You're all mad!!! Good luck with it though. You guys just doing press ups or doing anything else to balance it out?

As part of a balanced exercise routine I have just done 5, 5 then 18 proper pressups. The reason for doing 18 was that I did 17 yesterday, so I will always try to make the last set a bit harder until I only just make the 3 x whatever. Who says I am mad?

Sounds like a good way of keeping things ticking over while it is freezing outside. But I think I'll stop at a full marathon ie 3x26, that'll be Boxing Day if I assume I started on 1 December. *Rushes off to make sure he can do 3x4*
Not sure how I will do the last .2 for marathon matching. Maybe 2x26 plus 1x27 will see me racing through the line.
Go for it.

3 x 5 done :-). I really like Matt's idea of aiming at 3 x 33. That's going to be my goal too...3 x 100 would be a bit pie in the sky.

Have you not heard of Mylo of Croton, Dogtanian? Little steps and you'll get there, no matter how tough a task you take on.
(Mylo of Croton was challenged to carrya full-grown bull for a given distance. He went and got himself a newborn calf and carried that along the course every day. As the calf grew he got stronger and by the time it was fully grown he could manage the taks and win the bet.)
I just did 3 X 6. Huraah!

Come on then, Pammie. You only need to start with 3 X 1. Even the greatest oak began with a little acorn. Even the longest journey started with a single step.

Quite the philosopher aren't you
Will do give me a little while wait till my dinner goes down. If this works may actually try this for squat thrusts as well
