my challenge to you:

do 100 squats a day without even posting about it.

The whole 100 push-ups a day thing feels a little misguided to me. ESPECIALLY if it’s the only resistance exercise you are doing.

Esthetically, we value pecs, but think about how often you use the push-up motion in your day-to-day life.

Maybe pushing open a door …. and push-ups….

Moreover, too much pushing and not enough pulling over time can lead to posture and shoulder mobility problems.

Compared to something like a squat, which, when done correctly, uses multiple muscle groups evenly and it strengthens muscles that you will use every day for the rest of your life.

Sitting/standing, walking/running/jumping, going up/down stairs, getting in and out of bed, getting in your car, etc.

It also activates ATP more which helps overall with healing from any injury.

100 squats, a day will improve your life now and make you live longer.

100 push-ups is a social media meme.

this is a great video on the basics of squatting.

Pushups, if done properly, build core strength too and the kind of people who do those challenges would benefit from that.

Buy yeah, squats are good too.

Personally I like Burpees. Bit of everything.🤼😈
