I am a very young member among you. I cannot do very many push-ups. But from today onwards I will do 20 push-ups every day and will try to reach 100 by doing it consistently. Everyone please pray for me so that I can do 100 push-ups every day like you.
Some people that are doing 100 push-ups in this push-up thread couldn't even do up to 30 push-ups a day when they joined this push-up challenge, but their consistency and dedication towards this push-up challenge paved the way for them, and they were able to do 100 push-ups in this push-up challenge. Our prayers won't help you do 100 push-ups a day if you don't have the strength to achieve it. If you can't do 100 push-ups a day, you have to do the little one you can be able to do, but if you are consistent in doing push-ups, there's a big chance you will achieve 100 push-ups.
It's funny how we pray for every single thing, even what simple practice can help you achieve. Everyone has a first date and I still know vividly that greater percentage of the people here all started off their pushups exercise with less figures believing to improve later. I have checked through this thread from my early days here and I discovered that almost everyone started far below 100 pushups except people like @JJG who even started his pushups a day before the creation of this thread with a whooping sum of 170 pushups in about 3 sets .

So you have to start and try to be consistent. One day you would be surprised on the number of pushups you can achieve in a day. What you need to improve your pushups is Strength that comes with consistency, not prayers.
It's a process. You start with a small number of push-ups and increase it over time. No one suddenly starts doing 100 push-ups. For all the new people here, don't be too impatient. Take your time, do it slowly and do it right. Don't sacrifice your form just to do more reps. Do as many as you can with proper form.
Added another 200 in the first day of August.

You're right sir, Everything starts with a single pushed. It is a gradual process and I having been taken my time to build up my Arm strength. When I first started this challenge ,I was doing below 30 pushups a day and as time goes on I am now doing up to 50 pushes a day. I tried doing more than that but I couldn't so I decided not rush it , to maintain my current 50 pushups for a day until I am strong enough to pass that number.
Today was a beautiful sunny day in my area where I was able to complete a very nice push up. Today I completed a total of 100 push ups in 5 sets.

I believe it's almost whole right here. Push-up is not something you rush, you start somewhere. The major problem with pushups is breaking through the pain that comes in the first 3 weeks. So if anyone is able to go beyond that first 2 to 3 weeks, then he can achieve any level of pushups with time.
As it's the second day of the month, the fitness to go through the month is what we all need.
