One hundred pushup challenge!

[DarthAngel707]

wow, most people on this site are relatively strong. I thought you guys were all nerds

 

[Truman181]

Strength is relative Darth. I bet these guys are like 100 pounds less than I am!

Week 2 (Week 1 workout, Day 3)

I'm most impressed that I actually did 5 push ups on the first set. That's my max so far. As you can see I fell short on the other sets. But it is way better than last week. I am making progress and I will repeat week 1 again next week. I know I will be able to complete week 1 next week. I'm gonna tear this sh1t up.

I did this about 3 hours after getting home from lifting boxes for 5 hours, so I don't know if I could have actually done more on the last one. I'll try it Friday when I wake up.

 

[Jitterbug]

Heh, I've been running this on another forum. Didn't know that you guys do it here too.

I could do 50 continuous push-ups before this, but I want that nice number 100.

I'm at week 3, day 2 now, following the 3rd column: 27-19-19-15-45.

Did it at work this afternoon and the heater was buggered today (it's freezing down here) so that felt good!

Did alot of ppl quit?

 

[TheVirtualMind]

Something came up Thursday and took over my whole weekend, so I wasn't able to do Day 3 of Week 2. Instead of skipping, I'm going to do Week 2 this week.

I'm not taking back my words

 

[Mr.Fantastic]

I'm in! I have been going to the gym for a while now, so I can do around 20 consecutive pushups - would love to do 100! So I'm committing to this! Gonna start tomorrow!

No massive gains there, but I also took a long break. The test is gonna be >30 anyway, so I'll start week 3.

P.S.: Truman keep us updated! We're all rooting for ya - give em hell!

 

[Truman181]

I haven't quit either. I just figured it seemed pathetic that I keep repeating week 1 and I didn't want to put too much pressure on myself. So what I have been doing is continuing the workouts but posting the updates on my blog. I suppose I can copy and paste the updates here once I feel as though I am ready to move on from week 1 which should be after next week (after 5 weeks!).

Thanks for the encouragement guys. Keep up the good work!

Anyone else noticing improvements in your body? So far, my arms have gotten a bit bigger, my chest is more defined and square, my back is a bit wider, my shoulders are more round, and my abs are more defined.

 

[Truman181]

My arms seem to have gotten huge. They have to be to push 275 off the floor repeatedly! I feel now that I'm finally getting my 'base strength' established, I will have more success in the following weeks.

 

[Huffman]

Anyone else noticing improvements in your body?

Actually yes! But I somehow doubt that 6 lonely pushup sessions would trigger massive gains.

 

[redspicyflag]

Wow good job guys!

Stick to it!

I did some yard work, so I didn't feel so strong
