Day 8 and Day 9 - Consistency and repetition builds strength

 Day 8 - Sunday - Normally, I like to take a day of rest from exercising, work, etc. However, I am going a straight 40 Days for this program. No days off. Days off start after the 40 Day program if you want to continue along. Eight push ups done.

Day 9 - Monday - It's cold outside. At 5:22 AM is was 28 degrees outside my house. Stood there for 3 minutes outside for a little cold therapy before heading into the hot tub.

Nine push ups in the book with stretches. 

Picture is view of rings above Mt. Hood a couple of weeks ago in the sunrise.



I am hopeful to play golf in 11 days...almost 10 weeks after surgery.

Day 7 - One Week officially in the Books

Working on that daily habit to exercise again. 7 Push Ups completed. Starting to get that strength back. For those following, there will be a point that you need to break up the push ups into different sets. That is ok and makes sense. Here's my recommendation, whether you do the push ups from your knees or standard push ups, try to do the most amount of reps in a specific set right before you are unable to do anymore. Rest two minutes and then start your next set. Another option is to split the sets in different parts of the day. As you build strength, you will be able to do more reps in each set.
