100 Push-Ups a Day in November 2024

Inclined

Soooooo still recovering so I've let myself off a bit and done inclined push ups the last 3 days.
Again, don't forget!!! I started 2 weeks early so I'm still well ahead of the game!

Back to it

I have to be honest and let you know that I've not done any push ups for a week. I've been very ill indeed, I ever cancelled gigs and I NEVER cancel gigs, the show always goes on.
Please remember that I did start 2 weeks early though and I am going to be back on it tomorrow morning.
On my honour as a Girl Guide.

Sigh

Okay so, the US election results have made me very unhappy today. Not feeling very optimistic (I usually am very upbeat) about the future.
I did my 100 push ups inbetween punching out some frustration and quite a few squats.
Can we all just agree fascism is bad please? I thought we had but, evidently, we're not convinced quite yet.

Walking to the gym...

I'm working late today so I can get a couple of hours in at the gym today.
I read somewhere last night that Scott Hall didn't do a chest day at all and only ever did push ups so... yeah, I'm channeling the bad guy today.

Day 2

Ouch. Another busy day but still managed to sneak them in. Not much else to report today really 

The real day 1.

We returned home from an amazing holiday yesterday with extended family the day before yesterday. I managed to do my push ups this morning. It's been a super busy day, getting sorted after holidays, work, just general parent stuff. 
I've been thinking that I probably need to ease off chest and triceps day while I get through this but we will see how things progress...

T shirt arrived today!

I didn't know a t shirt was on the way! It's given me a bit of a boost to keep going. 
Today was challenging, I got my push ups in on top of my regular shoulder day training. 

I have an idea to help raise more funds though... (an idea I've used before for my treasured sister in law but I'll recycle it)

What day is it???

I've lost track of days! But I've still been on it and I will do this. 
Been super busy the last few days and it's been hard to find time to blog.
I've fit my press ups in at work, at home but the last 2 days I've incorporated them into my regular training. Stinging a bit today as a result of that!

Late night boost!

I've done A LOT of miles and gigs today. Even by my standards it's been a long day. I'm going to go upstairs (after an episode of Ludwig obvs) and smash them out. Which will either wear me out entirely or give me a late night boost of energy (winky face tongue out).

Day 2

Well... I'm definitely a morning person! Super busy today, had to do them just now. Lack of energy meant I really struggled. But I got them done. 

Day 1

Did it. Did it at the gym rather than my original plan to do it at work, where there'd be moral support.
Very challenging. Did them before my regular morning training to... ya know... get it our the way

Starting tomorrow obvs

Signed up today. Will do my first set at work tomorrow with the support of Mt magnificent colleagues 

I’m doing 100 push-ups a day in November for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to do 100 push-ups a day this November to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity).

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs. 

And with every push-up I do, I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
