Sounds like maybe you did too much this season? I'd prefer to do less racing and more training. This way you are totally fresh and ready to give it your all in the two or so races you do race. I've never seen this distance before, just sprints. It almost looks like an Olmypic distance but a bit shorter. Congrats on your…

Wow! I'm totally impressed by what I'm seeing everyone do here! Great job everyone! I finished week 1, day 2, rank 3 for a total of 53 pushups today. On the first day and in my initial test my abs were spent, I'm passed the abs and now my arms are feeling it intensely. I just know my arm balances in yoga are going to be so…

Thanks, I've never done a challenge like this before and I like it!

week 1, day 1, rank 3- finished with 12 pushups at the end. Arms and abs burning! total pushups today=52

Philips529 thanks for putting me on the right track! I looked up the website you listed and boy, this is not at all what I thought this challenge was about. But, now that I know, I'm up for the challenge! I did my initial test and was humbled to say the least in rank 3! ug. Then I did 20 squats just to feel better, then…

just completed 10 more (plan to do 30 today in sets of 10)...after a weekend of not doing one! They are certainly getting easier...I might have to add in a pushup twist like on fingertips or lifting one leg or something. Nice work everyone!! Total=40

It just occured to me that you are following a plan...no plan here, just trying to do 100 "yogic" pushups as quickly as possible (2-3 days). a yogic pushup=lie on stomach and place hands under shoulders--elbows back--not out to sides. I think the elbow position is the major difference, I'm lowering to about 2 or 3 inches…

10 more just because I have some time... Total=30

Yes!!! that's what I'm talking about!!

I am sooooo surprised that you were the only one in your age group...where did you race? Are you racing with elite athletes or something? Because with those times where I live and race, you would be no where near the rear of the pack...at all. Congrats on your successes!

Sweet!!

Alright--here we go! 10 this morning and 10 during my conference call...ha ha ha! total to date=20

K-great, I'll go there. Thanks!

Where do we report the number of pushups? I'm seeing a lot of posts so I'm not sure who started the challenge... thanks! going to do 10 right now!

Congrats! I just want to state here that sizes have changed a lot since most of us starting shoping for ourselves in the early 90's. I used to be a solid 8 and now without doing anything different, I'm a 6. Most of my pants that fit me back then, still do (the ones that have survived!). But, I think the pants manufacturers…

Yes, changing up your routine will help. Do you know what burns a crap load of calories and is fun? Spin classes. I take them on and off on purpose to challenge myself. And, even though I exercise 5-6 days a week (run, bike, swim and Yoga) I still find muscles I'm not using when I take a spin class. The point is to have…

I posted a similar topic on FRS. It's good, and has very low calories but tastes "chemical-y." I'm interested in the responses here.

Agreed with what is said here. In the winter when i can't get on the bike or run when it's snowing, I get up early and get on the bike trainer in my house, which makes early am workouts easier, but my preference is to workout during lunchtime or just after work 5-6. You will still burn the calories either way. just…

Thanks, looking forward to your workout posts!

I am not a teacher but also have 30 minute lunches. I pride myself in being uber organized to make my lunch work for me. running or biking on my lunch and eating at my desk when I get back...not sure if that is an option for you or not. half the time I'm eating the new raw bars that you see everywhere. they pack a caloric…
