    I managed 20 push-ups. That puts me at Rank 3.
    Find out where you’re at, then let us know.

    BOO! I was totally hoping to pwn you, bro. I’ll blame it on the big meal I literally just finished before the test. :)
    26 (before I lost good form) - Rank 3.

    What’s good form besides keeping your back straight? Upper arm parallel to ground, 90 deg elbow angle, head up, palms down or fists, 1 or 2 feet on ground? I propose we control these variables between everyone.

    If I remember correctly the first time I ever met Eric, before saying hello, he asked how many pushups I could do and had me get down on his push up bars.

    Those are wonderful comments, Jim. However, you failed to mention what “rank” you were.

    I know you’re doing this with me.

    It’s almost 90 degrees in the office because our air conditioner has been out of commission for a week. I ain’t gonna drop down here at work, but as soon as I get home I will promise you I will do a minimum of 21 push ups (maximum of 200 for sake of competition).

    How do you reply to a comment? I think you’re the only person that knows how to do it.

  8. On July 21st, 2008 at 4:12 pm timothyaaron Says:

    First of all, you won’t do push-ups because you don’t have air condition?!
    WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO TO JIM!?!

    Secondly, you can reply to a comment? Cool.
    (maybe you’re referring to the fact that author’s comments get indented, see bekah’s comment on her post)

    First of all air condition has nothing to do with it. Secondly, I consider myself to be the John Wayne type that doesn’t jump when someone yells jump. You’ll know when I start doing my push-ups tonight because it’ll rattle the pictures in your house. Thirdly, why does bekah know how to do it and no one else?

    Is there any correlation to your rank and which workout you do? Each week only has 3 columns with the hardest workout applicable to anyone higher than a mid rank 2 (”more than 10 push ups”).

    Alright, got 27 solid ones - ah the joy of going last. If I hadn’t gone last I easily would’ve stopped at 22. Screamed bloody murder the last few out.

    Day 1 complete. Max = 8.

  13. On July 23rd, 2008 at 9:11 am Jimmeh Says:

    Maxed out 15, but took all of the 60 seconds for breaks.

  14. On July 23rd, 2008 at 12:11 pm timothyaaron Says:

    Day 1: 13.

  15. On July 24th, 2008 at 9:08 am rob Says:

    Joining a day late… initial test of 52. I guess that puts me at rank 5. You think this program will really work?

  16. On July 25th, 2008 at 9:04 am jimmeh Says:

    Day 2 for me has yield 11.

  17. On July 26th, 2008 at 12:59 pm ericlo Says:

    finally got day two: maxed 13 didn’t notice the time increase between lvls >.<
