I can't believe I am just now noticing this thread - put me down for 75 from today.

115,376 + 75 = 115,451

I've done about 15,000 in the last four years... does that count?

Grown men that do push-up contests need alcohol. Lots of alcohol.

What? Oh, C'MON... do I get a tax deduction or something?

There has to be a reward besides hardened chest muscles.

I'm such a lightweight... two beers and I'm done. Thanks a lot, lack of body fat.

I'm the "couch guy" at the party.

I can do 60 in three sets without much problem. At this rate I'll be able to reach my goal of 100 in a row by the end of the year.

I think we should have TFP people do the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) and award merit badges and chocolate chip cookies and puppies and sunshine.

Minimum standards (brain is a little rusty):

RUN: 2 miles in 13:50
PUSHUPS: 48 in 2 minutes
SITUPS: 52 in 2 minutes

......

Oooh, puppies and sunshine.

Pushup and situps I can do with no problem. Don't think I can do the run though, stupid knee starts aching if I push it that hard. I can do @9minute miles comfortably, but I'm afraid to push it any harder.

hmm, maybe I'll just make that a goal and start trying to train myself to run 6:55 miles.

Okay, I did a total of 40 in the last week or two. My arms are getting noodley and I can't go all the way down anymore. Shit. This is what happens when all you do is run.

Total: 116,125

Where's my puppy?

I need to start doing these every day again.


Wait, wait... 2 miles in 13:50? Are you sure? I thought it was 1.5 miles in 13:00... or is that just the initial PFT minimum to join up?

You're getting the USMC and the US Army mixed up, chief.

Well while we're on the subject of PFTs, I found this USMC Woman PFT workout program and it calls one exercise just "bend and thrust"... I thought 'bed what and thrust it where?? Then I figured out it's what Crossfit calls a burpee (only minus the push-up in the middle and the jump at the end, I think).

This thread is making me really sad because I'm never posting in it anymore.

I must go do some now...

Okay, so the key is to do them in smaller sets once you've fallen off the horse. And slower.

10 + 10 + 10 + 20

= 116,445

I've worked myself sick so I'm "resting" by not running at all until I fight off this bug. Of course, this gives me the time and the patience to execute my nightly exercises carefully and slowly. My overhead squats are looking decent again and my push-ups will be back on track soon, I'm sure of it. Gotta add the ab work back in when it doesn't make me wanna go pukey.

You drink? Omigod. (rereads your pontifications in his PM box)

What are you drinking? You need to share. I'm a poor old army boy.

God, I wanted alcohol so bad last night. Just two beers. Or something.

...

45+51+51+51. Diamonds suck. Only because my arms are 12 foot 12.

Uh... (counts)

117,390 + 198 (does two more)

200...

117,390 + 200 = 117,590 (does ten more)

117,600

Thanks, Crompsin. I am trying. My goal for the end of 2007 is to be able to do 100 in one go. I am on the way, currently working at 75 in 3 sets... stopping when I have to, but finishing those sets always.
