    Hey everyone - I will either get my day 1 in tonight when I get off work, or I will post early tomorrow. I am starting with my initial test from when I began this two weeks ago which puts me in column two.

    I so so want it!
    So we start with Initial Test today?
    & Week 1 this week?

    I took the initial test and I got 5 real push-ups. So I will start in the 1st section!

    When do you want us to report back on how we did that week?

    I'm in too! I started this a couple of weeks ago, but then went out of town so I'm starting with Week 2 and will also do Week 2 next week so I'm in line with everyone else. Before starting this program, I had been attempting real pushups (as opposed to girl pushups) every few days or so and could only do 1-2. I've already improved SOO much and now get up to 12 straight. The concept of doing sets with rest time in between each set is really a great idea. I believe this will work and we will be push up experts in a few weeks if we stick to it! :smile:

    OMG! I just did 11! I had no idea I could do that many... Thank you, Jillian!

    It's 7.15 am here, so I'll start the program tonight, I think. 12+ hours should be enough for recovery, right? Don't want to get too behind you guys!

    There's a group of us that started this a few weeks ago - it does work - we've all improved so far!!

    For the question of how to all keep up with each other's progress, we've got a facebook group which makes it alot easier.

    http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/home.php?sk=group_224873117538676&ap=1

    Not saying that you all have to join ours as we're in week 4, although you can if you wish, but just a thought - you could start up your own group on facebook!

    Good luck - and don't forget, you can buy the t.shirt when you've completed it! They're great, I can't wait!

    Did Week 1, Day 1, in the 3rd column, and did what it said I should with a final max. of 11.5 pushups.

    I'm lending my 30DS to a friend so I hope I'll be better at pushups by the time I get it back.:smile:

    Week 1 Day 1 Column 1 managed just fine today doing real push ups but only managed 4 in the final set. I know I could do more doing girl push ups but then its not so much of a chalenge. I've also done 30 mins on the Wii and I'm now off to do 30DS if I dont collapse

    I'm on a half vacation this week and forgot to post on Monday. I did week 1, day 1, on Monday - level 3 but girlie style. I have not done my pushups for today yet, I'll get to those this afternoon. I took a couple of measurments of my upper arms (holding out to side so all the fat hangs down - lovely), waist, and my chest. I am going to try not to measure again until the end of the program in 6 weeks.

    Day 1:
    Arm = 14"
    Chest = 38"
    Waist = 34.5" (not sure if girl style pushups will widdle this down, but we will see!)
    Total reps = 45 + extra 4
    Difficulty scale of 1 to 5, 5 being most difficult = 3

    I have a gentle ache (a bit like a hum, if that makes sense) in my upper arms, back and top abs. I guess that means it's working! I look forward to my next go tomorrow.

    I'm calculating girly pushups! I did 5 brag worthy pushups and 12 cute girly ones perfectly before starting to slack so I am going to use that number.
