So I was browsing Scrapheap/Failheap and saw a suggestion for a 100 pushups program. I debated doing it for a few days but ultimately decided that I could do it despite my historically low upper body strength. I've suggested it on Twitter to the #tweetfleet and #fitfleet ("Official" site), and several people are also going to be doing it. So I cordially invite you to do the 100 pushups program with us, and further invite you to join the #fitfleet for general health.
Right now, the #fitfleet is sharing activities on RunKeeper - but it supports many kinds of activities (even 'other' which I use for my lunch basketball games). If you can't run, feel free to record walks, bike rides, swims, or even dancing lessons. :)

No, but you can probably do it between typing furiously in chat channels and ship spinning.

Count me in... although for starters I'll be doing girly pushups (I'm allowed I'm a chick). Stupid car accidents and wrecked muscles and stuff >.>

Awesome! My initial test was only 12 pushups... But I'm already doing way better - 15 in a set last night (53 total). -- Eve Forum ***** Extraordinaire On Twitter

Edited by: vulnevia on 26/04/2011 12:32:50 I've been looking at body weight training for a while now, but never got started. Maybe it's time I did start now
There's also the 200 sit ups, 200 squats and 150 dips programs to look into. I would love to find a similar for working the back, since you want to have a strong back if you gonna train your abs.
Edit: Oh, and if your wrists are as weak as mine and hurts like hell after doing a few push ups, buy a sets of push ups bars. You wrist-to-hand is straight and not at a 90 degree angle (that's my bigegst problem with push ups).

Edited by: Slade Trillgon on 29/04/2011 22:45:35 I do my own stuff and 100 push ups in a row is not one of my goals, but I applaude the urge to get in better shape as that is my line of work.
I will point out Scott Sonnon's youtube profile as he has numerous videos of excellent body weight and non-traditional weight training exercises utilizing club bells, bands, and kettle balls.
The main video he has up is a great one of tactical gymnastics as he lists it, I prefer to call it tactical spacial navigation. His video for the Ape Step you will give a few excellent exercises for leg and core strength and leg and core flexibility.
I hope all here will get something from these links.
EDIT: A new post to his page hits on something that i have been seeing since before I finihsed my collegiate studies. Overtraining is a problem that is plaguing the active populations world wide. It seems that people either over do or do not do. We as a species seem to find it hard to find a good balance.
