Since I’ve started on my masters, I’ve been really lazy. It’s easy to make the excuse not to work out since I have to do homework. Whether or not I actually do some homework us up for debate, but I definitely don’t work out. So this is my new goal, to be able to do 100 push-ups without stopping. There is a nifty website that lays it out, a three day a week program: One Hundred Pushups
My initial test was 17 push-ups without stopping, better than I thought I could do. That puts me at rank 3 for my age group. So my first work out will look like:
Set 1 – 10
Set 2 – 12
Set 3 – 7
Set 4 – 7
Set 5 – 9+ (max)
A sixty second rest between sets should be enough to finish the workout, they say. We’ll see. I did my initial test today, so if I’m not sore tomorrow, I’ll do day 1.
