Week 2

Well, seeing as how last week went, I wanted to try and get different exercise routines in to build different body parts. One exercise in particular I will add to my routine is the use of grippers to increase my forearms. These are cool because they can be done easily while watching tv or even reading a book.

Noticing less soreness in the body after each exercise from last week.

The first day I wanted to see how many I could do for each exercise.
Results:
Grippers: 26
Pushups: 45 (+2 from week 1)
Pullups: 15 (No change)
Crunches: 122 (+2 from week 1)

This is the routine for 3 days of the week
Grippers: 15x for 3 sets
Pushups: 35, 25, 15
Pullups: 10, 5, 5
Crunches: 75, 55, 45

Last day: Tried max again! Overall felt kind of tired today. Results reflect that.
Results:
Grippers: 24
Pushups: 41 
Pullups: 15 
Crunches: 120

Next week: I might try some leg exercises or some back exercises. Hopefully I can add raise the max next week for pullups and pushups. For pullups 16 reps will suffice. For pushups I will be aiming for 47.
