Okay, I hope that you're supposed to wait two days after the initial 'test' before day one - 'cause I did my test yesterday, and I couldn't get through the first day program.
Day .5 -- 7/3 ...  |

Week 1, day 3: 15/13/10/10/15
No sore muscles after day 2, but again, I found the last pushup of the last set very difficult. Which is the way it's supposed to be, I guess...

I did a trial run on Saturday and did it successfully
Planning on repeating it tomorrow, and starting the programme properly.  Ah, yes! Thank you. It's good. Keep warm. |

Day 2: 12/12/10/10/16. Grrrr!
The thoughts of other posters collapsing in exhausted anguish and duncan with a bow in his hair were all that sustained me through that. |

Stretching a bit afterwards. should help with the pain, windmilling your arms backwards and so on.

Yay Unc Mork!
The stretching actually worked really well, my muscles hurt a lot less today. I had my suspicions that all that was sustaining Fatoigeon through this was the thought of other posters standing around doing crazy backwards-windmill arm motions, but how wrong I was. He would never make fun of us. Fion, there should be a column to the left of the 40-55 one for <40's on the initial page. And you do not suck one bit, since you be tryin' it at all.

I did mine.
I won't admit to how very few pushups I am able to do. My muscles are not developed in that way. ******************************** The only really sane person in there is Igor, and possibly the turnip. And I'm not so sure about the turnip. ~~ Terry Pratchett |

I did my initial test (I'm substituting sit-ups for push-ups, as my abs need a whole lot more work than my arms
) and I'll be starting the program on Wednesday.~ Non-Mod-Amy, aka Amy of the Lost Ark You are a Bookholder. To prompt, or...LINE! (not to prompt) --not to prompt. That is the question. Whether t'is nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of a bad memory, or to take arms against a sea of textual deviations, and...LINE! (by opposing) --by opposing them...LINE! (end) --end...LINE! (them) --end them...LINE! (to prompt, to correct; no more; and by a correction to say we end the heart-ache of a really terrible performance) You didn't have to give me the whole thing! I know it! |

One question about pushups...how far apart should your hands be?
Cos once I did them parallel with me shoulders and it was quite gruelling (as I imagine it should be) and another I moved them just slightly further apart, and it was a lot easier...but at the same time I know putting them too close isn't advisable. Ah, yes! Thank you. It's good. Keep warm. |

Do what's comfortable - you can fine tune, if necessary, down the road. This will be my 2nd attempt at Day 1 - wish me luck!
I so have no core ... |
