Pass or Fail?: Week 5-6 Intersession Test

It's time to test myself for progress again. The test is simple: How many consecutive push-ups can I do? The minimum this time is 45 reps. Let's take a look at where I am...
Fifty-three. That's it. My form started to break down at that point, so I stopped. Yeah, that's more than 45, but the test wasn't just doing 45. Past that, the number push-ups decides what column of the workout I pursue for the next week. Column 2.

This the first time my pace has slowed since I began the program. Am I disappointed? Nope. Look how far I've come. I'm actually quite pleased with myself. My chest is solid now, I can do more than 50 push-ups at a go, and I've shown the ability to get with and stick with a program.

See you in a couple of days for the first day of Week 6!
