How many push-ups can you do in one go? Can you bust out 100?

Good luck with your training, looks like it is going well, when do you apply for the Navy Seals?

i can do about 65 in one go. That is with really focusing on correct form. If i slack on form i can do about 80, which really doesn't matter since perfect form is required. I'm not sure if i'm going to apply for navy seals or air force combat controllers. I've been doing research and am planning on speaking with a few recruiters in the near future.

This was my swim yesterday
swim-
100y warmup
500y free
4x50 underwater 25's sprint 25's
200 kick board
200y cooldown

max pullups-13 (found out they test pullups not chinups on the past. I'm better at chin ups)
pushups 65/45
abs

My workout today,

5 mile run this morning
pushups 40/40/30/30/20/20/20
situps matched the pushups

afternoon
tennis practice-1 hour
short sprint work-45 minutes

Heard of a cool workout idea. You buy a deck of cards and you match a type of pushup with the suit. hearts is normal, diamonds is closed grip, etc. Then you flip a card and do that many reps of that type of pushup. It turns out to be 368 i heard. Something i'm going to try and work to.

Nite

"max pullups-13 (found out they test pullups not chinups on the past. I'm better at chin ups)?

what is the diffrence?

Probably just overhand vs underhand. Amirite?

That card thing sounds awesome. Anything to break the monotony, eh?

Ya, monotony is getting to be an issue. also the pullups are tested overhand not underhand. not a huge difference, but i can definately tell it is using a different part of my tricep.

Anyhow, been 2 days since my last post. This is what i did yesterday.

wednesday morning:
1 hour full body lift

wednesday afternoon:
1 hour of tennis
30 minute stationary bike
6/6 wide grip pullups, 7/7 closed grip pullups, 7/7 chinups, 6/6 pullups
10x20 push ups superset with 10x20 situps

Felt REALLY GREAT about my workout yesterday. Did a total of 52 pullups. Feel like i'm making some great progress.

This was my workout today
morning:
30 minute stationary bike
8x25 push ups
8x25 sit ups
3 way planks

afternoon:
2.5 hours of tennis
1 hour of running drills

The pool reopens on monday. I'm going to start swimming a mile everyday. Going to need to run a little less, but i'm starting to feel some wear on my legs so i think the swimming is a good alternative. Plus, i need to really push the swimming. All in all it's a good plan for the next few weeks or so.

This is what i did today.

morning:
hour lift
3 300 yard shuttles
30 minute run in the pool

afternoon:
tennis 1 hr
140 pushups
abs
pullups: 2x6 wide, 2x7 closed, 2x6 under, 2x5 pullups

Hey everyone, decided to take my day off today instead of tomorrow. the rec was closed and i didn't feel like working out in my apartment. I have a million distractions in here and i can never focus for too long.

However, i did walk a lot today. I wanted to wake up early and get outside for a little light exercise. It was gameday here so i just strolled around the festivities for an hour or so.

-Daniel

Had a pretty good workout today.

Ran 2 miles
biked 30 minutes
10x20 pushups (alternated normal with knuckle)
10x20 situps
3 way planks
3 way crunches

took about an hour and 20 minutes. I was happy. tennis practice is over for the semester so i can start doing a little more of my own workouts. Makes me very happy.

-daniel

Had a good couple of workouts today.

Morning:
stationary bike - 20 minutes

2x6 wide grip pullups
2x7 closed grip pullups
2x7 chinups
2x6 pullups
Pushups - 40/40/30/30/20/20/10/10
Did abs between each set of push ups

Swam 1 mile - 28:04

Glad a finally swam a mile. Decided i'm going to swim a mile a day for the forseeable future. I was happy to be under 30 minutes but i can definately improve upon my time today. Considering i was having trouble swimming 100 yards about a month ago i've made some great progress in the pool.

afternoon:
full body lift - 1 hour

Had a great lift. Last 2 sets of bench i did 180. I think my previous max was about 185 so the fact that i could rep 180 2x3 made me really happy. I actually got it up pretty easy.

All in all a great day of work.

-Daniel

Hey EVERYONE! Had a good workout today, feeling really excited about the progress i'm making.

Felt good about the swim this morning. Going to keep on doing it. Tomorrow i get to do pull ups too. Curious to see if i can get the full 52 rep multi-set i've been going for. Monday i did it easy, but that was after an easy workout weekend. We'll see.

All right, had a good loooong workout today. Actually 2 looong workouts today. Pretty brutal and i'm having trouble keeping my eyes open at the moment.

Thinking back on the day the swim really kicked my ass. I dragged big time through the run and in the afternoon workout i really really felt like ****. Seems like after 4 or 5 days of these kind of workouts i am dragging. Tomorrow is the last workout day of the week and i'm looking forward to the rest.
