Basic Training

Tony Horton of P90X Pooh-Poohs Pushups

"The days of push ups, sit ups and long runs in the military are over....I know inclusion of yoga in military training sounds a tad alien [but] yoga magnifies the positive effects of strength and cardiovascular exercises. It's lubricating all the major joints and reduces the potential for injury."

— Tony Horton, the creator of the P90X workout series, advising U.S. military leaders to adopt yoga as a major component of military fitness.

Whiskey pushup competition

So last night my gf and I played a somewhat sadistic game that involved doing pushups to failure or for time. Whoever did fewer/slower pushups had to take a shot of whiskey. Im not sure what prompted this, but we did a lot of pushups.

Noon Stretch

Trying to Catch Up on My Counts

"with today's little circuit, I'm up to the 50% mark now with pushups. that's terrifying. I'm way behind. even farther behind on squats, but those are manageable. still a ways to go on dips and pullups too. I CAN DO THIS! *fierce chest pound*"
