Dare to Do 100 push-ups before 2012

By Dempseyall41 on May 23, 2012 at 08:15 AM

These were pushups on my knees, this counts right? lol. I'm hoping to be able to do 50 pushups (regular pushups) in 6 weeks.

You gotta start somewhere. So especially if your plan is to graduate up to regular pushups soon, I think you are doing fine. :-)

Got a new job that is extremely physically demanding so haven't had the energy for push ups but I wanna start again from tonight, no excuses.

Welcome back. I've been wondering where everybody is! Good luck in the new job, too.

push-ups during fitness class
4 sets to failure (fiancee prefers the term "fatigue", bc it sounds more positive)
call it failure or fatigue,
my arms are jello

starting physical therapy on my rotator cuff tonight. going to ask therapist how to simulate push-ups until shoulder heals enough to resume

By Evensr0207 on September 18, 2011 at 04:49 PM

Yah a hard one, and will take a while for sure...Had it years ago and every so often, I get a nagging reminder...Ouch!

By lindahwa on September 19, 2011 at 11:51 AM

oh no....what happened? wish you well on your recovery.

By saleemhuepenny on April 5, 2012 at 08:14 PM

did my first push-ups since my car wreck in July
did 12 in a row
humbling, and almost even more satisfying than the days of being on W5/D?/C?

By Gunrock on April 6, 2012 at 07:35 AM

Welcome back! When I saw Evensr's and Linda's I thought they'd returned, too.

Welcome back! When I saw Evensr's and Linda's avatars I thought they'd returned, too.

Hey GR, I just thought the same thing about linda and evensr!

Hey GR, I just thought the same thing about linda and evensr! Saleem, sorry to hear about your wreck. Don't push it to much. You're doing the right thing by easing back into it. Best of luck!

By Gunrock on April 6, 2012 at 07:33 AM

80,60,50,50,50, (290) That's all I could do tonight. I tried to do another five sets after a 30 minute break but I just don't have it in me. Tomorrow I'll double my efforts.
