    Wednesday Mini Challenge

    edited October 2024 in Fitness and Exercise
    Today's challenge is: Push-ups

    Let's see if we can do 200.

    You can do them any style you want and you have until midnight to get them done.
    Do them the hardest way you can and try to get all 200.
    The important thing is that you try to do it.
    Make sure you stretch and have fun doing them.
    Report back when you are done and let us know how you did.

    Welcome!

      I'm up for this I will do a real modified version - the ones I do in pilates class - but that is due to the fact my fitness level is really low

      I'll try and give it a go! I'm not fantastic at push ups so will have to split them up over the day!

      I'll try to do as many as I can. My upper body isn't very strong, but I can run for a very long time. This will be something new to me.

      Count me in too! (But it will be the on my knees version too, as I definitely couldn't do 10 real ones let alone 200!)

      OMG!! Arms are soo rubbery!! It was fun.. but it was hard!! I cannot do a full push up. I fall on my nose. (Tried.) So, I used a wall. It's hard to hold up to get each "push up" close as it needs to be. Evententually, I will be able to do alll 200 from the floor. I am determined.

      push-up's are the one thing I can barely do.. my upper arm strenght needs working on.. BUT, all that being said I'll give it my best shot. Of course I'll have to do the girly version (on my knees) but I'll try when I workout today after work... Good luck everyone!

      I'm in! I'm going to space it out during the day. I timed myself last week and could only do 20 in 2 minutes. My arms were like rubber!

      200 - I will do my best. If I can get past 1 then I'm doing better than I have in 30 years!

      Done - all were modified (desk) pushups

      My isometric routine is up tonight and I usually do 3 sets of 30. but I'll try to incorporate the PUs into the 2nd set of supersets to do the other 110. Or will up the sets to 40 and do 5 sets somewhere. Will report.
