Week 5c, Day 2

Pushed straight through sets 1 to 7. The last few in each set started to hurt about 2 or 3 from the end - not so much that I had to stop.

Set 8 was a different story. I made it to 17 before I had to take a quick break to stop myself from breaking my own nose. After that, I kept on to 40 in gradually decreasing groups. 17, 25, 31, 34, 37, 40.

Then I got to thinking. On Saturday, my exhaustion test without having done 120 push-ups first was 47. It doesn't make sense to do 120 in 7 sets, then still manage 40 in a row. What does seem to make sense is that I'll keep redoing Week 5 until I can get through it. If that's what it takes, then that's what it takes.

Keep on pushin'!
