Last week I missed 2 days so I'm back on this again this week.  Of course once again I did not print up the weeks schedule so I winged it this morning!

Push-ups: 15, 13, 13, 15, 19 = 75

Someone get Abbie an assistant

That would be great!  Especailly one with photography skills!

Week 1 - Day 3

8-10-7-7-12 =44. Getting there. 

Week 3 - Day 2

20, 25, 15, 15, 30 = 105

WEEK4, DAY2 14,16,12,12,20(max)

Pushing, pushing, pushing!

Happychick - 2008-11-14 11:46 AM Ok, I have to ask...how long do you rest between sets?  Do you do exactly what it calls for or take longer?  Do you think taking a longer rest would make a huge difference come time to do all 100 simultaneously?  I admit there have been days when I do them while getting ready and have "forgotten" that I'm supposed to get down and push so there has been like a 3 minute "rest" between sets. 

It says on the top of the...chart..whatever you call it. 60sec on day one of the week 90secs on day two and 120secs on day three.

What I need to know is for the progress tests, do I rest a day before and after a make the test before I continue the workout plan?

Week 2, Day 3;

12, 13, 10, 10, 15= 60

I moved down to the second column today and still struggled. I guess i'll see where I stand when I do my progress test tomorrow. I have a feeling it'll take a week or two long tha six. But this is a fun challenge, I dont care if it takes me til next June i'm gonna do 100!!!

That's the spirit!!! Go you!!!!

Week 4 Day 3

16/18/13/13/20 = 80

I'll do my assessment on Sunday...I'm anxious to see what column the fun begins with next week!

WEEK4, DAY3: 16,18,13,13,23(max)

That was hard today. On Monday I am planning on the progress test and then I will see, if I can move on into week 5.... I could not lift my arms over my head shortly after the last set.

Week 3, Day 3 - 22, 30, 20, 20, 28 = 120

I barely squeezed out the last few in the final set.  It was really tough today for some reason.

Oh, this looks like fun.  I'd like to join in.  I did the initial test yesterday and got 33.  But being an old fart, I think I'll start on week 2 tomorrow. 

You guys who are so far along are awesome!

I did my first progress test today and I was only able to manage 24. I just don't know what I am doing wrong. I mean I try...and I ...wait...did I just to 24???Holy crap 2 weeks ago I couldn't do 15!!! There's hope for me after all!

Oh and welcome to the madness Kroner and Jashac!!
