Once my uncle came home from the pen, 100 push ups use to be goal of mine.

For training we would go thru a deck of cards, taking all the 4, 3, 2's out....

I would flip over one card, her would flip over like 5 :krs:

At the end of the day tho (not really 1 day) I was about to pump out 76. Im finna get back to it tho...


Niggga got a perfect push up :whew:

I started this shyt but I don't really know if it works. I started column 3 on week two.

Now Im on week 4, going to day 3. Shyt is tough dena ho. Those rest time are a muthafucca.

A niggga does 25 waits 90 secs, does 29, waits 90 secs, 25 wait 90 seconds and can't do them hoes....I either have to wait longer to stay down in the push up position for longer until I can muster like 3-4 (sometimes 1-2) @ a time. I really waited like 5 minutes today so I could max. I ain't gon give up on the shyt.

I'll see how many I can do after week 6

The Truth
I did 75 push-ups in like 45 seconds during my PT test this week... And I haven't done a push-up in 6 months.

I could've did more but I didn't see the point, it doesn't actually help my score to do anymore than required.


Only thing Ive been doing was benching and shoulder pressing at a high rep/low weight (135 is low to me, x25 for 2-4 sets), and only doing upperbody once a week.

I probably only do a semi-heavy day once a month

So i decided to take this challenge but i decided to do knuccle ups. I took tha initial test & decided to stop at 30 before i started. Not sure if i could have done more but i hada shyt so i wasnt trying to find out. Once i came bac i took the week 3 test & maxed out at 20 for my last set of push ups like it said which was difficult but not hella. I also decided to do another 20 forgetting i already did 30 at the beginning.

I'll continue to take this challenge.

Bout to start trying this on Monday. Tried the initial test and just did twenty so I can start at the highest level. Already do my own pushup challenge but i like this one. Hopefully I stick to it. Just gotta set a routine for the three days.

Hell yeah. Flat palm hurts my wrist

I might have to try them. I can knock out about 50 at once my wrists are throbbing after.

Reached that point last week.

Between the push-ups and heavier weights on presses my wrist were worked.

For your wrist you have to focus on pushing off on the end of your arms. Thats what your 'wrist' is, the end of your arm. if you are balanced too much on your hands then you are stretching out the wrist and after a while that shyt hurts like hell and will cause damage.

To simulate put your hands together like you making a big V with your hands.

If you push the base of your thumbs (down by the wrist) together, you'll notice its soft and even as you put pressure you aren't really feeling it in your hands or wrist but kind of your pecs flex together. That's what you want. if you put your hands together like you're praying and push them together that shyt is uncomfortable as hell.
Try to use the same position on the floor, drive up from the heel of your hand.


Its just like with squats, your ankles shouldnt hurt because you aren't flexing off of your toes and the top portion of your foot and your ankles, but you are driving up from the floor through your heel.

I started from pretty far back with ~6 perfect form pushups. I followed the program for a 2+ weeks and stopped. I went to doing 2-3 sets of pushups to failure every morning. I'm about 2.5 weeks into that routine. I am going back to the program today starting with week 3. Since I'm into a daily routine now, I will go to 1 rest day per week and repeat each workout giving 6 days on and 1 off per week.

Hoping to continue the gains combined with my weight workouts.

All said, this is a good workout. I've found that as you progress it becomes more a test of cardio fitness in addition to strength.
