Heavy Bag and Pushups

Another busy day today and all I found time for was about 1/2 hour on the heavy bag and some pushups. For the pushups I tried to get a little ahead on my yearly goal of doing double my age in reps during the year between my birthdays. I attempted to do 104 pushups today a month ahead of schedule (I turn 52 on 8/25) but only made it to 102 before hitting complete failure and arm collapse. Even though I might not have gotten ahead on my 52 yr old goal, I did prove to myself again that I could hit my 51 yr old goal.

About Your Trainer

Hi! I'm Patrick Frey, your in-home, online and on-the-trail Personal Trainer, Fitness Educator, and Strength & Conditioning Specialist. With over 35 years of fitness experience, and certifications from the National Strength and Conditioning Association, the International Sports Sciences Association, and the American Council on Exercise, I have the knowledge and experience you need to reach your health and fitness goals. My interests over the years have included running, bicycling, cross-country skiing, hiking, backpacking, bodybuilding, powerlifting, olympic lifting, volleyball, and general health, fitness and nutrition. I've trained hundreds of people of all ages and abilities from elite athletes to sedentary couch potatoes, in everything from well equipped gyms to un-equipped homes, online, in the park and on the trails. To me, there's nothing more exciting than helping people improve their health, look better, feel better, or improve their sports performance.
