one100grand » 13 Jun 2014, 09:49[/url]"]1/3 - 255.2 - no push-up number recorded
1/10 - 257.2 - 13 push-ups
1/17 - 255.6 - 17 push-ups
1/24 - 254.2 - 20 push-ups.
1/31 - 253.6 - no push-ups recorded
2/7 - 254 - 21 push-ups.
2/14 - 251.8 - I recorded 12 push-ups last night; I did a pretty intense weight training session on Wednesday night, so last night my muscles sore and I didn't want to push numbers and risk injury.
2/21 - 250.0 - push-ups = 17.
2/28 - 249.8
3/7 - 246.6 -
3/14 - 250.4 -
3/21 - 251.4 - I've also shifted my push-up focus to form first, then numbers. I've been doing 15-20 in the best form I can instead of trying to just push numbers.
4/4 - 249.2
4/11 - 250.0 - Pretty much just living in this range apparently.
4/18 - 248.8
4/25 - 249.8
5/2 - 247.4
5/9 - 249
5/16 - 246.8
5/23 - 246.2
5/30 - 245.4 - this now puts me as down over 10 pounds for the year! (I know my first number recorded here was 257.2, but I was 255.2 when the year started). I went to the gym and worked with my trainer on Saturday - it was an utter struggle, but I got through it. I had LASIK about a month ago and had to take time off from working out, then my wife graduated, and we went on vacation - needless to say my training has dipped significantly in the past month. Now that I'm through that stretch of inactivity and summer is here, it's time to trim down and work on fitness extra hard!
6/6 - 241.4 - I thought this got posted last week, but apparently not.
6/13 - 241.8 - I really thought that the number last week was an outlier, but I've got something close today, so I'll hope that it's a trend. I'm approaching a milestone number at 240; with my height, if I get under 240, it will mark the first time in my adult life that my BMI will qualify me as only overweight and not obese. I have been on a weight loss journey since 8/31/12 and a fitness journey since September of 2013 and to see years of effort almost at a life goal is pretty freaking awesome. I'm hopeful that I get to this goal soon, but seeing as I spent 5 months in the 250s and am only just over 2 months as solidly in the 240s, I expect that I've got some time before I get there. Since the end of June will mark the halfway portion of the year, I'm going to reassess my beginning of year goal on July 1 and see what I think is a reasonable goal (I'm hoping I can do better) moving forward.
