    Yes as I do this for warm ups 50 x 2... Never tried 100 in a row though, would be a fun challenge!


    Now pull ups are a different story :laugh:

    There is also an android phone app that I've been using to get to 100 pushups. :D So far its been a great app, right on track with my ability!

    I bought a book of that program once then took it back! Part of me wants to and part of me really, really doesn't.

    I like the push up app too! I'm up to 300 in 30 mins or so.
  • I could last year when I played badminton. My coach made us do 10 pushups every time we missed a smash. I wasn't the greatest at returning smashes... I think my pushup ability improved more than my smashes did, but I'm sure that with a little practise I could get back to where I was a year ago.
  • This is pretty cool...like a lot of people I too am doing P90x, except I am shooting for 3-5 days a week for workouts. I am two weeks into that and just did the test and collapsed at 40. Looking forward to getting to 100. I am starting at week 3 column 3...here we go.

    I got to week 4 of that program and then repeated week 3 and 4 a couple of times... More of a mental block that stopped me getting to week 5 I think.

    At the time, I was doing P90x at the same time. I think I was maxing out somewhere near 50 consecutive. Could probably manage about 35 now I reckon.
