Forrest Jooligan Oct 2022 7:30pm, 27 Oct 2022 324 posts	0 Forrest Jooligan Well done quimby. I was spurred on by having you just ahead 😆
Dave W Oct 2022 11:59am, 29 Oct 2022 8,998 posts	0 Dave W Had my flu jab yesterday, and my shoulder is a bit sore. So none today or tomorrow, but then it's full steam ahead for 60,000 by the end of the year (maybe)..
Muttley Oct 2022 8:39am, 30 Oct 2022 1,958 posts	0 Muttley Go for it Dave. I'm shooting for 52,000 by the end of the year. Today is the last day of week 43 and I'm 800 in deficit so it should be achievable. Currently doing 200 a day Mon-Fri, just need to throw in few Saturdays and I'll still have Sundays available for rest.
Iron_Mum Oct 2022 12:18pm, 31 Oct 2022 5,893 posts	0 Iron_Mum Well I was about to come on and celebrate hitting 11,000 exactly today. But then I read Muttley's post above, and suddenly I don't feel quite so heroic. But still - never done 11,000 full push-ups in a year before - never thought I could!
Muttley Oct 2022 1:27pm, 31 Oct 2022 1,963 posts	0 Muttley I'm flattered and gratified that anyone should think my efforts heroic I never used to do pressups or any kind of upper body work until I found this challenge a couple of years ago. By gradually building up the numbers (one set while the tea is brewing, another after I've put the milk and sugar in) you'd be surprised how many you can do in a day in how little time. You'll be reeling off sets of 20 soon, IM!
