Grueling training day... my training diary entry from August 4 2026

(This photo was taken during a winter hike in January of this year. I am so looking forward to finally being able to go hiking again.)

Hi Actifitters,

yesterday, I was able to try out the new intermediate goal in the close-grip push-up training plan for the first time. I have to say, it went quite well for a first attempt. I'm just two reps short in the last set of reaching the next milestone.

The next goal according to the training plan (53+):

set 1set 2set 3set 4set 5break between sets
101299max (min. 13)90 seconds

My previous attempt (47):

set 1set 2set 3set 4set 5break between sets
911881160 seconds

Yesterdays attempt (51):

set 1set 2set 3set 4set 5break between sets
1012991190 seconds

In addition, I did a few dumbbell exercises for the shoulders and triceps. Since it was extremely hot yesterday, the workout felt quite strenuous, and sweat was pouring off me.

Nevertheless, after a short break, I pulled myself together and cycled two more routes on Zwift, which really wore me out. Fortunately, I had nothing left to do yesterday and could take it easy for the rest of the day.


Mission 80 (Day 37 = 88.4 kg / Goal = 80.0 kg / Initial weight = 90.0 / Total loss = 1.6 kg)

After burning a good number of calories yesterday, I was optimistic that I had lost some weight. Unfortunately, however, that is not the case, because I weigh 100 grams more than yesterday.


I’ve planned a light core stability workout for today. Afterwards, I’d like to knock out a few kilometers on the indoor trainer.
