For those who are having difficulty maintaining a certain number of push-ups in each set, such as doing 15 push-ups each in 5 sets, when you are doing your push-up, do not be in a rush to complete your push-up. Always take a minimum of 20 minutes to rest before you can start another set so that you will have enough strength to do the same number of push-ups you did in your first set.

I think 20mins is too much to take a rest, when you feel that tiredness while doing the push up and you don't stop that's when you get the effects more, and 30 seconds is enough for a rest. Whenever you rest for long like up to 20mins like you said, it might discourage you from continuing the task for the day, for me I do 100 every morning with some other fitness exercises, 30secs rest and I go again, like 2 to 3 times repeating same process even at night and whenever you do your exercise take a lot of water, it helps.

This challenge made some people do push-ups for the first time in their lives. If they adopt this 30-second rest before they start another set, they may want to quit this challenge because they will not have enough strength to even do up to five push-ups in the second set. If I adopt this strategy, I will not maintain my 50 push-ups in a set because my body will not get enough rest that will allow me to endure pain and still push until I reach 50 push-ups in my second set. Taking enough rest when working out is important for our bodies.

I agree with you but you must know that it all depends on the individual and if you're use to it you won't feel like having that 20mins rest, you'll continue going on with the push up and it will be more fun, just like a child eating chocolate, you won't want like to stop but continue doing it because your body has adapted to it. Well, I'd say you should continue with whatever strategy that suit you, let's hope the upcoming days will be on the positive side with Bitcoin price going higher and also giving us that motivation to continue the challenge.

I know what you are talking about because I used this type of strategy when I did a chest workout with my friend, and I must say it requires a lot of strength to keep up with it. Since we are not in competition here, we need a strategy that will allow us to have enough rest. We can even take some days off from this challenge just to get enough rest if our bodies are stressed out so much.

I quite agree with you on giving it a break but what's in you is in you and nothing can take it away from you. Doing this push up with friends is even more fun because at some point if you're the type that hardly exercise the body you use your friends as motivation to keep up and you find out that you're doing better than when you're doing it alone even if is not a competition but you take it as a challenge. Resting the body is good to avoid falling ill (to some), it ones happened to me but ever since it got used to me I don't feel that stress when doing it.

How frequent one keeps engaging in this push up exercises, the body gets to adjust and increases the number significantly, aswell in terms of stamina for other activities. Back then, I would hardly do even as little as 10 pulls ups on a hanged iron bar but now I can confidently exceed that number. I love the way our body is programed, we quickly get adaptive to things we find difficult, once we keep it consistent it's much easier even strong enough to go through the pains at the very beginning.
