100 Push-Ups A Day Until Bitcoin Is $100K Challenge

[Lanatsa]

For those who are having difficulty maintaining a certain number of push-ups in each set, such as doing 15 push-ups each in 5 sets, when you are doing your push-up, do not be in a rush to complete your push-up. Always take a minimum of 20 minutes to rest before you can start another set so that you will have enough strength to do the same number of push-ups you did in your first set.

This is very important, we don't have to take the challenge as a military work. Yes we have to be committed to the challenge, but it shouldn't come to you as a burden. If you make it looks like a burden to you, you won't enjoy the challenge. You should spread out your sets, so don't be much of a stress to you. Moreover nobody is punishing you for not doing all sets at a stretch.

Why this one ends up on something to be an issue? Of course no one is really that forcing you to do push ups. Its true that if this one turns out to be that a stressful thing and not something that you do enjoy
with then there's no point on continuing but since most people here are Bitcoin enthusiast or someone who do support or loves to see Bitcoins price to shoot up into the moon then this kind of activity
will really be giving out that kind of interest for you to pursue at the same time you would really be making your body to be healthy as well considering its an exercise.

It doesnt really need up to be directly be getting that 100 push ups directly which pretty sure that 99% of people would really be failing up on the first attempt.
Dont force yourself if you've seen that you've failed. Not everything could really be done on first try so its normal that you would be needing that gradual approach on things.

.Everyone should examine any strategies shared here thoroughly to know if they will suit their body strength so that there will not be any shoulder injury in this challenge.

A body that's  has alot of fats  and not used to burning this fats will definitely  feel alot of pains than usual  while burning  those fats.
Moreover, it don't  have to be  physically fat  to possess  some body fat levels it's called  "Skinny Fat" that's  why its  advice to always check your  BMI (Body mass Index ) .
Did some little  practice  3years back when I was starting to learn how to code although I'm  not more of a python  dev again  

Code:

x=int(input("Your weight  "))
b= (float(input("Your height  ")))**2
p=(x/b)
print(p)
if p < 18.5 :
	print("under weight")
elif  18.5 <=p <  25:
	print("Normal")
elif  25 <= p< 29 :
	print("Over weight")
elif p >= 30 :
	print("Obesity")

There are standard calculators on net that archives this currently you can check https://www.nasm.org/resources/bmi-calculator

Back to the arm pain , the arm pain  is not going  to be the only pain but also your  lower arm,lower chest,  eight and left side of your abdomen, the muscles covering the back pat of your tibia shaft and lot more. The only way one could eventually  avoid  this is by taking rest some days to prevent being  overwhelmed by the pain or you could try some other exercise that are of less effort or probably  reducing  the pushups for some period  will do
Don't  worry  keep up the work  $100k will be achieved  soon...

I don't want to do this anymore.

This pussy is dead to me now.  The first thing I do when I wake up is push-ups.  I'm now fully addicted.  Hard to believe that less than a month ago I was thinking that I wanted to quit.  I look and feel so much better, I feel lucky that I stumbled across this challenge online and decided it would be a good thing for this forum.  I wouldn't say it's changed my life, but it's definitely improved it.  I can do more push-ups now then I could when I was 20!  I won't ever win any races against my younger self, but I'd bet I could kick his ass in a boxing match (he would disagree).  

I am beginning to wonder if maybe halving day can be considered a holiday for a day off break or if that is just weakness talking...

Pure weakness.  I'm ashamed I posted this.  April 19th, halving day.  That means twice as many push-ups.  Anybody else in for a 200 push-up day on Friday or do you want a day off?

For those who are having difficulty maintaining a certain number of push-ups in each set, such as doing 15 push-ups each in 5 sets, when you are doing your push-up, do not be in a rush to complete your push-up. Always take a minimum of 20 minutes to rest before you can start another set so that you will have enough strength to do the same number of push-ups you did in your first set.

I think 20mins is too much to take a rest, when you feel that tiredness while doing the push up and you don't stop that's when you get the effects more, and 30 seconds is enough for a rest. Whenever you rest for long like up to 20mins like you said, it might discourage you from continuing the task for the day, for me I do 100 every morning with some other fitness exercises, 30secs rest and I go again, like 2 to 3 times repeating same process even at night and whenever you do your exercise take a lot of water,  it helps.

This challenge made some people do push-ups for the first time in their lives. If they adopt this 30-second rest before they start another set, they may want to quit this challenge because they will not have enough strength to even do up to five push-ups in the second set. If I adopt this strategy, I will not maintain my 50 push-ups in a set because my body will not get enough rest that will allow me to endure pain and still push until I reach 50 push-ups in my second set. Taking enough rest when working out is important for our bodies.

I agree with you but you must know that it all depends on the individual and if you're use to it you won't feel like having that 20mins rest, you'll continue going on with the push up and it will be more fun, just like a child eating chocolate, you won't want like to stop but continue doing it because your body has adapted to it. Well, I'd say you should continue with whatever strategy that suit you, let's hope the upcoming days will be on the positive side with Bitcoin price going higher and also giving us that motivation to continue the challenge.

I know what you are talking about because I used this type of strategy when I did a chest workout with my friend, and I must say it requires a lot of strength to keep up with it. Since we are not in competition here, we need a strategy that will allow us to have enough rest. We can even take some days off from this challenge just to get enough rest if our bodies are stressed out so much.

I quite agree with you on giving it a break but what's in you is in you and nothing can take it away from you.

In as much as is good to take a break that break shouldn't be for a longer time, for at that time what is in you can never be as before again for it going to take some workout before getting to your normal limit or your maximum numbers of push-up because you might loss some little stamina and energy the period you where on break.
So I disagree with that your write up "what's in you is in you", not in exercise.

I'm in with you for the 200 push-ups on Friday. It is a great thing that the bitcoin halving is near, and doing 200 push-ups on that day will be a nice thing to do, and we can use the 200 push-ups to celebrate the bitcoin halving. People who can do 200 push-ups should join us so that our overall push-ups will increase, and it will help us achieve 100,000 push-ups before bitcoin reaches $100k.

Am in for this particular challenge on Friday, hitting 200 push-up on Friday is really going to be great moment and it will also be an added advantage in regards to my push-up growth because performing push-up at such high number like 200 will help to increase muscles mass and muscle growth.
And a better way I can achieve this 200 push-up on Friday is to perform it in 5 set, 20 reps in each of the set morning and evening that will make it a total of 200 push up.
So I will be considering halving day as a day of achieving 200 push-up, so @OgNasty am solidly behind you on this 200 push-up on halving day.

This is indeed exciting   . Hitting 200 pushups during the halving won't be more of a challenge   count me in I'm going to give it my best because that I'm going to be all fired upppp , so I will definitely try and pull it off though.

I'm going to reduce the rate of my pushups to be well prepared for that day, after hitting the pushups I'm. Damn sure that my body won't be able to hit the previous day pushups . Well I'm definitely going to make use of sets, just have to think on how break it into sets .

I kept to you guys advice due to my sore shoulder I did only 50 pushups today using two sets 25,25 wasn't that challenging but damn I can't feel my shoulders.

For those who are having difficulty maintaining a certain number of push-ups in each set, such as doing 15 push-ups each in 5 sets, when you are doing your push-up, do not be in a rush to complete your push-up. Always take a minimum of 20 minutes to rest before you can start another set so that you will have enough strength to do the same number of push-ups you did in your first set.

This is very important, we don't have to take the challenge as a military work. Yes we have to be committed to the challenge, but it shouldn't come to you as a burden. If you make it looks like a burden to you, you won't enjoy the challenge. You should spread out your sets, so don't be much of a stress to you. Moreover nobody is punishing you for not doing all sets at a stretch.

That is absolutely true, in as much as people would like to participate in this challenge and meet up the total push up per set  and fulfil the desire of fulfilment of each push up a day, there is need not to handle it under pressure just as you said no body is forcing any one. Though it depends on each individual just as JJG said that If our bodies are not necessarily young, and so if we do pushups throughout the day, there may be 3-6 hours between sets.. this means that age has to play a role here and if age is neglected it will affect some people immensely. Though I believe that each person can not go contrary to his capacity

I quite agree with you on giving it a break but what's in you is in you and nothing can take it away from you.

I disagree with you on this because pratice make perfect they said does not implies in push up. Push up is an exercise that involves a regular exercise that involves consistency which if is not done on a regular basis may turn a person lazy. Just take a break for only one week and see how body system works when not continuously doing something. Our body system works with addiction. When you do something more frequently it becomes part of you and hard to stop. And when you stop, it will need you to start again to become addicted as before. So the way to keep to fit is doing it regularly but not under pressure.

[Troytech]

I can see regrets for those that thought of quiting before and now that they are used to it, its all fun for them.

Today I would have exceed all my pushups from when I started till date but I still found myself stopping at 100 pushups, I did have enough energy to exceed but I felt if I do too much the old pain would return and I seriously don't want that for myself now, but nonetheless I'm not gonna stop pushing further now, I'll try adding an extra 5 to each of my sets, making it 25 each, that way I won't feel much pain than trying to add an extra 20 at once to reduce the effect so my body would adjust slowly to the increase in number of pushups.

My report for yesterday sorry its coming late here.

The halving is really getting everyone fired up, I'm seriously buying into the idea of doing some extra pushups for that day to give it the honour it deserves, but right now I don't think I can go 200 all out at once, maybe a 150 would be okay for me at this point.

I can do other things to make it grand myself, maybe adding making it an all fruits day and vegetables, one day to be a vegetarian to promote my health, that's something I can do for sure   .

We talked about getting everyone to participate in the challenge on the halving day, how about that, how do we get it done?

[Tungbulu]

Pure weakness.  I'm ashamed I posted this.

I really don't think there's any point being ashamed, I mean you're human and this challenge would've been pretty difficult for any starter and the feeling of giving up would've been normal, I mean someone can't just wake up one morning and start doing 100 push ups a day without having the feeling to give up or quite.

You only got where you are today of your consistency, resilience and progression, I know when you started, it wasn't as easy as it is for you now, you may have even been missing some sets some days. It might be shocking for you to know that not everyone participating on this challenge are honestly reporting their actual progress, some may not even make it to 100 push ups per day but yet still report they did.

I'm just saying that you got better with time and there's no shame in that, there's not shame in failing or having the feeling to quit, those are the things that are included in every success story. There's no successful man out there that didn't have the urge to quit at some point in their lives, what's really important is that you didn't quit, you were resilient and consistent, maybe sometimes you missed some push ups but you continued and didn't let that break you and now here you are, already addicted to success.

Those failures and fear to carry on made you who you are, they're your roadmap to success, so you don't have to be ashamed of it mate, they're stories that should inspire people who are currently in that same shoe, not shameful story that should be scrapped out of the picture.

April 19th, halving day.  That means twice as many push-ups.  Anybody else in for a 200 push-up day on Friday or do you want a day off?

I guess I could try going 200 push ups on halving day, so he'll yeah, challenge accepted   and you're right, that definitely means twices as much efforts i put in achieving a 100 push ups a day, it's not gon be easy I must say but I mean it's a challenge right? And considering the fact that this is infact the very first Halving event I'll be witnessing since I started my Bitcoin Journey is pretty exciting and more than enough juice to get me fired up so let's go for it. #200pushupsonhavlingdaywithOgNasty

[edited out]

In fact, according to the current situation of Bitcoin, it seems a bit impossible for me to get the price of Bitcoin to 100k in the next 38 days, in fact, according to the current situation of Bitcoin, it seems that Bitcoin will be pumping not very soon.

There is an expression in bitcoin (and surely taken from the mere idea of what markets do), which is "The trend is your friend."  So even if we might not like what is going on, it can frequently be difficult to fight the trend, and sure at some point it is going to reverse, which is part of the reason that I personally do not even try to play around with figuring out which way the BTC price is going to go.. and so if the price goes down I buy and if it goes up I sell, and I have been doing this since late 2015 - yet at the same time, the amount of bitcoin that I sell on the way up tends to be such a small amount that it does not add up to be a large portion of my BTC holdings.. so I never run out of bitcoin to sell, and pretty much through the years, there has been a kind of maintenance of the stash going on.. .and an attempt to stay emotionally neutral to the BTC price direction, even though for sure I am better off if the BTC price goes up, while at the same time, since 2015, the BTC price has gone up and continued to go up so evrerything is good.. even when we might have relatively long dipping periods, the overall tendency is for the BTC price to go up, so in that sense verything has been good and continues to be good for anyone who makes his preparations in such a way that he is biased towards preferring UP.

I am so optimistic about Bitcoin, I have decided that I will continue this challenge until the price of Bitcoin crosses 100K, even if I have to wait until the day I do 100 push-ups or 150 push-ups in one day.

I will agree with you that both in starting the pushups, when you were ONLY starting out by doing 20 pushups per day, there were probably the first few days that it made sense to NOT increase your pushups by too much while your body was getting used to doing pushups every single day.  But then after a while, your body starts to get used to it, and probably is able to do more and more pushups each day without suffering any kind of meaningful shock.

Also once you start getting above 100 pushups per day and you continue to add 1 pushup per day, the amounts do start to add up, and you might even have troubles doing it when you start getting into the mid-200s per day, even though surely your body would continue to build all along as long as you con't end up injuring yourself.

I agreed to wait and I will continue the challenge by increasing the push-ups by one each day. My body has become accustomed to giving push-ups like this every day.

Today is day 43 of my push-ups challenge, and I've done 62 push-ups today, and my total push-ups since the challenge started is 1,763push-ups.

You should be creating official reports.. so that in a proper format, your current report should look something like this:

100k,Ricardo11,43,1763,2024-04-17  (looks like Tmoonz already mentioned this - I changed the date in mine to match Tmoonz, and of course, if there is any need for a correction, then Ricardo11 should update it to make it correct).

Please pray for me, that I can continue the challenge well till the end, and that the value of Bitcoin will cross 100K very soon.

I am not sure how much of an effect the praying route will have, and even the specifics of $100k "very soon" seems kind of vague.   (looks like Tmoonz already mentioned this, too).

If our bodies are not necessarily young, and so if we do pushups throughout the day, there may be 3-6 hours between sets.. and depending on if there are 3 or 5 sets in a day, or maybe even more, but I have personally found  5 sets in a day scattered through the whole day to be helpful to be able to carry out the task, including that there continues to be a lot of soreness when adding this kind of activity to a routine and maybe either we had not been doing this kind of activity or that some of us are not very young, so there can be issues with recuperation time.. some older folks might have to start with just a couple sets per day, but then it probably still could be good to try to do something like 5 sets throughout the day, and just trying to figure out how many pushups per set are manageable to balance the soreness, the recuperation time and strength to do more pushups without injuring oneself or overly exhausting ones whole system (including psychology).

I started off the challenge spreading 5 sets of 20s throughout the day, but I've come to realize that by going 5 sets, I get exhausted and drained pretty fast and I'm unable to manage the soreness by trying to maintain 5 sets. I may not be that old but definitely not in my prime, so I'm assuming this is because ive not been doing this kind of activity in a long while, Hence the reason why I find it pretty challenging keeping up with 5 sets. so right now, I'm left with 2 options, reduce the number of push ups I go per set or increase the number of sets i go in order for me to keep up and also be able to balance the soreness.

You probably have more than 2 options in order to figure out a way to attempt to stay consistent with doing your pushups, yet continuing to attempt to build.

You can also reduce the number of pushups per set..

There seems that there would need to be a kind of minimum number to keep doing in order to keep building, so you shouldn't want to go too light on yourself, and you want to do enough to feel that you are making progress...

And, yeah, if you started out by doing too many, it can take your body one or two days just to recover from the first day of overdoing it, so it can hurt a lot to continue or maybe you have to reduce more drastically than you thought, but there still might be somewhere along the line that you start to feel more ready, willing and able to increase the number of pushups that you are doing per set or the number of sets that you are doing.

But, yeah, making some adjustments seems like a good idea, especially if you think that you are not able to just maintain the same that you did.. and you might not even need to adjust as much as you might be thinking that you need to adjust, because sometimes a little bit of a tweak will be enough and your body will get used to it after a few days.. maybe even after a week or so.

I have already mentioned several times that I have a lot of pains, and there are times that I either completely don't want to do it, or even when I am doing it, I want to stop. but frequently I will just make myself do it.. and I think that the main thing is that I am not at injury kind of levels.. it is just various pains and sometimes just feeling that I don't have enough energy..

I would've considered reducing the number of push ups per set (5) but that'll mean that I'll not be able to actualize the goal of hitting at least a 100 push ups per day.

You don't need to do 100 pushups per day.  Sure it would be nice, but it is not necessary.

My first 10 days of pushups looked like this:

2/5/24   50
2/6/24   70
2/7/24   50
2/8/24   90
2/9/24   100
2/10/24   120
2/11/24   115
2/12/24   120
2/13/24   130
2/14/24   135

So I did not get up to 100 pushups until 5 days, but then I kept increasing the number of pushups and later expanded to 5 sets rather than 4 sets.

And you don't even need to look like me.. you can do even fewer and just see how you are feeling as you go.

So since I'm very enthusiastic about accomplishing the task and hitting the daily target, I've decided to increase the number of sets to 6 and reducing the number of push ups to 17 which should give me a total of 102 push ups per day.
I already concluded 4 sets and I've observed that spreading 6 sets of 17 push ups has helped me manage to balance the soreness.
And I've also chosen the the recuperation time between each sets to be at least 2 hours and it fits perfectly on my schedule so I shouldn't be having problems performing the task now.

That all sounds good... to find a balance in your quantities and spreading them out.. and yeah, maybe after a week or so you can reconsider if you need to adjust it again.. but there surely is nothing wrong with that, even if each set seems kind of small, your body is likely to get used to it.
 

Another thing is doing pushups every single day for 100 days or more. The strategy needs to be more careful in order to not wear ourselves out and to be able to keep doing them day after day after day, and if we overdo how many pushups at a time or put them all together in quick sessions, we may well cause ourselves to become too sore, even though sure maybe some younger members are going to be able to accomplish those quick short sessions without having problems in being able to continue to do them day after day after day.

You're right
Pacing oneself should be one of the most important things to be considered essential when performing a fitness challenge such as this one.
If one fails to maintain a good pace and get too carried away and push too hard and too quickly, they may end up getting sore and burned out very quickly before even lasting up to a week.

While it's important to have the objective of this challenge in mind, it's also very crucial to maintain a good pace, consistency and gradual progression should be our number one guide through the challenge. If you observe that your current technique isn't favourable for you, then there is no shame in making some adjustments, everyone must not use the same technique to achieve the same result.

If your body isn't able to manage going a 100 per day, then you can possibly reduce the number of push ups per day or you sort of a more easier technique to help you achieve your daily goals without wearing yourself out.

For sure, in a thread like this, we are trying to talk about a kind of concrete action that any of us should be able to do, as long as we modify whatever quantity and frequency to our own circumstances... so yeah, there can be some similarities to bitcoin in that we can buy into bitcoin in accordance with our circumstances and perhaps build up a quantity of bitcoin..    

I can see regrets for those that thought of quiting before and now that they are used to it, its all fun for them.

Today I would have exceed all my pushups from when I started till date but I still found myself stopping at 100 pushups, I did have enough energy to exceed but I felt if I do too much the old pain would return and I seriously don't want that for myself now, but nonetheless I'm not gonna stop pushing further now, I'll try adding an extra 5 to each of my sets, making it 25 each, that way I won't feel much pain than trying to add an extra 20 at once to reduce the effect so my body would adjust slowly to the increase in number of pushups.

The halving is really getting everyone fired up, I'm seriously buying into the idea of doing some extra pushups for that day to give it the honour it deserves, but right now I don't think I can go 200 all out at once, maybe a 150 would be okay for me at this point.

Of course, you would not have to do 200 at once, but yeah 200 in a day, and I am already tending to do more than 200 each day.. so I am not sure if I can do more (or if I want to do more, so I am not sure if I have any more physical or psychological will power in reserves to maybe throw in an additional set or two as compared to what I am currently doing.. it might not be worth it to push myself too much and then end up overdoing it).

I can do other things to make it grand myself, maybe adding making it an all fruits day and vegetables, one day to be a vegetarian to promote my health, that's something I can do for sure   .

Personally, I doubt that you are more healthy from cutting out meat.  You probably are having the opposite effect, depending on the quality of meat that you eat.  Yeah, if you are eating a bunch of junkie processed foods, then that might not be as healthy as if you were eating various quality meat products.

We talked about getting everyone to participate in the challenge on the halving day, how about that, how do we get it done?

Of course, guys will just volunteer and report what they did and if they did anything extra.

Another thing is that the exact time of the halvening may well overlap the 19th and the 20th...and it is already appearing to be pretty damned close to midnight UTC.. so at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th.. but yeah, that is UTC time.. so maybe it depends on your time zone in regards to what date you count.. or maybe would you change your pushups on the 19th in anticipation of the halvening or on the 20th after you know that the halvening had already successfully taken place (presuming that the halvening will be successful, as it has been so far in the previous 3 halvenings).

Your report format is wrong.

It should look like this:

By the way, your earlier assertion that you are already having difficulties with 100 pushups per day does not make it seem to be a good idea to agree to do 200 pushups on halvening day... but whatever.. you can do what you like.

[Tungbulu]

You probably have more than 2 options in order to figure out a way to attempt to stay consistent with doing your pushups, yet continuing to attempt to build.

You can also reduce the number of pushups per set..

There seems that there would need to be a kind of minimum number to keep doing in order to keep building, so you shouldn't want to go too light on yourself, and you want to do enough to feel that you are making progress...

And, yeah, if you started out by doing too many, it can take your body one or two days just to recover from the first day of overdoing it, so it can hurt a lot to continue or maybe you have to reduce more drastically than you thought, but there still might be somewhere along the line that you start to feel more ready, willing and able to increase the number of pushups that you are doing per set or the number of sets that you are doing.

But, yeah, making some adjustments seems like a good idea, especially if you think that you are not able to just maintain the same that you did.. and you might not even need to adjust as much as you might be thinking that you need to adjust, because sometimes a little bit of a tweak will be enough and your body will get used to it after a few days.. maybe even after a week or so.

Yeah I've come to realize that it's very important to be able to listen to your body and make all the necessary adjustments accordingly when engaging in an exercise routine such as this, because if one gets too carried away and push the body too hard and too fast, it could lead to soreness, injuries, burnout and even reduction in the motivation to carry on. Just as you've demonstrated in your routine, the key is begin slow then gradually increase the intensity and progression.

And speaking of adjustments, it's very true that just a little adjustment could make quite a huge impact in one's recovery and progress and everyone should know how, where and when to make these adjustments rather than trying to fit themselves in someone else's technique which could be awfully tiring and exhausting.

For sure, in a thread like this, we are trying to talk about a kind of concrete action that any of us should be able to do, as long as we modify whatever quantity and frequency to our own circumstances... so yeah, there can be some similarities to bitcoin in that we can buy into bitcoin in accordance with our circumstances and perhaps build up a quantity of bitcoin..    

Absolutely correct.
Just like exercise, one of the amazing fact about Bitcoin is that anyone can customize how they get involved in Bitcoin based on their circumstances. Everyone can choose their different investment techniques, whether to DCA or Lump Summing or any other technique, you can choose how you participate or invest in Bitcoin based on your own personal unique situation.

By the way, your earlier assertion that you are already having difficulties with 100 pushups per day does not make it seem to be a good idea to agree to do 200 pushups on halvening day... but whatever.. you can do what you like.

Yeah, you're absolutely right, going 200 wouldn't be easy, but I figured I could try and make that day a little special by suspending every other activities I have that day to dedicate it to the Halving event, since this is infact the first Halving I'll be witnessing since I started my Bitcoin Journey, I figured I'd make it a lot more interesting and special.

I believe I can be able to achieve doing 200 push ups if I increase the number of sets, perhaps double the usual number that normally gives me a 100, since it's just that day, It shouldn't be a problem as I can easily return to my usual routine after the halving event.

[Mayor of ogba]

For those who are having difficulty maintaining a certain number of push-ups in each set, such as doing 15 push-ups each in 5 sets, when you are doing your push-up, do not be in a rush to complete your push-up. Always take a minimum of 20 minutes to rest before you can start another set so that you will have enough strength to do the same number of push-ups you did in your first set.

This is very important, we don't have to take the challenge as a military work. Yes we have to be committed to the challenge, but it shouldn't come to you as a burden. If you make it looks like a burden to you, you won't enjoy the challenge. You should spread out your sets, so don't be much of a stress to you. Moreover nobody is punishing you for not doing all sets at a stretch.

That is absolutely true, in as much as people would like to participate in this challenge and meet up the total push up per set  and fulfil the desire of fulfilment of each push up a day, there is need not to handle it under pressure just as you said no body is forcing any one. Though it depends on each individual just as JJG said that If our bodies are not necessarily young, and so if we do pushups throughout the day, there may be 3-6 hours between sets.. this means that age has to play a role here and if age is neglected it will affect some people immensely. However I believe that each person can not go contrary to his capacity

There's no need to meet up with a total number of push-ups per set because there is no specific number of push-ups mentioned here that we must meet up with in each set. You can do any number that your strength allows you to do in each set since we are doing this push-up every day, so you will have the strength to participate in this challenge every day.

Are you guys eating protein? That's what the body needs to make new muscle tissue! And hydrate with a good electrolytic drink like apple juice and mineral water in a 50/50 mix with a pinch of salt. Or non-alcoholic beer.

Keep up the good work! 100k is not that far away.

Wow, I saw this before, it's a shame it's a bit sketchy.  It is not Windows certified, but it does run in Wine.
I went for it and installed it, and it looks amazing.  I wish it were a little bit bigger, but there are different skins.  If you install this one, the less than and greater than signs above the colors, are the 'make UI small or big' buttons.

I’m a water guy but I do eat plenty of meat. Mostly beef and pork at the moment but I’m sure I’ll get back on the chicken wagon soon enough. I do take a daily vitamin and sometimes vitamin B12 or collagen but I’m thinking so much regular exercise might benefit from some creatine so I may grab some of that soon too. I’ve been watching a bunch of health influencers lately that make you want to get on testosterone, but I don’t want to screw up my natural production.

But you'll get the most protein if you eat beef, and will help you conserve energy. And that will help to build up the body, you can consume more honey. By consuming honey you will keep your body fresh as much as possible and you will grow two to three times more.
Even if you are of old age, honey will help to rejuvenate your body and you will be able to store energy physically and increase push up.

I've been eating roast chickens and spoonfulls of peanut butter.  This is one of those silly moments, but I feel myself taking up more volume, and can see how that feeling of increasing might be addictive.

PPS: Fascinating.  Because I loosened the script to allow spaces inside of usernames, leading spaces are allowed for that single entry.  meaning format = 100k, user name,notgoingtomakethesamemistake would be accepted.  The fascinating part to me is why the name in the table drops the leading space.  I'm guessing the tabulate module is doing that.

Yes, since I started this challenge, I have been eating eggs and milk, and sometimes I eat chicken breast to help build my upper body, and since then, it has been helpful to me.  Thank you for bringing this information here so that people who were not informed about the importance of protein when working out will now take protein food seriously.

Coming across this thread 100 push ups trigger me like a stimulant knowing that my whole day can be busy with positive energy of working on something tangible even though I regret joining late I love this thread and am interested to be a member  because it is fun and have positive vibes.
