Push-Up! Initial Test

I'm in column 2 (6 - 10) and I did all 5 sets with maxing out at 5 on the last set.:)

I am also in column 2 and did all sets and maxed out at 6 on the final.:)

Column 3 and I managed one more than the "at least" for the max at the end--10!

I signed up for http://www.pushupslogger.com... here i am!

I bought the "Hundred Pushups" and "Two Hundred Squats" apps.

Each cheaper than a full sized bar of chocolate.

They keep me organized and give me instant gratification. Both very important motivators in my little universe. :p

I tested into column two, just barely, but decided to go with column one. Maxed out at five in the last set.

*icing my L shoulder after day one*

How pathetic is that?! I have a feeling this may end up taking me more like 6 months than 6 weeks. I guess I'm really not in any hurry.

Week 1, day 1, column 3:
Completed, did 1 more than the max in last set so the total was 46. Column 3 is hard, wonder how long before I drop to column 2.

I looooooove the iPod apps for this!

Doing pushups and squats on alternate days.

Wish there was an android app. Think I'll start the squat plan next week. Have a few target training runs I don't want to interfer with by being sore

Week 1, day 2, column 2. Maxed out at 9 on the last set.

W1D2, column 1, did 7 on the last set.

Week 1, Column 2, maxed out at 9 on last set :eek: Gonna hurt tomorrow!

I'm starting next week. I totally forgot on Monday and then the week got away from me! It'll fit my plans if I start next week much better anyway.

I'm supposed to start in column 3, but I remember that being really hard last time. I reserve the right to move to column 2 if I need to!

Week 1, day 2, 10 on the final set (my son said to aim for 12!)

W1,D2, column 3, DONE, WHEW! Not sure how much longer before I drop to column 3.
Did my squat test. Stopped at 100, didn't want to be sore for Saturday's 5 mile run.

W1, D2, column 3, maxed at 13. :)
