In case you missed my Friday plurk, I failed week two of the 100 push up challenge. I knew I was in trouble when I started, by arms were still aching from Wednesday’s workout. Unfortunately, it was my own fault.
You see, come Wednesday, I will feeling so good about my progress, I got a bit over confident. I hit the weights after my push ups, and did a number of arms exercises and basically did a “muscle burnout”. It probably wouldn’t have been that bad of a thing if I had done the weights on Friday, giving myself a few days until the next set.
So, now the question is, what do I do having failed a week? I certainly don’t want to give up, and I don’t feel like I should be following the “easier” routine. So, next week instead of progressing to the week three phase, I’ll redo week two. And this will be my standard practice. If I fail any part of the week’s routine, I’ll redo the week again until it has been successfully completed. Hopefully, that wont happen again.
