I've just completed 100 push-ups today. Knee push-ups...but still. 100!
A couple days ago, I came across and Active.com tweet about the 30-Day Ultimate Push-Up Challenge. The challenge is to do 100 push-ups a day for 30 days.
100 PUSH-UPS A DAY FOR 30 DAYYYYYSSSSS!
Craziness.

I was immediately intrigued.
I can probably do 4 or 5 regular toe push-ups and I've been meaning to work on my upper body strength. So challenge accepted!
It is technically day 3 of the challenge for me but it's the first day that I've completed the 100 push-ups!
Today went like this:
20 this morning before work
2 sets of 20 at the gym
2 sets of 20 at home in the evening!
Breaking the task up into sets of 20 should help a lot in getting it done. You know? Break it off into chewable pieces. I only completed 20 knee push-ups Day 1 and Day 2 but after today, I think I'm ready to commit to it.
For me the challenge is about getting stronger not about being crazy about hitting 100 everyday. I will do my best to listen to my body, to not injure any more parts of my body. I already feel a difference between Day 1 and today.
Stay tuned for my progress!
How about you?
How many push-ups can you do?
What new challenges are you attempting these days?
