I just finished the 2nd week of the hundred pushups training program. So far, it has been easier than I thought. Here are a few things that I learned.

• don’t forget that day 2 and day 3 of each week allows for a longer rest period between sets
• the whole program is made of S.M.A.R.T. goals.
  • specific - # of pushups, frequency, lots of details
  • measurable - you can see each day and each week how you are progressing
  • attainable - we’ll see if this one applies
  • realistic - according to the website, at the end of week 6, you should be able to do 100 consecutive pushups. Throughout the program, the most consecutive pushups that you do at one time is only 42-56 (depending on which track you are on).
  • timely - if 6 weeks isn’t timely and specific, I don’t know what is.
• For the first 2 weeks, each session should take less than 10 minutes.
