    Ha!  Still not liking this.  Might be doing this week over.  

    We'll have to see how the exhaustion test goes.

      Sadly, I can only do 5 good form "real" push ups.

      is definitely progress.  Keep at it.  25 pushups is not something many folks can do.

       

      It's taking me twice or three times as long as the plan calls for to move from one week to next, but I am progressing as well.  Finished W5 C3 D3 with a max of 45 or 55, lost count somwhere, just could not do one more after that, so does not matter what the real number is, just that I am close enough that maybe I have chance to complete this challenge soon.

       

      MTA - Has been a slow day at work, so did another Max set just now, and happy to report an 80.  Not sure if I followed the "Good form pushups".  Maybe there is something to Tony's method of doing the prescribed workout then a couple of hours later try the Max single set.

                Oh and I forgot the actual workout # per set so I added a couple.

                  Very nice.  If you can do it there is hope for me next week then.

                            Looks like spaniel is ready for the final push to 100, I could not do any more than the bare minimum for the final set, yet could do 80. Memorial weekend parties meant too much Beer/wine and no workouts the whole weekend. Got to catch up next week.

                              Max test today. 81. Crap. 19 more seems like a big hill to climb.

                                After I repeat W5 C3 I will likely do W6 C2 then W6 C3, unless I get 90 after W5.  19ish increase in a week IS a big hill.
