I'm back with a workout update.

Been a while. Way too long.

I'm going through the hundred push-up challenge again. But because I'm trying to lose weight and fat, I'm using the same numbers for all big 4 movements. Push, Pull, Squat, Hip Hinge. In the past, I was in good enough shape that I could do use column 3, starting week 3 for the first week. More than 25 pushups weren't a problem.

But it's been a while since I worked out consistently and steadily. Last few months, during quarantine, I'd work out a little and then do something else, no real plan. I don't know why I grabbed the Hundred Pushup challenge again.

This time around, I hit enough to do week 1 in column 3, but at the start of this week's round, I was feeling a little worn out.  May have been the less than 4 hours of sleep that day. I was also worried about volume after not working out in so long. So I started in column 2.

Week 1, Day 1:

Push-up Squat Inverted Row on TRX Two-hand 24kg Kettlebell swing
6 6 6 6
6 6 6 6
4 4 4 4
4 4 4 4
7 10 8 10
Totals: 27, 30, 28, 30
Problems: squat round 4, timer problem, extra rest. I-row feet round 2 slid across the floor, changing the angle to harder. Swing round 1, left hand slipped off kettlebell.

Week 1, Day 2:
Push-up Squat I-Row on TRX Two-hand 24kg KB swing
6 6 6 6
8 8 8 8
6 6 6 6

Week 1, Day 3:
Push-up Squat I-Row on TRX Two-hand 24kg KB swing
8 8 8 8

Now to rest until Tuesday and start week 2.
