June 16, 2008 at 12:02 pmI was thinking about that as I was running this morning!
Hannah says
June 16, 2008 at 12:17 pmI am all about being on the bandwagon…that video was excellent, thanks!
Sagan says
June 16, 2008 at 12:24 pmMy first week of the 100 push up challenge started today! I am so excited about it. I can’t wait to challenge the guys to a push up contest in a few weeks and completely kick their asses. Hehehe.
Hurray for the bandwagon!
workout mommy says
June 16, 2008 at 12:27 pmi did mine this morning and so did my toddler. He is very excited about the plan. Much more so than my hubby, who groaned “no way” when I suggested he try it too.
oh well, he’s missing out on the fun!
Judy says
June 16, 2008 at 12:57 pm100 pushups? A DAY?
Seriously, I could never before, in my life, do ONE pushup until recently. I never had any real upper body strength. Now i can do several, but now my lower body is not as strong.
Hmmm … maybe I’ll try. Not committing to it though. I have this whole fear of commitment …
Marste says
June 16, 2008 at 1:02 pmOo, neat! I share Judy’s fear of commitment though, so I’m not announcing my determination to do this. (But I might do it in secret! Shhh!)
Seriously, I used to dance, and even then (when I could leg press more than most men I knew) I had a hard time with push-ups! So this could be fun!

June 16, 2008 at 1:35 pmThanks for drawing my attention to this. I’m on board with ya!
Laura Brandon says
June 16, 2008 at 1:39 pmhey, quick question (i’m not at home or i’d just email). just how much protein do you recommend with breakfast?
MizFit says
June 16, 2008 at 1:45 pmblahblahblah only my thumbtyped opinion:
*I* usually do 40% protein 30% carbs 30% good fats for every meal (*waves at Dr Barry Sears*).

June 16, 2008 at 1:54 pmHmmm. I’d never heard of this! I’ll probably give it a try, though!
Haley says
June 16, 2008 at 1:59 pm100 pushup challenge? Intriguing… I may have to jump on this one. I’m going to take stock of my motivation after work tonight and then we’ll see. 🙂
Nitmos says
June 16, 2008 at 2:28 pmI can eat 4 maybe 5 push up pops a day. 100? You’re crazy.
The Bag Lady says
June 16, 2008 at 2:50 pm**Whiny voice** ….Do wall push-ups count? Probably not, eh? Sigh. I’ll see what I can do…..
Mercedes says
June 16, 2008 at 3:46 pmI”m in! I’ll do the test tonight, then I’ll start the training plan post-run in the morning.
And I’ve written this down in public view, so now I have to follow through!
Chris says
June 16, 2008 at 3:57 pm100 Push-up a day? Wow! I’m game.
Token Fat Girl says
June 16, 2008 at 4:01 pmThanks for stopping by today! I am glad to get more input about the loose skin topic. Sigh. Its nice to hear this from someone as in shape as you are.
I love your be present tank top! Also, I started the 100 pushups challenge today. I did them on the wall this morning. I’m going to blog about it tomorrow! Take Care,
Lorrie

MomWeightLoss says
June 16, 2008 at 7:43 pmI’m so intimidated by it. But it sounds so intriguing I may have to test it soon!
The Daily Mel says
June 16, 2008 at 8:08 pmI’m intimidated by this challenge as well. I guess that’s as good a reason as any to do it. I’ll definitely be starting with the wall push-ups as I’ve not done any push-ups since my back surgery last year. The doctor gave me a total green light on exercise several months ago. I’ve just been doing mostly cardio up to this point. I guess it’s a good time to start adding some strength training in again.
MizFit says
June 17, 2008 at 5:25 amMomWeightLoss? May I instruct you (ask you? Suggest to you?) NOT to be intimidated?
Intimidation gives the lowly little push up way too much power!
Feel free to make sure no one is home.
Draw the curtains & lock the doors and START WITH ONE wall push up & work your way up from there!

Valerie says
June 17, 2008 at 6:46 amGod, I hate pushups. I really really do. I mean, I do them…but I despise them with everything in me. Because, you know, I SUCK at them.
This is an interesting program though. Sort of a Couch-to-5K for strength training. 🙂 And it actually sounds like exactly the thing for someone like me, who sucketh enormously but knows she needs to improve. I can do this. I don’t want to, but I can, and it would be a great addition to my workout regimen. 🙂

Lance says
June 17, 2008 at 8:30 amHey, I think I’ll have to give this a try – it sounds like a fun (in a sadistic sort of way) time!
Deb says
June 17, 2008 at 12:07 pm15 pushups on the test… I know this is going to be good for me, but wholey cow!
I honestly think the hardest part will be the strain on my wrists and my left toe. But if I can get through those…
mamarunswithscissors says
June 17, 2008 at 3:27 pmi’m in! starting today with the lowest level. i’m very excited to see what comes of it.
mamarunswithscissors says
June 17, 2008 at 3:36 pmactually did the second column. weird….i felt stronger on the last set than i did on the first.
Robin says
June 18, 2008 at 2:33 pmI am intrigued by the pushups as well. But I can’t do one “real” pushup. I can do 10 “modified” (I won’t say the “g” word) pushups. So should I keep trying for real ones or do the progam with the knee pushups?
