Round 9...

After taking a few days off,  I resumed my push-up regimen today.  The conversation of my campaign came up last night at my father-in-laws birthday dinner ( Happy birthday Barry if you're reading this!) where I was telling he and DJ that I try to put together a strategy before starting instead of just trying to pump out as many as I can.  That's when I was introduced to the "walking pushup" (explained here).  So I gave it a try.  First two times were a breeze; 2nd two the burn starting to kick in; 5th and 6th brought a  more intense burn; After the 7th and 8th time my arms were numb.  I was seriously thinking that I wouldn't be able to lift my arms after I finished the 8th set;...After the 9th, I lost the desire to ever do push-ups again.

10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1= 55

55 x 9 = 495!!
