Hundred Push Ups: Week 4 Day 2
After yesterday’s Muddy Buddy adventure my arms are a little fatigued, but I’m keen not to lose any more ground on the Hundred Push Ups program, so here goes with Week 4 Day 2: Required: 27, 21, 21, 18, at least 25 Didn’t look too bad on paper, and once I got going it turned [...]
