    Who's in?

    I know some of us did this awhile back (2 years ago??).

    I've been trying to get some motivation back to get back in shape after some medical problems.

    I did this before with a group on TE, found it fun and motivating. I don't know how to do all the graphs that were done in the last one.

    Just wanted to see if anyone was interested?

    I was *just* thinking about starting up the other day. I tried once about a year or so ago, but only made it a few weeks. Accountability would be good.

    I'd be in for this! Right now with training, weight loss isn't high on my list, but strength training is.

    I did it last time, and loved the sense of accomplishment! Was just thinking about it recently and would love to do it again!

    My rotator cuffs hurt just thinking about last time I tried that.

    I'm motivated enough to work on the program, but apparently not motivated enough to do all the other work that I need to balance the push-ups. So not me, this time.

    I would LOVE to start this....however, I'm battling my first ever tendinitis in my elbow and don't know that I'll be ready for this.

    If it was pull-ups, I'd totally be in.

    I was just thinking about this last time I did push-UPS at the gym. I didn't complete the entire program last time. Count me in again this time.

    count me in as well- the new trainer aalso thinks it is an excellent idea since my "upper body strength isn't all that it could be."

    he says he'll count for me when I do the initial test on Friday after we finish our regular session.

    I tried it last time we attempted this on here, but I think it was too soon after my wrist injury. I made it up to the 75 push-up level, but was getting wicked pains in my wrist. Lately I've been trying to do modified push-ups to protect my wrist, but not with any regularity. I'll give it a go again, count me in.
