I've been doing 22 push-ups a day for 22 days and inviting people to join me, today I have both former Flemington Councilman Joey Novick as well as Detective Sargent Adam Polhemus.

If you'd like to join me in this quest to raise awareness to the high suicide rate among veterans, please contact me at strevelise@aol.com or follow me @realstevetrev.

Here are the rules:

  • Once you are nominated your 22 days start the following day.
  • Every day you record yourself doing 22 push-ups. Try your best to reach 22. If that means doing assisted (from your knees) push-ups or that you have to stop and take a break that's fine but try to get them all done in one video.
  • Every day you must nominate a different person. Try to choose people you think will want to do this and/or have the ability to do it.
  • And finally, have fun with this. This is a simple and fun way to get the word out about a matter that more people need to be aware about. These brave men and women put their lives on the line to protect our freedoms and its sad that so many veterans feel that suicide is the only way out.
