First real pushup!

I've been working on upper body strength for the last few weeks. In the past I've never been good at pushups - even at my best, I could only do them from my knees. Today I decided to try "real" pushups from the toes, expecting to fail. But I DID FIVE!
Okay, 5 pushups is not a lot for most people. But for me it's such an improvement. I am so proud right now!
