Not much happening today. I took the day off from training today because I have a late meeting tonight and will not make it to CrossFit, which means I will be CrossFiting on Friday. The hardest part about rest days is eating less calories. I typically burn between 500-700 calories on workout days so I am able to eat about 2300-2500 calories. On days off I try to stay around 1800 calories.
Tonight I am going to do the max push up test so that I can start the 100 Push ups training plan. I want to see if this thing really works. I am hoping to knock out at least 25, which will put me on week 3 of the program.
Every year on our Christmas vacation in Vermont I have a max push up competition with my wife's sister. That girl can rock the push ups. We usually end up doing push ups it in the middle of a bar or on a downtown side walk. You never know when the challenge will be thrown down. So I better be pushing 50-60 reps by Christmas. I would love to crank out 100 push ups!!!
Anybody want to try the program? Come on...its only 3 days a week for 6 weeks.
I was checking out my Google Analytics today and notice that I have had at least one visitor from 42 of our 50 beautiful states. Come on Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Iowa, Oklahoma, Delaware and Vermont!!!
I also noticed that Jessie's Figuring It Out blog is one of my top 3 traffic sources. You rock Jessie. Thanks!!!

hey
i was doing the hundred push up challenge as well, but 'things' got in the way and i kinda stopped. ive been trying to get back into it and i know that i am just making excuses right now and should stop typing this and start doing push ups! lol
good luck and keep me posted on how its going!!
I was just thinking about starting the 100 pushup challenge too. As well as the 200 sit-up challenge. I'll start tonight! Let me know how your max test goes!
Also, that's hilarious about the pushup throwdown you'll be having around Xmas time...you better beat your sister-in-law!
I started the 100 push-up challenge (again)on November 14th; this is my third attempt with this difficult challenge. I had to start on week 1 as I have zero upper body strength right now. I am also doing the 200 sit-up challenge that Zoe mentioned; I am confident that this will be much easier for me than the push-up challenge.
I love your site, I'm happy to direct people to it! You have so much useful information. Also, I might do that challenge with you! Sounds fun, I just don't want to get all buff. :D (Now the 200 sit-up challenge sounds like something I totally need to get behind.)
Jessie is quite awesome, this is very true :-P
I was just sitting here thinking that the onehundredpushup challenge sounds scary...but you know what...I think I'll do it.
Not gonna get anywhere if I don't try to push my limits.
