  1. Double Ewe, Tea, Eff Day Even Is It!?!?

    This must be a little what it feels like to be lost in space.

    Short blog, for those out there following along at home.

    As you know, a few months ago, I started a new Fitness Challenge thing, just to see if I could do it. One More Push Up Every Day, but I did 5 a day for the first five days.... Then I did 10 a day until day number 10. Then 11, then 12, then 13, etc.

    It was going well, and I was pretty happy with it. Ok, I wasn't HAPPY, per say. Pushups suck. As an old guy who's never really done any strength training at all, especially upper body , they were awful. Every damn day, the last 2 or 3 were very much a struggle bus.

    Well, December, frigg'n December, busy, gig-full, medical school-full, let's not kid around PARTY full December really kicked the crap out of my challenge. I had made it to the high 80's when the wheels came off.

    So here's my plan. I started the first challenge on an arbitrary day, so there's no reason Take 2 can't also be on an arbitrary day too. January 1st, I'm going to start again. 25 per day, until Jan 25th, and then 1 more per day, till day 100.

    Then, I'll see where I go from there

    Cheers eh

  2. I had to take a few days off, cause apparently between the pushups, the endless Xmas Music gigs, and probably all the #PS5 #GTARacing I did my wrist an injury.....

    But, 86 fkn pushups today.... 25 in the first set even

    I'd like to 86 this BS, NGL
