Just a quick update to say that I’ve officially completed day #1 of the One Hundred Pushups training program. My plan has been to mix these workouts in with my rowing regimen rowing, so I did the initial test shortly after an 8km row, and only managed to do ten before my form started to break down.
Given my initial performance, the first workout was supposed to be 7-7-5-4-Max (at least 5) with a 60 second break between sets. While it was a pretty easy workout overall, my lower back is a bit fried right now from all of the rowing. Thus, as with the initial test, I could really feel it in my abs worked to hold my body straight.
I’m assuming that the back thing will work itself out over time, especially because we’ll be traveling next week and I probably won’t be able to row while we’re away.

Well done.
Good start… Even though I get to cheat (knee push ups because of my ankle) I am very much looking forward to the challenge.
Good luck, im on week 2 at the moment. going well so far
