I have to depart from crafting for a minute so I can present some exciting news: I just did 10 "real" (hands & toes) pushups without stopping! I'm following the program I found on hundredpushups.com and I am so amazed at how far I've come in one week. I took my Initial test on New Year's Eve and I was able to do 3 pushups before collapsing. For the next 3 days, I followed the schedule on the website, such as 2-rest-3-rest-2-rest-2-rest-max (as many as you can do). The idea is after 6 weeks you will be able to do 100 straight. It may take me a little longer than 6 weeks, but the fact that I went from 3 to 10 in 8 days is incredible! Totalling it up, I've done 75 pushups this week. And it may sound crazy, but I feel like my belly has shrunk a little bit already. If anyone's interested, it is totally free to get the workout plan!
