Jen has come down with a horrible fever and has been out of it all day. I wasn’t about to push her to working out in this condition so I’ve started the challenge on my own. Tonight was pretty easy. The reps were small and mainly I wanted to get used to the movements. I think it went fairly well.
Tonight’s workout:
Push-ups: 2, 3, 2, 2, max (I did 6)
Sit-ups: 3, 4, 3, 3, max (I did 20)
Squats: 3, 4, 3, 3, max (I did 13)
Lessons learned:
1) I need some push-up bars. My wrists are weak and I need to get some bars to alleviate pressure on the wrists.
2) While I have to watch sit-ups because of my back, this is my strong area.
3) Squats sure make my joints creak. I felt like an old rotting boat.
4) Do not attempt exercise in the same room as a neurotic dog!

Nice job on the workout! I hope Jen feels better soon.
love #4!
i can't do any floor exercise with my dogs in the room. they think it's playtime and they are too big to play with like that!
I have scoliosis too. I roll kinda to one side when I do my crunches, and sometimes I'll get a twinge but for the most part it doesn't bother me when I'm doing ab work. Of course, it all depends on where your curve is. Great job on day 1!
