My Fitness Level

Getting those push ups at work!
I'm less than three months away from my 31st birthday. So, I've been trying my hardest to keep my body in shape so I'll be around for another 31 years. Number one on that list is working out. With my schedule I don't really have a whole lot of spare time. But, a friend of mine came up with an idea that has really stuck with me for the last month or so. All it involves is 100 push-ups a day. A Little more than 45 days into the workout and I'm already up to 50 push-ups in one set. By the way, I don't think I've ever been able to do 50 push-ups in one set even when I was at my fittest in high school and college. When I started I could barely do 25 push-ups in one set. The goal now is to keep moving up in increments until I can do all 100 in one set (yea right). Two things I've noticed about doing these push-ups- better posture, more energy/more alert (gets the blood pumping.) The great thing is I can do those push-ups anywhere. I usually do one set at home and one at work. I realize this will work for the upper body, but I'm going to need to get out on that track to get my "cardio" up. My excuseup to this point has been that it was covered in snow. Spring has sprung!


The other side to staying healthy is eating better. Goal one- stay away from the #1 and #2 at McDonald's.
