hundred pushups program

Completed week 3 day 2. This time I just followed the plan instead of going overboard, so my shoulders shouldn't be in pain for two days again...

This thread was a great idea. Helped motivate me, hope it's doing the same for many of you.

Great to hear Maddmatt! Also helping me stick in there :D
 
I am almost finished with week1 and just took a look-see at week2 and I see the number of pushups per day increases by quite a bit :eek:

img-thing


:D
 
I didn't get around to doing day 2 this weekend, so I will attempt when I get home :o

@D3x!, there is a bit of a bolding failure for the last entry in the OP ;)
 
Gah, the weekend pwnd my ass!! Last exercise before the weekend had me doing a total of 83 pushups and only the last two were super difficult. Now after the weekend the program told me to do 92, and I started bailing at 70 already :/ So looks like I'll be repeating that day

Thats 83 for the whole day right?

How many reps and sets is that made up of?
 
Um... its something like 15, 13, 16, 14, 13, 10 for the total of 82 (cant remember exactly).
For the 92 (which it looks like I'm repeating exactly because of the feedback I give the app) goes 14, 13, 15, 14, 14, 12, 10.
 
Hey guys :D I'm doing the Android app push up challenge as well. Did 30 in my initial test and for my next push up day I have to do 80 in total. Not sure how the android app compares to this 100 push up challenge :/ Do I have to take break days, I don't see the point?

Breaks are to rest your muscles so that they get a chance to grow.

Yup, break days are quite important. Your muscle grows when they are resting, not when they are doing the exercise ;)

Keep us updated :D

I do sit ups and push ups one day, can I then do pull ups and squats the next?
 
Yes thats perfect. As long as you don't work the same muscle groups in consecutive days, then they will still be rested.

Great, thanks :D So I get a pull up bar from Verimark you guys say? Thanks for the replies :p
