When I started this challenge, I was planning to do 100 push-ups every day. I set out and decided that I couldn't do it, so I do it on days that are spaced out to at least provide continuity.
With my work and other workouts, doing push-ups every day would be very tiring. So sometimes I squeeze them in at the end of my workouts or do 100 push-ups on my off days.
I did 100 push-ups today too

Surely there is no need to kick yourself or even to put undue pressure on yourself to do something like 100 pushups per day, especially if you may well have either a lot of other physical activities (including exercises that you do) and/or if you might have a schedule/routine that is not very conducive to fitting in 100 pushups per day (& every day).

Frequently, my five sets per day feels really grueling, even though I am able to fit such a thing into my schedule, and I am allowing myself (or authorizing myself) to create such a priority to do that many pushup sets per day. So out of my 253 days of doing pushups, I have right around 70% of the days that I had done 5 or more pushup sets for those days.

I am tentatively thinking that once we go over $100k. . if we go over $100k, then maybe at that point, I will cut back on the number of pushup sets per day, even though there seems to be a certain value in doing pushup sets in order to be able to continue to be able to do them, so there is a risk for any of us that our abilities to do pushups is likely going to go down once we stop or slow down doing pushups, so we would have to build back up to being able to do them in the event that we cut back in the quantity of pushups that we do per day.

Losing endurance becomes more likely to happen the older that we get, so sometimes if we might be an older person, it might take us longer to build up to a certain high level of endurance as compared to a younger person, and it also might take us a bit longer to build up our recovery times, so that we are not as sore between our exercise sessions, whether referring to pushups or other kind of regular exercise that we might end up doing.

Here we go again, new week new pushups

.
From my last week pushup I think the skipped PUs have been completed, that left me with just 90Pus/day and currently I'm having 5 days of Pus to drop with 90Pus/day +bi added extra 30 Pus today to complet an accurate number I.e
(90 x 5) + 30 => 480 ( just as previous sets, 3 set's for each day )though today set was 40 each
My Previous total Pus was 11720 + 480 --Total New Pus =12,200

... I guess the 30 should be clear now

Your report is wrong promise444c5. Don't you have a total of 12,200 pushups in 61 days? or is it something else? Why are you showing 3090 pushups in 61 days. I can't quite figure out the puzzle, but it seems wrong especially because the last result within the table you had 11,720 in 155 days... so it seems that you are adding 480 onto that in 5 days.. which seems that it would end up being 12,200 in 60 days.. but hey I am not exactly sure about your puzzle except to see that for sure the 3,090 seems to be incorrect.

Hey Philip I guess your quote needs your attention

I liked the way it looks but technically it is not correct.

I may leave it or may correct it.

not sure . If it fucks the script up I will alter it.

when I do tomorrow I won’t quote and do it differently.

so 30+30+40

will likely stay at 40 a day for now.

As I edit quoted your pushup report below, it seems to be correct.. .. The most relevant is the part is that you are proclaiming that as of today, you have done 100 pushups in 3 days... that seems to match up with your description of what you said that you were wanting to report.

By the way, there probably would not be any need to either submit full reports for each day, or even to continue to report prior days as full reports since you might end up inadvertently confusing DirtyKeyboard's script into choosing the wrong report, which is also a danger when any of us might quote the full reports of others. I mostly edit out the "100k" portion, since I don't want to trigger DirtyKeyboard's script when i am quoting the substantive portions of another member's report.. whether there seem to be mistakes in the report or not.

Whether you or anyone else, it is probably best if any of us participating in this to be also keeping track of our own totals whether on a notebook or electronically, so that we might not feel any need to report every day in our posts and to just post an updated report from time to time, whether we choose to submit such reports every day or if we might ONLY submit them periodically, such as every few days, once every week or two or perhaps some even more spread out period, except that the newest rule is that if we do not submit a report at least within the previous 30 days, then our results will be published in the bench section of the tables rather than on the floor section of the tables.. .

and surely we might prefer to keep an active status in regards to which pushup table our username appears, but just like doing the pushups and submitting our pushup reports, it is up to each of us whether and/or the extent that we want to participate.

By the way, for me, I have done 3 pushup sets so far today, and I will probably wait to submit my pushup report tomorrow or whatever other day that I am able to finish most if not all of my pushups for the day (prior to midnight UTC)... If I finish my pushup sets after midnight UTC, then I usually just wait until some subsequent day to submit my updated pushup report.

Another by the way, in the last few months, I have tended towards scheduling my pushup sets, so that perhaps within an hour of getting up, I will do my first pushup set, and then after each pushup set, I will set an alarm timer on my phone for when I will want to do my next pushup set, so if I am either trying to do a lot of sets i a day to test myself or otherwise to try to get my pushup sets out of the way quickly, I might set my timer to do my next set within 30-60 minutes from previous set. On the other hand, if I am either feeling really sore or otherwise have some scheduling issues, I would set my alarm to do the next set anywhere between 1 hour and 3 hours after the previous set.. Of course, if I have more than 3 hours between sets then I might have difficulties fitting all pushup sets within my waking time, so usually I try to not wait 3 or more hours between sets, absent some kind of a scheduling conflict that interferes with my ability to do pushups.

A final by the way for this post, I tend to have to write down my pushups right away after I do them on my phone, and then I will put that information into a spreadsheet at my convenience, so since I time my pushups, my format contains the time of the pushup set, the number of pushups in that set and how many seconds it took for me to do those pushups in that pushup set.

I did
3 sets of 10 day 1
3 sets of 10 day 2
4 sets of 10 day 3

Not going to push hard as my toe is finally getting close healed.

Modded with stairs angle helps both the toe and the hernia.

Hoping to keep on these for quite a while.
