Back on Track--For Now

This morning I ran with Lindsay and Yvonne.  We only went 2.4 miles, but I was satisfied.  It was hot outside and today was supposed to be a strength day anyhow.

Speaking of which, I did a strength workout.  It was 15 minutes of Escalating Density Training (EDT), alternating between Standard Width Pushups and Standard Width Pullups.

Standard Width Pushups:  84 reps
Standard Width Pullups:   42 reps

I believe both of these numbers are less than previous attempts, but I feel fine with it as long as I can get into a routine.  After all, my goals right now are to establish a regular exercise routine and maintain a diet that excludes  all grains.

Vacation Disruption

This workout actually took place May 17th, 2012, prior to leaving for California for Mekrae's graduation.  I just returned home yesterday.  As you can imagine, my diet has taken a beating over the last week and a half.  Although I did run with Lindsay 3 times while on vacation, the runs were shorter overall.

I would like to bring my diet back under control and try to get into a regular workout routine.

Anyhow, the workout was as follows:

Wall Handstands  (2 x 25s)
Tuck L-Sit on Parallel Bars  (3 x 17s/15s/12s)
Bar Pullups  (3 x 8/4/7)
Ring Pushups  (3 x 10/10/7)
Parallel Bar Dips  (3 x 6/6/4)
