Week 3 once again
Today I restarted week 3 of the 100 pushup challenge - again. Lately it seems that every time I try to restart this whole thing we get busy, have nights out and I just can’t find the time to get my workouts in. I think I may start having to get [...]

Week 5 looks tough!
Well last night was day one of week 5 in my 100 pushup challenge. How did it go?
FAIL!
Ok, it wasn’t all that bad. It was a pretty tough week and I wasn’t sure I’d even be able to make it through the first 2 or 3 sets. After day one it gets [...]

Well, I was planning on doing week 5 of the 100 pushups challenge this week, but every day something just seems to come up and get in the way. Yesterday we didn’t get home from a gathering at a friend’s house until late, and I was too tired to do any pushups. Tonight I had [...]

Week 4 - what column will I be doing in week 5?
This morning I was waiting around for some workers to finish fixing a crack in my foundation. While I waited around I decided to do my exhaustion test for week 4.
If you perform 30 or less pushups you go back to week [...]

Week 4 - will I have to repeat it like week 3?
Today was day 3 of week 4 on my 100 pushup challenge.
Once again it looked tough, so I wasn’t sure if I could do all the pushups. Every time that I surprise myself and complete a set my confidence climbs though.
I was a [...]

Week 4 resumes!
Here we are on week 4, day two. Pretty similar to day one of week 4, but slightly more pushups.
I took the day off yesterday because I had such a hard day having to put my dog to sleep at the vet. Not something I ever want to go through again. (But I’m [...]

That means I’ll be doing 16, 13, 13, 11, 16. After [...]

Week three of the 100 pushup challenge… again
This morning was day 3 of week 3 of the 100 pushups challenge. I did the same week last week, and I failed on my day 3 pushups in the last set of 16. I made it to 12, and then had to finish from my knees.
This [...]

This week is my second time around doing week 3 of the 100 pushups challenge.
I did my pushups on Wednesday just before going out to play tennis. I pushed through them at a good pace. It wasn’t as tiring as the last time I did them, but it was still hard.
I started out with the [...]

When I started the 100 pushups workout I found that I wasn’t always near a computer on the days I needed to do my workout. It was a small issue, but a pain nonetheless. It would have been nice to have the entire workout in my hands so that I could just reference it when [...]

Saturday was day 3 of week 3 in my 100 pushup challenge. As I mentioned in a previous post I failed on the last set - only making it to 10 of the required 16 minimum pushups, although I did complete the pushups from my knees. This week I’m doing week 3 over.
I didn’t [...]

Today is day 2 of week 3. Monday’s workout was tough for me, and I just barely made it through the last set of 15. Today’s workout steps it up another notch, and I am 50/50 on whether I’d be able to finish or not.
To get some added inspiration today I checked out [...]

Today is the big day - day one of the 3rd week. After yesterday’s exhaustion test I’ll be starting in column one of this week’s regimen.
That means today’s workout was 15, 12, 12, 10, 15(max) pushups. Even though I’ve been progressing, this seemed like quite a bump for me, but what else can I [...]

Today is day 3 of week 2, and once again it’s slowly upping the number of pushups.
Tonight is our 4th of July BBQ, so I figured I better get my pushups done in the morning before I get weighed down by hot dogs, burgers and beans. It is not going to be a healthy [...]

Today was day 2 of week 2 of the 100 pushup challenge. I was not feeling it today, and was not looking forward to doing my set of 11, 9, 7, 7, 10(max). I changed once I got home, and got to work.

Saturday was day 3 of week 1 for my 100 pushup challenge. I didn’t get to my pushups yesterday because I was entertaining, and people showed up early. So I performed my pushups this morning.
