100 push ups a day


Shankster

Recommended Posts

Started yesterday.

 

Goal is at least 100 push ups a day for the entire year. Split up in sets of 10 or 25.

 

I may add 10-20 or more per day each month.

 

Also might add 100 sit ups a day, and probably pull ups starting with 10 a day.

 

Anyone care to join me?

 

I’ll be posting updates in here if there’s any interest.

 

20 more push ups to go for today.

I started to do this last year and got out of the groove and ended up quitting. I’m glad you posted this because I’m going to start again!

... Well Shank, you are twice the man I am!  💪  I do 2 sets of 25 push ups every other day. At 65 it keeps my muscle tone and strength at a good compromise of strength and flexibility. Good luck in your new program.

Yeah, I need to do this.  I've got to get my core stronger, which is the main cause of my back problems.  I started yesterday, and I've got to do this in baby steps.  Man, I remember in my Marine Corps days when push ups, sit ups and pull ups were like drinking water.  Now, I feel like I'm 80 and can barely muster a few of either.

I’ve had to take it easy with my shoulder. It has really been bugging me a lot. So my workouts besides running all but stopped, and even then it was painful sometimes to run.

Yesterday I got so PO’d that I said enough is enough and cranked out 100. My shoulder feels like a million bucks now. Or at least 900,000. Much better anyways.

Can’t do that buddy but will root you on.

When I started my fitness program in February I had trouble with 5. I’m up to 50 three times a week. I bummed that Barbajo saw my fully vested. It’s tough to see how much weight I’ve lost under a chasuble.

... Ain't life a ton of fun? After my intestinal infection almost 2 years ago when I lost almost 30lbs I have struggled to gain it back. I have regained 20lbs but those last 10 are proving very difficult because I eat healthy. Lots of grass fed, free range meats and organic vegetables, but very little carbs and no sugar. So I would gladly take 10lbs off your hands if you can spare them.

You will quickly move away from 100. Recommend 200/day working up to 4 sets of 50, with a pull-up pyramid. Great for core strength, flexibility, and will definitely help those large group “golfing “ muscles

Thanks. I’m already at 130 for today. Pushups have always been my nemesis. Long arms, long travel, low reps.

I’m a twig, trying to add a little (very little) bulk, but keep under the 175 Mark.

I recommend baby steps and also listen to your body. Muscle soreness is a cost of doing business but there is a difference between soreness and pain. If you’ve not exercised these muscles in awhile the increased load is going to put a good amount of stress on your joints. Your muscles support your joints. As they become more able to absorb the increased load the more your joints will be able to tolerate the increased activity. Most injuries occur in the first couple weeks of a new training routine.

After spending 31 years in the Army I have certainly done my fair share of push ups, sit ups and pull ups. The best way to achieve positive growth while preventing injury is to complete the exercise correctly and increase load gradually. Every muscle movement has three phases; the concentric phase, eccentric phase and the isometric phase. Your goal should be a smooth controlled movement through these three phases.

Set realistic and achievable goals, be patient with your progress and expect to slide back from time to time, and good luck.

I’m all in!

I'll jump in on this as well. I'm just going to do the pushes though. I've done something similar before and time can get away from me. 100 is good. Last time I did this I'd break out 10 at a time whenever I think about it and keep a tally on my phone.

I have one of those fancy peloton bikes for cardio / core / flexibility but I don't do much upper body. This'll be good.

I saw a video of this on YouTube and the body transformation of one of the participants was pretty impressive. IDK if I can stay motivated to do this on top of superspeed, but good luck to everyone else

I'll join you! I'm not sure I can do 100 a day at first but I know I can get there! I had my second back surgery 3 years ago (a microdiscectomy followed by a fusion) and I'm just now starting to get my life back to normal but I'm excited to get my core strength up specifically, as well as, muscle tone in general.

I'll join in the fun on one condition...no shirtless progress updates from anyone.  That happens I'll give it a shot but will have to work my way up to 100 a day.  I suffer from long arms as well Shankster, mine happen to be skinny too!

For me to get to 100 a day anytime soon I'd need to quit my job.  Goal will be 50 a day to start then build from there.

Is it a time thing? or an endurance thing? 

I mentioned this earlier but I usually break it into 10's or 20's. I was hardcore about this early last year as well and then fell off when I switched jobs. 

Roughly I do 10 before I hop in the shower, 10 when I hop out, 10 before I leave for work. Then when I get home I do 10 and change clothes, Do my actual workout, then 10 after, rinse off the sweat, 10 again, 40 left and its not even dinnertime, After that I just do 10 every time I come out of the bathroom and I usually have 10 or 20 left before bed which I just knockout. 

Not everyone has the same schedule of course, but the principle applies that just chipping away is much much easier in terms of time and fitness needed to achieve them. Just some thoughts on this, not just for you but for others as well who may be struggling to find the time. 

FWIW At my old job we had individual bathrooms, every time I went, I'd just drop and do 10, wash hands, proceed with life...Gross, yeah for sure, but it got the job done. 🙂

It’s a little of both I think. I’m going to start in the morning by doing as many as I can before and after a shower. At work isn’t an option but if I go home for lunch I’ll bang a few more out.

The bathroom isn’t an option at work because I’d be like a dog drinking from a bowl the way the crapper is set up. Finding time to do 1 set of 4 then 33 sets of 3 each day is a whole other issue.

But I’m going to give it a shot.

Been doing this for a year now. 130 today , and last set of 20 I hold chest to ground and count 1-2-3. Than up and do another rep.Some noticed huge changes, not much for me. Now if you can do 100 pull ups a day you will notice something amazing 

or do a set of Himylaian runners between each set. Or set of box squats. I can do this at work in the hallway with work uniform on

Did my first plank last night, held it for between 30 and 60 seconds before the shakes got me.
