1095 days = 3 years since this push up streak started.   The Total # of push-ups averages to 115/day, which is perhaps a bit more than I originally expected.  That stated, I have done far fewer max effort days that I originally expected and probably as a result have not yet done 100 good push ups in a row...I should try that again soon though, I guess.   Oh, and max effort bench press on Monday resulted in sets of 10, 10 and 9 for same weight (155 lb.) as last week...so, one more rep in final set.
