W3/D1: 10/12/7/7/10
Ow. That is all.
Dude. I hear ya. :sad:0 -
How's everybody else doing?
As I did my max test yesterday (41) I thought I'd take today off in the hope that I'll be fresher tomorrow but just noticed 41 puts me into col 3 in week 5 so will play things by ear and may drop into col 2.0 -
How's everybody else doing?
I did my test yesterday. Managed 31 (ow). My initial test was 21, so, is that like a 44% increase in 2 weeks?:drinker:
Based on the schedule, I'll be doing Week 5, Col 1, Day 1 tomorrow. I think I can manage that, but I see I'll jump to 8 sets on Day 2 and 3!:noway: Going to be an interesting week of push ups!:bigsmile:0 -

I make it 47.6 % but it's been a while since I went to school
And yes, week 5 looks cruel - good luck!
And good luck to everybody else in their quest

Ok, Week5, Day1, Col3 was not a good thing to attempt with a hangover!
Just did the first set in col3 then moved to col2 36/35/25/22/35 (153). Last 2 of the final set were done modified (on knees). And joy of joys day 2 is 8 (eight) sets!0 -

Week 5 has 5 sets on Day 1, and 8 sets on Days 2 & 3, even for Column 1, which I'm in for Week 5. Also, remember, you'll take a new maximum test at the end of Week 4 to see which column you'll be in for Week 5. Just because you're in one column for one week doesn't mean you stay in it the week after a new test (I dropped from Col 2 to Col 1).
I'll be doing Col 1 tonight, so you'll see what that set looks like. It's not as demanding as Col 3 or 2. *whew*0 -
Week 3, Day 1. I'm following Week 5, Col 1, Day 1:
17/19/15/15/29 (max) Total = 95
Day 2 is going to be 8 sets!0 -
Week 1, Day 3: I have an embarrassing lack of upper-body strength... but I have already noticed a a gain in my ability to push-up! Yay!0

Nothing to be embarrassed about, we all have to start somewhere, right? I'm starting to see some changes too, which is...like, kinda the point, right? :laugh:0 -
