Yuen Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 21 Jan: 2 x 45 push ups. Shoulder ache is down to a very mild twinge now . I'm still not keen to push through to full exhaustion though. Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
formymonkey Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Awesome job guys!

RedCedar Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Been working on the 100 pushups program for two weeks now, and I just finished my first exhaustion test. 29! up from 16 to start.

Jason Bourne Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 This is fantastic everyone! I've been a loser and haven't been updating the way that I should have (I'm a definitely a nerd, but I do have a little bit of a life haha) and I'm so glad that you guys are making progress! All you guys with injuries are especially inspiring. Lots of times the smallest injury serves as an excuse for me to stop working on, but you guys are making progress even in spite of having aches and pains and injuries. This is why I love NerdFitness. Current update for me: My current was 55, and now I'm up to 78!

Flex Luthor Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 You guys are making me yearn for days gone by. I'm out of the push up game these days but reading this I'm starting to get the itch again. Good luck everyone. Beast it up! I'll definitely be following along.

Yuen Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 24 jan: 2 × 50 push ups. Keeping good form too! 1 Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
Yuen Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 2 X 55. Starting to slow the pace on the final 5 reps. Lactic acid beginning to set in Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
Yuen Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 1 x 60 Starting to really grind out the last reps. Form is still good though. Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
DogLackey Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 This sounds fun. My goal would be 60 in a row without any pauses and going all the way up and down. I just did 50 in a row this morning, but I think my form wasn't as good as it could be. I'll try again tomorrow.

Harika Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 I have been trying to get lower, closer to a full push-up, but I seem stuck at 6 or 7 reps. Quote Species: Elven Vampire Class: Assassin Magic Numbers pvp Heroes vs Villains Link to comment

Yuen Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 11 Feb: 80 push ups Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
Yuen Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 13 Feb: 90 push ups (with good form!) Huge mental game at the end. I started 'grinding' and slowing down at 70 reps (same as when I did 80 reps 2 days ago). This time I was mentally prepared to push myself further than 80, but I didn't have the willpower to make it to triple digits. Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
Yuen Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 16 Feb: 100 consecutive! Paused at the top for about 5-10secs at 55 reps then at 75 reps. Grinded out last 25 with a considerable amount of pain and effort. It's not something I could do regularly. I just don't have the mental strength to put that amount of effort in every training session. But since it was the last day of the challenge, I wasn't about to give up when I hit 90 no matter how much I was hurting. 1 Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
DogLackey Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 16 Feb: 100 consecutive! Grinded out last 25 with a considerable amount of pain and effort. I know that feeling. Awesome job Yuen, substantial gains. I got to 80 pushups last Monday. Quote DogLackey, level 1 Maenad Druid/RangerSTR 2|DEX 1.5|STA 2|CON 2.5|WIS 2.5|CHA 1.5 Link to comment

Harika Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 I did 5 and then 7 half-down push-ups yesterday.I stayed at the same place (6-7) for the entire challenge, without any large change in how low I go.
