A few days ago, I decided to join several of my fellow bloggers and attempt to do 100 Push Ups.  During my initial test, I was able to do 13 good, ‘regulation’ push ups.  Today, I officially started the program.

Here’s a chart detailing my Week 1 routine (chart comes directly from the HundredPushUps site.)

The first two sets of 10 were pretty easy, the set of 8 was more difficult, the set of 6 was excruciating, and the final set of 7 (actually 8 for me) nearly killed me.  But, I did a total of 42 push ups!!!

I’m really excited about being able to do 100 push ups - but I’m much more excited about feeling stronger.
