Form was bad, but I lifted from the absolute ground. It sucks to be so weak.

    Sweet! I was so happy when I did my first push up I wanted to do a cartwheel but still can't do one of those. May it be your first push of many ;-)

    It took me a year to do just one. I have 300 pound friend who can do five. But now I can do one! I did it!

    Woot! I remember when I did my first one...now I can do about 5-10 at a time (when my shoulder isn't done in)

    Started to think about all my family and friends who can't do 1 clean push-up and this took on a whole new perspective. This is a big deal. Congrats !
