Today was the first day of my quest to do 100 push-ups. I'm following the schedule on this website.
Since today was the first day, I had to do the initial test. I was able to do 11 full (non-modified) push-ups. Honestly, I was surprised that I was able to do so many, and in fact, I probably could have done some more if I pushed myself.
Because of this, I'll be following column #3 in this plan during weeks 1-2. I have to do push-ups three times per week. I'm aiming for Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday, because those days are when I usually have the least amount of work and/or driving to do. Here's the plan for the first two weeks:
Week 1:
Day 1: set of 10, set of 12, set of 7, set of 7, as many as possible (minimum 9)
Day 2: set of 10, set of 12, set of 8, set of 8, as many as possible (minimum 12)
Day 3: set of 11, set of 15, set of 9, set of 9, as many as possible (minimum 13)
Week 2:
Day 1: set of 14, set of 14, set of 10, set of 10, as many as possible (minimum 15)
Day 2: set of 14, set of 16, set of 12, set of 12, as many as possible (minimum 17)
Day 3: set of 16, set of 17, set of 14, set of 14, as many as possible (minimum 20)
At the end of week 2, I have to do a follow-up test, where I must do as many as possible. That will tell me what to do in the following weeks. I'll check back in soon to share my progress!
