Title: 100 Pushup Challenge
Post by: Cheetah on March 13, 2009, 02:43:37 pm
My Fiancee found this online and thought it was interesting so now I'm trying to see if I can reach a hundred:

http://hundredpushups.com/ (http://hundredpushups.com/)

I did my initial test a week ago and did 40. So I started on week 3 in the program.

Day 1: I was supposed to do 14,18,14,14 and then at least 18. I did 14,18,14,14 and just managed 18 with a short break.

Day 2: I was supposed to do 20,25,15,15 and then at least 25. I did everything barely and once again had to take a short break on the last set to get 25.

Day 3: Is 22,30,20,20 and at least 28. I'm going to try them in a few hours.


Has anyone else done this or want to try?

Because most people can't do 100 in a row, it's a training program that eventually leads up to doing 100 consecutive push-ups.

Well I got through my day 3 push-ups just barely again. I needed to take a 30 second break to finish the last 6 or my final set of 28.

Every football practice we had to do 100 in a row, without a single break.

That is good stuff, I have done 100 consecutive pushups before as well. But you have to build up to it and I'm just seeing if this program actually works.

By Week 6 you'll be doing over 200 push-ups non-consecutively, I'd hope by that time you'd be able to do at least 100 in a row, if not more.

The 200 sit-up challenge would be really easy.
