I am very happy with my performance today. In the Chest and Back routine I was up in every set from last week except for the dreaded decline push-ups. All of my push-ups are “on-Knee” right now and In the past I had figured out how to do decline push-ups “on-knee”. This week I was trying to think about the physics and thought that perhaps on-knee decline push-up may actually be harder than regular decline push-ups. So today I attempted regular decline push-ups and still was not able to do any. I know this will change as time goes on, so I will keep on trying. I also made some improvements in Ab Ripper X. I made it through to the end of the routine only skipping three of the twelve moves. I of course did not come close to doing 25 reps each on the moves that I did participate in, but I participated and in most cases improved from week 1. My weight is flat from yesterday, “chalked up” to the low intensity routine. I burned 944 Calories today, so I am expecting to see some loss tomorrow.
