90 Day Program diary from a man out of shape.
Week 3 day 1
Not the same 90 day program as everybody else but I’m still hanging in there. Just finished day one.
To be honest, didn’t wanna get up this morning. Today was a day off from work. Still pulling myself out of bed and finish the workout.
The push-ups are getting a little bit better.Still wish I had. But doing what I can.

Week 2 day 5
Where do I begin. I started the first cycle of the ladder with a half a pound. By the end, I was already dead. Decided to do the next two cycles with a quarter pound made. It had the brain idea to do the last cycle with half pound again Ended up skipping (pun intended)a lot of seconds.
This one was a killer, but survived to jump another day.
Today is my cheat day also. Going to have an original Margarita Napoleon pizza for lunch and tonight going to the movies and indulge myself to some popcorn. Please don’t judge I need it.😇
Tomorrow rest day. Maybe just do a small three minute workout to practice my sideswipes and my boxer skips. And then Monday we do it all again.
PS. Forgot to say. By the last cycle, the flat of my feet could barely jump🤕. Ended up using my knees a lot. So now my knees are killing me.

Week 2 day 4
Went pretty well finished the whole day. For me it’s the push-ups that are the hardest first set. I did 10 push-ups regular and 10 on knees. After that was seven regular and then all knees.
Getting there.
Don’t have a pull-up bar so doing what I can.
Until Tomorrow,

Week 2 day 3
On a positive side. Four cycles of ladder, jumping. At the beginning it was hell kept tripping on my rope. Then I figured it out. I was keeping my wrists too tight. Once I started flipping them around a bit more thing went “better”.
Negative: At the end of the third cycle Dan said that even for him who’s been doing this for years it never gets easier.! Wanted to kill him right there and then. 😱Decided to finish the last cycle instead.
Until tomorrow

Week 2 day 2
Today was the only jump 30-10 day.
I feel that if I don’t write this down, I might give up just out of frustration.
Don’t know why it feels like the rope keeps hitting the side of my feet. Will try to take a video tomorrow and upload it. Any advice you might have would be well helpful.
Don’t know about losing weight, but water seems to be seeping out of every poor.
30 min and I’m drenched.

Week 2 day 1.
Starting the week with a full body workout?! Great way to demoralize someone. Couldn’t even do six regular push-ups. and could barely do the rest on knees. The second set mostly knees and couldn’t do 20. The last push-ups couldn’t go to 16 ( 1 reg Push-up).
Halfway through was so tired couldn’t even jump rope properly. Started doubting my form which made me trip even more.
Tomorrow is the 30-10 day. Always taking too much time trying to change ropes (Another thing to look forward to).
Let’s see how that goes tomorrow.

Welcome to MY 90 day program😂Week 1 here we go.
Day, 1: finding out my max. Now there’s an embarrassing situation. Couldn’t even do one pull-up. So I changed the routine instead of pull-ups. I’m gonna do reverse push-ups using a paralette.
Day 2: started reevaluating my sanity. Didn’t know 10 seconds could last so long yet so short last 10 seconds of a workout never ended yet the 10 second break passed in the flash.
Day 3: the jump ladder was crazy wanted to quit so often but pulled through at the end of the day my left calf ached like crazy. Ended up taking a day off to recuperate.
Day 4: full body workout! Thought this was gonna give my legs a little bit of rest. He didn’t. The push-ups were killers. But at the end of it all it felt really good.
Day 5: I tried with the half pound rope for one cycle. I just had no more strength kept tripping on my rope. Switched to a quarter pound kept tripping again on the third cycle on the way back up. The ladder went back to half a pound just to finish with a bang. On the positive side, I’m starting to realize that my hand positioning is a bit too far off to the sides. Gives me something to think about for next weeks training

Quick Question.
I just saw the stay consistent video for the 90 day program.
I usually train (just started) in the morning. I don(t have a pull-up bar (Japanese houses are too short and fragile). There is one in a park close by, but I'm note sure if I can get to it regularly. Beside, I'm pretty sure my MAX is close to 1!
I train in my office, and what I have there are paraletts.
Any ideas what to do when A) max is maybe 1 and B) access to pull-up bar is limited.

So I’m trying to take it slow. A day off between short workouts. Maybe 15 minute workouts 30 seconds jump 30 seconds push-ups or something of the kind. But what I don’t understand is why the hell can’t I do boxer skips?
I keep trying, and I can do it without the rope, but whenever I add a rope, can’t do more than one jump. Very frustrating.
