While doing push ups and build those muscles we need to consider nutrition in other to achieve those desired muscles, certain foods can help build our muscles, replenish nutrients, avoid fatigue, recover from training and maintaining their energy levels.

I will list some foods that my doctor listed for me that can help while doing this push up in other to achieve our goals properly.
This food I'm about to list contains protein to help someone build muscle. and they are.

Turkey
A cup of chopped turkey contains 37.23 g of protein, while a turkey drumstick contains nearly 27 g of protein.
Like chicken, turkey is a low fat protein source that is adaptable to different meals and recipes.

Why Turkey and chicken rather than pork, beef, lamb, organ meats and/or other kinds of meats - including fatty meats?  What is wrong with fatty meats?  Do you believe that low fat diets actually are a good thing? (especially when it comes to animal fats?)

Yeah, I can understand avoiding some kinds of fats, such as various kinds of artificially created fats like seed oils. but being steered towards turkey and chicken as the main nutritious land-based meats seems problematic.

Cottage cheese
Part-skimmed cottage cheese contains 14 g of protein per half-cup.
Cottage cheese is also rich in calcium for healthy bones.

Why skimmed?  Why not full fat and/or raw?  Yeah, there is a preference for processed.. and yeah, there is a propaganda against fats.

Salmon
A 227 g salmon steak contains 58.5 gTrusted Source of protein.
Salmon also contains omega-3 fatty acids, which have health benefits, including preventing muscle loss in older adults.

I agree that salmon is probably pretty good, especially if referring to natural fats that it has.. yet is there a problem with other fish and seafood?  yes we have some potential mercury problems and even farm raised with some of the various kinds of seafood.

Milk
Skimmed or 1% fat milk contains 8 g of protein per 8 oz, and high protein milk contains 13 g of protein per 8 oz.
As long as individuals tolerate milk, it can be a healthy choice to boost protein and hydration after exercise.
Milk also contains calcium which people require for healthy bones.

again, why low fat?  why processed?  Why not raw?  I know raw has been vilified all around the world, and I am rarely consuming raw dairy based on the same kinds of difficulties in obtaining it..

Eggs
A boiled or poached egg contains 6.28 g of protein.
Eggs contain the amino acid leucine, which research indicates is essential for muscle synthesis.
Eggs are also a suitable source of B vitamins that people need to produce energy.

At least you seem to be referring to the whole egg.. I am not sure if it needs to be cooked or how it is cooked matters so long as it is the whole egg, and some folks get into the egg white nonsense.. again issues with the yolk which is probably the most nutritious part of the egg... .. but yeah, probably in the end eating both the yolk and the eggwhites together would be a good thing no matter how that is accomplished.. and probably grass, bug fed and naturally free range chickens have better eggs than grain fed chickens, though surely all eggs likely have decent nutritiousness.

Chicken
A medium chicken breast without skin weighing 120 g contains 35.5 g of protein.
Chicken without the skin is a low fat protein source that someone can easily add to different meals and recipes.

Again. look at your nonsense about a preference for low fat.. including which parts of the chicken that you are choosing.. surely there is some bad propaganda weaved into this advice that you are giving and relying on a supposed expert of a doctor, which surely I would question doctors in terms of their abilities to give nutritional advice, especially if they are getting schooled under some of the nonsense standards of care ideas around fat phobias and the various wrongness angles of the heart-lipid hypothesis that involve recommending against saturated fats and pushing artificial/substitute fats instead of acknowledging the nutritional benefits/advantages in various natural fats (including animal fats and saturated fats that are included in those) - including attempting to suggest that there is healthiness that can be found in processed foods - including overly allowance of carbs to substitute for meats and the pumping of various plant based proteins that sometimes substitute for meats, which likely has some of its own problems with the various plant-based protein products.. around soy, corn, wheat and perhaps some other attempts at protein substitutes and other ways to fill foods with inferior ingredients in the name of science (and surely profits too).
 

Now I will love us to please eat healthy especially now we are part of this pushups challenge, we all need a variety of protein sources and amino acids to build muscle during training, so please let's all encourage ourselves every day.

#eatinghealthy.

Yes.. eating "healthy" is a good idea; however, if you are spouting out wrong talking points about what is healthy, then that may well end up NOT being so great, even though there could be some truth that some aspects of your low fat baloney might still have some advantages at least if there could be some agreement that eating natural foods is likely more healthy than processed foods or that there are several advantages to stay away from complex carbohydrates (referring to high sugar products).. but still you seem to be lacking in some of your attempt to figure out what is the difference between healthy and not healthy and just spewing out some standards of care talking points that have a lot of disinformation within them that seem to be linked to wrong-thinking about the heart-lipid hypothesis and perhaps an overly allowance of processed foods.. even though your specific recommendations do not seems to specifically go down that road..

Thank you so much for all your corrections but those things I wrote down was a list given to me by a health professional who studied in the university in other to get health knowledge, and I also did some research to be very sure about the list he gave me and low and behold it was correct so I don't know were you are getting your information from, unless you are a health professional I will advise you stop criticizing some of the foods in the list.
I just called my friend who also studied nutrition and I showed him the list and he approved it also, so it will be best you tell us your source that told you some of those food listed are not good for the purpose I mentioned.

What JJG was actually saying is that most of this health professionals or expert are human beings too they may not know all of this as long as life is concerned learning never end those professionals are at one point or another learning different things everyday not that what those expert told you about those nutritional foods are bad but they should try and be specific in some point.
One thing you should always know that those health professionals you mentioned are also humans like you and I yes they maybe right at some point but it's not everything we should believe.

Also people are different. I have type 2 diabetes so all simple carbs basically suck for me to eat.
I have good cholesterol so fats are a zero issue.

keto style diet is good for me but could suck for JJG.

There is a new diet science where they take your dna and design a diet around it.

Mostly for people moderation in food works.

Oh this evening I did 15 minute on the stationary bike and for five of those minutes I did rubber band pulls.

All at a relaxed pace.   Tomorrow I want to do 300 steps 25 flights of stairs up and down. In around ten minutes time.

Keeping records of your pushups can be very good as it tracks your success and progress and shows your strength and weakness too by and possibly how to go about it in working your way up to being better version of yourself as regards to the pushups challenge by writing them down, I never knew about this not until I joined this pushups challenge which am very much happy to a participating, Below is My newest report

First of all you are welcome back to this push ups challenge I can see that you have already achieve a better numbers of push ups challenge, but due to your health condition you could not be able to follow up the push ups thread. However will are very happy to see that you are okay now.

Here is the report format:

100k,YourUserName,DaysofPush-up,Totalpushups,YYYY-MM-DD

For example: my report for today:

100k,Cityhunter34,25,3500,2025-05-25

Thanks for your warm welcome!

Perhaps I have to now make it official, that I'm going part of the challenge. Although I'm far gone into it but for the records here is my report for today after a gym session.

100k, Churchillvv, 111, 11400,2024-05-29

You still got it wrong buddy, there shouldn't be a spacing after 100k, here's the right format below and I will be using your report to show you, so look at it and look at your report too then you will see the difference.

100k,Churchillvv,111,11400,2024-05-29

Does that really count? I'm just giving my report and not writing a code here at least you can see the report that's all they is need for me.

You should be appreciative you are corrected and not to argue about it for what cityhunter just showed you is the right report format everyone is expected to use here if you want you name to appear on the push-up table by spacing your report the data might not capture your report because you did it wrongly or there about.

That is the reason why most people don't grow in life thinking or feeling you are too big to corrected. You were given guideline to do something and you didn't do it correctly and someone is letting you know your mistakes instead being grateful and thankful your are feeling like a super star. Sorry to say, so many people needs to learn most especially character very necessary.

@zackz5000 thank you for also telling him what is needful to do.

I think your response looks so disrespectful here. Cityhunter34 took his time to make sure your push-up report was recorded, but look at the way you responded to him. The push-up report you posted here will not be entered in the push-up table by DirtyKeyboard because there are spaces in your push-up details. It is a format that was decided here on how we should report our push-up details so that everyone's progress will be entered into the push-up table. If there is a mistake in your push-up report details, such as a space between your username, number of days, total number of push-ups, date, month, and year, it will not be entered into the push-up table until you correct yourself. And we are not writing code on this push-up thread; we are doing 100 push-ups a day until bitcoin is $100k.

it is his bicep on his right arm I think.

Thanks for letting me know the part of his body he posted here; the picture was not clear to me when I first viewed it.

....... I know a lot of people here are faking their pushups exercise and might not know the value of eating protein during training nor take this Post very serious

First, how do you know "a lot of guys are faking their pushups?"

Second, how do you define "a lot".. more than 10%, which would be around 4 guys in this particular instance of our currently having 40 pushers who are included in the table?  Or are you referring to guys outside of the table too?

Third, is the lessen about the value of eating protein?  I am not disagreeing with that, but then what other aspects of our diets might we consider?  you have any ideas/opinions about fats?  what about other stuff?  Do you consider that just eating proteins is the key or what else might be going on in terms of diet?.. so yeah the three components of diet, sleep and exercise.. and surely pushups could cover exercise to the extent that there might be other kinds of exercises (or activities) that might be weaved (and vary) into the lifestyles of guys who are currently participating in these pushups..

Fourth.. maybe another side point in regards to considering that not even a lot of guys seem to be participating in these pushups.. or participating in this thread... if currently, we have 40 guys on the table, and how many guys who are not on the table but still may well be participating.. maybe only 10 or perhaps we could have up to an additional 20 guys who might be sporadically doing pushups or who had been doing some of these pushups at various points since this thread started nearly 4 months ago, so it might be really difficult to end up getting up to 100 guys to submit reports in order to end up on the table...

Fifth, getting back to the faker idea, surely it may well be better if they were not fakers, but I would consider quite difficult to verify, so why get worked up about it.. or even presume faking to be a predominant and/or prevalent phenomena.... and if we might confirm someone as an actual faker and we have evidence or the logic of the story does not add up, then what should we do about it?.. If we were to end up having a certain percent as pushup fakers, then maybe we would need some extra non-fakers to make up for the existence of fakers... Maybe there could be a label of "suspected faker?" even though I am not sure how helpful that would end up being or how we might differentiate the ones we consider to be fakers from the non-fakers.


I appreciate you for taking your time to spot out my errors,your corrections are much valued  and appreciated.

I missed reporting my push-up details for a while because of the sickness I suffered from, but I am happy to be doing that this morning. After I recovered from my sickness, I took a break from doing my daily push-ups so that my body would be fully ready to carry out physical exercises. I resumed my push-up challenge last week on Wednesday and until today. For eight days, I did 800 push-ups with an average of 100 push-ups a day,  and 40, 30, and 30 push-ups in my three sets a day. If I add my existing push-up details to my current push-up details, I will have.

Mathematically,
E for existing push-ups = 10626 push-ups
C for current push-ups = 800 push-ups
10626 + 800 = 11426 push-ups in 87 days.

I know I know before JJG comments 

But did the Murph yesterday

including

1 mile run
100 pull ups followed by
200 push ups followed by
300 airsquats followed by
1 mile run

did it in 46 minutes and 15 secondes

after the pull ups the 200 push were not a joke
but they went surprisingly good

I went for small sets every time 3 push ups 2 push ups till 200 completed... I just don't know how many minutes it took me.

There is no alternative to exercise to keep your body healthy, so I am definitely trying to work on myself. I used to do all the exercises I could at home including push ups, but recently I joined the gym to keep my body more fit. Every day I spend two hours in the gym and my trainer has made me a certain routine and I try to stick to it. How much I run and how many push-ups I do in 2 hours is recorded in the routine. My gym trainer is also very conscious about food and he has been very strict with me that he won't train me under him if I don't follow his chart. 

I hope that I will be able to follow the rules and maintain my body by exercising according to the rules and regulations that he told me to exercise.

I do these push up work out silently and I feel that this is not enough since we can make our chest,shoulders and tricep looks great but I feel there's lacking since if we only do push up for long time then our tummy left behind that's why I also include some certain exercise that can lessen my belly fat and possible to get a abs on target months so hopefully we can succeed. Although I don't have any strict diet to follow but I'm trying to look forward to try low carb diet or one meal a day so that I can lose weight and get more better physique.

There's a lot of programs good to follow on youtube but looking forward in future if I have time to enroll in a gym, since I think I will be more serious if there's fitness coach will watch or monitor on the activities I've done.

I wish not to miss recording again.

Keeping records of your pushups can be very good as it tracks your success and progress and shows your strength and weakness too by and possibly how to go about it in working your way up to being better version of yourself as regards to the pushups challenge by writing them down, I never knew about this not until I joined this pushups challenge which am very much happy to a participating, Below is My newest report

100k,Tmoonz,90,10042,2024-05-30

Keeping records of pushups and workouts generally is very important, it'll help you to monitor your growth and encourage you to increase the number of workouts. Without counting the number of pushups, it can make you to become sluggish and no physical motivation to push harder. Counting and keeping records have helped me tremendously, not to be lazy, but try and beat my previous records, although it's not easy.

I'm happy that I'm able to push 10 sets in a day, compared to when I joined this energetic thread. My current pushups report, 100k,Kelward,15,628,2024-05-30

I was making some research about pushups online and through the research I discovered that pushups is among the 10 best exercise in the world and was ranking number 5.
Pushups helps a lot of muscles in our body and I will drop a picture so we can know the muscles I'm talking about. 👇



This are the muscles targeted by pushups.

And a research has shown that the more pushups you do the more you reduce the risk of heart disease. Below is the table.👇



So please let's keep pushing is very important to our health.

Brilliant research and thanks for the valuable information most definitely the images were very nice, I’ve been super busy this week with work so I decided to try doing my push-ups twice a day although I don’t count them all in while reporting because I believe if not done In a single set it doesn’t count.
Thanks again guys for this amazing thread and for the daily motivations.

I have 12 steps to first floor from kitchen in second floor.

so I am still  discovering just how many steps / flights of stairs I can do.

I WENT to doctor  to check the operation healing so doctor was happy. But he saw me early so I decided to do one set at lunch vs 2 one at breakfast one at dinner.

SINCE I did just one set I did 240 steps up and down which is 20 flights of stairs up and down. IT is real cardio work. I COULD do more steps than 240 I am now past 8 minutes time. WANT TO ADD to steps and time.

I decided to try to do 1 set a day and get to 15-20 minutes

I did 276 steps or 23 flights of stairs today in 9 minutes and 2 seconds.

After dinner I will do relaxed cycle time with rubber band curls.

I work upper body and allow my legs a stretch exercise.

The dual stair workout was not allowing me recovery time

I did 288 steps 24 flights of stairs in 9 minutes and 58 seconds.

I think I am closing in on how many I can really do as today my left knee felt just a bit of pain after exercise.

After dinner I will do relaxed stationary cycle and pull the rubber bands for arm muscle .

Ever since I joined this thread I have been doing physical exercises regularly with push-ups and I have lost 10kg in my body fat which is really great. I regularly go out for a walk in the morning and do 1 hour of exercise. In the morning I complete 3 sets of push-ups and each set is 10-15 hours. Even if I get a gap during the office, I complete 2 sets. This type of motivational thread is definitely needed. On the one hand, it is beneficial for health and on the other hand, it is the motivation for the increase in the price of Bitcoin to $100k.

I realized by myself how important physical fitness is for a person. I have realized since long time that my body weight is increasing day by day I was not so conscious about fitness. But due to my weight increasing day by day I felt restless and various problems were arising so I joined a gym near my house. I have been joining the gym for three months now and I never thought I could change my physical fitness so quickly. But all my food has to follow above the gym food list. But I now understand how important a person's physical fitness is, every person should look after their own physical fitness. Especially we should avoid taking any healthy food such as fast food, sweets, etc. All these foods add a lot of weight to our body. So we must change the food menu and focus on our physical fitness.

Wow!!!

Starting out pretty BIG for a newbie.. and supposedly an "already in-shape pusher."

Also people are different. I have type 2 diabetes so all simple carbs basically suck for me to eat.
I have good cholesterol so fats are a zero issue.

keto style diet is good for me but could suck for JJG.

You probably are not completely wrong on this matter, yet it can be a bit problematic to go too far down the road to dietary relativism, and to proclaim that everyone can do what they like in terms of figuring out their own proper balance.

Sure some folks can tolerate bad foods more than others including having good genetics or even having an ancestral history in which they might have had more of a certain kind of food in their diet, but dietary relativism can ONLY go so far in terms of our accepting some of the bad, wrong and/or incorrect/misleading information regarding some kinds of foods and some kinds of food-like products that we probably either should not be eating or ONLY eating in small moderation or in some kind of an emergency situation.. maybe going back to the butter versus margarine example.  People probably should not be eating margarine... but food companies are still allowed to make such inferior products and to market them as if they were almost the same as butter.. and there are quite a few other examples like that, and surely I am not quite sure about the solution to these kinds of food quality (or food substitute) matters, even if we consider various GMOs or aspartame as a sugar substitute, the irradiation of food without our knowledge, or even the creation of artificial meats that are sludge and/or various combination of meat and meat substitutes and frequently misleading, various ways of putting corn and/or soy products into foods in misleading ways... and part of the reason that I have concerns about overly intervening is that I become somewhat worried to have too much BIG Daddy government into some of these matter, yet at the same time, part of the problem might have had come from BIG daddy government's allowing and sometimes even promoting some of the substitution of real foods for processed foods that are clearly inferior if we really were to allow the looking into the matters.

There is a new diet science where they take your dna and design a diet around it.

Could be helpful depending on how some of this is used.

Mostly for people moderation in food works.

Everything in moderation is a problematic philosophy when it comes to some of the dietary matters.  There are problems with the vegan and vegetarian  mindsets and/or framing of matters, and surely the vegan route is even more problematic than the vegetarian one.. even though surely there may well be some decent ideology motivations behind both ideas, even when they likely are problematic for actual personal health..   though surely some folks can tolerate variations of vegan and vegetarian diets more than others.. .. and maybe something like a mostly whole foods vegetarian diet that still includes eggs and some fish or something like that might still end up with all of the nutrients in the diet without the need for various kinds of supplements to make up for deficiencies that would come if purely following a vegetarian diet..

We can probably ONLY go so far in terms of arguing these kinds of points, and probably getting way beyond the topic of this thread. .even though surely  to the extent that we are doing pushups for personal health reasons, many of us (including yours truly do end up putting diet and sleep) as being slightly higher than exercise.. and really exercise can really vary with folks, and some of them have chimed into this thread with a kind of anti-pushup way of framing matters, but still may accept a premise that some kind of physically active lifestyle would be preferred over a physically inactive lifestyle, so we still might get some acceptance of the role of exercise/activities but not necessarily having agreement about pushups, resistance training or other kinds of specifically exercise driven activities to be necessary to purposefully do so long as there is a decent amount of other ways of staying physically active... which surely might have some truth to it.

First, how do you know "a lot of guys are faking their pushups?"

Second, how do you define "a lot".. 

Fifth, getting back to the faker idea, [edited out]

I appreciate you for taking your time to spot out my errors,your corrections are much valued  and appreciated.

You quoted me (but failed to show from where it came - which I corrected above), but you did not respond to any of my points beyond saying that you appreciate them..   

In some kind of a way isn't your lack of a substantive response a wee bit ridiculous?  especially since you stated that you appreciate that I took my time to point out some matters, but you still did not say anything of substance in your response.

I know I know before JJG comments 

Yes.  From my perspective, I am inferring that you must not want to be included in the table.. That's your choice.

Interesting.  I wonder if your trainer's nutritional chart is retarded or not?  It is funny that some guys might want to consider that there might be some expertise behind certain kinds of charts, especially from someone like a personal trainer..  but you would think that personal trainers should know what they are talking about... at least in theory.  It's up to you if you want to share such nutritional charts so maybe some of us (including yours truly) may want to consider what we might think about such nutritional chart.  So part of my point is that merely because a personal trainer says it, that would not necessarily mean that it is free from either bad or misleading information.


By the way.. I noticed that the current status of the poll to this thread is that 73 members had expressed some level of interest in doing pushups, and so I wonder the extent to which aspiring to get 100 or more members to participate in the submission of formal reports (in order to get their names in the table) is very realistic.. .. at least in the short-term.. unless maybe there might be some guys who want to attempt to lobby to get more pusher participants.. and surely, I am not very much interested in actual lobbying, since my own thoughts are that forum members who are interested in such topic will have some ability to gravitate towards this thread, and sooner or later we are likely going to end up having more than 100 forum members in the pushup thread.. ..

Another competing theory is Dunbar's number.. so theoretically, there might be some "natural" limits in terms of how many members feel comfortable joining into an already pre-existing group as the group gets BIGGER (I am kind of kidding about Dunbar's number, but does not hurt to throw out various possible and potential theories).
