Saturday, January 29th, was day 1094. 3 sets 15 wall pushups before bed; day 29 of flossing.
Sunday, January 30th, was day 1095. 120 punches in the bathroom before bed. Day 30 of flossing. Challenge done, starting over so that I have something to compel me to keep up with the damn floss.
Today is day 1096. I had a few pieces of beef jerky earlier, which resulted in me getting day 1 of thirty days of floss done early.
Classic warm up, slightly abbreviated due to arrival of cat
Captain On Deck workout, level 3, with EC
Modded Peach workout. 3 sets of each exercise, 20 reps per leg each set for the leg extensions, leg swings, side extensions; 3 sets of clamshells, 20 reps on each side in each set; 3 sets of lying side leg lifts, 20 reps per leg per lift; 3 sets 20 V leg extensions; no glute flexes; 10-15 seconds rest between each set, with EC
24:13 so that's 1 for the week

Today is day 1092.Yesterday's pyjama trousers rip was along the side of the center back seam, just to the right of the stitches, rather than the stitches popping and coming open. I may be able to repair that if I use a strip of flannel, but first I'm going to take the closest clone that I can of the fabric pieces involved without taking them apart. If the fabric ripped, I don't know how well it'll hold up to patching. Something new may be called for. As soon as I finish the current project I can start with the pattern paper.
That being said. Like I said, day 1092.
Classic warm up
Started the Punch Out! challenge, got as far as 125 overhead punches and 1 minute 20 seconds, then got interrupted by work
Opted to restart Punch Out! from scratch, also to restart my timer
Punch Out! day 30, 500 overhead punches. This challenge is complete.
10,000 Punches, day 30, 20 floor pushups, 700 punches. This challenge is complete.
Captain workout, level 1, at what I think was HIIT intensity or as close as I've gotten to HIIT intensity yet; 25 seconds rather than 20 per exercise, just in case; 30 seconds rest between sets, so that's EC
31:15 total from start of second Punch Out! to end of Captain so that's day 4 for the week

Today is day 1091. Currently on the exhausted and not-feeling-the-greatest side. I may or may not hit the full 20 minutes, but I do intend to at least get my challenges out of the way.
Classic warm up
Punch Out! day 29, 500 punches
10,000 Punches day 29 - 10 floor pushups, 640 punches
Booty Builder workout, with EC. Also I should have changed into my tights or workout shorts because the pyjama pants I was wearing split down the back during the wide squats. Oh well, I was planning on tracing these to replicate them in flannel anyway. I can see if they're reparable or I can take them apart and use them for templates, either one.
24:40 hard breathing/sweat time after the warmup, that's day 3 for the week
ETA: thirty days of floss, day 26

Today is day 1090. Note to self: high rise briefs don't work with this pair of workout leggings/tights. Low rise or workout thong only. Next pair of tights should be made with a higher waistband.
Anyway.
Classic warm up
Punch Out! Day 28, 480 overhead punches in 4 sets
10,000 Punches day 28- 5 floor pushups, 100 punches
Goliath workout, 15 lbs per hand except for lat raises, which were 10 lbs per hand, so no EC (although I did a max of 30 sec rest between sets FWIW)
Orientation Day workout, level 2
Total hard breathing/sweat time after warmup: 30 minutes 15 seconds, so that's day 2 for the week
will edit after tonight's flossing - ETA: thirty days of floss. Day 25.

Punch Out! day 27, 480 punches, not sure why I thought they were supposed to be overheads when I tried to do them yesterday, but oh well
10,000 Punches day 27, 600 punches + 15 floor pushups
Total non-warmup heavy breathing/sweating workout time was 33:30, so that's day 1 for the week
Will edit when I floss tonight. ETA: thirty days of floss day 24

January 22 was day 1087. It was a token day of 100 punches, but I did it, and it was also thirty days of floss day 22.
January 23 was day 1088. I got up to 291 overhead punches (I was working on Punch Out!) when I got interrupted. At least I got that much done. Also did flossing day 23.

I've never actually done quilt making. I went from sewing multi-layer masks to clothing, with the occasional sidestep into sewing fishtail-shaped bags for my nine-year-old nieces or an oven mitt. Not sure I'd have the patience for working up a quilt. i got the thong and the low rise briefs done; today I'll be working on other briefs later since my pattern comes with like three different rise heights and an optional waistband piece.
Exercise-wise, January 20 was day 1085, although I only did day 25 of Punch Out! - 460 punches. Both the 19th and the 20th were flossing days, so I"m up to day 20 of Thirty Days of Floss.
Today is day 1086 of the streak.
Classic warm up
Punch Out! Day 26, 460 overhead punches in 4 sets total
10,000 Punches day 26- ten floor pushups, 580 punches
Captain workout, but done at cardio intensity rather than full HIIT; each set was 25 sec rather than 30; 60 seconds or less between rounds. Level 1. Not sure if this counts as extra credit or not.
Stopwatch was a bit short of my desired goal so I did side jacks until I hit 30 minutes, 30 seconds of hard breathing/sweat intensity exercise; that's day 3 for the week.
Will floss later and count it then; ETA: thirty days of flossing day 21

Today is day 1084.
Classic warm up
Goliath workout, used only 10 lbs per hand as it was my first real weight work in a while, but 15-20 seconds rest between sets may have added a little edge
Punch Out! challenge day 24, 420 overhead punches in 3 sets
Orientation Day workout level 1 but with EC
25:03 breathing hard or sweating, so that's day 2 for the week
Will floss tonight and edit this tonight or tomorrow
Started on next sewing project: unobtrusive thongs and/or briefs for wearing under exercise leggings or tights. Have cut out the base fabric for the first thong and the pattern pieces for the briefs as well as the pattern pieces for the cotton crotch bits. I am trying to work on something sewing related every day this year if at all possible, and the exercise wear stuff, at least, seems appropriately mentioned here.

Doubled Epic Arms: 5x(20 alternating bicep curls+40 punches), using 15 lb weights per arm. Not quite EC. Oh well.

Today is day 1076.
Classic warm up
Out & About workout, level 3, with EC
10,000 Punches, day 22, 25 floor pushups and 500 punches
Punch Out! day 21, 400 punches (in 2 sets)
Total was 33:09 so that's day 1 if I am being accurate and day 2 if I am being generous, as far as the COVID survey goes (haven't caught it yet but working from home and having access to instacart plus being vaccinated and boosted helps with that immensely)
ETA: Thirty Days of Teeth day 11
