Today marks 6,400 push-ups for me. I'm glad I pushed through the pain as I'm feeling much better these days. I've even had to add in more workout routines as only doing 100 push-ups per day has gotten too easy. Now to see if I can replicate the same type of success with the rest of my body. I still haven't done more than 50 in a single set yet, but I probably could if I wanted to. I'm switching up my reps every day. Usually it's something like 25/25/25/25 or 40/30/20/10 but I've found when I was doing the same thing every day it got more difficult to remember, so I try to keep things unique daily. I still like the idea of doing 100 push-ups in a single set when BTC hits $100,000 and will make a solid effort get there.
I have only been able to 55 pushups 4 or 5 times and 54 pushups once. Frequently I try to push to do as many as I can, and I tend to end up in the 40-45 range, so every once in a while I can do more than that.. .pretty rare as you see.. there may have been a few times that I still have gas in the tank, but I don't necessarily want to push it.. or there might be other times that I cannot even do 40 pushups.. but that is also starting to be pretty rare too..
As far as remembering, I just write it down right away.. so that I don't forget.
I haven't tried to go beyond 50 at a time yet and it's been a week or two probably since I went to 50. 40 has gotten pretty normal and 20 feels like nothing now. I should probably try pushing myself to see how many I can do just to get a feel for how far away I am from 100 at once, but I'll wait until after the halving for that.
I should probably write my push-ups down too. This has become just as much an exercise of my memory recall as it has been my chest muscles.
I will say that I'm a bit surprised at the visual effect this has had on my core. I didn't expect to build *** gutters from this challenge.
