Swam today as usual.  After having two days off my arms felt refreshed.  I have been bad with my pushups and crunches.  Missed the last three days.  But over the weekend a friend of mine said in the military they did a reverse pyramid with the pushups.  They started at 10 and counted down with only a few seconds of rest in between.  Since I was not sure about a few seconds, I waited five.  My arms were shaking by 4 and on down.  Even typing now they have that same feeling.  Forgot to mention I had already done fifty before the pyramid.  One week until next doctor appointment.  Hopefully biking and aqua jogging is allowed.  Running is still in the distant future I believe.

Had more cramps in my right calf and right foot today.  Seemed to happen shortly after pushing off the wall on turns.  Not sure why this seems to be happening more and more often.  I wonder if my poor diet contributes to the cramping.
