    1. are you ladies getting 30 plus push ups on your knees or feet? just curious 🙂 awesome job. cant wait to get back in there….

      1. feet for me…although i got yelled at for lifting my feet on the hand release a couple times 😉

      2. Mine are from the toes too. Hand release make them a little faster for me for some reason… Come to Friday AM Eileen!

  7. How awesome is it to see all this success. Nice work everyone.
    25 Push-ups (increase of 7)/34 Sit-ups (increase of 1…abs of flab).
    Here is the real fun one. Fran 7:07 (65#/green)…which best my time from 28 days ago by 2 min 58 sec. Down 6.5# (which puts me under 200 for the first time in years…awesome).

  8. Okay, kiddos, here it goes….
    Max pushups today was 25. The first time around I got 14, so I improved by 11. I’ll take it since I recently put pushups on my sucklist…I’ve been going after them!
    Max situps today was 48. I got 40 situps the first time around so I improved by 8.
    My Fran time was 9:24 Rxed. The beginning Paleo Challenge Fran was the first time I did Fran Rxed, which was a big deal to me. I didn’t expect to take much time off of it since it really hadn’t been that long, BUT…my original time was 11:04 so I took off 1:40. Booya! Take than, Franny!:)
    Thanks for the support, CFNT! You’re an awesome community!

  9. Pushups: 34 (scaled from knees) <– an increase of 7 since last time
    Situps: 34 <– an increase of 3 since last time
    Fran: 8:43 (35# and a green band for pullups) <– 2# increase and 1:02 faster than last time. I still think my pullups were the world's ugliest, but oh well, something to work on.
    Also, lost 5#. That is all. 🙂

  10. Pushups 41 (+6)
    Sit ups 39 (+6)
    Fran 9:02
    Lost 7lbs.
    I’m a believer. Nice job everyone!

  11. Push-ups (regular): 35
    Sit-ups: 39
    fran: 7:42 (#65/green & blue
    Increased push-ups by 12, sit-ups by 6, and bested my Fran time by 2:55! Oh and the best part – down 9.5lbs!!!
    Thank you thank you to our wonderful CFNT family for putting this fantastic challenge on and being the best support system ever!!

    1. Congratulations Stephanie!!! I knew you would destroy your previous Fran time! And getting an extra 12 pushups is fantastic!! You deserve a post-paleo challenge treat now… I wish I could share my paleo carrot cake cupcakes with cashew nut frosting 🙂

  12. Max Pushups_30 (18APR12 @ 26)
    Max Situps_45 (18APR12 @ 49)
    FRAN_6:32 @65# and red band PU (18APR12 @8:14)
    Overall I am surprised by my decrease in Fran time and look forward to getting off the red band and having a truly RX’d Fran time. Thanks to Erica and Moises for their extra motivation tonight to keep me moving!

  13. Amazing work to all!!!
    So I won’t contribute all the success stories to the Paleo Challenge but I will most certainly contribute it to the amazing dedication and effort each of you put in on a daily basis.
    The best part from here… you can only get Faster, Stronger, and Fitter!!!
    We look forward to more future progress.
    Congratulations to all!!!!
