I used a stopwatch so I'm going to throw in that the elapsed time was 16:34

This is MUCH better to do with a partner, so you have someone to push.

ARMS HURT

Round 1: 12 completed, 13th set 4 pushups
Round 2: 10 completed, 11th set 5 pushups
Round 3: 8 completed, 9th set 6 pushups
A total of 184 pushups if I calculated correctly.

The world record on consecutive pushups seems to be 10,507 by Minoru Yoshida (JAP) in 1980. Way to go

Did some nice training with Disciple and a new guy on campus! Finished up with this workout! That was at around 5:15, I don't remember the sets but I believe :

Total pushups : 243
Rest time between was 10 seconds cause it was hella cold outside in the shade

we wanted to keep warm!

That was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. Plus I typically use a wider hand placement than RX'ed.

9/8
