Push it real good!
In January I set a goal of doing 100 consecutive push-ups by the end of the year. For a few months I did nothing; now Ben and I are on the rampage.
While the most consecutive push-ups that we’ve done is 35 and 30, respectively, we’ve have been doing them almost every day. This means we haven’t ever really been fully rested - we’ve just been sore. Tomorrow I’m going to have another crack and hopefully get to 50.
Zoe tells me that Jim Fitz and his son are on their own program, although I have no more details. Timtim continues to push them out, with 5 sets of 20 the other night (with no training - unless he’s doing a quiet achiever.

Sorry. I’ve no idea what your talking about?
What have I and Duncan got to do with it?

So there is another quiet achiever in our midst. Shy Christine from Manitoba (Canada) decided to give the consecutive push ups a go.. 21, 22 then 31 on consecutive days. Look out boys

do you think we need to have a gauntlet night once a week or fortnight? Progress push ups, consecutive to fatigue?

Sounds like fun, although I will now be away until the 2nd June. I’ll send word from the road, along with bird pictures and push-up tallies!

This morning I busted out a new PB of 55 in a row (with 10 to warm-up). Pretty good, considering how piss weak I’ve been feeling recently.
