onehundredpushups Week 1 Day 2

onehundredpushupsIt seems the onehundredpushups thing is quite the internet fad at the moment, I’ve seen  lots of blog and tweats about it.

Today was the secound day of week one, and I managed to complete it while doing a total of 59 pushups.  (12, 12, 10, 10, and then maxing out with 15). It was a lot harder than day one, and I think I was still feeling the effects of that, so I’ll probably be stiff tomorrow.

I’ll be doing the next day on Friday, hopefully I can complete week one without having to repeat it.

    You should be ok, what makes it more bearable is definitely the increase in rest-times. I did week 2 day 1 yesterday and noticed a marked improvement straight away (maxed at 20 in my final set after starting at 14 on my initial test).

    When you look further ahead however, week 2-3 and 4-5 are really scary transitions (granted that you do get retests so it naturally re-calibrates you). But going from ~10 pushups to 100 in just 6-weeks is gonna require some pretty hasty improvements.
