Ab Ripper X. Not done. Don't have much more time than an hour on those work days for workouts.

I slept so good today! A solid 5 1/2 hours!! Oh, yeah!! Bring it on!

Yeah, I know, it doesn't sound like much. But, I slept solidly throughout the whole thing ... I think I may not have moved the whole time, either (my back hurt when I woke up). In order to get an hour-long workout in, though, that's the kind of sleep I get. If I could get moving a little quicker once I was awake, or up, I'd have more time, but it really takes me a while to get moving ... and then I've got to shower & get ready for work, as well as fixing my food to eat before I leave & to take in with me.

Chest & Back:
Standard Push-Ups: 16 (8 reg., 8 knees); 6 (3 reg., 3 knees)
Wide Front Pull-Ups: 3 (3 sec. count); 4 (3 sec. count)
Military Push-Ups: 14 (7 reg., 7 knees); 8 (4 reg., 4 knees)
Reverse Grip Chin-Ups: 3 (3 sec. count); 3 (3 sec. count)
Wide Fly Push-Ups: 11 (5 reg., 6 knees); 10 (2 reg., 8 knees)
Closed Grip Overhand Pull-Ups: 4 (3 sec. count); 2 (3 sec. count)
Decline Push-Ups: 3 (no bars); 3 (no bars)
Heavy Pants: 15, 15#; 11, 15#
Diamond Push-Ups: 6 (not very low); 6 (knees ... much lower)
Lawnmowers: 15, 15#; 15, 15#
Dive-Bomber Push-Ups: 5; 5
Back Flys: 15, 10# & 7, 15#; 5, 15# (10# weights are too easy, 15 is very difficult to keep good form)

Again, another solid performance in the workout. I'm pretty sure I'm going to feel it like I'm feeling yesterday's workout now!!

Nutrition was mostly good. One of my coworkers brought cake in ... like my birthday cake at potluck (my childhood favorite), so of course, I had 1 piece. I was hot going into work, and had a cold coffee drink that I probably shouldn't have had, either. But, otherwise, it was a good day!

Goals:

1. Plyometrics.
2. Eat 5-6 small meals every day.
   
3. Drink 6 bottles of water.
4. Stop eating at least 2 hours before bedtime.
   
5. Take my vitamins.
