One push-up day one, increasing one push-up each day. The fun culminates on Saturday, Oct. 16th with 101 push-ups for time (know as the “It Hurts So Good” WOD and a party (no need to be entered in the challenge to attend, but you have to do the WOD)!
We had a great time in 2008 with a burpee challenge, I think this will be even more fun.
The Rules:
- Sign up ends Friday, July 23
- Knee or toe push-ups allowed
- Start with arms perpendicular to the ground with straight elbows
- Chest-to-ground
- Elbow next to ribs until you can do 20 toe push-up in a row
- Full elbow extension
- Full hip and knee extension throughout rep
- Head neutral to spine
- Broken sets allowed and encouraged after day 20
- Spread make-up reps over 3 days
Yahoo! LOVE the Challenges! For you non-mathletes, that’s 5150 pushups at the end of 101 days. Looking forward to it – thx, Saul!
Can I join? 🙂
Heck yeah, but no skanky push-ups, you are on your honor. 😉
“skanky” pushups? I’m curious as to what qualifies as skanky. I will do my daily pushups, and will come to the challenge on October 16th if that’s cool 😛
skankiness is one, or more, of the following winged scapula, hip piking or sagging, the dreaded torso wave and finally, the head droop.
NICE! I’m in…I’ve always felt that I needed to be 5150’d 😉
