Today's Sally

[Mossdog]

EMOM x13 of: 15 secs isometric press-up holds, at the lower end of press-up position, before 'resting' returning to the top, arms locked, position for the remaining seconds of each minute.

13 sets all completed, albeit I aimed for 15 of 15!

[Mossdog]

Chest to floor diamond press-ups, sets to imminent or actual failure, 2 minutes = set plus rest, 20 sets:
8 - 5 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 4 - 3 - 3 - 2 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 3 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 2. Total 63.

And .. and .. I started with a single one armed from the floor knee press-up.

Mein Gott! I hope you had 'Eye of the Tiger' playing. Impressive.

[Mike T]

Chin-ups, 10 sets to imminent or actual failure, 3 minutes = set + rest: 6 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 2 - 2. Total = 34.

EMOM press-ups routine. 10 reps (floor to lock to floor) press-ups, every minute, for 15 minutes.


45 - 46 - 46 - 45 - 46 - 46 - 46 - 43 - 43 - 43 - 43 - 43 - 43 - 40 - 38

Weighted - 5 kg - chest to floor diamond press-ups, 20 sets to imminent/actual failure, 1st 10 sets on toes, 2nd 10 on knees, 2 minutes = set + rest.

4 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 1 - 2

6 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4.

Today's attempt at a one armed from the floor press-up failed.

[Mike T]

30 sets, 2 minutes = set + rest. First 15 sets pull-ups, last 15 chin-ups, first 3 pull-up sets weighted - 5 kg; all the chin-ups weighted.

1 - 1 - 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1.

2 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1.

So 36 efforts in total.

Umm...I guess generally plateauing is better than regressing

Well done Mike. I've had a few pressing (no pun intended!) priorities recently, so have had squeeze in core sessions as best as I can.

3 - 2 - 2 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2

Today's attempt at a one armed from the floor press-up: one and 2 halves. The first effort was a half - I had not given myself enough room and my head ended up rubbing against the end of my bed. Second one was successful, third one only got half way up.
