Enough Said.
Hehe. But I've got to say more. Let's talk numbers. This week, I upped my pull/Chin up number from 10 to 12. I was considering keeping it at 10 for the third week in a row, but I figured, Man, I got to push it today. So I upped it to 12. I kept my push up number at 25. I struggled with 25 last week, so I want to get straight 25 every set without coming to my knees.
The first block went well. I hit my numbers on the money. The block with chin ups, I had to break up the Chin ups, 8-4 for both sets. I was able to keep the 25 with the Military Push ups, but I could feel the burn and pain coming.
Third block with the close grip pull ups was tough. First set went 4-4-4, and the second set, 6-3-3. I was able to keep 25 wide push ups, but needed a couple mid-set breaks. I DID NOT break plank, stayed up the whole time.
The fourth block was good. First set of Vaulter pull ups I did 6-4-2, and then the second set went 4-5-3. The staggered push ups were better, but I took a few mid-set breaks after 15 reps, then after 5's. But for just a breath. The Staggered push ups are placed well because they are easier to do than say, Military or even standard.
Burn out, I was able to push it and do 12 sets of the 1 pull up and 3 push ups cycle. That is one more than the previous week. However, the last set of push ups was after Tony called time.
I was basically winded the whole workout and when I checked my calorie burn, I had burned over 650kcals. Close to 800 for the whole workout including the Cold Start and my extra stretch and cool down.
Got a great burn and pump! Felt really good, and my arms were shaking for about 20 minutes afterwards.
Great way to start the day!
