Good morning ☕️

Are you working up to 100 pushups per day? If so, awesome! 👏 it’s definitely achievable, and in a short time with a bit of discipline, and proper form, the number go up (NGU)!

Like #bitcoin, the number is not the most important thing. Your muscles adapt quickly when stressed, so it’s important to challenge them through variation so try different types of pushups.

Push ups are just one form of calisthenics that uses your body weight to target large muscle groups. Why limit yourself? You’ll achieve faster and better results if you take a whole body approach, and take nutrition seriously. Try:

- pushups

- pullups

- crunches

- squats

- lunges

While calisthenics are great for loosing weight and defining muscles, weight lifting is best for building muscle strength and size. Combine these techniques with gradual and modest changes to your nutrition to unlock your full potential!

Like #bitcoin, your overall health is just basic math. It requires efficient/consistent work and difficulty adjustments. Tick-tok, stack and HODL!

You are already motivated. What are your goals? Join #gainchain

Back in 2010, I remember I reached 100 pushups a day. It was rough, but I did it, thanks to the h every first app that I ever bought. It has a sets and rep tracker that slowly increased over time. 👀

My journey started with a mirror, and I use it everyday.

Ending weekly Ortho, Chiro, and PT soon.

Once rehab complete, I want to get into the best shape of my life and deep the benefits all summer long 🤙🏽

Great post, but disagree that calisthenics alone can't increase muscle strength and size

nobody 1y ago

It can certainly… at first but you will quickly plateau. Science.

Post a lazy girl routine. I did 15 pushups and died. Not everyone is in shape and some of us need to start mad slow.

Slow and steady is the only way! You are doing it right!

Like putting out the fats with enthusiasm. I would rather walk for miles on a straight line to increase the intensity of the workout, the sense of moving forward instead of standing still gives the feeling of achievement, sometimes I keep going because I have to and so the results get optimized or at least that’s what I’m hoping.

Optimizing endurance is great! You can push more forward by increasing incline rather than focusing on distance.

It’s more important to me to maintain a good posture than risking deformation further in life. I am lucky to have variable natural landscapes on my way and I like to obtain healthier results by making best use of them, so I start with jogging down the hill until I reach the sea as a good warmup then I walk on the sand letting the waves reach my feet to enhance the circulation, then I walk

on plain streets until reaching the train station where I take a little break before climbing up the hill and end my exercise by walking up stairs stretching every now and then a long the way or after getting back home. Sometimes I add weight by carrying a shopping bag. I find this less boring than going to the gym and multitasking.

How many sets to 100 (quality) for you?

nobody 1y ago

I can do 100 ‘classic’ reps in 1 set but I don’t.

Anything more than 30 pushups is a test of endurance more than anything else. Endurance is important if you need to work on that. For me I prioritize intensity. I’d rather spend valuable energy on challenging variations across multiple sets. I find 3 sets of 30 > 2 sets of 50 or 5 sets of 20.
