Take the "Triple Challenge" (100 pushups, 200 situps, 200 squats) (read all 2 entries…)
Really tired, I know I could do better 2 weeks ago

Initial test results. I didn’t push myself to the limit on any of them.

Squats – 84
Push Up – 28
Situps – 17

I know I’ve done as many as 43 push up in a row recently, but I wasn’t going all the way to the floor. Situps were last so I was pretty tuckered out and lacking ANY push motivation, soon as the going got tough I quit. Whereas on the squats, which i did first, it started feeling tough at about 40 and I still pushed out another 44. Bottom line I think I’ll be crossing this one off as done in 6 weeks or less. I’m going to skip the week 1 workout and start on week 2 column 3 on Saturday. The situps will be the challenging part. GO TEAM!



Get the hang of styling my daughter's hair
At the school 2 weeks ago

In the mornings when I walk the boys to school I see all these little princesses with braids, ponytails and things I don’t even know the name of. Me, I go for a hair cut err. shave every 2 weeks. A #1 all over, so hair styling is something I just don’t do.

My little princess will be going to preschool next year and since her momma leaves the house before 7 am it falls to me to get the kids out the door. I do it, it is a bit crazy some days, but I do it. I am scared at the thought of incorporating a fancy girl hairdo into the routine but it is coming. So I am practicing.

I just put three braids in her hair it took me 40 minutes and they look like, well, crap. So for my baby’s social cred I need to get really good at this, and I will, I have to.

Plan to do my initial test sometime today. 2 weeks ago

Hopefully I can get my toddler to nap and do it then. I have been exercising at night when there is time. I am tired and weak then, not a great time for exercise and then sleep is delayed, and I am tired the next day. Working on 5 hours sleep today. All 3 kids are home tomorrow so that won’t work. Today is not ideal but it is just an initial test and I am anxious to start. I have read all the form advise on the website and plan to stick to that form for this challenge. Wish me luck.

I have to wonder if I am the only person of the masculine gender to embrace this goal?
