Day 1:
I started well and managed to complete 20 reps without much trouble. However I wanted to increase my reps, but accordingly that would have to follow in the next week. The treadmill pull up reps were getting easier too and the my shoulders and arms started to improve in size and shape. So this motivated to me continue this routine.
Day 2:
Workload of University was getting higher, so I found it harder to wake up in the mornings of the last two days. I happen to use the nights when reaching home, about an hour before dinner to follow up with my morning reps. This brought about the change in my appetite, but I had to continue eating for nutrition and buildup of muscles.
Day 3:
I continued my routine in the morning since I hadn't slept the night before (working on an assignment). I had to literally drag myself to do the workout, and get it over with, although I had a feeling the reps may have been done a little incorrectly. However the entire day seemed to be less energetic and I fatigued myself. This new Foosball game was introduced and I took a lot of humiliation as I was playing against advanced players.

Week 2
Day 1:
Woke up this morning feeling rather better and stronger in the exercise, the body clock really started to work this time around. I still continued the daily exercise and managed to pull the 20 reps faster and easier. Since my arms were adjusting to the workout, it seemed easy and pushing doors and climbing stairs (as i skip stairs pulling myself up with the reeling) seemed to be really easier and powerful.
Day 2:
It was a little difficult to wake up on time, and being late on schedule I had to compensate the workout at night when I i was worn out and tired. The Sanctions of missing out on this exercise seemed to be high and I didn't want my muscles to slow down the rate of exercise. I found it a little difficult to pull 20 reps, but managed it and fell on bed as a reward.
Day 3:
Woke up on time, and continued on the exercise as planned, this time I implemented another exercise bringing a 90degree angle of my treadmill to do pull ups. The exercise was straining to my triceps but it nevertheless worked pretty well, I hardly had the energy to pull myself off the ground though.

Week 1
Day 1:
The beginning was pretty hard and I found it hard trying to get up and get myself to work. My weights were 4KG dumbbells as I wanted to tone up my muscles first and not strain my muscles. This was researched from a website I've posted separately below. So Anyway, the strain felt this morning and I could really feel it burning as I reached my 15th rep, my arms started to shake and I managed to just pull about 19 reps.
Day 2:
The second day it became a little more easier to work this out as my body clock kind of followed (perhaps because I had made the intention). The reps increased a little as I reached my 15th rep, and it didn't seem as hard because I believed I had done this before. Pulling through to the 19th though was just as hard, and watching myself in the mirror didn't really help.
Day3:
The 3rd day of the week, did however seem rather easier. I managed to pull through 19 reps faster, and my biceps did somehow manage to feel stronger, if not bigger. It would be my own conscious to believe it was bigger, but I doubt it would have changed at this initial stage of the workout. I tried to channelize my frustration to the 20th rep, and in that adrenaline rush It seemed easier to reach that level.
