For those interested, I was counting his reps so he wouldn't need to pay attention to them himself. He structured it into an EMOM format to allow for recovery. The first 9 minutes were sets of 15 pushups, then 45 minutes of 10 pushups (was trying to keep pushups under 12 seconds). The last 6 minutes had added pushups on top of the base of 10. Comes out to:

15 pushups x 9 minutes

10 pushups x 54 minutes

5 pushups x 1 minute

+2 pushups in the last few seconds

Think you're definitely right about alcohol. Really sad to give it up... but it just sets me so far behind in any given day or week.

Lately I drink club soda with a dash of some of bitters. I like these guys:

Not truly alcohol free but functionally alcohol free.

Also, since you're in the CrossFit circles, I am sure you have heard of Athletic Brewing. I think their Hazy IPA is pretty solid! It is at least able to scratch that beer itch for me.

I'll check out those Ghia drinks.

--Congrats on a strong performance!

Outstanding. Keeping a 10 pushup pace for that long is a feat.

Thanks! It was a lot of fun. I feel really relaxed this evening which I almost never do.
