    I'm in too!! I started doing this as an app on my phone a while ago. I got up to 16 and then something happened...not sure what and I stopped. I will start again. AWESOME!!!

    I did this for a few weeks and then started to struggle. I just did my initial test over again and was going to restart this week. My starting is now 14 (it was 6 the last time). I really like this challenge, and I really do think it works. I'd love the company to restart this. :)

    What a coincidence! I just started today - and learned that my arm/chest strength is UTTERLY PATHETIC. But I'm starting off with modified pushups on my knees and supplementing them with standing wall pushups (with my feet ~3ft from the wall or so), just so I can build up a little more strength without totally exhausting myself.

    I'd be happy even if I could just do 10! If I can get halfway, to 50, I'll be over the moon. For some reason my legs have always been really strong but my arms are useless. It's time to change that!

    I would love to get in on this, however I would definitely need to do the modified version of the push-ups, if that doesn't discount me from joining would love to do this challenge.

    good lord no! read the challenge at http://hundredpushups.com/index.html. it's a progression. at the end of the 6 weeks you'll be able to do 100 consecutively.

    I was just going to keep a spreadsheet... Keep everyone's names on it. Then just keep posing on this thread.

    Haha, too funny. Don't worry, my initial test was only 4!

    what if we can already do 100+ push ups?

    50 lbs vest?

    I do weighted pushups, it's one of the most underrated exercises in my opinion, so are weighted pullups
