100 Push-ups?!?!

That's right, as of this morning, I have officially started the 100 push-up challenge. In a mere six-weeks I will be fully capable of busting out 100 push-ups. Or at least that's the goal. I'm already off to a rough start--for my first exhaustion test this morning I thought that I would surely be able to do at least 10 "good" push-ups. Apparently that was too optimistic, because my arms caved as I was attempting to push back up on my seventh one. 

Now, before you get all judgmental about my fitness level (or lack thereof), let me defend myself by saying that I could very easily lay down right now and complete fifteen push-ups--they certainly wouldn't be pretty, but they'd be push-ups. But I decided that if I really want to see results from this program then I'm going to focus on doing the push-ups right, and doing them slowly. It may take a little bit more work, but hey, I can handle that. Especially if it gives me arms like this:

Just kidding :-D
