Push Ups
Friday, 03 February 2012 - Written by adigerati [profile]
I started the one-hundred push ups program for the hundredth time (actually I believe this is my third or fourth attempt). My approach has been a little different this time. If I can't complete all the reps in a set then I have to do the whole week over. I still complete the week and do as much as I can, but come Monday it's back to day 1 of last week.

Three weeks into the plan and today I completed Week one. I will be moving on to week two next week. To celebrate I went ahead and did 101 push ups today. It took me 9 sets.

At this rate; this 6 week program should only take me about.. 5 years (ok maybe 4 years). No problem.

*Currently 18.66 miles ahead of my 2012 running mileage goal of 1,000 miles

I tried the test and managed 40 in the first set and 30 in the 2nd.... then I gave up and ran instead! lol

HA! After reading your post, I was going to ask about the challenge. Thank you Keyronn for posting it.
God luck man! I bet you can do it in less than 4 years :p

Yep, that's the one I'm using. I failed to follow through with sit up and squat challenges along with failing to do the push ups. I'll tackle them when I'm done with the push ups.

On a related note, I did some body weight squats the other day (just for fun) and I'm still feeling pain. I'm being very cautious about taking too much on but I also really feel the need to include some strength building into my workout regime.

Are you using this program? hundredpushups.com/ I did the sit up and squat challenges. Always wanted to try the pushup challenge.
