Thanks for getting this started. It'll be cool to see how we all do. I'm going to start today because I don't want to lose the motivation.

Me too. I'm a bit impatient and want to go ahead and get the push ups going.

This should be fun!

Should we have a side-challenge going - how many consecutive pushups we can do, without breaking them down into groups?
May motivate me to push harder..

lets do it!

i'm starting on 10 for day one though.
remember to get full effect, use a FULL range of motion.

extend at the top, chest to the floor!

starting at 1 on the first day, this should be a good way to increase everyones pushup and bench ability!
nice and slow progression is the way!

remember! MAKE THEM COUNT!

Sure. Thats the idea of the challenge. But if some of you need to break them down in groups then by all means.

I was thinking about alternating doing regular one day and then diamond the next.

This is awesome. I have never done more than 30 push ups in one session so this will be great to see how well I can do with this! Going to look pretty funny on the exercise log...
