Pretty good improvements for just 2 weeks, especially for the chest and arms. 2" gain in chest and .25" in biceps and forearms!
I'm pretty sure on my original measurements I swapped waist and hips . . . so I remedied that on these measurements.

Yoga X
So I missed my Yoga workout on Thursday - legs were tired from playing basketball and volleyball with the missionaries earlier in the day and then just before I was going to do the routine Thursday night Presto called and wanted to play volleyball. And I can't pass up volleyball. It ended up being pretty good volleyball, too.
Anyway, so I shifted my days and did Yoga this morning. Just as a brutal as last week :-). And I will do Legs & Back tomorrow. If I'm up for it I'm going to try to do Kenpo tomorrow, also in the PM. I don't want to miss two weeks in a row of that.
Yoga feels really good at the end, but it SUCKS while doing it.

Tuesday Plyometric Routine September 2nd, 2008
Did my Plyo routine today as referenced on the August 26th post. I also played 2 hours of basketball in the PM . . . legs were dead and I sucked it up pretty bad. Tweaked the ankle a bit, too. Awesome :-) BUT - the workout didn't hurt nearly as bad as last week, so that's really good news.

Monday Chest & Back September 1st, 2008
So I did my Monday routine (chest & back) today. Definitely improved over last weeks numbers, but I was so spent at the end that I was unable to do my ab routine. Probably not enough food in me. Anyway here are my numbers for today:
Standard Push Ups - 22 reps
Wide Pull Ups - 11 reps
Military Push Ups- 18 reps
Reverse Grip Pull Ups - 11 reps
Break - 45 sec
Wide Push Ups - 20 reps
Overhand Close Grip Pull Ups - 10 reps
Decline Push Ups- 12 reps
Heavy Pants - 15 reps @ 35lb dumbbells
Break - 45 sec
Diamond Push Ups - 12 reps
Lawnmowers - 20 reps @ 35lb each side
Divebomber Push Ups - 12 reps
Back Flys - 12 reps @ 25lb dumbbells
Break - 45 sec
Wide Pull Ups - 5 reps
Standard Push Ups - 20 reps
Reverse Grip Pull Ups - 6 reps
Military Push Ups - 18 reps on my knees
Break - 45 sec
Overhand Close Grip Pulls - 7 reps
Wide Push Ups - 20
Heavy Pants - 15 reps@ 35lb dumbbells
Decline Push Ups - 12
Break - 45 sec
Lawnmowers - 20 reps @ 35lb dumbbells
Diamond Push Ups - 12 reps on my knees
Back Flys - 14 reps @ 25lb dumbbells
Divebomber Push Ups - 12 reps
So I need heavier weights for my Lawnmowers and Heavy Pants, but that'll be awhile because I can't afford to buy them right now. haha. But my pull ups all improved quite a bit in just the one week, but some of my push ups actually dropped. We'll see how next week goes.
I did not do the Kenpo routine on Saturday :-( Lame
