Simple work out to get on the board.  Starting the pushup and core workout from Kyle Collinsworth.  I seem to recall being able to do a lot more than I did this morning.  

Day 1 - Pushups without stopping from the knees: 1x19 (max), 3x10

Two rounds of timed reps for plank, pushup plank and side planks at 15 seconds.  Leg lifts: 2x15

25 minutes on my mini track in the backyard got me 3K steps.

No distance yet.  Got the muscle exercises in.  Kneeling pushups 3x10, 2 rounds of core exercises consisting of plank (15 sec), pushup plank (15 sec), side plank (15 sec), leg lift 1x15.  My back and glutes seem to tighten up on the second lift.  I changed the exercise to knee lifts half way through to relieve the stress.  It helped a little.

Rest day.  No pushups and no core exercises.  Apparently, no cardio either.  Managed only 7600 steps for the day.

Back to kneeling pushups 3x10, 2 rounds of core consisting of plank (15 sec), pushup plank (15 sec), side plank (15 sec), knee raises x 15.  The knee raises feel a lot better than the leg raises for now.  I still get that burn if I do them slow.

35 minutes for my backyard track and hit 3623 steps.  I'm starting to feel better.  I want to start running and doing more, but I'm restraining myself and making sure I don't do too much too quickly.  This is after all just week one.  I want to enjoy the activities that I do.
