If you don't like burpees, they are also called squat-thrusts by some...but that's a less fun name!


I hate when I get to the end of my workout, am wiped, then realize I either haven't started or still have some of my push-ups left to do. Not as much as realizing I forgot right before I go to bed though

PP - Can you understand morse code?? Maybe your friend's shoulder is trying to communicate?

or it could just be old age setting in.

This is what I hate!

Or a cicada...PP could have a cicada in his shirt...a cicada produces a clicking sound as the tymbals buckle inwards....

Oooh...or a deathwatch beetle. Maybe it's deathwatch beetle. According to superstition, the sound they make is believed to forecast an approaching death. Oh...oh sorry about that, PP. Maybe you shouldn't be exercising Sorry to be a Debbie Downer...maybe you should get your affairs in order...just sayin'......

"maybe you should get your affairs in order"

Mrs PP may have an issue with that.

Freak...that's just mean!

Don't blame me--blame the beetle

Never trust a quiet joint!

Capone?

Snoop.

Oh good then my shoulders knees and ankles are totally trustworthy cuz there are days I sound like freakin' bubble wrap.

You sound just like Mrs. PP.

And if you knew me you would know that my arms are pushing up quite the load.

Actually, along with the rotator cuff tear the imaging showed a subluxated and flattened biceps tendon so I am thinking that may be the source of the sound.

I would hope her voice is a few octaves higher

Ok, all you BOL'er Pushup-Doer types: drop and give me 49!!!! Today is day 49 of the challenge. How are we doing? I did half of mine this morning, will do the other half tonight. It's starting to stress my shoulder so I may have to look for some modification (torn rotator cuff last year) to ease up the pressure on the shoulder.

I did 30 this morning...I, too, have to be careful of my shoulder, so I make sure to hold everything in close and so far, so good!

I get clicking and an occasional sharp shooting pain in my elbows during mine, but usually if I shift my hand position it goes away long enough for me to finish.

I did 3 sets of 15 girly pushups this morning. I break them up with a minute or two of easy stretching.

I missed a few days while on vacation, but I'm back on track. I did 55 today, split in three sets.

I've had shoulder problems in the past, but I read that you should keep your hands directly under your chest and your elbows tight to your body. I haven't had any pain so far.

50 first thing this morning. Tomorrow is the big decision day. Do I push the shoulders to 51 in a set or do one set of 50 and one set of 1?
Let your concience be your guide.

I did 2 sets of 20 with about a minute or less in between. So later today or tonight will be a cake walk!

3 sets of 15 and 1 set of 10 this morning. It just didn't seem right to only do 5 more.

I did 30 girly ones this morning. Saving the rest for tonight.

If you did one (1) pushup and its one more than you did yesterday, then you've done well!
So 30 girly pushups is doing just fine!

So...I've been doing sets of 20 each....some back to back, some with space depending on schedule/time. I was thinking how many set's that would be towards year-end. I think I will definitely be planning an increase in sets...that could take all day long!
