Well done you and everybody else on this journey
am actually looking forward to tomorrow and 8 sets as the first 7 are lower reps (and if I tell myself that enough times I may even believe it lol). 0 -
Weekn3, day 1: 14/18/14/14/max - 230
-
Week5 Day2 Col2
18/18/20/20/14/14/16/30 (150) The Max rep only met Col 1's minimum so will move down to col1 for Day3 I think.
Interestingly in the previous day I totaled 153 pushups so it would appear less sets and more reps is easier?0 -
Just saw this and figure I will join in
today I did 12/12/12/12
This was with a medicine ball under each hand and under my feet.

Week5 Day2 Col2
18/18/20/20/14/14/16/30 (150) The Max rep only met Col 1's minimum so will move down to col1 for Day3 I think.

It's interesting to me how it progresses. I think the adding of the extra sets is to help with endurance building. Col 1 is way lower than the other columns for Week 5, IMHO.
Speaking of....Week 3, Day 2 complete. Following the Week 5, Col 1, Day 2 plan: 10/10/13/13/10/10/9/27 (max) = 102 total.0 -
argh!!! I forgot to do my pushups! will do tomorrow.0

Dam I forgot too but it was Valentines so I'm not sure it would have gone down too well if I'df buggered off for a bit to have a workout!!0

)
(But really - medicine balls? Looks like we've got a newb who's trying to make the rest of us look bad...:grumble: *harumph* :laugh: )0 -

Hello Hello,
I'm a little out of sync because of the time I took out being sick but today I did week three, day 2: 20/25/15/15/max - 30
Phew! It was pretty tough! 30 is the most that I have done at the end of a session so pretty pleased with that, yay!0 -
Well done you!...30 is the most that I have done at the end of a session so pretty pleased with that, yay!
Week 3 Day 3 Col 1 following the week 5 plan. 13,13,15,15,12,12,10, 33 max (Tot = 123). Not overly happy with dropping to col1 for day 3 and still maxed out at 33. Another exhaustion test Sun/Mon and that will tell me if I need to do week 5 again or move on to Week 6 (46 minimum pushups to start it).
Enjoy peeps 0 -
Congrats to everyone! Progress!
Week 3, Day 3 - yay, made it another week.
Following Week 5, Col 1, Day 3: 13/13/15/15/12/12/10/31 (max). Total = 121.
Tomorrow is my exhaustion test. I have a feeling I'll be repeating Week 5. Hope to get into Col 2, though.0 -
Will do mine tomorrow as well then so lets both aim for Col 2Tomorrow is my exhaustion test. I have a feeling I'll be repeating Week 5. Hope to get into Col 2, though. 0 -
Just completed the end of week 5 exhaustion test and now think doing it after a 5 mile jog wasn't my wisest ever decision lol.
46 max which puts me in either Col 1 of week 6 (just) or Col3 if I repeat week 5 - shall have a think in my day off tomorrow.0 -
Completed today week 4 day 2
14/16/12/12/18 total 72
Next day is 80
Woop woop0 -
First day of week 4!
Week 4/Day 1: 12/14/11/10/16
Barely squeezed the last one off...serves me right for doing an Insanity workout immediately before (that was not well planned).0 -
Started week 3 again today.
W3/D1: 10/12/7/7/180 -
This looks like such fun
pushups are my favourite because I can do them in my room when I remember to exercise, instead of rushing to the pool and having to get changed. What a pain. Will start officially tomorrow! 0 -

Have not done exhaustion test. Was out of town all day Sunday, plus training for a 5K....tonight's training for that wiped me out (final week of a couch-to-5k program - 30 min run).
I'm going to go ahead and repeat Week 5, Col 1 starting tomorrow. I feel sure my exhaustion test would've kept me in that column or barely Col 2. With this week's cardio so difficult, I don't want to kill myself on push ups, too. Col 1 should be a good enough challenge (it sure was last week!).0 -

And yes, at the start this was treated as an auxiliary exercise but now it's getting serious and more rest is required before/after.
Week 6, Day 1, Col 1. 25/30/20/15/40 (130). The last 5 of the final set literally had me on my knees but preferred that to not finishing the minimum maximum (how's that for an oxymoron!). I can see me spending quite a few weeks on week 6.0 -
Week 2 Day 1: Definitely getting a bit easier... but that final set was difficult... for sure felt the days of rest in between week 1 and 2. But yay! so far so good.
Max Done: 10 in final set0 -
