What were your results and which column will you be following?

(I'll do mine tonight when I get home and report back then)

    Just finished my initial test. I got 30, so I'll be following level 4!

    I think I'll plan to do my days on three of my crossfit days... I'm too nervous to take less than 2 rest days a week! (I'll likely to Mon, Tues, Fri).

    I'm excited!

    Pre crossfit I could MAYBE have squeaked out 12 haha. We do them a lot in our WODs and even warm ups (broad jump burpees. gross). I just made myself do the "male" style push ups (I don't like calling them that, I just don't know how else to explain it) from the start. It totally sucked in the beginning, but I think it was the right choice for me. (I'm NOT saying I think that everyone should go that route, just was best for me.)

    I did my test last night and only got 8 (although they were the regular ones not girl ones)... I feel really weak now compared to her 30!! I am Level 1.

    Don't feel bad, I'm thinking 7 for me, but going to try tomorrow when my arms aren't so tired from everything else I did today! :)

    I did the test just for grins tonight and eeked out 16 good pushups ... I got to 19 but the last three were P I T I F U L so I'm going with 16 .. which ranks me at Level 3 and when I looked on the chart to see how many I have to do I damn near puked. All I want for Christmas is to make it through this!!!

    I may have misunderstood the directions, I thought for the fitness test you had to do regular pushups not modifications....cause I can't do any "real" pushups so I'm starting in column 1. Which is fine by me, I think this is the perfect challenge to hold me accountable and get me started to really building upper and even work on my core strength. I'm excited....as yall can tell I am NOWHERE near the fitness level most of you are on, but I'm gonna give this my all. :)

    After reading the link to 100 push ups You can do modified , With that said I am going to do the ones using the counter with legs stretched back , I have been doing those and they don't hurt my back and I can do 12 I will still start Level 2 . I think this will be better for my fitness level I want to stay with this and until strong enough to do the military style.

    I did 8. Tried for number 9 and could not push myself back up, but held a nice low-ground plank pose, lol! I'm working with column 2 doing 25 push ups the first day, whew!
