In the beginning, there was nothing

It all started last week. Tuesday. In fact, it all started Monday, but night, but the first workout was done on Tuesday. I have wrote the whole story here, you should check it out too, it's fun.

Point is, I just started because I had to start. And because of that, I started small. And it was a huge success! It was enough to make an impact, and not so much that it would discourage, or tire me out. I will write about that happening too, because I have been there too.

Talal Khan (a friend since grade seven) once told me, we often think about advanced things, doing this and that, and making our workouts seem all serious and efficient. But really, even if we did petty, sissy exercises, but did them regularly, we would be better off. He's right. He's always been fit, he's always been an athlete (as far as I can remember), so he automatically got time here and there to play football. And that is a proof of what he said. So this time, I decided differently. I thought, instead of giving it my best shot, and doing it 'right', I would Just Do It. And let it fine tune itself as the time passes. But as for me, I have only one goal. To exercise, or do anything that can be, by any standard, qualified as exercise, regularly.

The first workout went like this:

1 Squat, 10 push-ups, 30 sec rest.
2 Squats, 9 push-ups, 30 sec rest.
...
10 Squats, 1 push-up, Voila!

This worked great. Man this worked great! The best part? Completed within 15 minutes. Even better part? Completed! and the most awesomestest part? I did 55 push-ups in one day, probably first time in my life! I needed a week till my triceps and chest could properly recover to do that much again. But it was fun, so much fun, that it set the feels rolling. I am gonna recommend anyone and everyone to try this from now :) Specially the heavy and strong kind who've trouble starting working out.
