Khute's Workout Log

[Khute]

Stumbled across this site quite awhile ago, but just decided to give it a go this week. I have never had much upper body strength but have recently started doing push-ups to increase it. I have had some success, but lack consistency, likely due to the lack of a plan. This site has now provided the plan, so we will see how it goes. I will also be swimming and cycling as cardio to suppliment. I plan to try real pull-ups unless it becomes clear that isn't going to work. I can do a couple now with great difficulty, so I am guessing that will be my challenge. Gonna start from level 1 and go from there.

Waist: Smaller
Hips: Smaller
Bicep: Bigger
Diet: Less crap

Week 1 (July 1 - July 8 )

L1D3: 3:98

That's a great start on level 1, especially with the pull-ups. It looks like you should be able to make pretty quick work of level 1. Welcome onboard!

I agree with KTG. Great start. Have fun with the program.

Thanks for the comments.
I had finished week 1 day 3 in a pretty decent time, but I think (know) I cheated on the pull-ups, I also went on vacation, and while I planned to keep it up, it did not work out (neither did the not eating crap thing). So I will be doing week one again.
