50 day 10,000 Push-Up Challenge

Rules

– Athletes will complete 200 Push-ups or a scaled version of 100 Push-ups a day between August 5th and October 5th.
– Each athlete will be allowed 11 rest days through the course of the challenge.  This amounts to 1 rest day per week, plus 3 additional rest days throughout the course of the challenge.
– Athletes are not required to adhere to the above suggested schedule
– Push-ups missed from previous days can be made up, however any push-ups over the allotted 200/100 per day will not count towards future days.
– Push-ups done during CrossFit Austin movement preps, skill sessions, and WODs will count towards the days total, all other push-ups should be completed outside the box.
– We are working on the honor system here folks so be honest, and have fun getting stronger!

Standards:

– Chest must touch the ground

– Arms must be fully extended at the top

– Rigid mid line must be maintained (aka no Mt. Everest Butt or doing “the worm”.)

– Knee push-ups are encouraged if you cannot adhere to above standards in a standard push-up position.

– Push-ups can be partitioned throughout the day in any combination.

When Armageddon comes the only place you will survive is in the cave. So you will need the biggest, strongest motherf***r to move the stone, fight his way into the cave and move the stone back. It doesn’t matter how good of shape you are in, if you ain’t strong, you ain’t moving the stone.

An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order sign, just Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience. -Mitch Hedberg
