Hey all! NSV for me today! I improved on my PT test! After a week of strep/flu I only improved on one BUT it was great :D

I got 58 pushups in 2 minutes! Straight through, no break, and not on my knees

Test 1: (Aug) 23 pushups
Test 2: (Sept) 37
Test 3: (Oct) 58!!!!

Max out for girls is 42 so it is quite an accomplishment!

You can do anything you set your mind to <3

    Yay you! I am SO proud! I am also glad you chose to focus on the positive, rather than settle on the other stuff. You rock!

    Well done!! I bet I couldn't do 10, much less 58 and I was in the Army.

    Hi! Im trying to increase my push ups but feel like I am not getting any stronger. Do you have any tips? or a routine you do to increase your numbers? Thank you!

    What we do is 60 pushups 2 times a PT workout (about 20 min apart) Do as many as you can without using your knees if you have to. I just slowly built up to a good number :]
