So pushups I still seem to be struggling with a bit. Today I supersetted them with my first three sets of pullups. They felt good but I couldn't get too deep into the last set.
Pullups, I did 9 sets of 4 - 3 sets of overhand, underhand and neutral grip.
Hanging knee raises I did the 3 sets of 15, forgetting that the sets should go up to 20. I'll work on getting up to 20 next time. That's what I get for not writing it all down before I went to the gym.
Pike pushups were fine - next time I will elevate my feet for the pike pushups and see how far I can get. I also think I'll throw in one or two sets of headstands to start getting used to being upside down and engaging my core. I always found that when doing handstands I seem to really arch my back, which has hurt me in the past. I think I need to work on keeping my body in a straight line when inverted before I try going to handstand pushups.
Dips were fine - missed the first set, not sure why, but was able to get the next two out.
Weekend off, more on Monday.
