100 Pushup Challenge: Week 3(x3), Day 1 (again)

by Peter · 4 comments

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 up earlier so that I can exercise in the A.M.

Week 3 day 1 Column 2

Once again I started with 20. No problem. Powered through.

the two sets of 15 weren’t too bad, maybe the rest I’ve had actually helped? The 13 and was harder, but overly hard.

For the last set I made it to 20, and it wasn’t as much of a struggle as it was last time. So Wedensday I move on to day two again.

Looks to be a little harder, but do-able.

How’s your pushup challenge going? Have you given up yet? Still giving it your all? Doing it half-way? Let me know in the comments!

I’m giving it a rest due to injury.

BTW I get a 404 when I click the link to your updated pushups file.

after doing week 4 twice, I’m now on my second week of week 5…. and it is still crazy hard. On my final set of my 2nd week5 day 1 I still couldn’t get to the max recommended.

But I am definitely showing improvement. On my latest “self test” I made it to 50 straight pushups – a huge increase from before I started the program.

I had to repeat week 5 – and just failed it again. I couldn’t make it through day 1 this time, when last time I had no problem. I am hoping that taking a break and starting day 1 tomorrow will bring improvement.
