Hold up. 500/day? And once you did 2,000 in one day?
Yup. I’m not pretending to be strong nor tough nor badass, I’m not. I’m not fighting anyone, nor am I otherwise impressing anyone at the gym.

Just a Boomer, albeit with a slim frame and low BMI which helps a lot with push-ups.

I've read several articles over the years that essentially say push-ups are just as effective for cardiovascular health as running. We're on the right path. Between you and HHM's kid, I'm blown away. Will update on February 1st. So far, I'm 6/6 with increasing reps/sets every day.

Since I'm single and don't have any roommates, I don't like having alcohol in my apartment because inevitably I will get very bored and drink solely out of boredom. I don't want to go down that path. So I usually only drink any alcohol if I have family or friends visiting me from back home or when I go back home to visit. When I was visiting for what turned out to be two weeks (thanks southwest) earlier this month, I drank enough to get it out of my system for a while.

I did go ahead and buy some edibles yesterday after taking over a month off. I like to take breaks with those as well, usually just a week or two but this time ended up being longer. It really is crazy the difference in my sleeping quality though with edibles compared to without. Slept freaking amazing last night. I love no hangovers, just the absolute best. Woke up at 6 am for work and boom, good to go. Just need to remind myself to take breaks more regularly because the edibles feel so much better immediately after coming back from a break.

I don't know about this sobriety stuff, but this thread did make me realize how long it's been since I have done a push up.

Gonna knock out 50 when I get home just to prove I still have that physical capability and confuse the hell out of my wife.

Update: mixed results this weekend. On Friday I made great progress on a business/legal transaction I have been stressing and working on for 2.5 years, and I came home and slurped down one (only one) shot of tequila in celebration. However, I impressed myself last night when some friends hosted a casino night in their home and it was very top-shelf across the board, including the bar menu and options. I managed 4 hours of poker + socializing with people that were all drinking and I only put down** 3 La Croix. Tonight with this nasty weather the Fam is heading up to the city to our fave ramen joint for dinner, but no Japanese beers for me. ?

** I did take (and enjoy) a 10mg gummy later in the night.
