Push-Up Challenge, Day 3

by Denise // 6 July, 2009 // Comments off

I began day 3 three with a set of 12 manly pushups. After resting 60 seconds, I then attempted 17 manly push-ups, which was no easy task. I must admit, I fell to the floor around the twelfth one, but once I regained my composure and my strength, I finished the set. Next, I did 13 girlie push-ups and finished with another set of 13 manly push-ups. The last set was certainly a struggle to squeeze 13 more manly push-ups out of me, but I did it. Hopefully, I can do it again on Wednesday.

Ok, way to go!!!! Seriously you are inspiring me!
I did mine tonight but I am no where near the level you are! I did 6,5,5,4, 6 and then finished with 8. It’s a start!

Seriously, can you make another video? I want to see if I am doing them right. I have also added in “Waiting for the Coffee to Brew” push-ups in the morning (done at an angle off the counter-tops).
