I would like to think I could do it with lots of practice and increased upper body strength. Obviously I am not the only one out there who thinks they could do 100 push-ups. Both J.D. at Get Fit Slowly and workoutmommy have blogged about One Hundred Pushups which is a six-week program that will end in the ability to do 100 push ups.
The programs involves doing sets of push ups three days a week and you only need 30 minutes for each session.The initial test makes you do as many good form push ups as you can. I was easily able to do 5 and made it all the way to 10 before I thought my arms were going to give out. Now I just sit tight until Monday when I start the training program. See you in 6 weeks!

This month, I am going to try and set some more specific goals. Besides the ones I have previously listed for my “always-there” goals, I also want to add my March Goals:
- Read one motivational book. It seems I have been focusing more on the healthy part of my life than the happy part. This will be a start on taking care of both sides.
- Reach March Goal Weight. My March Goal Weight is 153. That is a 5 pound weight loss for the month of March; a bit more than 1 pound per week.
- Exercise outside. I do not like to exercise in the great outdoors. Especially since my outdoors is a pretty seedy neighborhood. I would like to get to a park this month. If nothing else, out into the 40 degree weather I will be experiencing when I head to Tennessee next week for Spring Break/Apartment Hunting.
- Move Faster. I am right now only able to jog about 3 minutes at a time before having to walk again. I would like to increase that to between 4 & 5 by the end of the month.
Do you have any goals this month?
