Went to the gym three times. Went to 5 kg on my curls (3 sets of 12). Worked up the courage to take over one of the benches to do half-way-down push-ups and managed seven.
It's scary how much my actions or lack thereof are still determined by the fear of being yelled at by a gym teacher. I'm working on it.

*nods a lot* A couple of years ago, I think I started discovering I could go into a climbing wall or a gym and there was no gym teacher there to yell at me.
It's amazing how much difference that makes. If I'd figured it out sooner, I might not have spent twenty years hiding from all forms of physical exertion.
