    You were doing so well SS. Hope you get back to form soon!

    Well I did a bit crap on my max test so repeated day 3 or week 4 (column 2).
    Max test again tonight

    Tennis elbow seems to have gone. Been keeping my hand in with 3x20 press ups every other night for last few nights. Will take another Max Test this weekend and crack on. Target? To do the 100 before my holiday (16/07).

    How'd you get on?

    Good luck SS!

    I tried the challenge about 6 months ago, fell short (87) on my max test and for one reason or another (i.e. I don't really know why!) never went back to it but now that I've spotted this thread I may have to get back into it again!

    Will have to test myself and see what week I'd need to start from... hopefully not from scratch!

    How's is going now SS - I made it to week 5

    Cannot believe I have got this far, although it's taken a lot longer than 5 weeks slow and steady though !!

    It's too hot now though

    yes at this rate the last 2 weeks worth will be finished by June 2010

    I don't care though, I can do almost 3 times as many press ups than before

    Let us know how max test goes SS

    I've just noticed that

    "200 squat challenge"

    has appeared on the push up challenge website!

    Sounds like a must for fell runners! :-)
