Yesterday I completed the pre-season tasks and wrote down all those excuses I have used for years.

This morning I did my Thursday week 6 toning session from 'Crunch Time' and thought back to those excuses when I came to the pushups section. I have a condition in my back which causes me to over-rely on my neck and shoulder muscles to do things. So pushups for me are really hard because of my neck/shoulders. I usually skip them because they are 'too hard'. But today I managed to do 5 on my toes and then 10 on my knees. Yes it hurt but hopefully I will build up strength so it doesn't hurt. Maybe someone with expertise can give me some hints on how to perform pushups without hurting my neck and shoulders?

Feeling very tired now after hard session. A bowl of porridge and a cuppa will hopefully help kick start my day!
