    What is the 100 pushup challenge?

    Check out our first thread. It's simply called "One hundred PushUps" and it has a link with the plan and schedule. Hope this helps. This week is the start of week 2.

    I did the modified pushups last week and Saturday morning I was doing 51! So I am starting this morning with Week 1 Day 1 first level, full pushups! I hope I can make it through. I was so sore with the modified pushups!

    Okay, there we are. Had trouble finding you guys. Was supposed to do day 2, week 1 today, but my workout consisted of abut 7 kinds of pushups, so no juice left in the arms to do the challenge. managed over 50 as it was,but will do the challenge tomorrow.

    FYI...this is the original post that started the week 1 thread last week:

    quote]
    Here's a site with a six-week program to get you to do 100 consecutive push ups!

    hundredpushups.com
    [/quote]

    I am posting my accomplishment for Level 1 - Week 2 - Day 4

    Sets: 1 (4), 2 (4), 3 (3), 4 (3), and last but not least set 5 (maxed out at 8 using correct form).

    I did them according to the fitness level determined by the above site.

    I will reevaluate my ability to do them as ...REGULAR pushups after day 12.

    Soon I WILL do 100 regular pushups...commitment + determination = success :bigsmile:

    Any other Level 1 people out there??

    OK...so I don't hate this like walking on a bed of nails...but still get a feeling kinda like jumping off a cliff to go hang gliding for the first time...very intimidated but somewhat excited!!
