Day 15 of the Push-Up Challenge

Starting the day with 3130 push-ups done! Since I reached my goal of 3000 push-ups in just 15 days, I’m now shifting my focus to quality over quantity. I’ll still do a minimum of 100 push-ups per day, but I’ll also incorporate other exercises into my routine.

The Exercise Mix

In addition to push-ups, I’ll be including sit-ups every day, matching the number of push-ups. I believe in a well-rounded workout, so I’ll also incorporate a leg exercise that corresponds to the number of push-ups. To begin, I’m adding dumbbell squats for a great lower body workout.

Curtis Matthews, Exercise, Natural Bodybuilding, Tampa

At Anytime Fitness in Westchase Florida, my wife Gina and I have resumed our regular gym training routine. We prefer this gym because of its convenient location and excellent facilities. It is the perfect place for us to achieve our fitness goals.

During one of our gym sessions, we decided to take some videos of ourselves goofing around. I was showing off my chest bouncing skills, while my wife Gina was demonstrating her incredible strength by doing pushups. And let me tell you, these were not your typical girly pushups. Gina performed them with pushup bars, adding an extra level of difficulty and showcasing her impressive upper body strength.

I have to admit that I was surprised by how many pushups Gina was able to do. She managed to complete an impressive 13 pushups with ease, which is a testament to her hard work and dedication to fitness. As for me, I continue to work on building my pecs and getting them to bounce to the beat.

At Anytime Fitness, we have access to a wide range of equipment and classes, which makes it easy to mix up our workouts and keep things interesting. We are constantly pushing ourselves to reach new fitness milestones and enjoy the process of becoming stronger and healthier.

So, if you’re looking for a great gym in the Westchase Florida area, we highly recommend Anytime Fitness. It’s a welcoming and supportive environment that caters to people of all fitness levels and goals. Come join us and see for yourself how fun and rewarding fitness can be!
