3,000 Push Ups in November 2026

I'm doing 3,000 Push Ups in November for Teenage Cancer Trust

This November, I'm doing 3,000 Push Ups and raising funds to help ensure no young person faces cancer alone. I'm taking on the challenge for Teenage Cancer Trust, the only UK charity who provides specialised nursing care and support for young people with cancer. I'd be grateful for your support.

Your donation, big or small, makes a difference. £25 could pay for an hour with a Youth Support Coordinator to help a young person cope with anxiety and isolation during cancer treatment. 

Thank you!

Day 2

Tuesday 3rd Nov
I did it again! I’m extremly sleepy so I’m just going to say: 40 normal PUs, 20 Diamond PUs and 40 pike PUs (my tricep is starting to give up)

Day 1

Sunday 1st Nov
I did it! I honestly thought that it would be impossible… after all, never before did I get the urge to do 100 push ups in a day. 

After writing the first post I did 1 set of 10 push ups. At the gym, where I had a push day, I did another 2 sets. And when arriving home I did the rest (all of them in sets of 10 reps). I had to use my knees only at the end of about 2-3 sets. Final count: 50 normal PUs, 30 wide PUs and 20 diamond PUs.

It is safe to say that I am very pleased (and shocked) with the result, though definitely I want to do some improvements like doing more reps in a set, doing different variations and maybe even doing more than 100/day (but who knows).

I think I’ll upload some progress pictures from time to time though today is not that day.

That being said, I want to add that this is an amazing opportunity to improve one’s mental and physical wellbeing by challenging it, while trying to raise funds for an important cause. I do hope that by doing this at least one teen would receive at least a little bit of help when fighting cancer.

The beginning

Sunday 1st Nov
I wanted to introduce myself quickly as the month has only just started. My name is Rihana. I’m an 18 year old student who tries to make the society a better place through small things, wether that is paying someone a compliment, holding the door open for someone or doing 100 push-ups a day😂. There is honestly not much to be said at this point besides: see you soon, I’ll better go and do my first 10 push-ups
