I am thinking my birthday goal might be a little hard to reach. I thought I might start doing Stew Smiths Navy Seals 12 week workout agian to push up the chins ups and push ups numbers. I bought this book a couple of years ago and the workouts helped me loss about 60 pounds. So I' m going to try it again.

New Record

July4-294,July5-53,july8-348 total 27456

The actual record for push ups in an half hour is:30 minutes: 2,354; Rolf Heck (GER), 13 Nov 2000 as recorded on the world record holders site. Set a new record for half hour push ups on the 4th-294. The is a long way from 2300 or so but progress is coming along. Managed to push a little harder and add about 30 push ups to the half hour total -don't know if that is real progress or just working a little harder than I did last time,but I'll take what I can get.

Maybe Christmas?

june 26-283,june28-129,june29-210,june 30-131,july1-125,july2-285,july3-133 total 26761

My birthday is August 1st,doing 700 chin ups in an hour by August might be a bit of a stretch. Might have to change the target to Christmas instead. None the less I am seeing a bit of progress. On June 17th I did 112 chins in a half an hour.I tested myself for a half hour on July 1st and again on July 3. I did 125 chins and 137 chins respectively. Progress is coming but not as quickly as one would hope. On July 2 I tested how many push ups I could do in a half hour-maxed out at 264. The world record for a half hour is over 2700 -so I won't be setting any records for push ups either-but lets see where I can get to by August.
