JJG I am taking it slow so that I do not injure myself and also do not loss motivation quickly. I have had an 11 today. 4-4-3. I was determined to go for this additional one so that I can make it 60 instead of 59 that was expected.

I don't necessarily want to repeat myself, and surely I have no problem with you working your way up, yet I already explained why I consider it to be better to do more repetitions per set (such as up to

(even if you have to modify them) since you might risk injury by doing too few reps per set. Of course, you are free to do what you like, even if it is not advisable, and I also would be concerned to post on a general level rather than just being posted for you.. so in that sense, I think guys should be shooting to do at least 8 pushups per set... and 3 sets per day, even if they might have to do modified pushups in order to achieve that many repetitions... .. yet of course, guys can do whatever they like.

The first rep in push-ups is always easy, and you can do plenty of push-ups, but as you continue to do more reps, you will see yourself struggling to maintain the same number of push-ups you did in your first rep, and you will want to quit because you are getting exhausted, but believe me, the last rep in push-ups usually adds great gain to our body. As far as doing push-ups is concerned, one push-up is a number. I will never laugh at you for doing 10 push-ups a day because you are better than those who are not doing push-up or exercising their bodies, but I want to let you know if you are consistent in doing 10 push-ups a day for 1-2 weeks, you will see yourself increasing the number of your push-ups, and you will not feel so much pain when you are doing push-ups.
For sure some applause has to come for guys who are putting in effort to do pushups every day, even if small numbers.
I think that I like the idea of a kind of normal looking guy who might little by little become more muscular with the passage of time and the ongoing doing of pushups, and sure some of us might become more muscular with this passage of time than others, yet we still might not look much different than the average Joe, except maybe in terms of measuring our current selves against our prior selves we might become more in shape with the passage of time... or maybe it is just a psychological thing, and we gain confidence, even though we really do not look very much different from when we started?
