I did discover the 100 pushups programme last year hundredpushups.com/ - and at that time I could only do 6 in a row - so didn't get very far with the programme. I must have gotten "stronger" in the meantime because I have returned to the prog and can now do 11 in a row - which means that W2D1 gets me doing sets of 9,11,8,8,11 with 1 minute rest between each set - giving me a total of 47 pushups in the workout. I only do this about 3 days in a week

You may not have noticed it in your running....Yet Bazza1234 but its an excellent conditioning program so overall you will be improving, your strength is obviously improving so well done!!

Hi @Bazza1234 I did the challenge but, once again, when a challenge is done it tends to take a very far back seat😚. I don't practice them nearly enough. I completed the 5 minute plank challenge, then decided I could probably use those 5 mins elsewhere.

There is a Push Yourself community on health unlocked - it's not very active but was set up to get us doing more exercises, including the 100 push up challenge.
