Got two nice sets of 50 in today. I’ve been focusing on trying to have perfect form and going nice and slow. I think at around 4-5 seconds per push-up you can really start to feel a burn and establish a good control of your form. It’s difficult for me to do more than 50 at a time like this, while I’m up to 70 if I try to get through them as fast as I can.
My top number of pushups in any set has been between 50 and 75, and the longest that I have taken to do any set of pushups is right around 70 or perhaps 80 seconds, so surely it becomes difficult to do pushups slow.. I wonder if I were to try to do 20 or 30 pushups as slow as 3-5 seconds per pushup if I would even be able to do 20-30 pushups under those kinds of conditions? Maybe I will try to do it? I am thinking that I may have done 30 pushups around 60 seconds previously and it about killed me, so maybe I will try to do the slow set just for shits and giggles..
I almost forgot about my promise to attempt "slow pushups," and so today, I had already done three sets for the day, and on my 4th set, I decided to try to do pushups 3 seconds or higher per pushup and to do as many pushups as I could do at that pace, and I was ONLY able to do 25 pushups in 75 seconds.. which of course is exactly 3 seconds per pushup which is likely my longest (so far) time doing pushups in one stretch and my longest amount of time per pushup (on average).
Maybe I will try again at some point? Surely, I did not like it, yet I am so much into a kind of routine of doing daily pushups that some experimentation is not likely to hurt too much.
If I think about what I might try out, perhaps one of my 5 sets per day could potentially be super slow, and I hope that I can at least do 20 pushups per set, even if they are getting close to 4 seconds, if such a thing might be possible for me. I might have to work towards seeing how many 4-5 second pushups I am able to do.. Again.. I don't like it.
On my other 4 pushup sets each day, I am just going to continue at my regular pace which recently has been tending to be right around 50-60 pushups per set and perhaps right around 45 to 55 seconds for the whole set.. so just about. One second per pushup or slightly less than 1 second per pushup.
I don't like the slow - quality over quality kinds of pushups, yet I suppose if ONLY one out of my 5 daily pushup sets will be purposefully slow, then maybe I can keep trying and see if it gives me any kind of feeling of value or purpose or improvement or anything like that, from such. Maybe an overall sense of psychological well being?

That sounds likely are making decently good progress in ramping up your number of sets and your number of pushups per set. Just don't over do it, and surely your decision to give yourself another 10 days before you bump up your number of sets a wee bit moar (which will increase your total pushups per day) should be plenty of time to make sure that you are ready for that next level.
So as planned, my trainer suggested me to take it real slow. I was giving a try and only four halfish push up was hard enough for me that I could not go for another one LOL. I will count it 4.
I started officially.

For the record; No, this push up was not intent to push the price of BTC but to celebrate the waiting time. I will continue it until we have the biggest day.
I personally have previously recommended that pushups of less than 10 per day should not go in the pushup table... yet I am pretty sure DirtyKeyboard's script has not been programed in that direction.
Hopefully in the future you can get your pushups up to at least 10 per day? such as 3-4 sets of 3-4 pushups per set. .. otherwise it might not be easy to take you seriously... at least from my perspective.. I might start to refer to you as vapourware... hahahahaha. .in order to attempt to shame you into doing more pushups.. and also including that you are surely able to do modified pushups in order to increase your pushup quantity, which I think should be between 8-12 pushups per set in order to help you in the quantity section.. instead of considering yourself as a power lifter.. which seems problematic.. and not quite even the idea of pushups.. the spirit of pushups even though at least if you have the spirit of bitcoin and you are not trying to shitcoin us, then that would be the other angle that we might want to consider.
And, after I criticized.. I will still say welcome to participation in this pushups for $100k bitcoin phenomena that is not ONLY happening in this thread or this forum but in other parts of bitcoinlandia, too. In its own way, it is almost like the icebucket challenge.
By the way that you mentioned that you will continue until the BIGGEST day? ARE you referring to $100k? or perhaps beyond $100k or some other number? One thing is suggesting some kind of a non-specified price, but then the other thing is the time that it could take to get there. so there might need to be restrictions one way or another, and it seems that some earlier participants in this thread might have petered out somewhat since they might have been tentatively thinking that BTC prices ONLY go up, which is a pretty lame presumption, even though a lot of people get into bitcoin (and even into shitcoins) with those kinds of built in presumptions. So committing to do pushups and even committing to do pushups within a certain time frame or until a certain price might be something that is more in your control as compared with really figuring out either BTC price direction or even how long it might take to get there.. in this case $100k and above.
