Can I borrow a feeling?

May 23,2010
40,475 pushups completed
959,525 pushups to go
1,318 pushups ahead of schedule

...'Cause I can barely feel my arms. They are getting large and in charge.... and the public is beginning to notice. Several comments have been made.

Comment #1: John, have you been working out? You're looking big
Comment #2: Dude, you are ripped up! I guess i've only seen you in loose baggy shirts.
Comment #3: Juice, you've really beefed up your game
Comment #4: (traffic cop): Sir, please roll up your window and leave those sweater pythons inside the vehicle. You are throwing off the depth perception of the other drivers.
Comment #5: That one's lightning the other one's steel... if the right don't get you, the left one will. (self-quote before I scared off a group of punks menacing an old lady)

Had the stomach flu since the last post, but still increased my pace. 2300 the last 6 days. As Keanu Reeves would say... "Whoa".

Peace out

A New Era Dawns - Pushups for All


May 7, 2010

35,825 pushups completed

964,175 pushups to go

1,050 ahead of schedule


26 days since my last post. The world waits with breath baited. What has TJ been up to? Curing cancer? Ridding the world of swine flu? Leading by example in the war against pushup deficiency? One at a time, people, so I've started with the pushups.


Thunder John has been busy. The 1,050 ahead of schedule might be a bit deceptive; i've had several days the past month when I have not been able to do many because of work commitments, T-ball coaching commitments, etc. When I have had the time, a normal day is 300-400+. Feeling very good with the pushups.


Here's a little something for the masses: a picture of me and Jane. You must teach your children well. And start them young on the pushups.



That is all.


Peace Out,

Thunder John
