welcome to the club 
2x25 is actually pretty good for the start. were you doing push-ups before starting this?
Until a while ago (a few months, or now more like 1-1.5 years) I used to go to the gym regularly. Due to various reasons, this became less frequent.2x25 is actually pretty good for the start. were you doing push-ups before starting this?
But I thought this was a great idea and did the 2x25 straight away.
Even though I have to admit that it used to be easier and wasn't as easy as I thought it would be
I am pretty sure that when I started, I had way more fear of pushups than they ended up being.
yes it is hard to do pushups, and yes they continue to hurt.
But I recall so many years (more than 10 years - probably more than 15 years, even though I remember the purposeful aspect of avoiding pushups coming from about mid- 2011) of purposefully not doing pushups because I had remembered how much they hurt.. and I just did not want to get into such a hurting habit.
Now 516 days later.. I am still doing pushups on a daily basis.
My first day was three sets of 20 or less,
second day was 3 sets of 25 or less,
third day is a bit ambiguous.. so I don't really want to say, even though it is in my historical charts
My 4th day was 3 sets of less than 35 per set
My 5th through 20th days (except one of three sets) were all four sets and gravitating upwardly for daily totals tending to between 100 and 135 pushups for the day.
Starting on day 21 I was doing 5 sets per day that lasted until about day 121.. and by day 121 I had completed just over 24k pushups for the whole challenge, so I was averaging 200 pushups per day by day 121.
If you let it, the whole daily pushups process can build upon itself... a bit like a snowball rolling down a hill, but also to keep the daily pushup's process going, including quite a bit of ongoing and perhaps priority-based personal efforts too... and various body part pains along the way.

Wow! That is great big man, from your lines of the beginning from this wonderful push-ups thread exercise i must congratulate you if any can't because you started very well compared to that only did 30 in 3 sets .
I know that being consistent with your daily push-ups it is not that very easy and more of when you are coming to an age that you can't consistently do push-ups exercise that easily,so since is what can benefit every individual that embark on push-ups exercise we should always afford to do the one out can accept and can carry too, it is a great achievement that the all members of this wonderful thread have gotten so far of 1,000,657 totally push-ups exercise today, I know that we are going to push consistently to stay above 1,000,657 more kudos to all of us .
