I have literally never been able to do an actual push up in my life not even as a scrawny kid, so today instead of doing them on the wall, I thought I would try and do one on the floor, and I did three of them! It's not a lot of them, but I still did it, and my first plank too!

    What are some of your small NSV's that you thought would never be possible?

    I do "modified" pushups often...I do "girlie" pushups! I can do about 30 before I die...!!

    Good for you! I do them off a bar at the gym. Working my way down to the floor.

    My (odd) NSV lately has been changing in the locker room at the gym. I used to go in the bathroom and change but now I finally feel comfortable enough to change in the locker room. Mind you, it's like quickest you'll ever see someone change pants, jeans off, yoga pants on, in record time lol

    I figured my first goal is ten real push ups, but my ultimate goal right now is fifty!
