Has anyone ever tried the 100 push-up challenge? Has anyone ever tried the 200 sit-up challenge? I am wondering, because I am looking at the programs: http://www.twohundredsitups.com/index.html http://www.hundredpushups.com/index.html#sthash.LdwAFJz5.dpbs They seem to be good, but I am not someone who tried exercise programs in the past. Wondering if anyone has some experience with these programs.
I used to do 300 push ups a night -- 3 sets of 100. I followed your link but didn't bother reading the whole thing. I simply started out doing as many as I could manage, then 3 sets of whatever that number was -- think it was 10 or 12. I ket doing this amount until I felt like I wasn't getting much return, and then I would increase the number by 5. In very little time I was up to 3 sets of 100 in about 30 minutes. After a while though, my wrists would start to hurt and I would stop for a while. Then I'd start up again and work my way back up to 100 per set for 3 sets. After doing sets of 100, after a while I wouldn't even start to feel anything until I got to about 80 or 90 in my second set. It's not really hard, you just slowly but steadily work your way up there.
Man second week 2nd day out of 3. I could only do 10 push-ups to start, I did 39 today, struggling towards the end.
During Marathon training months i do 100 Pushups a day with 150+ sit-ups. I need to get my ass back in gear.
