    Today I did 50 just to see if I could (so I know when I need to start splitting them through the day). Can't believe I managed it! I have to say I am glad I'm combining this challenge with a lot of other core strength work or I think I would really be in trouble by this point. I am doing them in 2 or 3 groups at the moment but my break between groups is just to hold in plank position. Does that count as all in one go?

    I'm not posting here super-frequent, but I'm still keeping up my pushups.

    I'm stoked that I can still do them all, proper pushups, in one set. I am doing them fast, but still getting the range of motion.

    If I look ahead I wonder how I will every manage 60 or 80 or 100, but each day is the same as what I did the day before (so I know I can) plus just one more.
    Not too long ago, 20 seemed hard.

    Ah! I have been doing push-ups but haven't been recording them. I started to do 50 a day, which isn't much.

    Day 48 done.

    The best part is seeing my kids encourage me. They are learning that a person can do what she puts her mind to. Sometimes they even try it themselves. :happy:

    Day 38 done.

    Am able to do them all with out a break, mind you I'm doing the majority of them as girlie (box) push ups. However, for the first time ever I'm able to do a few proper, on my toes, push ups to start. I began with 4 to start, and have added one to the begining of each set each day since.

    Was able to manage 8 full press ups today followed by the rest of the set doing girl push ups. Might not sound impressive to you guys, but last year I couldn't do more than 4 girl push ups in a row! :laugh:
    It's impressive to me. I'm splitting mine and also doing the girlie ones but try to do 5 proper ones at the beginning of my splits. I think I'll try to do what you are by adding one at the beginning each day of each split. I accepted this challenge since I HATE push ups and totally stink at doing them. I'm getting better though! woot woot!

    Me too! I totally sucked at any kind of push up untill I did the 30 DS. This challenge is a killer for me, but managed 22 full push ups and 30 box (without a break). I may be in danger of getting a strong upper body here! :laugh:
