I have a different routine now and working mostly on the lower body but great job to those who started early and followed through this challenge. They probably do 50 to 100 push ups in a row but it's just a mere warm up before lifting hehe. Can you confirm this JJG?
I have been doing some lunges, and I am thinking that the lunges might be good since they can be done anywhere, just like pushups.
Sometimes I use lunges exercise to end my push-up exercise in any of my session I usually start with the minimum of 3 set 10 reps in the first set, 12 reps in the second set and 15 reps in the third set, then when I want to increase my intensity I do a walking lunges exercise. This exercise has really helped me a lot combined with my push-up exercise.
Yeah, I might have to figure out a way to get more serious and regular about it, since I tend to do it somewhat infrequently, and it is kind of tiring to do them.
In recent times, I have been doing them as a walking lunge so that I continue to walk and my knee barely touches the ground with each step and I tend to keep my arms out for balancing, even though I know sometimes folks will add weights, like 10 pound or higher weight dumbells in each hand, but I find them hard enough to do with just body weight. so maybe I will do 10-20 lunge walking steps at a time, and maybe a few sets depending on how I feel, and probably if I was more consistent I could probably increase the number of steps.

I agree with you, JJG. Some of us cannot do up to 10 push-ups a day, but if this rule is implemented, they will do their best to improve their push-ups because they will want their names to be included in the table.
As long as a person isn't suffering from any health issue isn't not been able to do 10 push-up exaggerated. Do 2 in the morning
Another 3hours time before the day runs out 10 should be possible.
Using 2 is the minimiest I could go.
Okay 100K,Ambatman50,50,2024-04-10.
After hitting 50, I said let me rest before adding a 10 or 20.
Closing my eyes the next thing I heard was my alarm ringing for work
The good news is I'm sure I did it to my limit including doing abdominal crunches( can't neglect the abs)
And the bad news my muscles are rigid.
Did some stretches and push-up of 5(the mind was willing but the body wasn't) before heading to work.
Might not be able to do up-to the 50 today but let's see how competitive I can get.
In a week or two I'm sure I would be able to do 100+ per session
Was my normal routine before falling ill.
You are posting your format wrong Ambatman. The way you posted, it looks like you have 50 days and 50 pushups, which would be 1 pushup per day. I know tht you are trying to say that you did 50 pushups on 4/10/2024.. but for the purposes of the table, that is not how you report.
You need to put the total number of days that you have been doing your pushups after your user name, and then the total number of pushups that you have done at the time of your last posting of your update, which the date is meant to show the last posting (or the posting of the total number of days and the total of push ups up until that time).
So, I did my 200 already because it's going to be a busy ahead. I came here and saw tge leaderboard thing, and I love it!
I have my own source of motivation, but this, totally hits different!
I'm going to try to advance beyond my 200 mark in subsequent push ups. I'm thrilled, yes. This is something that should've been done before now, although it's still a blast.
I edited the list though

Instead of editing the table, all you need to do (to get your updated information into the table) is to put your updated information in the proper reporting format. Like this:
