Pushup update

When I started this project I was only able to do 3-5 good form pushups, which was simply pitiful. After going through 2 weeks of the 100 pushups program I am now able to complete 20 good form pushups with little strain on my body. This is not the goal I have set for myself, but is certainly good progress.

Add that with the general workout process and I am happy overall. Once the weather gets better here in the East coast I plan to do more outdoor running as the treadmill (indoor) is not as satisfying.

Radio silence or failure

The term Radio Silence is a status in which all fixed or mobile radio station in an area stop transmitting (Source: Wikipedia).

In this case, I am using it to describe the fact I have been MIA from the blogging scene for almost two weeks now. Between work, work and more work I really didn’t have time to spend writing or even reading blogs. Then when I got back to the slower time in my work schedule I started to get sick, which slowed things down more.

During my non-blogging time I did find some time to workout, but not nearly as much as I originally planned to, which for being the first month of the new plan is not great progress! That being said I have never given up that easily, so today I got back into it and even threw in a rigid eating schedule to ensure the best possible results. I even found yet another iPhone application, which this time is used to track your food intake and even set limits based on weight goals.

The application, “Lose It!” is a free download from the App store, and has been developed for quick updates in mind. You can add or search for common foods which allows you to update your log more easily when you eat similar things, such as Cheerios for breakfast.

That’s about it for now, I will be sure to update more frequently as I get back into the daily schedule. I will even try to post some non-fitness topics once in a while to keep it interesting.
