I'm moving from doing push-ups thee times a week (5x 40, sometime to only 30) to doing them daily in the morning. I'll aim for 3x to failure. This morning that was 50-40-41. I'll move to doing pull-ups/chin-ups 5x a week, Monday through Friday (when at home). I'm making some progress with pull-ups/chin-ups, even not having work on them much. It might be a bit hard to fit them in during the morning if I'm running, but I wan't to be able to do pull-ups in the evening. Doing push-ups at work (but not going to the gym)might be a bit weird, though I could probably pull it off.
I've not run since Tuesday a week ago. My left knee area is feeling much better, after a day or two last weekend when it hurt even when I wasn't doing anything. Now it feels back to normal, though I've not tried to run again yet. I may give it a try this weekend, weather permitting. It might be safer to give it a few more day though.
One thing I've noticed is that the quad tendonitis may have been slowing me down for the last month or two, when my easy pace did seem to be getting slower. I think tendon soreness could have been the cause. I'm hopefull getting rid of this soreness will make me faster (and more comfortable). This is part of learning to recognize what is just tiredness and what is a sign of impending injury.
