Week 1 Day 2

So the second day of the program.

The schedule was (I'm going to use PU for push-ups, SQ for squats and SU for sit-ups):

PU: 10 12 8 8 12+
I did: 10 12 8 4 4

SQ: 13 16 13 13 16+
I did: 13 16 13 13 30

SU: 15 18 15 15 18+
I did: 15 18 15 15 21

I've had some serious muscle aching and stiffness last two days, but today I was fine. A little bit sore but not so much that I couldn't do the exercises.

I felt that the push-ups actually went but worse then the last time but the score is a bit better. I still think the program is a bit to steep for me here. The first set went fine, but I really struggled with the second and didn't improve after that. My muscles were already pulp. So the last 3 sets went very slowly, but I tried to get the maximum out of my arms and chest. Until it just didn't go any longer.

After that I did the squats, those were fairly easy. I tried to pay more attention to form this time and to slow down a bit. That made it a bit tougher, but I still completed the program fairly easy.

I did the same for the sit-ups. Take it slow and pay more attention to form. I actually didn't complete as many sit-ups as last time, but I finished up by doing some reverse crunches.

So .. that was that. On to day 3. That will probably be Saturday.
