OMG. Ouch. That workout hurt.

Actual: 30,30,25,25,25,25,22,22,60
Daily Total: 264
Overall Total: 6424
I've really tried to maximize this week's workouts to get a final boost before shooting for the hundred this weekend.
So I made sure that every pushup was really good form, and I've really been trying to max out that last set.
The first two sets of thirty were no problem.
The next couple of sets hurt a bit, but I told myself "no problem" with those too.
The 3rd set of 25 was a little tougher, and I had to pause at number 20 on the fourth set of 25.
I managed the next couple sets (of 22) but paused around 17 or 18.
For the final set I let myself rest a full minute. That last set is a lot of pushups you know.
I got to 20 and paused, and thought let's do them in sets of 20 then. Pushed out another 20 and started on a final set of 20. Only made it to 10 before pausing again. Ok sets of 10 then... paused again 5 later, and then finished the final 5.
So, gasping for air with my head throbbing but I completed the final 60.
My heart's still thumping.

I know it :)
Fantastic workout Joe! Proud of you...
Good luck with Day 3 - you'll be fine!

You're going to get there. 264 in one night, crazy.
NFL theme song is a good idea.
I think you are ready for 100. My theory is that when you exceed 250 push ups a day, you should be able to get to 100.
I think your right. Next Saturday I'm take'n them down
