Who's in?

I'm in too. Thanks for the shoulder-safety mod tips - I'll definitely be doing wrist-safety mods (knee and/or exercise ball version) as well. Will test tomorrow!

Is it too late? if no, I'm in

If using hand weights, what position would you use for the weights - weight handles parallel to the body or perpendicular?

I think it's easier to protect your shoulders and elbows if the weights are parallel, but since you already know your wrists are an issue, I'd say whichever way feels better.

I thought I might join in, did my initial test, and decided that no, I will not join in. :p I did plenty...I don't need to do 100 in a row. FWIW, push ups (many different kinds) have been a big part of my PT routine, so I will keep doing them.

But if anyone is serious about the pull up challenge, I'd be up for that. My pull up-ing has seriously lagged since surgery (since I turned 40 my goal is to do the number of pull ups that I am old on each birthday--with rest, obviously--and if I want to be able to do that next birthday, I need to get back into the routine).
