Take the one hundred pushups challenge (hundredpushups.com)

I completed the initial test and I was able to do 14 push-ups. I also completed the required number of pushups for Day One. I’m sure my arms will be sore tomorrow!

I’m going to start this challenge today!

A month has gonna by and nothing,I have really neglected this goal not because I don’t want to do it, but I don’t have the room dumd right? no more excuses I go outside to workout so I can do this outside too. along with my other 2 goals of the same sort arrghh….. hope to start making some lead way. No more waiting no more excuses.

Even thought it says I should start at like week 3 or 4, I think I will start at week one and do the whole 6 weeks or have ever long it takes me, I’m so ready to do this for me it’s about fitness and strength and not just getting it done.

I was talking to my good friend about this, as we’re basically the same person, so she may have wanted to do this as well. Both of us have a similar problem with our left shoulders (like it clicking when we move it and pain there). She had asked her physical therapist about push-ups and it may actually make our shoulders worse until we strengthen them with some different exercises.

So, I’m just putting this on hold for a bit until I can talk to a PT again. Le-sigh.

Day 1

I’m starting off in the 6-10 pushup range, which is actually pretty decent for me, considering how little upper body strength I believe I have. I’m not touching my chin to the ground, which I know you’re supposed to do, so I’m just going down about 6 inches above the ground. Maybe I’ll repeat this goal and do it the “real” way then. Or I’ll just keep repeating week 1 until I can do it the “real” way. Who knows?

Day 2

Man, I feel week. 10 was all I could manage at the end of the sets. And just yesterday, my friend did 100 pushups with someone sitting on his back. I hate having super buff friends. (Even my really skinny lazy friend can do 60!)

Day 3

Ughh. I was up north for a family thing and I almost forgot to do them. Did it quick on Sunday afternoon, but I was dead tired by then so they didn’t look that good. Maybe I’ll have to even repeat this week… fail

I started this and I can’t believe that I could only do 20 to begin with. Oh my oh my… But it felt great and I’m going to love this. I got the app on my phone so it’s extra fun. I can’t believe these days I’m calling exercise fun! Times certainly change!

30 without the much pushing so, I think I’ll start there.

Also got this goal take the two hundred situps challenge and this one take the two hundred squats challenge

and they all say I should start at week 3 so in a few weeks we will see I’m so ready don’t need to put this off any longer.

I will finish this before my 22nd birthday on June 11.

I fell in the 3rd Rank of 15-29 pushups. I might have been able to do 30, but was a little concerned that I have an aneurism.

I’ll be starting this challenge next tuesday (which marks six weeks since giving birth). My beautiful husband reckons I won’t be able to master 100 push ups – so I am super determined to complete the challenge and prove him wrong :P

Nothing wrong with a little extra incentive!
