Squats, Pushups

Push-up Exhaustion Test
Incline 6

I was really hoping for 75 today and then possibly reaching my goal of 100 next Thursday.

I suppose I need a new goal now, because I hit 104! Boo-yah.

Squats
60 second rest
Round 1: 27
Round 2: 34
Round 3: 21
Round 4: 21
Round 5: 56 (max 34+)

Total: 159

Pregnancy Status: 28 weeks, 0 days

Squats Training

My push-up training has taken longer than I expected because I lowered my incline. I decided against pull-up training for a variety of reasons, including the fact that I have so much extra weight on me and it's not necessarily the best use of my time.

I started squat training today so I can reach 200 squats. I really need/want strong legs when this baby comes, so this should help me accomplish that.

Initial Test: 61

OH Squats, SL Deadlift, Incline Press, Push-Ups

3 rounds, 12 reps
OH Squats 37.5#
Straight Leg Deadlifts 65#
Incline Press 45#

Push-ups Training, incline 6
Max: 71
Time: 3min 14 seconds

I wanted to hit 100 today, but I'm just not ready. Hopefully next Saturday.

My hamstrings felt the SL deadlifts immediately. Looks like I need to be doing more of those.

The OH Squats were not too bad. They are getting more difficult since I can't go down quite as far anymore, but the weight was good. I will be at 45 pounds next time around.
