    Hey! I am on Week 2, Day 3 of the Hundred Pushup Challenge. LOVE IT! My initial max was 7. Tonight's max was 20!!!! And the adrenaline was PUMPING! I powered through them will all I had in me, and I am please we the results! Next is the exhaustion test.

    I posted a link to the Hundred pushup site on Facebook, and got my sister-in-law and her sister to join! I can't wait until I can do 100 pushups! Even if I don't make it in the allotted 6-weeks, I WILL keep working at it until I can do it, just to prove to everyone that it is possible! My friend's husband said he would buy me a beer if I can do it, lol! Keep up the awesome work, everyone! Also, the makers of these challenges have merchandise, so you can let the world know what you are doing! Pretty cool! I totally want to get a hundred pushups t-shirt :tongue:

    Succeddin2 - thanks so much for flagging this challenge up. Spotted it yesterday, had a look online and did my initial test this morning. Actually think this is a physical challenge I can do on MFP as it just allows you to go at your own pace. Always been rubbish at press-ups and can't wait to get better!

    Initial test:

    Press-ups (on knees): 3 (pathetic!)
    Sit-ups: 60 (room for improvement!)
    Squats: 63 (give me six weeks and I'll be up to 200!)

    Finally started today...

    Press-ups (on knees): 12
    Sit-ups: 120
    Squats: 120

    Just completed my first exhaustion test, after completing the first 2 weeks of the 100 Pushup Challenge. I did 7 pushups (from the toes) on my initial test. Today I did............................ 25! Yeah! So for those that think they can't do 100 pushups, or even 5... YOU ARE WRONG! Give it a try!

    Let me start by saying you all are doing so amazing! Welcome Kimeister & SRH7 to the Challenge! You all are so advanced I have to catch up with you especially since I have very little upper body strength. I started at 75 squats and let me tell you it still is a challenge to me but by week 6 I should be able to do 200.

    Saturday: 160 Squats w/ weights, 10 push ups on the toes and a few side planks
    Sunday: 75 Squats
    Monday: 160 Squats w/ weights, 10 push ups on the toes and a rolling plank.
    Tuesday: 75 Squats 50 sit ups AM (ran out of time I did the treadmill this morning at 5:30 am) tonight will try to do 150 AB’s

    My shoulders are sore from Body Pump today so I will re do my push up initial test tomorrow the next day after Body Pump I am usually sore but I will be fine tomorrow morning.

    Hey, I'm on W3D3 of the squat challenge, I've decided to add in push-ups (from the knees as I can't even make 5 full push-ups). I shall be doing W1D1 tonight :bigsmile: I have a pretty intense workout schedule on top, Monday is my only day off so I'm not sure about the 200 sit-ups on top. I may have a go at the test tonight and see how I do.

    Nice to meet you :flowerforyou:

    Hey,
    Did W3, D3, L3 of squats and did 167 in total.

    Did W1, D1, L2 of push-ups (from the knees) and did 30 in total.

    Am feeling like I should be adding sit-ups - but still not clear on difference between a crunch and a sit-up and yes I've read the instructions!!
