Thanks, Paul. I’ve actually made a bit of progress since then, and the knee has healed up nicely, so things are on the right track. Looking at ikkyu sometime this year, so I’ve got some time to keep at it before I need to sweat a black belt test!

You can do it. I trained in Shuri-Ryu for several years. We got to the point of timing the physicaL not just doing them. We got them done well under an hour. Remember, transcend your ability and find a dedicated workout partner. Good luck.

The abs are what I’m sweating, especially the way my crunches go. That tears it: I’ll start with push-ups and do some crunches on the side until I’m ready to tackle the 200 program.

Sorry to hear about the knee, but good luck on the Pushup program! I did the One Hundred Pushups plan for a while, but I started on Week 2 and made it four weeks. I tell you what, though, I wouldn’t do it after doing a lot of situps, though. I had to do what Sensei Ramon here in AZ called “The 300″, which was 100 pushups, 100 situps, and 100 burpees. You need your abs to keep your body supported during pushups, and after 100 of them, it was awfully hard to keep my belly off the ground while doing the burpees
