Call to Arms

August Call to Arms

.

On August 1st we will begin a 31 day push up challenge. On day 1 you will perform 1 push up.  Day 2, bang out 2 push ups. Day 16 … you guessed it, 16 push ups. If you miss a day that number gets added to your total for the following day (miss day 20 – you do 41 push ups on day 21). By the end of August, push ups will be less of a goat. The push ups must be executed with perfect form but do not need to be completed consecutively. You should work on doing more reps in a row each day.  You just need to get the prescribed number of push ups in before the day is over.  Choose a level and stick with it for 31 days.
