I hate to break the bad news to you, but if you suddenly increase your pushups all at once.. like doubling them, then you might start to get really sore, so you may or may not be able to continue to increase, or if you do too many sets in a row, you might get more sore from that, so even though you might improve your pushups, you also might have some days that you are even more sore than you had been on previous days.

Maybe this will all work out for you, but sometimes there can be advantages in spreading out your pushups throughout the whole day, especially if you are going to continue to want to do several sets in each day and try to continue to do them every single day (even if some days might be higher numbers of pushups and other days might be lower number of pushups, but as you build, you still should be able to continue to increase your overall quantity of pushups, as long as you do not end up injuring yourself or otherwise overdoing it). It is like investing into bitcoin. You want to be aggressive, but not to overdo it otherwise you might end up injuring yourself

You're right after hitting those numbers of pushups all at once, I began to feel some sore in my shoulders which endup slowing down my 24-04-15 pushups, I endup hitting 50 pushups only , I will tried pushing further but I couldn't due to the disturbance of the sore In my shoulders. So I've decided to keep to your advice in spreading out my pushups. Because Doing so will be able to hit some nice numbers of pushups (due to fact that I've gotten some nice stamina in my pushups lately ) without over doing it or over pushing my self. Like I've already hit 20 pushups in my first set of today and later in the day I'm going hit another. Let's me use this medium to drop my re

The body is a system that shows signs when it goes through stress and change. Even when you feel sores on different parts of your body( not the normal stretches you feel as a result of work out ) and you decide to take a step back, you should also try not to be comfortable at that spot, because sometimes when we experience pain, it's a phase, and thereafter, the muscles get stronger. That's one side to it.
Spreading out your push ups should be modified to how much your body can take, and not necessarily that they must be split evenly.
Some days you really do need those step backs, as overdoing your body could lead to injuries.

You are right mate when the muscles are very weak one really needs to reduce the numbers of push-up to avoid muscles injuries, in as much as it is also important to increase the numbers of push-up in other to build up some sufficient stamina and strength in the muscles, it is also important to know that when the weak muscles are overloaded with plenty of push-up it can also result to muscles injuries.
