Did my 50 as soon as my feet hit the floor. Its my rule for me. It gets them done and wakes me up. It also gives the cat something to do as she likes to get on my back while I do them.
Weird cat.

I did mine! I've forgotten 2-3 days already though.

I make up for it the next day by doing that day's and 2x the number for the day I missed as punishment. I'll either learn, or get stronger, maybe both.

I'm still in! Haven't done them yet today though. I usually remember right before I go to bed.

I've been doing odd day pushups (no catch-ups). Up til now I've been doing full floor pushups, but I think after 20 I'm going to have to do some of them on the counter. My muscles aren't building up as quickly as the numbers! [missing BOL bicep curl icon]

The weekend will be traditional pushups.

HA! There are handles and a chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream belly eek

I quickly did my pushups for today while no one was outside my office. Maybe I should close my door and shut my blinds.

No...people will talk ["I don't even want to know what he is doing in there!"]

The window in my office that looks out into the hallway is about waist high so I do it below that so no one can see me. I did them behind my desk last week and my co-worker thought I passed out because all she could see were my feet sticking out! laugh grin

Forgetting is starting to get a bit annoying. Not that doing 41 today is much worse than 20 yesterday and 21 today...but at some point I probably need to try harder to remember!

Thats why I do them as I get out of bed. There are some days I'm lucky to remember my name, much less pushups. Thus the habit of just hitting the floor and getting them done. Plus its highly entertaining for the dogs and cat. smile

I forgot to do them Saturday and Sunday. Did burpee pushups yesterday. I'll try to squeeze in my past due pushups before the end of day.

I took my new (Brooks) Glycerin 11s for a run this morning. (the blue and silver version, for Freak's benefit) I'm not sure how I feel about them yet. I got persuaded to try them, and told them they should work better for me than the Ghosts, but change is hard, and my feet were a little sore by the end, mostly on the outer edges. Might have to get used to it, or might not be able to. I hate new shoes, for that reason. frown

I missed a day or two, but on the days I remember, I've been doing 50, waiting for the calendar to catch up.

Bite your tongue!

The Insanity instructor was informing the class the importance of wearing proper footwear. He said cross training shoes would be a better choice than running shoes.

All I heard was "permission to buy new shooz!"

When I was doing PT, my feet would sometimes hurt because I was doing all these balancing/stabilization exercises in running shoes. So I'll second your instructor's recommendation, Freak.

Permission to buy shooz, granted.
