Here's some motivation. I found this clip of a lady who finished this challenge and did the 100. She's got other clips from the challenge too, so I'll post more later.

    Hi there,

    I'm new to MyFitness Pal and I've just been browsing through the challenges and found this link.

    Is this challenge still open?

    I've always wanted to have more upper body strength to do military style push-ups and this looks like a great way to do that.

    Of course!!! It's an open group, so go right ahead. So excited to have you! Once you do the initial test, let us know how it went at the "initial test" discussion. And no need to catch up, you have to go at the given pace anyway, so go with that. We're here to cheer you on!

    Are you guys doing other workouts too while doing this challenge, or just pushups? I feel like I'm cheating as I do HIIT workouts a couple days a week too.

    I'm a pretty active cyclist! I think most of us are likely pursuing some other form of exercise too. :)

    I think everyone is doing their own thing, just adding this program as a part of their workouts. :)

    I'm also participating in the Hogwarts challenge. This is the last week with a new term starting in September. I do much better with goals I need to achieve.

    Here's some inspiration! This amazing lady is in week 4. If you go to her channel, you'll see her complete the challenge. It's inspiring to me to see that it's actually possible lol!
