Day 1, Week 1: Hundred Pushup Program

I’ve decided to use the hundred pushups program to structure my strength exercises in general: pushups, situps, bicep curls (30 lbs, each arm), and dumbbell lifts (30 lbs, each arm).

My max reps at the end were the absolute limit. On the situps, I slowed down, but kept going for 51 reps. Ouch that hurt.

Set tally, “-”=1-minute recovery period. “[#]“=max

Pushups:  10-10-8-6-[25], 59 total.Situps :  10-10-8-6-[51], 85 total.Curls  :  10-10-8-6-[ 9], 43 total.Lifts  :  10-10-8-6-[10], 44 total.
