    I did 75 (3 sets of 25) before my 2nd Pfizer dose yesterday.

    A little tired and groggy today. We'll see if I can knock out some this afternoon.

    Did 210 today.

    Couple of bad days due to extended car travel on weekend but still think I’ll be okay for the month goal.

    Up to about 800 total.

    Pro tip: After your push-ups are done for the day, find someone and say, "You can't roll with this swoll!" and then point at your pecs.

    Makes it all worth while...

    I had an acupuncture appointment today and told my guy I was afraid I would blunt the needles. He chortled.

    Got home from work earlier than usual and thought, sweet, I'll have a beer while the sun is up. 1 Jade IPA down.

    Then I remembered I'm supposed to do 100 push-ups today. Oops. I recall trying to run after beer and not repeating that mistake a second time.

    But the push-ups weren't as bad as feared. Maybe anaerobic exercise is easier.

    100 down tonight no tougher than usual. 400 done for April. I'm going to rest up for a bench work-out Friday and then will resume the push-ups next Monday.

    I'll be sure to ask beergoddess if getting swoll makes a beer belly sexier.

    Depends on which part. In the Florida swamps, “Call animal control because these pythons are on the loose” is preferred.

    Most days I do my last set around midnight...everyone's usually asleep. If I woke up Mrs. Elvis after I finished my pushups and told her "You can't roll with this swoll", I suspect her reaction would be less than positive (and she'd likely think I was talking about something else!).

    So far I've done 150 each day (I started on the 8th). They are not getting easier. Might take a day off later this week to see if that helps.
    I got on a roll yesterday and did 250 to reach 1000 for month/week. I can feel it this morning. I've been doing a set of 50 to start each day (usually do other sets of 25 along the way) and this morning's 50 were tough.

    I just use - "I would flex for you but I like this shirt too much."
    "That young man has an extra step on his ladder the rest of us just don't have."

    I’ve been known to flex and say, “call the plumber, these pipes are about to burst”.

    Narrator: They weren’t.

    We would also have accepted: "Someone get me a Band-Aid. I'm so cut."

    I didn't update yesterday. The day after my vaccine was rough but I was able to do 75.

    Felt much better today, knocked out 125!

    A little math and it seems I've done 1090 for the 14 days. I'm still on average.

    100 a day for eleven days and I'm halfway there. I'm feeling it a bit, though. Maybe I'll take a day off.

    Another 75 in the tank today.

    You're welcome.

    I did 150 yesterday and another 150 today. That's an 8 total of 1300 with 900 to go.

    It's after midnight and I'm working. I might try and knock out a few pushups since they can count against 'tomorrow' and I'll get a few hours sleep/rest before I try some more.
