Today is day ten of the push-up regiment. That means it's the last day of Round 1. I still feel good about it although I have to admit, I'm a little bit stiff. After a two day break I'll see how many push-ups I can do consecutively. Before I started I could do about 45ish. I hope to double that on Tuesday.
I received two books that I ordered for this Building Batman project in the mail today.
Book 1: The Knot Book by Budworth and Compton. Batman knows knots. Trust me. Climbing up and down building... oh ya he knows knots. Tying up baddies for Gordon to pick up. Some fun with Catwoman. Mooring the Batboat.
Book 2: Visual Guide to Lock Picking by McCloud. That's right, not only am I learning from a friend but also on my own. It will probably take me quite some time to understand lock-picking well enough to explain anything but sooner or later we'll cover this stuff.
So here's the plan. Over the next few weeks I'll introduce you to a knot or so a day as I learn and practice them. As that happens I'll learn as much as I can about lock picking. Learning these couple of skills will be big step in becoming Batman.
Hm...If you were able to do 45 before, then you probably should have started at 200 or more. The first time doing it is always the hardest, so 200 may seem like a staggering number, but hard work is the only way to get results.
ReplyDeleteDoubling your 45 may be tough is you've been doing the "gentle 100". The first time I did it, I did either 250 or 300, and I only went from 40 to 60.
But I certainly wish you luck with that and all of the other endeavors making up this project!
