently, if you don’t make it to 100, you end up in week 6 limbo.

Not all of them are swimming at Harvard, but the majority are. Swam today, ended up in a lane with 6 or 7 ANA women who have been training their butts off.

Still can't get past the mid-thirties. I've had a few days rest while traveling. Other than a copious amount of 12 oz curls, no training. Oh well, keep on doing pushups. Did legs after the max effort. Scheduled to do a max effort today. Still can’t get past the mid-thirties. I’ve had a few days rest while traveling.

They add reps too fast. I've already extended the rest and barely got through the 4th set. The last set was 50! Right! I did it as 10x5 on :15. I think I'll be modifying the workouts from her. I don't think I'm in such a rush to get to 100. Shoulders still feel OK. Legs and pushups today. 170, most ever. They add reps too fast.
