Day 15 - Chest and Back + Ab Ripper X

We had a late start on our work out, but we still brought it. I was extremely proud of myself after this work out. I made greater than 100% gains on many of my reps from the prior week AND I stepped up my resistance band to the green one. So not only was I able to do more pushups on all the various exercises I was pushing myself harder on the bands too! I think I was inspired by my day 15 pictures - taken prior to the work out - to really blow it out. Jay and I would push ourselves to failure on the pushups and then drop our knees to the floor and knock out a few more modified pushups to get that last little bit out of our muscles.
Here are some pictures of Jay and I doing some diamond push ups...as best we can...

Me getting ready to start...

Another good reason to take pictures during your work out - bad form!

No pain yet...just some good breathing!

just a few more...

That's working hard...

And finally...a smile
