Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I do mine in sets of 5 because after that, I find my form starts to slump. I'm not proud!

3 sets of 6 with a minute between sets this morning. Not too worried about the amount of pressups I'm doing, just trying to find the consistency first. Early days n all that

3 sets of 10 throughout most days, but at a height not down on the ground. I'm at kitchen worktop level for now.

Same as GM, sets of 10 throughout the day. I’ve not posted before as I’m doing kitchen counter press-ups. But as my arm muscles are aching I guess they must be doing something!

What we all need to remember is that everyone has to start somewhere, and starting is the hardest bit.

We all started somewhere. Doing 2 or 3 press ups was hard, but if you stick with it eventually doing 5 or 6 or 10 or 50 feels as hard.

Don’t give up and don’t be discouraged because you can’t do what some people can. If we all saw Kipchoge’s marathons and gave up because we’d never be that good where would any of us be?
