I got two sets of fifty in today for the first time. It felt pretty good. I feel like there’s hope that I could get to 100 straight by the time we hit $100K if I can manage to keep it up. This challenge has been going on long enough now to where I’m proud to see people sticking with it. I know I would have missed a day by now if I didn’t have this thread going so thanks to all the participants.
If you continue hitting the 100 push-ups in two sets for some weeks, it will get used to your body, and you will not want to do any push-ups that are below fifth because you will not want to reduce your morale of hitting 100 push-ups one day in a set. After you have done the fifty push-ups for some weeks and gained some strength, you can increase it to 70 push-ups in a set to see if you can handle it. If you successfully handled the 70 push-ups without too much struggle, then you can now do the 100 push-ups in a set because you have prepared your body for it. have prepared your body for it.
I’m actually surprised at how good it feels. Doing only 2 sets lets me get my 100 push-ups in before noon. That gives my body twice as much time to recover as when I was doing 25 right before bed and then 25 more when I wake up. I’m barely getting through 50 at a time so 100 is still a long ways off, but I’m hoping to continue seeing improvement.
