    Okay I'm keeping track off all mine in one post cause I'll lose them otherwise.

    W1D1 Pushups: 27 (Was hoping to make it to 30. That last one was something else...)
    W1D1 Situps: 42
    W1D1 Squats: 38

    And guess where all my power/muscle comes from. When I hit 100 on pushups I am SO celebrating!

    Heh only reason I'm doing them together is to give me a "round" workout. I like the 30min versus the 10. ;D

    alright folks! well i am late in getting started; my birthday weekend was very hectic. but i'm back.

    so tonight i did my initial test and was able to do 14(knees) with really good form. i stopped counting when i could tell that my but wanted to sag. and also stopped so i would hurt myself.

    i'll be a couple days behind everyone cause i'll be starting day one on wednesday but i'm very excited! hope everyone is doing well. can't wait to see what numbers we are all up to at the end of this!

    Day 1 DONE. 17 total....8 at the end. That made me happy AND my hubby watched my form to make sure I kept butt down. :) Can wait to have killer arms for my bathing suit...hopefully that'll distract from the not so killer legs. lol

    Awesome job everybody! We're rocking it!

    Sara-Jane, don't worry about being behind. I know of at least one other member who isn't going to be able to do Day 1 until Wednesday. As long as we all stay relatively within the same "week" of the program, it's all right. No worries. :)

    W1D2: 54 total. Clearly I miscounted last time - should have been 45 (argh). Set 5 max: 16!!

    MUCH better performance than Day 1!! Woot! woot!

    W2D2 total: 19. I think I could have done more in that last set, but I'm just so wiped out today.

    Great job folks! vraesgame, I think that sounds like a great idea. You can do it!

    mmtiernan - Awesome job!!

    lionempress - Great job, your situps rock, way to go!

    Vanessa - Great idea!!

    AJ - Good job on not pushing your body into doing something that might cause an injury. I think we all need to listen to our bodies more, it's ok to push but not to ignore real pain or tired muscles.


    W1D2: 36 and I about died, LOL. Huuuuurting!! I'm with you Katie, how can I do so many more than I was able to do during the test. So weird but as long as it's working, I'll take it. :)

    Lionempress ~ Hey we all have to start somewhere, right?? good job!

    Happy Belated bday Rocka!!

    Way to go everyone!!

    Amy, glad I'm not the only one!! LOL

    I think when I can't do any more on my toes on my max set, I'm going to drop to my knees and see how many more I can push out :)

    Push-ups W1D2C2: 42 ~ 6,8,6,6, max 16 (all on toes)

    Sit-ups: W3D2C2: 121 ~ 21, 28, 21, 21, max 30 w/5lb weight (I'm doing Russian Twist sit-ups)
