Like myself and many others did in 2024, the time is now to begin this year's efforts into finding success. Step in, and get motivated by the success of others. Set your benchmarks and see how quickly you can achieve them. This year I am going to do another 50,000 pushups, along with climbing at least once every 2 weeks at an indoor facility. Jogging, running, strength training, and core workouts will also be completed. Log them here. If you think you can do 100 pushups a day, vote in the poll! If you vote, you must participate because your efforts will inspire others. Trust me on this. Let's get after it. |

I'm turning 60 on January 7th, and have been doing sets of 10-15 wide grip pull ups, underhand chin ups and sets of 40 pushups using those "perfect pushup" handles as they are more comfortable than flat handing it on the floor. I've done some chin ups/pull ups tonight and will be doing more tomorrow along with pushups. I usually will get in some sets each morning while getting ready for work to get my blood flowing. I may see about some kind of home gym setup this new year. |

| Thanks! I got a couple more sets of chin ups in before calling it a night. I've got the chin up bar in the doorway by the kitchen so it's always right there and easy to use. I have a collapsible dip stand down in the living room that I need to get back to using more often for body weight dips. |

Tagging for some motivation. I started strong last year and gave up before the end of the January. I have everything I need at home, and still don't use it. I do climb regularly, but I don't use the gym part there. Climbing is so much fun mentally and physically, and I feel great afterwards, but I have some kind of blockage towards any other gym type working out. Gotta grow the fuck up and get disciplined and consistent. |

My goal for 2025 is to climb at least 100' in a day and do that once every 2 weeks. If my time permits more, so be it.

Back to the office tomorrow and Friday and definitely not ready to return to work

Back to the office tomorrow and Friday and definitely not ready to return to work I've been trying to do them for a while, and I try to do pullups or pushups every day if I can, and always do some in the mornings before work. I need to get back to dumbbell curls again. I'm heading back to work tomorrow after being off since last Thursday. I'm NOT looking forward to it, but at least I have the weekend coming up quickly. One thing that sucked was my new doc telling me I'm pre diabetic late last year, so dropping sugar and cutting carbs has made eating different this past year. I try to eat a lot of rotisserie chicken for protein, but I've noticed my energy level isn't always what is used to be. Tomorrow morning will be pullups and chin-ups, and some pushups if I have time.  And I think one more set of pull-ups need to be squeaked out before I hit the sack. Good night! |

This was today's efforts: 1715. 50 reps in 0:42. 1719. 50 reps in 0:48. 1724. 50 reps in 1:22. This last set is going to break me 1733. 50 reps in 0:54. 1800 YTD. I may, after getting in to February, decide to split my sets up throughout the day and see if I can knock out 65-65-60-60 and achieve a total of 250 in say 4 hours. But maintaining the minimums per set and at least 1000/week is what drives me. Do it however you want to, but make the effort consistent and when you want to push yourself a bit more, figure out how to add just a few more and see if your daily requirements can be surpassed a bit. |
