Getting started on the training each morning is hard but I always get through at least one of the strength or cardio exercises before work and get to the other after. Possibly not ideal but manageable.
- Skipping still requires short breaks for catching breath and tripping, but the runs are longer and the breaks are shorter.
- Push-ups still feel weak. On toes I'm not getting a real deep lowering and have to fail back to knees on the third and fourth sets. But I do flesh out the reps when this is necessary.
- Incline Pull-ups are still very tough and I'm only getting through two sets cleanly. Third set is half-motion and fourth is just a sort of vague strain that is wilfully upwards.
- Sit-ups are okay for the first set but become crunches in the second and later sets. I have a question for Patrick about this.
- Lunges are difficult and boring, but actually easier now that I'm returning to full standing position between each rep.
- Everything else is fine. Resistance bands make it easy to find a place which requires a lot of effort but is doable.
I am pretty much the same as you for all the exercises apart from the sit ups. I do crunches which allows me to see my flabby tummy so it motivates me to do more of them so I get a good good burn with them.
