Okay so I finished day 2 week 1. This time I did most of them without being on my knees. I did a total of 45 pushups. I made that mistake because I'm also doing the 200 squats and 200 abs challenge and got my numbers wrong.
Overall, I'm sore but glad I'm doing this.
Excellent work...your improving every day!
I'm still on Week 2 Day 1. I ended up getting pretty sick and have to take a few days off. But I'm planing my come back for Monday!
Feel better! See you Monday.0 -
Week 1, day 2, level 2 6,8,6,6,10 with 90 second rest
I had some extra energy tonight so I decided to do this again tonight with the same numbers, so that gives me a total of 72 today0 -

Double workouts will surely payoff.0 -
Just completed week 2,day 2, level 3. This time,it was 14,16,12,12,17 reps consecutively with a 90 second rest between sets. I cut down the rest time to 60 seconds just to get it over with quicker Lol. Once again,the last set was a struggle around Rep 8. Had to stop and take a 5 second break,then knocked out the rest of the reps. It's amazing to see how much we've all progressed already and it's only week 2. Keep it up everyone! By the end we'll all be doing 100 pushups in a row..anyway,day 3 coming up saturday,then hopefully starting week 3 on monday0

progress today,
I gave my military style a go today and managed 5 (not bad for someone who could only do 1/2 a week ago) 1/2 meaning lowering myself down slow and controlled but unable to push myself back up again.
Ill give it a go later and get hubby to watch and make sure my form is correct,
... then I think Ill do an exhaustion test on sunday and start the military push up challenge 
Ill prob be starting in column 1 but at least its ***military*** and not ***girly*** any more :D:D:D:D
the progress I have made so far astounds me 0 -

not really so quick lol, I've been at this for about 4 months and started doing the push ups on the back of a couch, because I could only barely do 3 on my knees

Great work! You are setting goals and meeting them. Very impressive!0 -
I missed yesterday so I did week 1 day 3 level 2 now. 8,10,7,7,10 - 120 seconds. I bought some push up stands yesterday and tried them out for the first time today. My shoulders would hurt doing push ups before and these seemed to fix that completely but wow they make a huge difference when you can drop even lower. By the final set my arms were shaking like crazy.0

Ive decided to get better at the military push ups by doing sets one day on one day off ...
Ill try and get myself to the point that I'm able to do 11 or more in a row so that I can start the push up challenge in WK 1 column 2 or preferably column 3. I feel happier with a buffer as I can drop a column if I struggle
on a MASSIVE plus side I can see the start of lady muscles:D:D 0 -

I'm quoting myself because I made a mistake yesterday. I did the level 2 set instead of level 3...I wondered why I was able to do these with no trouble until the last set. Duh. I will continue with level 3 tomorrow and make up for missing pushups.0 -
Just finished week 2 day 2 level 2 - 10,12,9,9,13 - 90 seconds. I had to take a quick break after 8 in the final set but only about 15 seconds0
-
week 2 day 3 level 3 for a total of 81 pushups. Felt like my form was going to **** after about 17 in the last set of 20. Arms are spent.
This may sound weird but I feel like I'm even working my backside by doing these??? I've never correlated pushups with a butt workout...it's great!0 -
Week 2 day 2 - 44 military style, although the last set of 25 I had pauses to take a breath. Abs were trembling. Small of my back aching.0

I'm up to 15 regular pushups and the rest are on my knees. Hopefully I'll be all regular by the end of the competition.0

I'm right there with you! I have to start over because I feel ill two weeks ago. It's not until now I can get back to working out! I'll be doing my retest in the morning and I'm back at it! But from what I can remember you improved a great deal...WTG0
