100 push-up a day challenge

[pack a bowl]

push-ups are kinda useless, crunches make more sense.

I've been doing a fair few push ups for quite a while now (150-200 per day, sets of 50), and my chest, back and side muscles have never looked so good!!

So anyone who says push ups don't work, then you're wrong!!

A recent (very good looking) girlfriend said she loved my side muscles (from push ups) - the best she'd ever seen in fact (and this is "beautiful" Italy, and she's 30), and that I'd got a great back and chest too!!

There's proof in the pudding for ya!!


Peace

I did a push up yesdterday when I read this...it was good...and so is this thread..inspiring to read..DD

 

[brothertupelo]

if i do just pushups without doing anything else, i get sort of hostile.
sun salutations from yoga are a good full body workout and you get the arm workout. 108 is a special number in yoga, some religious significance that i'm not entirely sure of. i doubt i could do 108, but i'll do some of those and then do the pushups.

 

[Hold Your Fire]

OK, I'm sore this morning, but I'll still get my 100 in today.

 

[L~B]

this is crazy so far I've done one set of twenty and one of 10 pu and 20 su lol 10 years ago in the navy i could do 1000 pu easy i've gotten soft...

 

[barletta]

Caught up with me yesterday, boy...

Only did 2 sets of push/pull ups, and today I'm hurtin. Taking today off to eat tunamelts and stretch.

58 days to 1 arm pullups.

[blynx]

10 today. 1 more than yesterday and yea i'm sore.

For someone just starting out, is it better to do them daily? or every other day?

 

[Hold Your Fire]

Just starting out, I'd stick to EOD. Harder today, than yesterday, to get these 100 done! Tomorrow I may just do 10 x 10, and take most of the day to do it, instead of getting them done asap!
Gotta go stretch!

 

[N. Accumbens]

Depending on soreness Blynx, either every other, or do less one day, just to kinda keep the muscles awake..like three...then do more on the other day, like push it...or do reps.

I'm post-stomach virus...and haven't done sh*t since that happened in Nov....except chopped wood and shovelled snow..hehe
So I do one day on...one day half as much...but once you get a feel for what you can safely do, it's good to push it.
Peace..off to do a rep!
NAcc

Good idea by the way...ICers are gonna kick butt!

 

[L~B]

well to finish off my work out for today I sprayed 2 lts of penetrator and liquid light my forearms felt like rocks afterwards so I decided that was enough...

 

[Megas]

I wont be hitting 100 today arms are just too sore, I'm giving it a good go but I just can't I guess my body is making me take a rest day. I'm being honest at least I'm hoping tomorrow my arms will be feeling better. They are pretty stiff so I figure if anything its a good sign. you guys feeling it in your stomach/abbs too?

I did notice this however, I'll be the first to admit my pushups are far from perfect especially keeping proper breathing and counting seems like something simple but in out in out and counting is proving to be difficult lol I dunno how the guy in the one video can hold a conversation while doing it but he prolly has 10000000 more under his belt than I do.
So in single sittings I've gone:
day 1, 8 reps.
day 2, 15 reps
day 3, 22 reps
So I am finding I'm improving in how many I do at 1 time. I think improving my breathing is whats helping. I also got rid of those perfect pushup things they ended up hurting my wrists more thnan just using my hands do.

 

[Greyskull]

FIGHT THE PAIN, MEGAS!!!!
A few more days and it shall pass.

I am not felling anything in my abbs except the captain crunch I had for breakfast! I should probably do more sit ups ha ha...

Megas- I wear work-out gloves with wrist straps when using my perfect pushups and found that it helps a lot!
