    Initial Test results:

    Squats = 15
    Sit Ups=14 (I remember when I used to be able to do 84 of these man I'm out of shape)
    Push ups= 4 (just for the heck of it)
    Dips...I'll come back with those. The only stable surface I have is outside and it's late so I have to wait until tomorrow.

    Wow - looks like we have a great group!! I'm cutting off the list now, and it looks like there will be about 50 of us. I will start a new thread tonight and will post a link here. That will start with info on check-in dates, how I'll calculate rankings, etc. Feel free to keep posting test results and measurements in the meantime.

    Looking forward to it!!

    Since I can't figure out how to edit my previous post with my other test results. My final result for the Dips was 2. So I have a long way to go to reach 150. But it'll be a fun road I think.

    When you're doing dips, are you supposed to primarily feel it in your shoulders? I don't actually feel it in my triceps so it's making me wonder if I'm doing it wrong. :\

    Edit: nevermind... I tried them on a different, more firm surface and definitely felt it in my triceps. So I was doing them wrong. lol
