Hey everyone, had a really great work out today. Getting comfortable at the current gyms i'm working out at so i'll be able to keep up the work load. This is what i did today.

morning:
20 minutes airdyne
1 hour of leg lifts including squats, leg extenion, step ups, calf raises, and a couple more.
In between each set i pounded out 20-40 push ups and some abs. I figure i did between 350 and 400 push ups easily and then did 4 sets of max push ups. I made sure i never rested between any sets. I was constantly in motion and sweating profusely. Thus, it was a great cardio burn too.

afternoon:
4 mile run - 30:00
swim -
500 y freestyle
250 y kick board w/ fins
500 y freestyle
250 y kick board w/ fins
10x25 underwater on 1:30
250 y kick board w/ fins
100 free/100 breast/100 free/100 breast

Today marks a new record for swim distance at 2400-2500 yards. Just a couple months ago i was struggling to make 1000 in one session. Very pleased with the progress.

-Daniel

I will never be a real swimmer because I do not measure my swim distance in yards. Congrats on the new PR.

Hey everyone, sorry for neglecting to post the last 2 days. Saturday was a day off and an uneventful one at that. Today i took it easy on my upper body because i'm developing some soreness in my right shoulder. I'm getting frustrated because i want to continue to lift, but i want to heal so i'm 100% too. I'm sort of stuck in a hard place. This is what i did today.

morning:
4.5 mile run - 32 minutes

afternoon -
swim freestyle - 30 minutes/~1800 yards
10 underwater 25's on 1:30 (relaxing)
1 underwater 50 (not relaxing)
45 minute bike ride
abs
stretch

As i said my shoulder has been bothering me for the past week. I don't know if i'll be doing push ups and pull ups this week. I iced a good amount today and hopefully will see some benefit from it tomorrow.

-Daniel

Hey everyone, been a few days since a post. Just haven't gotten down the basement much, i'm still working out as much as always though. 2 Days ago i did 75 pull ups so i'm still making good progress.

This is what i did today.

morning:

1 minute bike sprint
30 push ups
30 sit ups
8 dips
30 flutter kicks (4 count)
8 chin ups
Took 16:50

AFternoon:
3 mile run - 22:30
3x10 pull ups
3x8 curls @ 60 lbs
30 minute stationary bike
minor abs

Be careful overexerting yourself... Injuries are like minus 50 days progress... Keep that in mind.

Hey everyone, been awhile since my last post. Been doing really great lately, and still be working out a ton. I think i limited myself to zero christmas cookies and 2 glasses of champagne this holiday season. So been staying very focused as well. My past test went like this, at least for the cals.

pull ups: 17
sit ups: 74
push ups: 83
flutter kicks: 90

All of the above scores are for 2 minute maxes.

-Daniel
