Push-Up Ladder challenge with friends

From 10 to 100 push-ups in 30 days.

The push-up ladder starts at 10 push-ups and climbs a little every day until Day 30, when the target is 100. You can split the reps into as many sets as you like.

Levels make it a fair fight between friends: Easy is 70% of each day’s target and Hard is 130%, and the board shows each person’s level next to their name.

How to do it

  1. Check today’s target in the app.
  2. Split it into sets: 5 sets of 10 is easier than 50 straight.
  3. Use knee push-ups or an incline on Easy days, and keep a straight line from head to heels.
  4. Log your reps with the number pad; anything short of the target counts as partial.

The rules

  • 3 strikes allowed; when strikes run out you are out, but stay on the board to cheer the others.
  • No rest days.
  • Your day runs midnight to midnight in your time zone, and you can still check in until 3 AM.
  • Missed yesterday? Up to two earlier days can be logged, marked “logged late” for the group to see.

FAQ

Can a beginner do 100 push-ups after 30 days?

Many can do 100 reps spread across the day by Day 30. Pick the Easy level if push-ups are new to you; it scales every target to 70%.

Do the push-ups have to be in one set?

No. Any number of sets through the day counts.

Is the push-up ladder free?

The Push-Up Ladder is a Pro challenge for the person who starts it. Friends they invite join free.
