^ Challenge * i get too excited to spell sometimes*
I have the free 100 pushups app program on my phone and its also online you can google it. its a program that can get basically anyone to do 100 pushups in one sitting. :):) I have to share this because the first time i tried i could do 7 boy pushups and lastnight. 2 weeks into my program i did 60 :) Gosh do i ever love this. at the end of 6 weeks ill post my before and after pictures. any one is welcome to join me in this! its awesome! its only a few minutes 3 times a week and the improvement is so drastic i feel great.

    Wow - well done!

    I can do maybe 2 boy push ups - I am a weakling!

    My phone doesn't do apps. :sad:

    Can't imagine being able to do 100 push ups ever!

    I'm definitely doing this & sharing with Facebook! I would say from experience, I'm in rank #2 (5-10 decent man push-ups)

    I started this 2 weeks ago, and could only do 13 at first. I started on Level 3. I am supposed to take my second test today or tomorrow, but the 2nd week, day 3, I did 25 in my last set, and that was after doing 4 previous sets, so a HUGE improvement. I'll let you know how many I do. Recovering from a 10 mile run right now... :)

    I only did 27 in my exhaustion test. I find that first set to be one of the hardest though. However, an improvement from 13 to 27 in 2 weeks is not bad. I'm pretty happy!

    Love it! I'm in too!! My personal trainer has been on at me about my push ups lately. At the moment I can do about 23 boy push ups without stopping but would love to be able to do 100 :)

    Thanks so much for sharing this! I didn't know such a thing existed. I started doing Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and when it came time to do the pushups I just pretty much collapsed on the floor... I have such terrible upper body strength. I think having a program to work with would really help me! I'm at least willing to give it a shot.
