I am still focused on quantity over quality, and it remains my view that my quality is also improving with the mere fact that I am doing the pushups every day and 5 sets per day.
I am less sore, more push-ups per set, get through the push ups faster and with less pain, less rest time between sets and perhaps some other noticeable improvements. I am probably around 1 second per pushup, and there still might be some point that I am willing to slow down and reduce my quantity by 1/2 or 2/3 or even more, just to start to focus on something else, but right now I am still increasing my quantity per day.. and my last three sets were 50, 45, 50.. .. so that is more than I had been able to do in the past, and so I have two more sessions for today.. ..and so it could end up going higher than my so far 205 daily maximum... which I feel really go about that, since my first several days I could not even do 100 pushups without being very sore.. .. and yeah, today I am still planning on going for a walk so sometimes other exercises can affect subsequent push-up sets.. but I still have quite a few more hours left in the day.
Oh wow, 5 sets and you’ve been able to archive 205 for a day at some point, that’s a whole lot of push-ups and sets.
Basically, I reserve exercises for a morning and evening session when I can. I say when I can because, I skip days when I over sleep or just don’t feel like doing it for that day but, I still try though.
Meanwhile, I don’t know what 5 sets of push ups might be like. Like how do you split it within the day… it must come with ease but, you must have a lot of free time to session these exercises.
And yeah, 205 is possible with that much session, takes a great deal of discipline too as you have to remind yourself and push yourself to doing the task at hand, not to mention, the pains that would be on your shoulders. Surely you are building endurance as you’ve noted with the numbers your able to achieve which wasn’t the case before.
Even I with a history of push ups haven’t achieved 205 in any particular day. The most I have done and that was in the past was around 170 push ups. Now, I stick around 125 push ups and below. Haven’t really being pushing for more but, I guess the sessions helps and that comes at a great deal of discipline.
