Good New, Bad News

Knife draw x 55, Grand Total: 500
Situps

Turns out I was thinking in parallel lines with remad. While he was commenting on my last post about the two hundred situps, I was also reading about it. It's by the same people that run the hundred pushups website. And since I need activity every day, not just 3 days per week, I think I'll do the pushups and situps on alternating days. He also dropped a link to twenty pullups, which is quite interesting to me, since I've never been good at pullups. I'll have to see if I can use my Director's pull up bar at work, though, as I don't have anything suitable at home to do them on (although I suppose I could go do pullups on the beams in my garage, but I'd rather not).

So today was initial testing day for the two hundred situps saga. I'm sore enough from my weak sauce attempt at pushups yesterday, but that's no reason not to do situps. The good news is that I'm in the highest starting bracket for week 1. The bad news is the actual number, which is so embarrasing I think I will actually keep it to myself. Ow, my ego.

As far as the knife stuff, I did the first 10 slow and smooth, working on using my left hand to pull my t-shirt out of the way. Then I did 20 with my hands in a fence position. The last 25 were done in a Kali Fence, while standing in a false lead. If none of that makes sense to you, feel free to ask in the comments (or IM me) and I'll 'splain it.
