Level 1, Week 1, Day 1
2, 3, 2, 2, 3

Holy Cow! I'm doing mine on my knees, as well. I'm hoping when I can do all 100 on my knees, I'll be able to begin again and do them on my feet, not my knees.

That's my plan, too!

I am in! I made it to week 4 last time I tried, then I got side tracked. I started the week before last, and didn't make it to week 2 yet. So off to start at week 2. Doing modified pushups. Then I'll do it again with the standard pushups.

Dont feel like a weakling if your doing modified push-ups its totaly fine! As a trainer I cud tell you modified push-ups are also known as womens push-ups and they are extremely good as well! Your all doing great!!!
Im doing the push up challenge and the squat challenge (the squats make me feel al-powerful cuz i could comfortably do 75 in a set)

I was only able to pull off two sets yesterday ; 30 the first set and 40 the seconds). We were just going and going and going yesterday I hardly found the time to squeeze those in.

The Lord blessed me with strong shoulders and I've always been able to do a straight leg push up. I was one of the only girls in grade school that could do them. Unfortunately, I have really short hamstrings so I can't touch my toes for a lot of people (and I stretch all the time). Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.

I'm going to try and do this push up thing every other day. But I'm also fitting it in with my pull up routine as well.

Adding myself to the list! Sorry I am joining a smidge late....I will get started today! I am so excited, this is just the thing I need!

I'm doing the other modification on mine, too, the knuckle push-ups. My husband says it makes me look fierce even though I'm doing like 5 push-ups :laugh:

I have carpal tunnel, so the knuckle ones feel better on my wrists.

Week one day one
total of 12 sit ups three of them I did modified just to get through it... Also could not push up from the floor on the last set, lol, may have to repeat the first day just to gain strength for the second one.

I am so sore today...

nachisdoll

Day 2 for both my squat challenge-only able to master 50 at the max....when i did the test i was able to do 75 but i guess after all the other sets...its alot harder (started week 3 cuz i was able to do so many)
and push ups i still managed 10 (not all the way to the floor but close) at the end of all the sets
Hows everyone else holding up?

Fineraziel

Wow! I am so sore today! O.O (Did day 1 yesterday... Today was a rest day but I had to do my regular cardio routine and boy! I feel the pain in my chest and thighs for doing so many push-ups and squats yesterday. :S )

Week 2, day 2: 44 total. Yikes my arms were killing me, I think the weights at the gym killed me todat (then I did the pushups)

darrenw74

Restarted week 3 day 1.
Still abysmal
12, 17, 7 good form

Thanks for mentioning this. I don't have carpal tunnel, but I do have a touch of arthritis. I am going to try this and see if it feels better.

Week 1, Day 2 (rank 2)

6/8/6/6/7

I'm doing full push-ups. Thought I might as well go for it as I (just about) can.

Did the test for the Squats - a disappointing 27, so I'm going to do the 200 Squats also.

Thinking about the sit-ups.....

Burtonrah

Got throught Day 2 of week 1 (full pushups set 2 )!!! Got 36 done today!!!

lauble

Did my 'test' yesterday and will start program today. I did not do great at all, only 16 on my knees...I couldn't even do one regular I even got my husband to do it with me. Looking forward to seeing my results! I am thinking I will work up to doing them regular again.

Just completed Week 1 Day 2. I love it!

Why such long rest times? Maybe I'll start doing squats instead of just sitting and waiting...
