There Will Be Sweat

Probably some blood too. No tears though. Never tears.

Density Training: Pullups + Pushups

Using the principles of density training to increase my pullup AND pushup numbers (goal is still 50, though it’s a long ways away). Starting each set at 1 minute intervals:

  • 12 x 8 reps
  • 1 x 4 (to make it an even 100)

100 pullups + 100 pushups total in just over 12 minutes. I did the pushups immediately after the pullups, so I had to finish 8 reps of each in each minute. Didn’t get all the pullup sets unbroken this time. The pushups definitely added to the overall fatigue, but made it a bit more interesting. I think I’ll up the reps to 9 next time, which means only 11 sets!
