Today, I tried my hand at max pushups without stopping. That means not pausing in between each rep and not going to the knees. I've been stuck at around 42 (my previous PR) for a few months. Today, I knocked out 52, a gain of 25%.
ReplyDeleteAfter that, I did 3x3 back squats and added 10 pounds to my previous PR. I usually add somewhere between 2 - 5 pounds per week. Adding 10 is huge.
I'm not sure if it's the Paleo, high dosage fish oil, or the fact that I'm coming off a rest cycle, but I'm doing something right.
Hope everyone else is seeing similar benefits!
Ate alot today (as usual), but I kept everything within the paleo guidelines...
