3 down, 7 to go for most - you can do it! Don't forget that on even days you should try for max reps per set in as few sets as possible.

Tip: for a more effective push-up, try to make your pushup 2sec down, 2sec up. Now that's tough!

    50 + 40 + 30 + 50 + 30. I was trying for 4x50, but I'm happy with the 5 sets instead.

    Done - 50, 50, 35, 50, 15. Kinda went wimpy on that middle 35 - found that the push bars make 'em much tougher.

    200 done. WAY harder than the first 3 days. I did the last 100 in a short span of time... not by choice but because I just ran out of time today. YOWZAS. Girly-pushups or not, 100 in one shot is grueling.

    Today I went until absolute max on each set w/ full recovery between: 70/75/55.

    200 d-u-n done. Most of today's sets were in the 20-25 range.. all on different variations of push-up bars.

    200 more down! 60, 50, 50, 40. On the last 40 I took it up a notch and shifted my weight forward to make things a bit more difficult.

    Also, 2sec up 2sec down? Sweet zombie Jesus -- that's gonna be challenging. I'll have to give it a try, though.

    So Tom P., when are you going to hit the 100x2? You're an animal!

    in reply to what Tom P. said:Today I went until absolute max on each set w/ full recovery between: 70/75/55.

    Yeah, Tom! Like Chad said, our goal is for you to hit 100x2 by the end :)

    That's my new goal... although probably unrealistic.
