I know I know before JJG comments  Tongue
Yes.  From my perspective, I am inferring that you  must not want to be included in the table.. That's your choice.
epiplaphobia?

That is a fairly reasonable point.**

- even though I had not even thought about the matter from that angle, and even though surely that point was contained within my framing of the matter.

**Note: I had to look up that word to make sure I did happen to have had properly understood the question.

I realized by myself how important physical fitness is for a person. I have realized since long time that my body weight is increasing day by day I was not so conscious about fitness. But due to my weight increasing day by day I felt restless and various problems were arising so I joined a gym near my house. I have been joining the gym for three months now and I never thought I could change my physical fitness so quickly. But all my food has to follow above the gym food list. But I now understand how important a person's physical fitness is, every person should look after their own physical fitness. Especially we should avoid taking any healthy food such as fast food, sweets, etc. All these foods add a lot of weight to our body. So we must change the food menu and focus on our physical fitness.
In as much as exercise is essential to the body food is also much essential to the body also, the body system really needs food expecially proteinous food because what we are doing here (exercise) is not an easy one so telling us to avoid talking healthy food is wrong.

There are essential proteins and there are essential fats. There is no such thing as essential carbohydrates...

I am not sure why you are talking about "especially proteins" when there are fats that are essential, too.

So many times people like to ignore fats and/or to downplay them or to even think of them as bad or second class citizens.. since many of us are brained-washed by mainstream framing of these matters.. and therefore we only emphasize proteins and end up giving improper emphasis to at least two out of the three macro nutrients.. too much emphasis to protein and too little emphasis to the importance of fats.

I having being doing push up without taking record for years now but cause of this thread I started keeping record from Last week Friday and below is my record though am yet to finish today's own.

I wish not to miss recording again.
Wow!!!

Starting out pretty BIG for a newbie.. and supposedly an "already in-shape pusher up."

Thanks boss. Just like i said earlier i use to do it before but wasn't taking record so it's like part of me i don't feel pains just that am always hungry whenever I am done with the push-up but those small sickness i use to experience before I don't feel or see them again that's one of the advantage.

Maybe you would like to share some of your pushup history, and how you got to be able to do 200 pushups per day on average, including how you are doing them currently in recent times as compared to how you had been doing them historically, and perhaps let us know more details in regards to how long you had been doing pushups in your routine and how you had been doing them in order to get up to a status of being able to do 200 pushups per day (on average).

Yeah quality food = costly

I think I starting working out again around Dec 2020.

But all light movement.

23 minutes on a stationary cycle  3 times a day after each meal. plus exercise bands while I cycled

Just attach to the cycle bars .

I had got down to 185 pounds and was on good shape. I then did the hernia operation and stopped exercising for a long time. I gained almost 30 pounds. 215 or so. I am back to 195 and getting in shape. The stair climbing and light cycle work is a bit better than the  just lite cycle work.

I really like that this thread came along. I took a long break for my next surgery and am now getting back to it.

I think that partly you are making the point in regards to what I had been trying to say earlier, in that there is some benefits to push beyond just cardio training (and even light exercise) and try to push some of your various exercises into resistance training rather than cardio.

One of the problems with overly emphasizing cardio is that if you do the cardio first, then you don't have any energy left to do the resistance training... so frequently it will be better to either start out with resistance training or to control the amount of cardio or warm up that you do prior to fitting in your resistance training so that you can make sure to get in resistance training on a fairly regular basis. .because even though the resistance training hurts, it is what you old foggies need (and yeah, I will include my self in your old-foggie group since I am not really that far behind you, you old fart).

Today was nice, since I am back caught up again in regards to my targeted average of pushups per day. .. so yeah, if any of us might miss some sets during a day or two or even longer, and the it can take a quite a bit of time and stress and focus to catch back up.. that is if it is even important to catchup.. and yeah the same question continues to linger about whether maybe having a lower average pushups per day target might be more healthy and sustainable.. .


I am using an Android phone and I don't know if all the features are showing here and again I am not too familiar with some features that means I can't be able to tabulate it but I would've love to. I started push-up when I was in secondary School then we usually do sports and some other activities and we use to call it press up back then in school, I use to do it at random then but I don't do less than 50 not at a time sha.

So, this time around I use to do 100 push-up in the morning before I take my shower and 100 push-up in the evening before I take shower. I usually draw something like a square and divide it into 5 parts so that when I go the first 20 push-up I tick the first box in that square just like that till i tick the 5 box then I am done for that morning and same in the evening, I use 20 so that I won't get tired quick.
