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!

Damn that was hard work. Maybe body tired yesterday and today 2 x 15 miles but started to struggle from 16 in the 3rd set. But 3 x 26 done and tomorrow is another day.

3 x 5 done. First one of each set is a 'manly' one and it is more of a plank with a slight bend at the elbow. Remainder of set are girlie ones. Not great form but better than not doing it. Becoming more difficult.

3 X 25 press ups. First set easy, second set getting tougher, third set very very hard. I actaully stopped half way up on the 25th pressup and had to will myself to finish it off. There was not another rep in there today, but hey I did it :-)

Keep going Hamish as you say better than not doing it.

Exflyboy I know your pain. my last set yesterday was a real battle.

Well done Jingles.

Done my 3 x 27 a short while ago. Hard but not as hard as yesterday.

I can now relax ;-)

About This Thread

Maintained by Dogtanian
Start on day 1 with 3 x 1 press up. On day 2 move to 3 x 2 and keep increasing by one every day. If you fail to do the target for the day then you try the same number the next day, only increasing when you have done the session properly. The Marathon talk challenge is to get to 3 x 100 push ups.

There are no real rules except all three sets must be done in the same session though. No going to wash your hair/walk the dog in-between sets:-).
