Workout: Strength
Equipment Used: Bodyweight
Duration: ~20 min
Driver: N/A
Calories: ???
Quality Level: N/A
Observations/Intel: Here's how things shook out today:
Incline push-ups: BWX10, BWX20, BWX15
Flat push-ups: BWX8, BWX10, BWX8
Decline push-ups: BWX6, BWX6, BWX8
Flat crunches: BWX30, BWX30, BWX20
For the push-ups, I went down in order of the positions as listed, so a full " push-up set" would be 1 set ea of those positions, in that order. For the Inclines, the first set at 10 was because my socks were sliding on the carpet and I stopped to put on shoes. For the last set at 15, I had a bit of a coughing fit (allergies decided to raise their ugly head). If not for those elements, count would have been higher. I suspect that the count is higher on those not so much because my upper Chest is that much stronger than the rest, but because my Arms have less bend travel and stay more within the power curve.
Overall, it's a marked improvement from last time. I'm rethinking my idea on totals of the push-ups, though, as that winds up being 300 push-ups total, which is quite a lot...I'm not close to 25 reps per set, other than on the Inclines, but now that I've seemingly worked out all the extraneous kinks and can focus on the actual exercise, that may change more rapidly than expected. Crunches seems about right in terms of numbers, however, so no change necessary there.
Weigh-in today was 239. Winter makes my typically sluggish body metabolism even more so, definitely need to take pains to keep things as clean as possible, at least until I'm able to resume the gym. 3 workouts to go to hit 100...
