I started my morning p-ups too. 30 the first day (just testing the water), 35 the next day, and 40 this morning. I think 45 is attainable tomorrow. Maybe I can get back up sooner than I thought. (60+) If I plateu, I'll try out Sir Eric's regime.

I too need a chin-up bar. I really would rather not go to the gym again. At least not right now. My max 3 months ago was 16.

I'll see about the situps. Not too motivated about them yet. I was doing 69 of them before total fatique set in.

Periodic jump-roping will be added to my regime. Due to a knee injury, I find that I am able to run less and less as time goes on. I plan on running the mile for OE (even if I don't need the points). I'll have to see how my knee holds up for future tests. Sucks getting old.

w00t!

I got a chinup bar at walmart for about $10. I have to say, it's painfully annoying to do chinups in a doorway though. I'd try to rig something up outside or in your shop if you have enough vertical space to hang without bending your knees.

ok day one
on push ups I got the first 3 sets done , but I only 4 on the 4th on one. I'll retry it on wensday

on sit ups I got 4 sets done , on the last one I only got 8.

Thats day one I will try doing some jump rope on wensday.

Got all of my sets again today (pullups w1d1c1; situps w2d1c3; pushups w3d1c3)

The pullups were tough as hell, I assume because of the tourney. Longsword is really good for working the shoulders. The other two exercises went pretty well, though.

Just wanted to add that I'm glad to see at least a couple of other people giving this a try.

Keep up the good work. Stayed pumped. Get your swoll on. Grow into that beard and make Leonidas proud.

I've been slacking this week, I need to get back on it. My back has been giving me a little trouble, but I should at least be try to work around it.

Cranked out 40 p-ups this morning. No other workouts though. Starting to pay more attention to nutrition again.

At one time I had a doorway pull-up bar, but immediately retuned it for the reasons mentioned by Sir Eric.

Got all my sets again today. Chins are still most difficult, but I can tell that I'm getting stronger with the situps and pushups.

After I did my workout, I went to Backyard Burger and got supper =\

I'm on pushup hold for the second day, and likely for a couple more days. My computer work has caught up with me again (as it sometimes does), and I've got a wrist brace to wear (carpel tunnel inflamation). My left wrist is pretty much unusable for most tasks let alone p-ups. In a couple more days it should be fine, providing I keep this brace on.

redid both day 1 of push ups and sit ups , got both done but push ups got really hard toward the end.
