I could not imagine, completing today push up, due to stress of work today , to complete it is what I must do, so I was able to complete it by three sets of push up , it was really stressful it was like someone who fought the lion.

100 to start would be tough on most and also press ups are harder for some then others. I used to do 200 years ago but I considered that alot and I didnt start off with that much. Anyone skinny has an advantage on this one as you literally have to lift less weight then anyone heavier build. There is also the consideration women are possibly at a disadvantage also but some equivalence could be put into the idea.
Mostly because Im too lazy but also I've done this much before so I dont feel too guilty but I will say 100k pricing could take years to occur. You are going to end up looking like Arnold perhaps so its a win/win perhaps but I dont presume 100k this year or even the next so this is maybe 700 days commitment, I will have to wuss out on this one sorry. Sure I think 100k does happen, timing is the maybe imo.

Ok. You lured me into a response. I think that $100k this year is more than 50% likely - which makes it bettable... I don't feel really strongly about this, and it is quite amazing to even consider 50/50 odds with such a high number...makes me feel kind of like someone who is overly optimistic, to be suggesting that some kind of an asset has greater than 50% odds to go up right around 2.25x of our current price $44,550 in the next 10.75 months....

So if $100k does not happen this year, then the odds of it happening by 2025 must be a little bit higher than 50%.. so maybe will have to say 55% or more.. surely bettable

At some point I am going to have to work out my odds for this cycle (like I did in my previous post on the topic).... .

Regarding pushups, I started on February 5th..

and so daily I did pushups: 1) 50 2) 70 and 3) 50 so far = total = 170

I am going to keep my discipline more loose, even though I was able to do more push ups from the start than I thought that I was going to be able to do at the start - but I am experiencing some soreness in my chest.. .. so for some of us there can be some value in pacing these kinds of matters.. to attempt to push ourselves, but without over doing it..

and yeah, nothing wrong with modified push-ups, even though I am going to try to continue to do regular pushups unless I hit some kind of a barrier in this process, and I am not even against the idea that maybe even various other exercises could be decent substitutes for someone who might be adding some kind of an exercise to their schedule rather than doing something that they already do.. and even the person who does a certain number of stairs, might still want to push for some push ups too.. based on stairs being cardio and push ups being resistance training.. yet if you had not really been exercising, it might be better to start with lighter kinds of activities and work your way up and even stairs might seem like resistance training in the beginning of getting used to it.. and also based on trying to stay in the spirit of the idea (not that push ups are exactly a fair standard for some folks.. including the girl disadvantage that was mentioned) - absent some kind of physical limitation..

And, @phil I cannot cannot completely let you off of the hook in regards to the planking thingie-ma-jiggie, because I am not against it.. I looked it up and it is a core strength building exercise, but I think that maybe there could be some pushups thrown into the mix, too.. especially if you are already ready, willing and able to plank for 100 seconds per day... your starting point is not whimpy at all... #justsaying... but your assertion that "can't do push-ups because too elderly" just does not seem to pass a logics test.

I am thinking "dear elderly person" (more elderly than me) that maybe some modified pushups to start, such as 5 or 10 modified pushups for each planking session, and I am not really sure if 100 seconds of planking is very comparable to 100 pushups.. and I would not dispute planking for 100 seconds may well be more difficult than 20 or 30 modified pushups... but if you are able to carry out 100 seconds of planking right now, then I would suggest and cajole that maybe there might be some attempts for uie-pooie to increase your number of seconds (is this coming off as abuse to the elderly?) or to add in some pushups (or modified pushups) into the mix as you build up your strength? and then maybe you might be able to make it to 92 as you had been suggesting in an earlier post of yours..

Come on old foggie.. ..

yet I don't want you to injure yourself, even though I cannot let you off so easily, either.. hahahahaha

That was what happened to me yesterday at the football field. Actually I came a little bit late my suspension or my plead is for me to push up to 10 push up before I will go into the field to play the football,But they never knew I do it everyday so I was able to give them 40 push up that was where he believed me.
