The Scholars of Shen Zhou

A few weeks after my previous post I beat my best in reps for pushups by accomplishing 88 and then 91. But today... I'm feeling stoked because I managed to push it to 100 . :D :D :D Other than that, everything else is about the same - though I am getting better at maximizing on leg day. I had a few ...

Love cashew butter. But I also love cashews in general.

I second that, sheer awesomeness. I make Cashew Banana Smoothies almost everyday for my after workout protein-carb replenisher.

We have a pure breed fawn American Boxer named Chesed. She'll be 3 years old this December. My daughter has a maltese-shih tzu mixed breed named Simchah.

I actually never had cashew or almond butter. Are they PB-like or have a taste of their own? I make my own cashew butter since I can get twice as much for the same price.

Interestingly enough I find grindfest in games very enjoyable now that I can barely afford to play more than an hour non-stop.

Horseradish - ...

I wonder if there is any connection between your return and the sun shining in England.

This has to be the best welcome back post I've ever read. You rock!

I believe I finally got my mojo back (in my best Austin Powers impersonation)... This morning I put in a set of 73 reps for pushups. I did myself two better about 15 minutes ago by doing a set of 80 reps, and then followed it up with a set of 82 reps. I was three away from my best. Feeling really go...

I suppose my recent absence warrants me to announce, "I'm back"

Update: After Jan 1st I actually tested my pushup limit and found that I can max out at 55 pushups. I also learned that I can do 45-55 pushup sets consecutively and consistently without much rest. So I believe I'm not far off of my pace. I just need to raise it 15 pushups through a little more work...
