I think I will just track this here instead of starting a new thread. My first benchmark testing was done today at the gym. Next Wednesday and Friday will be other tests of some sort as well.

Initial results:

The first three were of the "how many can you do in a minute" variety

Pushups: 7 from knees, 9 more elevated (arms on bench instead of the floor)
Situps: 33 crunches (I did one situp, sort of, probably shouldn't have counted, I can't do a full situp yet)
60 degree TRX Band Rows: 23

Plank: held for 51 seconds, done from knees instead of toes
Half Mile Run: 7 minutes 31 seconds

I'M SO OUT OF SHAPE. But I'm sure this is way more than I could have done 3 weeks ago when I first signed up. And I'm looking forward to doing better next month. I have no idea what the other two testing sessions are going to be, but I like the idea. Obviously measuring progress is something that is very appealing to me.
