    I add push-ups in before chest workout days....so i don't exactly keep to the program days. Last day completed is below:

    Week 5 Day 1.
    Max 70

    Ok, so I didn't die....lol....thats a point in the plus column.

    Now don't laugh ladies, I know you're all doing twice if not 3 to 4 times more than I'm doing.

    End of the week - W1D3.

    4
    5
    4
    4
    Max - 8

    So even in a single week, I can see the tiniest bit of improvement over my initial test. Original test I barely got 5 and so at the end of 1 week I see a 3 rep increase after only 3 days of doing it. Nothing to write home about of course but every little bit helps

    W1D3 completed. So I have been combining the sit-up and squats also. This makes a great part of my workout. Really notice a difference today in all areas. Thanks for starting this thread I am really enjoying this challange.

    Knocked out 25 (level 4) after I was logging in my 5k run and noticed this message board and the website. Interested to see how long I'll keep this up.

    Knocked out 75 pushups as part of my CrossFit workout. That will have to suffice for W3D1.

    Just finished W3D1

    15-20-15-15-15 (I was supposed to do 25 on the last rep, but I couldn't. I literally collapsed.)

    I slacked last week....actually I didn't really slack since I am training for a 5k this weekend....but I did slack on the pushups!

    W2D3

    So second week completed and no slacking.....at least so far...lol......

    5-7-5-5-max 11.

    So I'm still in single digits basically but I have doubled the number of pushups possible for me in only 2 weeks. I'm doing my second exhaustion test tomorrow on Saturday and will log that in when completed.

    I did also start the 200 squats program the beginning of my second week of the push-ups but due to some serious knee pain, I think I'm going to begin that a little more intermittently.

    Hey missjacki......did that chair technique I mentioned for pull-ups work for you? Or did you try something different?
