Dec 02, 2019 – Day 2 of 30-day 100 push-ups ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿคฏโ›”๏ธ

The second day came with more challenges, mentally! ๐Ÿคฏ The time I opened my eyes in the morning, I wanted to go back to bed again. It was cold ๐Ÿฅถ and cozy in the morning, and thought of myself as a fool to give it up and do some 100 push-ups. But, in that very moment, I convinced myself to get out off the bed and just start with the first 10 push-ups, similar strategy I used for Day 1, and surprisingly, it worked this time too. I think, waking up from a sound sleep and getting off my bed was the hardest thing I did that day.

I was so motivated to do push-ups that I forgot to turn my camera on and started doing push-ups. I was after the 100th push-up that I realized my mistake. Nevertheless, it was a good effort from a personal stand-point.

I think, for Day 2, I was more focused on increasing the number of maximum repetitions, so I was not paying more attention to the time, hence, resulting in taking more time. Also, one thing that I noticed, I did not have a good rhythm or technique for my push-ups, so that also added up some extra time. I am not complaining, but I could have done better. Anyway, I am happy that I could increase the max rep by 5.

A few things I noticed during 100 push-ups going in Day 2 –

  1. I did not have a proper technique to focus more on my core, abs, biceps. ๐Ÿ›‘
  2. I could have taken longer breaks between reps to come stronger and finish in lesser time. ๐Ÿ›‘
  3. I could have pushed myself and increase the max reps by at least 1 or 2. ๐Ÿ›‘
  4. Positive – increasing max rep by 5. โœ…
  5. Improvement – proper technique and more focus on result-oriented efforts. ๐Ÿ›‘

Unfortunately, I could not capture the Time-Lapse of the second day 100 push-ups. So, hereโ€™s the video from Day 1 again! Sorry to bore you! ๐Ÿคฎ

As you can see, it took me a minute more to finish the 100 push-ups, however, increasing the maximum number of reps by 5 (I think it is huge deal for the second day). More to come on that!

Hope you find this effort useful.

Alavida!
