One Hundred Push Ups

Update: This is how I looked before, This is how I looked at various stages of the process. Getting there, I think.

This page is for tracking my progress through the One Hundred Push Ups plan, which I started at the end of January 2009. I’m following the full plan as described here. I printed out the PocketMod version, and keep it in my wallet.
