    Thank you for keeping me accountable.

    I have issues with my right rotator cuff, so pushups are a little out of my league right now. I'm still just trying to coax the muscles around it to build up so I can start building upper body strength.

    Thank you for your honest response. :ohwell:

    Pushups happen to be something I have always hated :grumble:

    I can't wait until I get stronger and I can say that doing them is not something I dread. :explode:

    Imagine doing 100 of the thing you hate the most...with tremendous strength and ease. :bigsmile:

    I wonder if overcoming this will build my confidence :glasses: and make me not dread them forever?!

    I am IN!! :wink:

    Hmmm, I hadn't considered that I might not hate them so much if I got better at them. I'm not sure if that is true or not. I guess I'll find out.

    Oh man, this sounds crazy! :huh:

    I think I'll have to give it a shot. :laugh:

    I'll do my initial test tomorrow, and then probably start week 1 on Monday. I fully expect to only be able to do ONE good form pushup - so I might have to start with the alternative (knee) style.

    This is gonna be hard. :sad:
