Press ups assumption

[RED-DOG]

Nah! I'm following the website and I'm getting 120 seconds (More if needed) on day 3.

Just looked on the website and it's exactly the same as the app for breaks.

I've also made the huge error of looking at the requirements for weeks 5 and 6. 45 second breaks!!!! Oh man!!!!

Lol. You could have broken it to me gently.

I don't think we need to worry Tom.

I'm assuming that by then we'll be cardio ninjas so 45 seconds will be ample.

Week # 2.

Day # 3.

Column # 3.

Attempt # 2.

Fail # 2.

Needed to do 16 - 17 - 14 - 14 - 20.

Managed to do 16 - 17 - 14 - 14 - 14.

If anything, it seemed even harder this time. I think I've hit a bit of a wall.

Week 1 day 3

11, 15, 9, 9, 13

Did 11,15, 9, 9, 20

Felt good, took the two minute breathers and only struggled on the last two push ups. Could have done a few more but was in the gym and had a few more arm reps to do so didn't push it.

[Simon Galloway]

Still on week 2 day 2 column 3.

Will update when I actually get it done.  Well done to everyone making progress.

After failing last time I didn't know whether to move on or not, but decided I'd try the next step Week 2 Day 2
14/16 /12/12 at least 17
Pleased to report success with 18 on the last set,an extra one done to compensate for a questionable one late on.

14-16-12-12-17

Done!

Onto week 2, day 3

[RED-DOG]

14-16-12-12-17

Done!

Onto week 2, day 3

Welcome to the one I can't do.

[Simon Galloway]

Heh Thanks Tom ~ I tried it a while back and was nowhere near, before repeating the whole week.  I'm under no illusion that I'll be here for a while, but we'll both get it cracked at some point.

I'm logging about 70 press-ups atm, to be at the business end of week 6, it is going to be 275+ press ups.  Pretty sure I'm not getting there in 4 weeks!!

[Rubbish2407]

Did week 2 day 1 column 3 today.

Should have had a days break but was in the gym and felt fine so went for it.

Reps were 14,14,10,10,15
Did 14,,11,10,10,15

Not sure why I missed out 3 on set 2 but will re do tomorrow.

[Rubbish2407]

Quiet on here?

Did day 2, week 2, column 3

14, 16, 12, 12, 17

Did 14, 16, 12, 12, 21.

I then looked at next weeks which is just LOL. This time next week I should be jumping up from 71 today to 120? Just to give me a head start I did a further 5 X 5 sets to get me up to 100 today. Feeling quite chuffed.

That's week 2 days 3 column 3 done.  The only dodgy bit was I had to go and answer the door after set 4, so I prolly got 2-3 mins rest in before having to do the final set.

Next up will be an exhaustion test in a day or 2, then I can lol @ the week 3 stuff.  I hope I'm not in Column 3....

I finally managed to do this one today too Simon, it was my third attempt. I was at the absolute limit of my endurance, and I had a two minute rest before the final set.

Exhaustion test next...

Been a few days since i had done this so wasn't hopeful.

Week 3 Day 3 level 2

16-21-15-15-15-21

Did:

16-21-15-15-21+5 (stood up at the 21st then went back and did another 5 as i am used to basically being done at the end).

Move up to next one on Wed.

Keep up the good work peeps.

[Simon Galloway]

Well done guys.  Although the future weeks look like a lot of extra reps, now that most of the pain has gone and there is a decent base to work from, I can readily believe that building up #'s quite quickly can happen.  I don't think that means we will waltz through it... but building up from 10 to 30 is probably harder than 80 to 100 ??

Also for me in particular, the extra weight is not helping, but I'm making progress as that reduces too, even if I didn't get any stronger.
