25 years old male.
Started smoking at age of 14, so I was always week and skinny, but I have decided to change.
January 4th 2012 I quited smoking, recently I started simplefit program and I like it.
Exercises keeps me away from cigarettes, and I want to keep it that way
Mine main goal is to "repair" lungs, so in mine rest days I do stair climbing.
Short term goals : 30 push-ups in a row. Last time I tried I did 20


Week 1
L1D1 = 26
L1D2 = 3:34 [00:48, 00:44, 00:43, 00:41, 00:42]
L1D3 = 3:52 + 4:15 ~ It was too easy, so I did it twice

Week 2
L2D1 = 21 + 15
L2D2 = 4:41 [00:54, 00:57, 00:56, 00:58, 00:56] L2D2 = 4:42 [00:50, 00:54, 00:54, 01:04, 01:00]
L2D3 = 4:45

Week 3
L3D1 = 16+16
L3D2 = 4:47 [00:54, 00:58, 01:00, 00:58, 00:57] L3D2 4:24 [00:52, 00:53, 00:54, 00:52, 00:53]
L3D3 = 5:28

Week 4
L3D1 = 23
L3D2 = 3:58 [00:48, 00:49, 00:49, 00:48, 00:44]
L3D3 = 5:02

Week 5
L3D1 = 24
L3D2 = 3:31 [00:43, 00:41, 00:44, 00:42, 00:41]

Stairs climbing 750 steps up and down
Aug 02 = 14:18
Aug 07 = 13:02
Aug 09 = 13:45

L1D2 was to easy, I don't find it challenging.

That means you'll likely move up a level pretty soon. I also find D2 the easiest. My routine now is whenever I get the D2 rounds below 1 minute, I shorten the breaks between rounds. I also put a strong emphasis on working on form on D2

I will try the same thanks for tip

Just did L1D3 in 3:52

Did L2D1 twice today.
Of course I had 12 hours break between those.
20mins = 21
20mins = 15

This was hard...

Doubling D1 was a great idea, L2D2 was much harder than L1D2
Here are the times

L2D2 = 4:41
00:54
00:57
00:56
00:58
00:56

Pullu-ps are still too hard for me...so I mix them with chin-ups

Took 8 hours break and repeated L2D2, I was only 1 sec slower
L2D2 = 4:42
00:50
00:54
00:54
01:04
01:00


And I had a nice walk-run....over 13 kilometers. This was insane!! I will remember this day for sure, it took me over 3 hours....
I couldn't breath ( quited smoking 6 months ago ) and I even throw up @ half way 6Km was easy, but return was a nightmare

That's really flying on D2. Great job!

Thanks
L2D3 = 4:45 so close...

Nice!
