    I usually get 3/4 of the way through the max set and rest for a couple of seconds in the 'up' position, then carry on. Can't do them all as one just yet

    I wonder if we could get access to the Lose To Win board of Retroids so we could each make our own thread to detail exercises and weight loss whilst motivating others.

    Week 3 Day 1: 14, 18, 14, 14, 22. Total: 82
    Week 3 Day 2: 20, 25, 15, 15, 25. Total: 100
    Week 3 Day 3: 22, 30, 20, 20, 28. Total: 120
    Week 4 Day 1: 21, 25, 21, 21, 34. Total: 122
    Week 4 Day 2: 25, 29, 25, 25, 42. Total: 146

    Minimum reps was 36, just pushed untill I couldn't get back up again and managed to get to 42 reps.

    + For the Cardiovascular side of things I ran 6km at 10km/h Which was 36mins. Did it on a running machine which kept the speed constant and on an incline of 2%.
    + I feel that doing these push-ups are really helping my strength, but I wouldn't want to fall back on my stamina/ Cardio; So I'm running much more.

    I was supposed to do 28 on my last set which would have been the fifth, then my kids started fighting and disrupted my flow when I was at 20. So I did two more sets of 21 and 20 respectively. This is only because at the end of Week 6 it has you doing a volume of 175+ total so I figure why not throw in an extra set or two especially since i didn't make my last set.

    Ummm,

    C'mon people, it would be awesome just for all of us to make it to at least 50 max reps, after that I can understand getting bored.

    Did it in the morning this time, I don't think I'm a morning person as it was a hardass slog. No extra sets this time.

    Not you, you're being consistent and making gains. I do need to do my crunches however, just got back on my pullups as well, I had a bit of tendinitis that I was waiting to go away. 192lbs now and 19% bodyfat compared to 220lb and 27.5% Bodyfat as measured just after Christmas.

    Cool man. I would suggest doing a fitness blog type thing like Sangrita, Raonak and myself. Just detail your personal progress in there and your other workouts. There is a fairly common business saying out there: "What's measured gets managed.". And since I've been tracking my progress using my iphone and various apps (A person could simply use google spreadsheets if they don't have a smartphone) it's sorta like an RPG. Maybe I'll get a cool force push power on my next level.
