    My place is small and I don't like my husband watching me or my dogs helping me.....so, I shut myself in a room and do a set then come out to wait the 1 - 2 minutes. You could give it a try....

    Test Results

    I just barely did 21 pushups today in my test, so I'll still be in group 2 starting week 3. Wow! That's twice as many as I did 2 weeks ago!

    Here are my stats for the second week:

    Group 2, Column 2, Week 2, Day 1=9/8/6/4/8=35
    Group 2, Column 2, Week 2, Day 2=11/9/7/7/12=46
    Group 2, Column 2, Week 2, Day 3=10/10/8/8/10=46
    Total = 127

    One of my biceps has been in a muscle spasm for 24+hours. It is really getting annoying. Any advice? Should I back off the pups or keep going? I finally got so irritated with the twitching that I put an ace bandage on it.

    Wow...collectively during week 1 the ground did 883 PUPs on day 3!!! So far we're up to 620 with only 52.4% reporting for week 2 day 3!!!

    Week 2, Day 3, Column 1. 5+5+4+4+6=24

    I can still barely do a really good "good-form" one, so I'm sticking with Column 1.
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

    Week 2, Day 3, column 1. 5+5+4+4+6=24. I can barely do 6 pus, I may have to change styles for the next 4 weeks and then try again. Jones

    Flyebye, how's your arm? Did you try the pups or are you still trying to work the spasm out?

    Exclamation Not Reported for Week 2!

    Attention Cyclepups! I don't have day 3 totals from the following:

    • jesvetmed
    • firenze11
    • jobob
    • limewave (might be injured?)
    • Sadiekate (I know, traveling...)
    • Southernbelle


    (And I need a confirmation of a confirmation from Grog...check your PMs!)

    I won't start the week 3 thread and post the updated spreadsheet until tonight (Monday).

    I don't have your week 1 (last week), day 3 total...can you let me know what that was, please? Day 3 only.

    So does Ruthie! If she's not right under my face (so I can't lower), she's laying on the papers or the stopwatch

    Count me amongst those who will repeat week 2. I did not make 16, and even if I did, I doubt I'd be able to do the 15-12-12-10-10 required of day one. The good news is that on day one of my week 2 repeat, my max was higher than last week. I'm not giving up!

    I only did 13 in my exertion test I think I'll either repeat week 2 (which didn't seem hard enough to me) or do knee-style pups for week 3 and then repeat week 3 with full pups.
