No worries, Jill. You're doing a great job! Actually your statement (or your trainer's) about push-ups being the perfect exercise is what made me join this challenge. I was planning to slack this month...

30 for me today.

Thanks, Georgiana. I seem to join challenges where I need a good kick in the butt. I definitely feel different and I can see where "guy" pushups will be a great core workout (when I get there).

Default Re: July Push-Up Challenge: See yourself get stronger in one month!

I am a new member just signed up today. I have been really struggling with exercise--Not enough time! BUT I have joined in hopes of chatting with others who are where I am, being motivated by them, and helping to motivate others as well. I started Induction on June 8th and started off doing SO WELL. I even got my office involved so I wouldn't be doing it alone BUT here I am upset with myself for 'falling off the wagon' for the last 2 weeks. I am committed to getting back on track so I committ to 500 for July. I am also going to commit to 500 Situps/crunches.

WISH ME LUCK...I'm off to a good start today!!
