Last week I posted about the one hundred push ups challenge. As many of you know, I’ve been trying to shed a few pounds and get back into shape, so I decided that I would do this program.
On Friday after I got home from work, I did the initial test. Sadly, I wasn’t able to get out of “Rank 2″ before my arms gave out on me. I thought I was in beter shape (not great mind you) but this made it painfully clear to me just how far I had fallen.
Today (less than 30 min ago) I started the Week 1 program. I sit here typing this post now with aching arms. It burns now, and I know I’ll be sore tomorrow. But, that’s a good sign. Muscle burn means that they are working. I can already tell that this program is going to make a difference.
No pain, no gain. Right? Now it’s time for me to hit the treadmill.
