    I completed W1. D1 on set 2. Hubby added an extra 6 to that for me so I did:

    6
    6
    6
    4
    4
    5

    I'd cut his *kitten* off for that :)

    Kudos to everyone for getting in a kick *kitten* day 1!!!!!! How on earth I'll ever be able to do 100 is beyond me, but, here's to week 1, day 2 coming up!

    Now, who's sore? I'm not too bad - yet, anyway - hard to differentiate what is turbo fire sore and what is push up sore and it may set in later. :)

    I'm sore ... but I also did NROLFW yesterday and increased my weight so the shoulder soreness may be attributed to that ... I'm not sure ... either way .. I am feeling it today.

    Day 1 is DONE!!! SET 1: 6 SET 2: 6 SET 3: 4 SET 4: 4 SET 5: 10 =) I actually surprised myself. I will note I did knee push ups. At the end of this challenge I will start another challenge and do them military way.

    rather than doing em on your knees you should do them on hands and feet but put your hands one a step, bench, wall, whatever so that your body is at an incline. It will make em more challenging and engage your core--knee push ups don't do much for core strength and you won't get better as quickly.

    Great job on your sets!

    Thanks for your input and support I'll give that a try tomorrow.

    Never thought I'd say I did 75 push ups in such a short period of time!

    Day 1 is done and I am having a meltdown. I don't need to do girly pushups because I can do PLENTY of those. I need to do full. So, I'm on the bottom step, right? KILLING my wrists. Maybe I'll go to a higher step. Just give me some kind of feedback folks because I am RIPE to quit a challenge.

    I'm on level 1 and did Day 1 in full wrist pain!

    Use a higher incline, see how that feels. Just do what YOU can do but keep going - that's the only way to build the strength! :)

    Have you tried using fists instead of flat palms against the floor? That might help alleviate some of that wrist discomfort.
