Day 54 – Core Synergistic

Wow, first off, today was really hot, I am Puerto Rican so the heat does not bother me much, but working out under the heat for an hour is a different story and there is no A/C here. It was very hard for me to try and surpass what I had done last time, but I did my best to not do less.

Lets see…

Reading this chart:

  • Last column is how many more reps or seconds I did since the last time.
    • Green = More
    • Red = Less
  • R = Reps
  • S = Seconds
  • N = No Knee
  • K = Knee
  • P = Plank
  • C = Chaturanga
  • W = Weight
  • M = Medium Resistance Band
  • H = Heavy Resistance Band

OK so some of the exercises do not ask for more than what was done, but some do ask for maximum reps. The stack foot/stagger pushups I tried to push the extra 2 to make it to 40 but I couldn’t get up LOL.

The Sphinx push ups I managed another 2 reps without the knees, that was awesome.

The prison cell push ups, I tried to do 1 more set, now keep in mind that 1 set is basically 3 push ups in order to complete one set, and I got stuck half way, so I did not count it.

Side hip raise, now this made me happy, again I was able to do this without touching the floor, and I managed to push an extra 2 per side YEAH! BRING IT!

Plank to Chaturanga run, I tried to go back down to chaturanga for a second time but I went to the floor instead so I got back up and stayed running in plank.

Lunge-Kickback-Curl-Press, again I used 20lbs for half of it, I tried to use it for another 2 but I could not do it, so I put the weights down and kept going.

Dreya Roll, I am getting up faster now, but at the same token I could not do another.

Plank To Chaturanga Iso, again I was able to go down to chaturanga twice for 10sec each and I tried for a 3rd time and I hit the floor instead, so I got back up and did what I could.

Last but not least, Table Dip Leg Raise, I felt that even though I did well under the heat circumstances, but I wanted to do better so I decided to make sure I at least got an extra full 5 reps on this one and I did.

Tomorrow I have Yoga X, Then one more day and Phase II will be over, WOW what a ride so far this has been.

Thank you for your time:

Mike
