100 pushups
100 situps
100 squats
10k Run

I think I'm going to challenge myself to do it 100 days in a row.

If it's raining outside, I'll do it inside. My goal it's to do it everyday at 7am ish.

I have high confidence in the pushups and squats. I have medium confidence in the running. Running is boring to me, but I'm good at it. I think if I push myself to set a record pace or beat my own best times I might be fine. I can keep my heart rate at above 150bpm for over an hour consecutively easily. And fukk it on days when I'm just not in sync I can jog it. But I will never walk it and I will never quit. Situps I have medium to low confidence, I used to be good at them but I haven't done them for years. I do other core workouts. If I start doing them now 100 should be easy.

It should take me 2-3 minutes to do 100 squats. I can do 100 straight but I can pace myself.

It should take me 3-5 minutes to do 100 pushups, if I pace myself. I don't do explosive pushups but full range of motion and controlled pushups.

I don't know how long it should or would take me to do 100 situps.

I can run 3 miles in less than 21:00 minutes. I doubt I can keep that pace. But I can't imagine it taking me more than 1 hour to run 10k. The pushups squats and situps will be a sufficient warm up, rather than tiring me out.

I'm going to do some individual training starting this week, in addition to my other workouts. Individual training is going to consist of situps and running.

Probably starting the day after tomorrow if not Saturday/Sunday/Monday.

Tomorrow May 1st 2019. Im going on a bike ride at 06:30/07:00. Depending on how I feel when I get out there and get riding, I may ride a century (100 miles)..if I complete that, or even a significant amount of miles my body will need 48-72 hours recovery.

If all goes well and I start the 100 days challenge I will upload a day 1, day 25 day 75, and 100 day picture.

I don't know what to expect as far as results. I expect to be tired. I expect to have to struggle some days getting it in. I expect to get proficient or even advanced on doing the squats, pushups, and situps. I expect to get better at running but I'm concerned that running will be boring and make me want to quit or skimp.

I'll probably film day 1, day 25, day 50 and day 100 to see how I've improved. If one day one it takes me 01:30 to do it and by day 100 I'm under 1 hour that'll be crazy. I have no idea what the times will be but it'll be cool to see what metrics I can obtain.

Hopefully some brehs (of brehettes) join in, at least for one day.

I want my feet held to the fire. If I fall off, I want in to where I log in that a nikka has mad alerts with negs :pacspit: and :camby:.

I track my workouts with either my watch or my phone so weekly I'll be able to post my results. I should probably give myself some leeway a way of redemption like 3 make up days or something, but I don't want to set myself up for failure.

We will see how it goes.

I did 100 sit ups. It wasn't difficult by any means. It was time consuming. I had to make sure to control my movement, make sure I wasn't swinging my neck or my shoulders and keeping my back and shoulder straight.

6+ miles EVERY single day?
:damn:
I like jogging, but :whoa: that seems kind of excessive to me unless it's part of training for a marathon or something.

I don't want to sound like I think I'm an expert, but I would say to take some days off and also do some of those runs in low heart rate zones. I ran a half marathon in January with an average heart rate in "zone 5", but I probably shouldn't have. It's better to learn how to get faster with a lower heart rate then stay stuck at 150 for the full hour every day.

I use a polar heart rate monitor and have for maybe over a decade. They have tests and programs for you. Ive used the shyt out of them. Not tryna think shyt is sweet and end up 50miles on the side of the bike trail with a heart attack or stroke.

Todays ride sucked. 10 miles south in broken up parts of the trail was flooded. Temp was 43 degrees or so. Wet shoes, wet socks. The water caused my sock to shrivel up and my shoe started rubbing at the front of my ankle with now has a cut. At 40 miles going north, the trail again was closed, assuming to flooding, I took my my ass home.

i felt great, except for cold wet feet and eventually my shoe cutting my ankle.

I've had a Polar heart rate strap since 2014 (on a Vantage V watch now), but this year is the first time I've been trying to actually look at my watch while running to monitor my heart rate. When I do an "easy" run now, I try to make sure my heart rate number doesn't go into the yellow.

You ever do HITT? Run light for a minute, then hard for a minute then light, etc? That burns more calories and is a better overall workout than staying stagnant at one heart rate which is topically what I do.

The pushups and squats were easy.

The sit ups were difficult but manageable.

The running sucked. First two miles were fine. At 3.5 miles I gave in. I don't know if it's because I'm running on a treadmill vs on the street where I can get a better stride or stride length.

Maybe it's because I haven't ran long distance in a long ass time but running on a treadmill doesn't seem natural. I feel like I cant bound from one foot to another because if my speed is too high then I end up sliding/flying backwards. If I lower the speed then I feel as if my knees don't get high enough and I feel like I'm fast jogging. Idk.

Tomorrow I'm gonna do it again. Still on the treadmill. I think Saturday or Sunday it'll be nice enough to run outside.

Definitely a mental aspect comes into play.
You start telling yourself excuses. :manny: it's just running, I figure if I keep up with it I'll either learn to like it or it'll become easier.

My heart rate was peaking at 184bpm.
