I don't really know if I'm the only one who's seeing this on Bitcoin price that's heading down where we don't want it to be or is it just trying to show those who never saw it getting past $67-69k? Huh...? I hope it gets back up again, or is it that some of us are not getting the job done like completing the push-up to 100? Or are some of us stopping at 60 that's why we have it at $68k now🤔🤔? Who's monitoring this push-up? We need to get it back up to $70k+ ones more.
I believe some of us are having this disappointing look on our faces after seeing the market price losing it's force of get to $100k, it must surely turn around anytime soon to a much higher price, ones it gets to $70k the journey to $100k continues.
Disappointed? If you've been here on this market for too long then you would be seeing these drops to be an opportunity. Im rather be happy than on being sad with these drops.  Cheesy You can load up your bag even more.
As for push-ups then if you are really that getting in line on the current price then if you have been able to reach out that 70+ in a day and having that drops then the next ones would be easy. Right?
Dont stress up yourself on having those monitoring because it would really be just that enough for you to have such monitor on your push ups.

Drops like this are nothing. Market cant really just have that one movement or simply going up like forever. There's always a correction for course.
The good thing about this kind of initiative on trying to get in line on having those pushups as it moves up is that you dont only make yourself that making money but also making your body healthy too.

There is no need to be worried about the little dump in the bitcoin price. There will always be a pullback in the bitcoin price because of the volatility of bitcoin. If I'm you, I will use this opportunity to accumulate more bitcoin in my portfolio before it sets another all-time high within this month or next month.

You are actually right on this bro,  I think he should be more concerned about accumulating more and more Bitcoin than it current price, because I believe that Bitcoin is no where near the value it will skyrocket to when the bull run officially start after the halving, unless you are not a long term holder.

But as a long term holder that I am, I pay more attention at accumulating now, because I still feels that I have not accumulated enough Bitcoin, because since am still in my 20's, I believe that it's the perfect means to build my finances for the future, so I suggest just as @mayor of ogba had already said,  this is the perfect opportunity to buy more than getting worried of it current price.

I haven't had a chance to work out for a long time, thanks to this thread I'm back. The bull run in the market feels good too. I continue to do 100 push-ups, not every day, but every other day and let the muscles regenerate.
Don't just focus on upper body and skip leg day btw, you know the biggest muscles of the body are in your legs. Smiley
For me 100 push up a day is possible. Beside , it has many advantage to the body system leading to burning of fat and general body building. 100 push up per day is a whole lot of exercise that anybody that indulge in it will appreciate in the near future as it help in maintaining a good body building and fitness especially those that have big belle.
Doing 100 push up everyday help the body to excret many toxic system in the body through sweating and if consistency is maintain it will help in longevity of life. However, going by the current trend in the price of Bitcoin the possible of Bitcoin reaching 100k is feasible because time is always directly proportional to rise in the value of money and commodity therefore the same rise in value with time is also applicable to Bitcoin.

Yeah I have been thinking about this too. I was wondering how to make sure that the lower part of the body is also carried along. Same way our upper body is building up it will be good if our lower body is building too, especially the leg. Gradually my body is turning into a lion shape. A huge upper body and a small waste and leg. How do I make sure the leg  trained as well?
To train your legs to be balanced with your upper body, you need to do a leg workout. You can go to the gym to get the right equipment that you can use and do the leg workout, but if you don't have access to the gym, just look for a heavy stone in your neighborhood that you will hold with your two hands and do squats to train your leg. It is painful to do, but it will help you build your leg.

40 days in the books for me since starting this challenge. That’s 4,000 push-ups! I’m glad to see Bitcoin rallying so hard with the hope that we will soon be able to declare victory over this challenge. With a little luck we’ll get there before the halving so we can all get some much needed rest for our muscles.
Just 10 days for me.. In a very short time I have tried to make some variation in my quality of life, although I have increased my push-ups but only slightly.I'm a bit fat so it's hard for me..actually I'm doing 6 push-ups, 2 times a day, afternoon and night. Just I going to walk in the morning. I'm feeling nice participating with you, I haven't lost weight yet but I hope it will if I do regular push-ups.

You started this thread with a push-up of $100k of bitcoins with a good will and I think your aim was initially successful. Now bitcoin price is going up and down from $70k to $72k...maybe it will take some time to reach $100k...I think if the price doesn't reach $100 a in this session then you can open 2nd session again or next 3rd session..Just like we can't do 100 push-ups at once, splitting the session. You can split the session too.

I just shared my idea.

It is good that you are doing something rather than nothing, but it seems that you need a certain number of reps for each of your sets and then maybe even adding more sets per day, and I am not sure how you get that, because 2 sets of 6 pushups in a day do not seem like very many.. .. and maybe there could be ways to do modified pushups in order to get more reps.. if you are not already doing modified pushups in order to increase your reps.. and maybe work up to 3 to 5 sets per day or something like that.. and maybe add 1 more push up to your sets every few days.... If you are doing full body pushups and ONLY getting 6 pushups, then that might be too much strain on you body, and so it would be good to work up to a set of 10, even if they are modified... 3 to 5 sets of 6-12 pushups per day might be really making progress... and so that would be 30 to 60 push-ups.

In contemplation of your goals and maybe how much weight you are pushing, this article has some suggestions regarding number of repetitions and sets.

Yes... you are right, it would be great if the set can be increased little by little every day. In this case, the level of effort will increase and time will be spent. It can definitely help me lose weight. There is another problem... if you work hard, the food level increases... so how to lose weight? We have to live with many problems. The body needs protein for energy, eating it again increases weight... In this case, the level of meat can be increased. However, it is important to keep checks and balances on push-ups and meals. Only then fat people like me can lose fat, but it is not an easy task.

I got two sets of fifty in today for the first time. It felt pretty good. I feel like there’s hope that I could get to 100 straight by the time we hit $100K if I can manage to keep it up. This challenge has been going on long enough now to where I’m proud to see people sticking with it. I know I would have missed a day by now if I didn’t have this thread going so thanks to all the participants.

Those who haven't done workout for long time like me should not go for high number of push-ups straight away. Start with less number of push-ups unless you feel that your muscles are regenerated for high number of Push-Ups.
If you focus on upper body and ignore lower part then you have a posture where your upper part if heavy while legs are thin and that posture looks quite ugly. So one must follow a balance approach for whole body.
Bull run and work combo is best.

I resumed my 100 push-ups this morning after I took a break because of a setback. After I finished my 100 push-ups this morning, I must say that exercise is good for the body because my body is now active and flexible. I found it hard to complete the 100 push-ups because of the break I took, but I still made sure that I completed the 100 push-ups.

Don't forget about balance friends.  As many pushups as you do, you should equally focus on good posture.  Shoulders back, chest out, pelvis rotated forward.  Yeah baby, balance in all things.  Use your new chest muscles as resistance bands to work your shoulder blades.  My piece of paper blew away in the wind, so now I have this lame, lifeless, libre office spreadsheet in front of me.  Just kidding, spreadsheets rock!  You Are Making A Difference!  EDIT:  I totally forgot to mention, look at that coincidence with my nonsense debt limit!  I just happened to solve a problem which gave me extra motivation today, and I ended up right under 690.  <3  Another thing I'm changing is I'm going to make the last set of the day, an as many as I can do set.  If that makes sense.  Today it was 22.

Those who are not used to push-ups can start less in their initial position. If you do too many push-ups in a day to show your bravery, you will end up physically exhausted, as it happened to me also. It took a few days for Muscles to recover. This is why you need to complete push-ups with patience and endurance. Push-ups not only stress the chest and arm muscles but also affect the whole body. It is not true that push-ups only improve the upper body and not the lower part . As a result of push-ups, vibrations are created throughout the body. Still if more vibration is needed you can try Mike Tyson push-ups.

I know I would have missed a day by now if I didn’t have this thread going so thanks to all the participants.
I also what to use this medium to say a very big thank you for bringing up a very vital thread which has help some many persons here expecially my self.
Being a participant of this 100 push-up per day till Bitcoin hits $100k has been of great help to me, there are some little house chores I normally do then which i get tired easily like cutting of grasses in the compound, fetching of water from our neighbors compound to ours and also some farm work but since I started participating in this challenge I noticed I no longer get tired easily again when doing my house chores that means it has helped me regain fitness and energy to do more push up till Bitcoin hit $100k.
Honestly at first I thought this challenge is going to be a mission impossible for me doing 100 push-up a day but now it has become real I now do more than 150+ per day seeing the good divident attached to exercise. Once more thank you @OgNasty

I want to join you in this event and from this moment. Joining midway though, hope with you guys have a great time. Pushup is really difficult and at a time 100 pushup is impossible. I have seen many comments and tried it myself and found it very difficult. But what I could understand is that first of all, you can't hurt yourself, if you can divide it into 2 or 8 sessions, the pressure on yourself will be less. That's why I hope to start from today.

And the purpose of this thread is "Push-Ups A Day Until Bitcoin Is $100K Challenge" I think the price of Bitcoin will reach $100k by 2024, If I can't do 100 pushups every day.

Still let's start the countdown of pushup from today.

Don't forget about balance friends.  As many pushups as you do, you should equally focus on good posture.  Shoulders back, chest out, pelvis rotated forward.  Yeah baby, balance in all things.  Use your new chest muscles as resistance bands to work your shoulder blades.  My piece of paper blew away in the wind, so now I have this lame, lifeless, libre office spreadsheet in front of me.  Just kidding, spreadsheets rock!  You Are Making A Difference!  EDIT:  I totally forgot to mention, look at that coincidence with my nonsense debt limit!  I just happened to solve a problem which gave me extra motivation today, and I ended up right under 690.  <3  Another thing I'm changing is I'm going to make the last set of the day, an as many as I can do set.  If that makes sense.  Today it was 22.
It's really impressive to see how consistent you are keeping to the challenge. Myself I have been slacking for some days, just like you I have never done below 60 since this challenge started. I think you were able to hit this record high 152 in a single day because you have been building momentum and consolidated in the region of 80 and you finally broke the resistance and shoot as high as 152. This exactly what's happening to bitcoin currently it's gathering momentum and when it shoots this time it will be another ATH. $100k and above.

I got two sets of fifty in today for the first time. It felt pretty good. I feel like there’s hope that I could get to 100 straight by the time we hit $100K if I can manage to keep it up. This challenge has been going on long enough now to where I’m proud to see people sticking with it. I know I would have missed a day by now if I didn’t have this thread going so thanks to all the participants.
If you continue hitting the 100 push-ups in two sets for some weeks, it will get used to your body, and you will not want to do any push-ups that are below fifth because you will not want to reduce your morale of hitting 100 push-ups one day in a set. After you have done the fifty push-ups for some weeks and gained some strength, you can increase it to 70 push-ups in a set to see if you can handle it. If you successfully handled the 70 push-ups without too much struggle, then you can now do the 100 push-ups in a set because you have prepared your body for it.  have prepared your body for it.

40 days in the books for me since starting this challenge. That’s 4,000 push-ups! I’m glad to see Bitcoin rallying so hard with the hope that we will soon be able to declare victory over this challenge. With a little luck we’ll get there before the halving so we can all get some much needed rest for our muscles.
Just 10 days for me.. In a very short time I have tried to make some variation in my quality of life, although I have increased my push-ups but only slightly.I'm a bit fat so it's hard for me..actually I'm doing 6 push-ups, 2 times a day, afternoon and night. Just I going to walk in the morning. I'm feeling nice participating with you, I haven't lost weight yet but I hope it will if I do regular push-ups.

You started this thread with a push-up of $100k of bitcoins with a good will and I think your aim was initially successful. Now bitcoin price is going up and down from $70k to $72k...maybe it will take some time to reach $100k...I think if the price doesn't reach $100 a in this session then you can open 2nd session again or next 3rd session..Just like we can't do 100 push-ups at once, splitting the session. You can split the session too.

I just shared my idea.
It is good that you are doing something rather than nothing, but it seems that you need a certain number of reps for each of your sets and then maybe even adding more sets per day, and I am not sure how you get that, because 2 sets of 6 pushups in a day do not seem like very many.. .. and maybe there could be ways to do modified pushups in order to get more reps.. if you are not already doing modified pushups in order to increase your reps.. and maybe work up to 3 to 5 sets per day or something like that.. and maybe add 1 more push up to your sets every few days.... If you are doing full body pushups and ONLY getting 6 pushups, then that might be too much strain on you body, and so it would be good to work up to a set of 10, even if they are modified... 3 to 5 sets of 6-12 pushups per day might be really making progress... and so that would be 30 to 60 push-ups.

In contemplation of your goals and maybe how much weight you are pushing, this article has some suggestions regarding number of repetitions and sets.
Yes... you are right, it would be great if the set can be increased little by little every day. In this case, the level of effort will increase and time will be spent. It can definitely help me lose weight. There is another problem... if you work hard, the food level increases... so how to lose weight? We have to live with many problems. The body needs protein for energy, eating it again increases weight... In this case, the level of meat can be increased. However, it is important to keep checks and balances on push-ups and meals. Only then fat people like me can lose fat, but it is not an easy task.

Personally, I am a pretty big advocate of low carb and high fat diets.... so trying to stay natural with your foods, and then you can eat as much as you want as long as you are cutting out most of the bad stuff that might be high in sugars or high in unnatural kinds of oils or very processed foods that have a lot of artificial ingredients that interfere with your body's absorption of nutrients.

So maybe it depends upon what you are eating, because if you are starting to eat more, but you are eating better quality foods, even thinking about eating natural foods instead of processed, then you should still be advantaged, even if your appetite might have been getting higher based on your increasing levels of activity... without knowing more about the kinds of food you are eating, it might be more difficult to say what kinds of adjustments that you might want to make in regards to the kind of foods you are eating.   If you eat a lot of carbs then those have more likelihoods to keep you from losing weight.. especially processed carbs.. 

I do know that sometimes when I eat a lot of foods with dairy, I will get a bit sluggish in my work-outs, so sometimes I try to moderate my dairy, or maybe eat some of the dairy after I do my pushups rather than before, even though I am spreading my pushups through the whole day. so I am not completely able to do my push-ups before eating, even though I try to structure them a bit in that direction when possible.

Another decently important component is making sure that you are sleeping well, so then if you have the increased activities through your increased focus on daily exercising, then maybe that would also help you to sleep better too.. perhaps?.. so yeah 6-9 hours of good sleep helps your bodies recovery and likely its abilities to process nutrients better.

I got two sets of fifty in today for the first time. It felt pretty good. I feel like there’s hope that I could get to 100 straight by the time we hit $100K if I can manage to keep it up. This challenge has been going on long enough now to where I’m proud to see people sticking with it. I know I would have missed a day by now if I didn’t have this thread going so thanks to all the participants.

The two sets of 50 is a very good accomplishment.. and yeah if you are able to accomplish more pushups in one set then that would also be good.

I am still stuck mostly between 30 and 40 each set, and I just have to wait for my body to be ready.... because I know that I could push it, but I also know that my body is not ready since frequently if I get into the 40s push-ups territory, I have a lot of strain and I am just not powerful enough in terms of either my joints or my muscles, and for sure I want to be able to do other things and also do further sets of pushups, so I am only going to push myself as far as I can feel that it makes sense for me.

By the way, a couple of days ago, I went for my walk and was walking through a park that had some exercise equipment, and surely there can be some envy in terms of seeing some of the exercises that guys (and gals) are doing outside and sometimes a bit hot and uncomfortable, depending on what time of the day.. I was walking late afternoon, but people still doing pushups on the cement and other kinds of exercises. I even saw really fat people exercising at that particular time, and doing pushups against the cement barrier of a short wall.. so it is easier for them... but yeah, they are doing them as part of a group, and I feel some admiration for different skills people have, and also there can be group exercises (and classes outside too).. so yeah, groups are ways that sometimes people can do exercises that they might not otherwise want to do.

Another thing I'm changing is I'm going to make the last set of the day, an as many as I can do set.  If that makes sense.  Today it was 22.

That makes sense.  I might have to try something like that.... and maybe there could be some saving up for either the last set of the day or a certain set that will serve as the attempt to maximize.. scares me just to think about it... .. regarding your 22... in order to get 152 in a day, then that means that you have been doing a lot of sets with relatively lower counts in order to get to your total...  I suppose that could work, but there likely is some value in resting between sets.. but yeah, each of us has to figure out what kind of a balance works for us..  We do get to know some of the limits of our body when we are doing these kinds of activities.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

I've been slacking a bit, but I hit a daily PR today with 152 so far!

That does seem to be the way my body works at least.  Start training, and not really see results too quick, but then take off.  The momentum is also there the other direction, I believe, where I can remember stopping being active during past times, but not getting weaker until around a month has passed.  So let's stick with it together!

I meant to mention that.  It seems silly but you convinced me it's a lot easier to do 100 in a day, if you can do at least 25 in a set.   I remember when I was sticking to 10 a set, and not pushing for  11 or 12.  That really held me back.  So if one can only do 1 pushup today, tomorrow try to do 2.  Yesterday I did 03-15-2024   30   25   25   25   25   22

When I was at my old job I had a friend who I would go out with every morning to do morning work, along with push ups and other exercises.  When I moved my friend disappeared along with my exercise habit.  I am very late to see this platform.  Although it is late, it is nice to think that I have found someone like a lost friend.  This time my body will be practiced through a rhythm.  I think I can do this for quite some time because the price of Bitcoin is going up and down.  I think it will take some time to reach $100K.  But in the beginning I can't give pushups very much.  Slowly maybe I can reach the goal.

I usually have my best and quality push ups at the first 25
Yes I can do 25 at a stretch but sometimes I will do 28 but after having some rest I can still go up to 20 where the more I go the less It become.

Yeah you are welcome to the challenge, don't be discouraged you can start slowly as you said but you have to be consistent that way you can more better as days goes on.

Oh?  That looks better than I thought that it was going to look... because I had kind of presumed that the 22 from the last set was going to end up being the highest quantity of push-ups in a set for the day for you... .. so I was thinking that maybe you would be holding back and doing a modest amount and then one set (the last of the day), you would do as many as you could which would surpass your earlier more reserved sets..

I had been considering for myself whether I should try to have a set like that during the day, but I think that what I do, or plan to do, is just do however many I can do, which usually is between 30 and 40 these days, and then if I am feeling some kind of extra energy when I get to 40 then maybe I will push for 45 or 50, and so far, I have only had around 3 sets (in my 41 days of pushups) in which I did more than 40 pushups.. so I have 2 sets of 45 and 1 set of 50... and I am o.k. with that.. even though I might be due for another 45 or 50 one of these days when I might feel like trying to push a bit more... 40 already starts to hurt pretty bad.. and I have a bunch of sets of 40.. maybe around 16.. and now that I look at it, they seem to be more skewed towards being the 1st set of the day.. so yeah, that kind of makes sense in terms of the likelihood of being more rested.
 
Now I am thinking that maybe I should assume that you are spreading your push-up sets through the whole day..? my current practice of mostly five sets per day tend to be spread over around 12 hours.. yet .. there has been some days in which the range was anywhere from 9 to 14 hours between the 1st set and the last set of the day.. with most of them landing around 12 hours... so sometimes there is an hour between sets and then other times there could be up to 6 hours or more between some sets - maybe by accident or maybe just having other activities getting in the way of my being able to do one of the push up sets.
