Short Term Fitness Goals

Hey! What are your short term fitness goals?

Here's what I am out to accomplish in the next two-three weeks:

1. Be able to do a full standard push up - I am almost there and have been working on this for two months, getting lower and lower!

2. Shoulder press (standing) 70 lbs

3. 3000 meters on rowing machine w/no break

What about everyone else?

One of my goals this year is an unassisted pull up. I'm working toward it but not there yet. I think in the next month I should be able to deadlift over 200 pounds. I can already deadlift more than I weigh. 10 push ups with 25 pounds on my back is one of the next goals. But I'm almost 2 years out and in better shape now than I was in college.

Diana - that is just badass! An unassisted pull up seems almost impossible - I am not even working on it. But you have just created some #goals.

Getting back to working out period. I'm so anxious to start but I was told not until I hit 6 weeks post op. I'm supposed to not lift over 10lbs but that's just impossible. I want to get into a routine as soon as I can and stick with it.

I am right there with you! I wanna start spin class again and work on my planking. Maybe even get a portable TRX set up for our apartment.

They told me to hold my horses, I was only allowed to walk for a few more weeks...
