    Last time I checked, that was a carrot in my hand, not a gun.... :-)

    Have fun with the planks and tricep bumps. Both deadly...

    Today my pushups: 10, 12, 7, 7, 9 (right on par, and not as easy as I'd hoped).

    Situps: 15, 18, 10, 10, 18 (woohoo!)

    Decided to squats but didn't know how many. I did 3 sets of 15.

    I did a whole bunch of other weight training but was kicking myself for not getting in cardio... so I added 10 mins on the stairmaster. That thing is a killer!

    How did you do? Your audience awaits... ?

    How'd everyone get on with Day 1?

    Scarlette, those are impressive Day 1 stats!

    I did all of the sets...

    Situps (the one that started with about 20)
    Pushups (the one tha starts with about 12)
    Squats (the one that starts with about 15)
    Tricep dips (the second column, so the one that started wit 6?)

    Then plank which I managed to shake through to 1min...just about thoug it was a very tough call!

    And today I HURT! (ok so I also did other workouts yesterday...but still, it's gotta be these that inflicted the final punishing blows hehe) but I kinda love that I woke up aching!

    this actually sounds fun. I have to work on my Pushups more. Pretty sure I hardly can do the fourty i used to do in bootcamp.

    I did my day 2 on Wednesday which I found easier than day 1

    Squats, pushups situps, triceps and plank for 60 seconds (plus again in a class)

    Are people doing 3 x week or every other day or?
    My arms hurt today following body pump and lots of pressups and not sure whether to do the sets today (Friday planned day) or tomorrow...and when to star week 2 (Sunday or Monday?)

    I'm going to do it every other day I think. So I'll probably start week 2 on Sunday. but we don't need to be in perfect synch?

    I printed out the entire 6 week schedules for this, a few weeks back, and then tried the push-ups and could only do three. then i gave up lol

    When you say do this with you... you mean go through the program as they outline it? Or jump right in and do the 100, 200 and so on?

    I ask because I am just starting this and there's no WAY I'm getting close to that number just yet.

    If it's to do the program then I'm all in.
