Day 2: 100 Pushups
by Harlem on Mar.28, 2009, under Fitness
Just to clarify somethings, when I say day two, I mean the second exercise day of the program. Essentially, the program is divide up into seven weeks and within each week are three exercise days. In other words, each week participants will be doing pushups three days of that particular week preferably with a rest day in between pushup days and two days of rest between the last pushup day of the week and the first pushup day of the next week.
Day 2 consists of:
- Set 1 : 10 pushups
- Set 2 : 12 pushups
- Set 3 : 8 pushups
- Set 4 : 8 pushups
- Set 5 : Max # no less than 9
I can fully say that this day was quite a bit easier than the first day and I was somewhat pleased by this. Muscles can adapt fairly quickly when it is afforded plenty of time to rest and a decent amount of nutrients not to mention being mindfull not to overtrain which is virtually impossible to do with this program. I am still working on the nutrient part, i.e., trying to maintain a properly balanced eating plan with plenty of the “good stuff” and less of the “bad stuff” (more on that later). But I do have the rest part pretty much handled, in fact, I consider myself and expert.Well, that is all, keep pushing!
