Hundred Push Up Challenge

AshnRobo · December 2011

Since so many people are interested in doing this I thought I would start an accountability thread.

http://hundredpushups.com/

My Initial Test: 0 completed

Yesterday: I did 6 on my max! 16 total

Today: Goal of 16. I think I can rock it. (I'm on week 1 day 2)

I am SO doing this when I get home!! Can't wait.... I am so glad you shared this Ash!!

Who else is going to do this?

I think I am going to do the push up, squats, dips and sit up challenges.... but I think I will start one this week, one next week and so on....

Great job Ash! Keep it up!!!!

AlliJae · December 2011

Yay! I am doing this when I get home. I will post my results later

Glad we are in it together

Shanee18 · December 2011

I'm doing this starting when I get home from work.

chelseakopperud · December 2011

Is everyone doing the push up challenge? Is anyone doing any of the other ones?

I am going to do them all (except pull ups)... and I am going to start a new one every 2 weeks so that I dont try to do too much at once! Anyone else?

Shanee18 · December 2011

I will do them all as well with you Chelsea! I might not enjoy the squats, but I could definitely use them. We will be so in shape for our weddings!

Yay!!! Sounds fabulous. It will be awesome to have someone going through the same stuff to help me stay on track. Kind of like workout buddies, except halfway across the country, haha.

I'll do other ones too as we get closer.

Me too Chelsea!! I'm with you!

chelseakopperud · December 2011

woo hooo!! I am glad we are going to all be able to keep each other accountable! I talked FI into it too. Although when I do my initial test tonight- I am going to make him leave the room. Maybe Ill do some of him during week 3 or 4 haha!

Sarah0335 · December 2011

I'll do it with you girls! I have been increasing my working out and this is another thing I would like to add on.

Danidawn20 · December 2011

I'm going to do it. I use the perfect push up once in a while, so hopefully I can use it with this

franklissa · December 2011

I'm interested in doing it with y'all as well

tania0930 · December 2011

I'm going to do them all too! I might not post as frequently on the accountability because every day of my life is different schedule and time wise! But I'll be doing it

Yay! I'm excited

I also completed 0 on my initial test (which I JUST did). So what I'm wondering is...if I can't even do ONE push up now, how am I supposed to do 4 sets of 2 and 3 tomorrow? Are you modifying your pushups until you gain strength?

Posted by tania0930[/QUOTE]

i would do a modified push up until you can do a regular one. then start the program :)

chelseakopperud · December 2011

I just did my initial test and did 6. More than I thought I could!!

I am excited to do "day 1" on Monday!

Who else did their initial test today?

Posted by tania0930[/QUOTE]

Yeah I'm doing modified pushups until I complete the program. Then I'm gonna start over and try to do a perfect push up. I'd like to stress how weak my arms are!

TeamMoriarty · December 2011

so it's saturday morning, and don't know who will come back to this thread-but i'm going to join in too. just did my initial test- 23 push-ups! to be fair, we did push-ups every night in rehearsal for the show i just closed (it was about rock climbing) and even though i've been done for a few weeks, i've still been climbing a little and working out-glad to see i still have some residual strength. i will do as the site suggests and begin the challenge on monday-let's go!

Posted by chelseakopperud[/QUOTE]

<div>I did mine as well, but forgot to post! For my initial test I did 12. Honestly, I was kind of disappointed; I kept thinking back to high school when I was so in shape! Crazy how my body has changed since then. :(</div>

57rainbows · December 2011

I want to join! I couldn't do the test yesterday because I had a baby strapped to me (nanny) so I tried the squats instead. It's a 200 squats program, and I busted out 150.... so I won't be trying that program. My legs hurt *soo* much today though! Ouch.

Pushups will be a different matter. I'm much much weaker on top than in my legs, typical of a woman! I think I'd be able to do a few in a row the way I've tried before, which is not going quite all the way down. This talks about going to the floor each time... does that mean part of you touches the floor, or you're flat on the floor with no weight on your arms every single time? Yikes! Might test today. But FI's here and he's in the military and he can do 60-65 in one minute, so... lol. It's okay, he's very encouraging and gentle!

Anyone else going to try the app?? It's only $.99 I think I'll try it.
