All right, I was able to finish my routine for Week 1. Here’s the breakdown of my routine for this week:
I have 3 sets of exercises A, B and then the 100-count exercises.

INTERVAL WORKOUT A
Warm up for 3 minutes, getting progressively more intense with time.
Perform an interval by exercising for 30 seconds at a very hard pace (at a subjective 8/10 level of effort).
That was the Workout set that I did this Monday. It kicked my ass but it felt good…

I was only able to complete some of the sets here due to muscle failure; I did what I could and was getting ready for the 100-count exercises that I did this Saturday morning.
Saturday, March 1st:
Bodyweight 100:
- 20 Prisoner Squats
- 20 Pushups
- 20 Jumps
- 5 Chinups
- 20 Forward Lunges
- 15 Close-Grip Pushups
I was able to complete the Squats, Jumps Lunges. I did 12 reps of pushups in a proper form and 10 reps of Close Grip Pushups. I only manage to eke out 1 rep of chinups, unfortunately.
Of course, all of these routine will be for nothing if I didn’t watch what I eat… I’ve been maintaining a stricter but healthy eating habits…
Already lost 10 lbs, I need to lose 15 lbs more!
