Hundred Pushups Week 4 Day 1

Feel weak. I felt tired all weekend. I don't know if I have a bug, or it is my body focusing resources on muscle building. Seems to me that the extra day break between Friday and Monday hurt my performance. Is that possible?

I'm doing column two in the printout this week. It felt good to make it to the minimum required on the last set, 22 push ups! My total for today, my 10th workout, was 90 pushups. That's just one push up better than last Monday.

Here is a chart, with day, number of repetitions for each of the five sets and total push ups:
  1. Mon. 10, 10, 8, 6, 16 = 48
  2. Wed. 12, 12, 10, 10, 16 = 60
  3. Fri. 15, 13, 10, 10, 17 = 65
  4. Mon. 12, 12, 9, 8, 16 = 56
  5. Wed. 16, 13, 11, 11, 18 = 69
  6. Fri. 15, 15, 12, 12, 17 = 71
  7. Mon. 25, 17, 17, 15, 15 = 89
  8. Wed. 22, 17, 17, 15, 25 = 96
  9. Fri. 25, 19, 19, 17, 24 = 104
  10. Mon. 22, 16, 16, 14, 22 = 90
I'm still wondering how to maintain these gains after the 6 or more weeks it may take to get to 100 consecutive pushups.

Join me in the hundred pushups challenge.
