mgrill's Journal, 02 September 2014

Good ol' pyramid workout today. Start with 1 pull-up, 2 push-ups, 3 sit-ups. Second round - multiply by 2 (2 pull-ups, 4 push-ups, 6 sit-ups). Third round - multiply by 3 (3 pull-ups, 6 push-ups, 9 sit-ups). Continue rounds up to failure on pull-ups and then go back down the 'ladder'.

I try to do this workout once a week. I'm able to increase up to round 5 now. Which, when I add it all up (going back 'down the ladder'), equals 25 pull-ups, 50 push-ups, and 75 sit-ups. I'm getting there. It's definitely taken time to get here...and I don't want to quit now.

Had a nice holiday weekend. Despite the weather, we were able to enjoy some time outside. Today was back to school...excited and nerve wracking, but glad to get back to this routine.

cool! Nice accomplishment! I just started to max out my pull ups and push ups once every two weeks. I could only do 6 pull ups and 32 push ups last time. I will hopefully get more this Friday! Keep progressing, your doing awesome.
