For a month.

I have an inkling that cheese is actually one of the most addictive substances on Earth. If not, it’s certainly the most widespread addiction. Not without reason, either. It’s a source of calcium and protein, it fills you up and it tastes really really good. Also, it’s amazing. And varied.

On the downside, cheese is really fatty and is (according to some sources) possibly to blame for my slimy throat. So starting this thursday, I’m not having a bite of cheese for a whole month. It’s going to be tough, and I’m a bit freaked out by the idea of cheeseless pizza, but it’ll also be interesting. I might get the Uncheese Cookbook and try some stuff, too. Who knows?

I’ll make a video to announce it on Youtube as well. Watch out for that.

I did NOT cheat! You try “resting” with your arms and legs like that! Okay, so maybe it’s a TINY bit cheaty. Shush.

These past two weeks have been tough on me as far as the whole pushup thing goes, but I’m sticking to it thanks to you folks, especially the ones who are doing the programme with me. Remember to hydrate well before and during your workouts and to neither eat right before you do it nor do it when you haven’t eaten in a long time.

If you have joined me, keep it up! Let me know how you’re doing!

So, it’s been two weeks, and as you will see from the video, I managed 30 push-ups today. I’m quite happy to have gone up nine push-ups in two weeks, and I’m looking forward to the end of week 4, when I will be doing another test and hopefully scoring a 50.

Well, according to the 100 Push-ups site, I should be able to take 100 push-ups in one go after completing their six-week program. It sounds pretty crazy to me that such a progress can be made so quickly, but I’m at a point right now where I can’t find the time to go to the gym, so why not give it a go?

I completed the first week’s program just minutes ago, and I’m feeling SOME kind of progress, at the very least. At the end of the second week, I’ll be doing another test to see how many I can do before I have to stop. We’ll see then whether this has any merit or not.

If you’re up for it, why not join me? You’ll be a week behind, but it may be worth it! JOOOOIN MEEE!
