No, Furious, it's not about *that*! :P
Has anyone here ever tried the hundred pushups training programme or anything similar? I've just started - today was Day 1 - and if anyone wants to join me in this  Feel free to post your ongoing efforts here.Just for the record, I did 10/10/8/6/8 today. Wahay!

My sensei had us doing 100 "cuts" per day with a bokken. I'm a little less likely to do it now that I'm in an apartment with normal ceilings (vs. the 12' ceilings in the old mill I lived in before).

Well, I had a torn rotator cuff repair, so I'll need to check first- but I bet it'll be okay. I don't know how many straight "plank" type push ups I can do right away. Now I need to find out.

Did something right Member  |
I'm not a fan on how it just concentrates on one exercise. There's a combination of pushups, pullups, and squats that I like better, but I can't seem to find it now . . . .

You're probably right on that, Tongster. I'm not really following the instructions to a T; I'm doing the pushups at the end of my muscle workout (12 minutes on the bike, 3 sets of chin-ups, 3x3 sets of dumbell work, 2-3 sets of crunches). I'll see how it works.

I have actually started doing push-ups anyway... would be good to have a firmly motivated plan, though.
I also wish they hadn't taken out the pull-up bars that were in the park by my flat. Those are the muscles I want to work out more, to get into decent climbing shape. ****************************************** Me in Rock: This Shirt Is Pants | Mr. Fusion Me in blog: izenmania |

Big deal, I've done a hundred pushups.
Not all at once, but if you add it all up over my entire life, that sounds about right. ---------------- Never stare into a car's headlights and freeze, because you'll either be run over or shot. |

Yeah - i now have someone (offboard) nagging me to do this because I have started complaining about my fat arms lately. I hate it when they are right!
Also - now that I have JOB I can see a gym membership in my future.

Snazz - do you have tall doorways? we have a bar that slips in and out of brackets we screwed to a doorway. So instant pullup bar. I ordered ours from Amazon. But I am sure you can get them around. ------------------------------ "I claim the capacity to doubt." - Herman Wouk ------------------------------- "They warn you about killers and thieves in night I worry about cancer and living right But my mama never warned me about my own Destructive appetite" - Jenny Lewis "Happy" |

I've also got one of those doorway bars. They're fairly practical - if your doorways are high enough, that is.
I've got slightly sore muscles this morning, but I'm sure that will quickly change after the second and third round of pushups. |

If they've still got those lower ones I saw you can do pull-ups lying down and pulling yourself up from underneath. It's not quite as good, but ladies can do it easier ____________________________________________________ tiny ball of rage. hilarious, condensed rage - Snazz maybe if everyone loved her boobs, we'd either have WW3 or world peace... - Sillypunk I never really lost my virginity... it just sort of eventually wore off - Chris Addison I'm an artiste.
