Master 1675  Suwanee, Ga. | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! saling4 - 2007-12-27 11:45 PM DONE!!!!!!!!! 2570/2500 Pushups 6035/6000 Crunches May have more tomorrow, but I have reached my 3rd goal increase. I have not been good at guessing how I will do on these dang challenges.
GREAT JOB!! I have 2 more sessions to go and I will make it. One thing for sure...this challenge has made it easier to "push away" from the table at some of the meals over the holidays. Steve |

Master 2005 South Florida | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! I have been slacking a bit through the holidays...plus, when I inrcreased to 3 X 35 pushups, my shoulders and left elbow were feeling it, so I backed off a bit. All seems well now. I have to add it all up to see how far short I am  I was planning on going to dec. 31, but if we stop today, I'll just go till then and maybe make up the difference! |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! I'm thinking the 31st. Gives you a bit more time to hit those high numbers. |

Expert 715 Twin Cities | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! Hey, everyone... three more workout days (counting today) to go with our challenge! I am rooting for everyone who still has more to do, and my congratulations to those who have met or exceeded their goals. I completed my challenge this morning... might just sneak in a few more of each on Monday, just to satisfy my overachiever self... Push-ups = 600 [4500 = 100% ]

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! Great job Dcoss and Yoganerd. Makes you wonder where you'll be if you keep it up doesn't it? |

Master 2005 South Florida | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! ok, went back and added my totals up...lsaw lots of "will do abs later" in the latter parts fo the month. oops..still doing way more than I would normally do, so it's all good. As of 12/28: Pushups - 2035/2310...only 300 to go, so I'm on track there. Abs - 5720 / 8820...3,000+ to go. HA. That would mean I have to do 1,000+ abs a day the next 3 days. That's absurd. I will do a resonable amount and just call myself a loser |

Expert 715 Twin Cities | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! saling4 - 2007-12-29 9:27 AM Great job Dcoss and Yoganerd. Makes you wonder where you'll be if you keep it up doesn't it? It has definitely become a habit, which I have incorporated into my plan for January... nice to actually feel my triceps! |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! Definitely works those Triceps. Mimi's a loser. Just had to say it at least once. I'm kidding of course (please don't hurt me). With the holidays and all I am surprised that so many met the goal set. Also, How many people in normal life would commit to this challenge? |

| Member 7 El Cajon, CA | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! OK...so I'm failing my first challenge miserably. However, this is still 100% more than I would have done had I not entered. So thank you for organizing this. Goal: pushups: 1061 crunches: 7100 Current: pushups: 580 crunches: 3850 Final: pushups: 680 crunches: 4400 My stomach feels flatter (minus the huge layer of post-baby fat on the front...but that's a weight loss issue). My triceps are definitely stronger (I couldn't even do 10 pushups in a row when I started...now I can do 25). |

Master 1675 Suwanee, Ga. | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! Thanks Brian for organizing this. It has been hard to cvomplete but GREAT as a part of my workouts.

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! Robyn, It is the Triing that makes it worth while. If you have gone where you haven't gone before than you were successful (unless your Mimi, she's a loser). Reno9 - Thanks for noticing the sig line. I get tired of everyone blaming everyone for their own shortcomings. Get over it and get better...geeesh. This is not directed at people here, I love the people here. I have found that on this site people try and try again to get better. I can pick on Mimi cause she is too far away to hurt me (too bad). Plus the fact her avatar just looks like she can be picked on... |

Veteran 242 Reading, Berkshire (UK) | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! I have totally fallen off the wagon over Christmas, so i have no idea where I even got to with my goals. BUT, doing this challenge felt terrific - I've noticed the difference (the wrong way) since I stopped and I'm determined to keep it in the plan going forward. Happy New Year everyone! |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: PUSH UPS AND ABS CHALLENGE FOR DECEMBER!! Do keep after it gilley. Even if it is a few sets a day, morning and evening, it will help alot. It will help in appearance as well as mental well being knowing that you did it for yourself. |
