40 days in the books for me since starting this challenge. That’s 4,000 push-ups! I’m glad to see Bitcoin rallying so hard with the hope that we will soon be able to declare victory over this challenge. With a little luck we’ll get there before the halving so we can all get some much needed rest for our muscles.
Just 10 days for me.. In a very short time I have tried to make some variation in my quality of life, although I have increased my push-ups but only slightly.I'm a bit fat so it's hard for me..actually I'm doing 6 push-ups, 2 times a day, afternoon and night. Just I going to walk in the morning. I'm feeling nice participating with you, I haven't lost weight yet but I hope it will if I do regular push-ups.
You started this thread with a push-up of $100k of bitcoins with a good will and I think your aim was initially successful. Now bitcoin price is going up and down from $70k to $72k...maybe it will take some time to reach $100k...I think if the price doesn't reach $100 a in this session then you can open 2nd session again or next 3rd session..Just like we can't do 100 push-ups at once, splitting the session. You can split the session too.
I just shared my idea.
It is good that you are doing something rather than nothing, but it seems that you need a certain number of reps for each of your sets and then maybe even adding more sets per day, and I am not sure how you get that, because 2 sets of 6 pushups in a day do not seem like very many.. .. and maybe there could be ways to do modified pushups in order to get more reps.. if you are not already doing modified pushups in order to increase your reps.. and maybe work up to 3 to 5 sets per day or something like that.. and maybe add 1 more push up to your sets every few days.... If you are doing full body pushups and ONLY getting 6 pushups, then that might be too much strain on you body, and so it would be good to work up to a set of 10, even if they are modified... 3 to 5 sets of 6-12 pushups per day might be really making progress... and so that would be 30 to 60 push-ups.
In contemplation of your goals and maybe how much weight you are pushing,
this article has some suggestions regarding number of repetitions and sets.
Yes... you are right, it would be great if the set can be increased little by little every day. In this case, the level of effort will increase and time will be spent. It can definitely help me lose weight. There is another problem... if you work hard, the food level increases... so how to lose weight? We have to live with many problems. The body needs protein for energy, eating it again increases weight... In this case, the level of meat can be increased. However, it is important to keep checks and balances on push-ups and meals. Only then fat people like me can lose fat, but it is not an easy task.
