I have been watching this thread for long and I haven't try the challenge but I gave it a trial today, I have not been myself all through the day. My hands where even shaking when I was typing with my keyboard. It has really been along time. I just got motivated by many people here expecially Bitcoin price. The more you guys are participating on this challenge the more bitcoin price is pushing up quickly. I said let me follow the ministry a little for the growth of bitcoin. even though I may not last long in the challenge because I am just tired. Don't even know if I can even do this for a whole week. OgeNasty want to break my arms with his challenge 😂

From what you are describing, you might need to lighten up the level of your physical exertion in some kind of way.

From this kind of physical exercise it seems that if we are doing the exercise vigorous enough to cause physical effects (and improvement on our bodies) we will experience some pain and discomfort, but not so much pain and discomfort that we are not able to continue to function in our usual ways.

You can lighten up your level of exertion by doing fewer pushups per set, by doing fewer sets, by spacing out your sets with a bit more time between them and/or maybe by modifying your pushups to do easier push-ups in order to build up to the more difficult forms.

I think it would be better if you can keep up some kind of daily routine that involves some kind of push-up or push-up substitute, rather than giving up..

I understand that it can be very painful to do pushups, and it has continue to be painful for me too, even though I keep improving.. but even I am sometimes making some modifications in order to account for the level of my tiredness, soreness and/or if I believe that my pushups are interfering with my abilities to do other things in my daily routine... Overall we should be becoming more physically powerful through our doing these pushups (which should also help our power in other ways, too - whether physical or even our appetite or our psychological well-being), even if during some of the short-term periods, we might be experiencing some pains and inconveniences.

Yes, it seems difficult and very painful if we haven't done push ups for a long time. I found this thread and saw a variety of users taking part in this challenge,. I think this challenge is quite good because apart from being healthy for us, on the one hand, we also have a goal of $100k. Maybe someone who succeeds in doing push ups to reach $100k will certainly be a very meaningful pleasure for them. I probably won't be able to do as many push ups as you have done because I had an accident while I was working which caused a muscle fracture in my left hand and that really bothered me in all my work in the real world.

But we will try to do other routines that can make us healthy from psychology and will also support friends here for those who take part in this challenge.

Yesterday I hit my 3,000 since starting the challenge and I did it with sets of 33/33/34. I started today off with a set of 34 but have fallen behind due to some unforeseen plumbing emergency work which is now behind me. We’ll see if I’ll be able to keep this up or not, but so far so good. If so, I think two sets of 50 by the halving is a possibility. Who knows, maybe I’ll be able to get a single set in of 100 the day we hit $100K.

Stay with it!

I'm sure you will be the first to achieve it because the level of consistency you do increases your confidence in doing push ups every day.
