Can we collectively reach 100,000 press-ups/push-ups? Who's up for the challenge...


I've started us off by doing 20.

Total so far = 20

Game on!

EDIT: the 100,000 target is a collective one so we add all our pushups together!! Not 100,000 each!

Any form of pushup counts if you struggle to perform the full range of motion, so everyone can join in!

    I'll try it. I need to build up that upper body strength, so it may take a while!

    Interesting challenge.. . Add another 20.

    Total = 40.

    Perhaps, various push ups should count. On knees, against the wall. That way more people can contribute?

    Great idea! I totally agree - any forn of push up you can do gets added for anyone who struggles to do the full range of motion.

    I will attempt 50 when I get home later!
