I am going to be starting the program today, and want to bring as many of you with me that are willing.
Check out the site above and let me know if you're interested. I will post my results this evening after I'm done with my 5k.

Also, I will be using the "Perfect Pushup" contraption that I purchased from GNC. Finally need to put that thing to good use.

    Oh my gosh, this is exactly what I've been looking for!!!!!!

    I'm doing the C25K, but I wanted something for my walking only days - that would help strengthen my upper body. I'm a single mum, and can't afford gym equipment or a gym membership so this is just perfect!!!!!!!!

    I'm in. I may have to repeat weeksr, and I have a floating clavicle so I'm not sure how that will effect it (I'm going in to this figuring it won't effect it at all!) So we'll see!

    Thank you for this!

    Geeze. Did Initial Test. Can not do regular pushups. Even one. :noway:

    Did 6 using the recommended alternative knee push up. So, I'll be starting using that style using the second column, which looks doable. Boy. Maybe one day I'll be doing the regular push up though!

    I'm in I have had the program printed out for a while and have been wanting to start. I just finished a triathlon yesterday and all the training that went with it. So this week I have to decide my new training program. The hundred push ups sound like a good component.

    i'll give it a shot...i was never the greatest at push ups so it would be cool to change that. i'll try it out at the gym this afternoon. also, one of my friends has the perfect pushup thing and loves it so good luck with that!

    Fun! I want to do this!

    I just did the initial test, and could only manage 5 without getting sloppy. I guess I'll start out at rank 1! I used to do 25 to 50 in high school aerobics class...well, I guess this is my chance to get that upper body strength back!

    Thanks for posting this!

    I'm with you Brother!

    I started this challenge once before but fell out when I went started packing and moving...I don't know why life changes always throw a wrench in my exercise time...I want to learn how to be one of those people who workout no matter what's going on in their life.

    does the 'wall pushups' count to?

    i can't do a regular pushup to save my damn life, and i've tried the knee ones, but those put way to much pressure on my wrists (i have bad wrists, ankles and knees....i'm falling apart, lol)

    if wall ones count i'm in!

    I'd say go for it. Build up strength slowly. Once you've built up strength from the wall ones, try the knee ones.

    I'm in too! I completed level one "girly" pushups a month ago...time to see if I can do the medium range. Still girly style tho! No where near strong enough to do the real thing...

    Just finished the initial test. 34 no nonsense pushups before collapsing halfway on the 35th. Alright. I start week three then.. Should I start later today when I'm feeling less tired? Tomorrow? Is there a significance to when you officially start?
