Conditioning status check:
I opted to do my bi-weekly check today instead of Saturday. I will be starting a new training routine Monday and want to give my body Two days to rest instead of One because I still tend to get a little sore after I push through my exercises. Anyhow here it is.
Flexibility:
PALMS TO FLOOR - finger tips 2 inches from floor now
SPLITS - a little better (not really sure how to measure this other than I know I can go a little further)
Conditioning:
JUMPING JACKS - still 1 min. (though I should start counting the actual jumping jacks per min. Next time.)
SIT-UPS - still 100 on flat surface (didn't want to try decline yet, last time I pushed to a 100 I was sore for too many days. figured I'd give it a couple more weeks then try for decline, I want to be able to do sit-ups Monday.)
PUSH-UPS - 12 (from knees)
SQUATS - 60 (full squat, no jump)
I am soooo STOKED! I love seeing progress. Especially with those damned push-ups. Arms/chest are the hardest for me out of everything. I would have been happy to go up from 5 to 6 push-ups, instead went up to 12!! :-)

I hate them because I have do them on my knuckles and as soon as I get good at that with just one arm.
