Pressing engagement

247/365 push-ups

With a bike ride planned for tomorrow I thought I'd do the gym today. A shame really, as it would have been a lovely day for a run!

I just did the usual circuit: squats and lunges, biceps and triceps, lats and side lifts. I slotted the planks and press-ups in early, and managed to increase both of those - planks to 2 x 35s (and an attempt at a third which made it to 15s), and (knee) press-ups to 3 x 11, which was pretty much to failure on the last one, so I'll stay at that for a couple of weeks. I also tried upping the weight on the triceps pulldown, but it steps up by 5kg, and the difference between 10kg and 15kg is a huge jump. I can do 12 x 10kg but only 4 x 15kg. Something to work on.
