It's week 1! You'll probably be sore after the first day lol. But keep pushing! You'll feel better in a few days and start to feel stronger!

Post your sets and how they went here!

    I did week 1 day 1 yesterday, and I did 6, 6, 4, 4, 7 pushups. The last set was hard, but squeezed them out. Feeling sore today!

    Week 1, day 2 of the 100 pushup challenge done! Sets of 6, 8, 6, 6, 8.

    Was still a little sore from day 1, but got through it no problem. Already starting to feel stronger!

    Day 3! It's so early in the morning, but I did them!

    8, 10, 7, 7, 10

    The last set was super hard. Way harder than the previous days, but it's probably because I didn't sleep enough. Anyway, on to week 2 next week. I'm looking forward to taking two days off lol. But I'm pumped for next week!

    Hey Flybeetle! The program is 3 days a week. You’re supposed to take a day off between each workout. I’m doing M W F, but you can do it whenever works best for you. Hundredpusups.com has the details.

    Good job!

    Ooooooh, whoops! That makes sense, I couldn’t understand how you kept going to strongly day after day 😄 I’m very sore!
    Alright, so I’ll rest today then 👍🏼

    This day was so much harder than the previous ones! Barely got the last set of 10 out. I hope I can keep up with the increasing sets!!

    I know, it gets hard pretty fast, right? You got this, Flybeetle! I remember when I did this challenge before, I had to repeat some weeks. I'm sure I'll have to do that again at some point, but it's not a bad thing. We'll get there eventually!

    Day 1 accomplished!
    6, 6, 4, 4, 5+ (ended up doing 6)
    Using the ol' trick I use when I have to perform pushups for my PRT every year - pound 'em out hard and fast before the back spasms lay me out lol

    Nice Dawnshealth, column 3! Great work! Are you modifying them at all, or going full out?
