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

[philipma1957]

June 18 I did   5 flights   0 pushups mod style
June 19 I did   6 flights   5 pushups mod style
June 20 I did 10 flights 10 pushups mod style
June 21 I did 12 flights 12 pushups mod style
June 22 I did 13 flights 13 pushups mod style
June 23 I did 14 flights 16 pushups mod style.

June 24 I did 15 flights 16 pushups mod style.

@ JJG.      For Now I will do 16 mod  pushups maybe for a week Then decide if I want to go to 20

The stairs will increase to 40-50 flights should take a month

I am doing the stairs then the pushups while tired from the stairs.

Later in the day lite spinning on the bike and resistance bands.

When and if I get to 20 modded pushups I will decide if I do 2 sets.

For sure your level of exertion and even the order that you do your different kinds of exercises can affect how much energy that you might have left and even some of your priorities. 

I have read (and I even subscribe to the concept) that there are a lot of folks who try to combine resistance training and cardio, and frequently when they do a lot of the cardio first, then they do not have any energy left to do the resistance training, so there can be some advantages in doing the resistance training first.. or towards the beginning.

Since the beginning, I have been complaining about how hard it is to do pushups, and sure I have advanced through the last 141 days of doing pushups, but it is still hard and I have many periods that I don't waant to do them, and then other periods that I add some other exercise activities too.. but it can still be difficult to do either the pushups or the other kind of exercise activities, and sometimes I just can only do one or the other and not both...so I am not even claiming to know.. and also I had some days that I was lugging some things up and down a few flight of stairs, and I made several trips, and so then I end up counting that as part of my days activities and those kinds of physically exerting activities can surely affect how many pushups that I end up doing or how I do the pushups for that day.

I am glad that you have been able to do 16 moded pushups per day.. so that is surely a good level if you are doing them every day... and you may or may not be able to increase them, and part of the reason may well relate to how many other activities you are doing and several of us are not spring chickens and able to just do a bunch of stuff.  The older we are, the more we have to make sure that we allow for enough recovery time for both our muscles and our joints... and surely our energy levels might well relate to the soundness of our diet and sleep too.

quoted this as I am about to start exercise today.

I exercise right after breakfast as it is supposed to burn calories better.

I will get back and edit this to show new stats.

I will do pushups first today to see if I get to 20


So I did

june 25. 17 flights of stairs and 20 pushups modded. I also did a flight of stairs up and down backwards


I follwed jjg and did the pushups first. so doing 20 was possible.


as for sleep crash about 1 am and woke at 8:43 am so just under eight hours of good sleep.

diet breakfast. black coffee omlette with

three whole jumbo eggs
8 eight whites
some nice left over beef brisket
kale
onions
bell peppers
goat cheese
avacado oil
a bit of dried salami
a mission carb balance wrap

now above is enough food for four meals. wife and i will eat it for lunch and breakfast.

high fiber high protein high protein low carb.

[CoinMin3r]

Did 4 sets of 20 reps as usual totaling 80.

100k,CoinMin3r,30,1820,2024-06-25

Doing 80 push-ups a day since a week now in four sets of 20 reps. Before I was doing 60/day.

It is good to see how you are always improving the number of push-ups you do in a set; it shows you are doing your push-ups in the right way. If you keep on with this consistency, you will see yourself achieving 100 push-ups a day, and it will be a great achievement for you because you put in a great effort to be able to achieve 100 push-ups a day.

Yeah I'm doing slowly and consistently & not hurrying to reach 100 directly. Once I feel comfortable I'll increase a little as I did before(50 to 60 & then to 80). I wish BTC and I reach 100 mark at the same time.

I exercise right after breakfast as it is supposed to burn calories better.

I tend to feel that I can exercise better before I eat rather than after eating, but maybe it depends upon how much I eat and also what kind of food, but as a general principle having less food in the belly seems to help me to feel better during my exercises - as long as I am not raving of hunger.

good fats are important.. .. so the whole eggs have good fats (in the yolks), beef brisket might have good fats as long as you did not overly trim it... avocado oil is probably o.k.  but good fat from meat is probably better than fats from plants.. coconut oil is good even though it is from a plant as long as it is cold-pressed virgin so not processed much if any..  there probably is some decently o.k. fat in the goat cheese, but maybe depends on the kind..  All of us likely need to be careful about excluding fats... especially when we are getting older and we need fat for our joints and muscles (and brains), but surely nothing wrong with limiting carbs, and your carbs do not look to be bad since they are mostly vegetables.. .. in terms of some folks eating too much bread and/or other wheat products.,.and I am even guilty of allowing that kind of carb creep myself.

I admit that I did have to look up the mission carb balance wraps.. so I am not sure exactly which one you would have chosen, and maybe it is o.k.?.. it does claim to be low carb.. so I suppose it is lower carb that a regular wrap.. and all of the ones that are carb balance have wheat..

https://www.missionfoods.com/products/better-for-you/low-carb-tortillas/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=pmax&utm_campaign=carbwatch&utm_id=0508&utm_term=Q1&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw1emzBhB8EiwAHwZZxSN6ox6SNOUAVlGkPB16UrP-i3JA4yM-g9UVvY2txUKnLcPBFOaxqRoCVJ4QAvD_BwE

They seem to have a variety of options, and yeah, I am not sure if they are good merely because they are lower in carbs.. maybe they are relatively better based on being lower in carbs, and I am not going to claim to completely avoid those kinds of products that have carbs, since I suppose it might be still be o.k. if they are small amounts of carbs (wheat) and also perhaps depending on which kind you are eating since they have a variety of kinds.. .but they are probably still balancing with wheat and maybe there could be some products that are like bread substitutes but not with wheat.. .

Nice to see people talking about good foods again. After yesterday’s splurging on some cheese balls (I know, I know), I went to the store and got myself all the mixings for a good pork stew. Looking forward to getting after that tomorrow and probably a couple days after. Something about meat and push-ups just makes me happy.

Looking forward to getting after that tomorrow and probably a couple days after. Something about meat and push-ups just makes me happy.

Just put a dozen chicken thighs and three jars of tomato sauce along with.

Kale
bell pepper 🫑
onion 🧅
chickpeas
fresh tomatoes.

All in a large pot then in the oven to slow cook at 225f for 12 hours.

The key is leave the skin on the thighs when you cook overnite.

Then pull all the chicken out tomorrow morning.

De bone it and remove whats left of the skin.

most of the fat rends when it cooks at 225 for 12 hours.

The sauce becomes really good with the veg and chicken and chicken fat flavor.

you need either drumsticks or thighs to do this.

This is a lot of food. A three gallon pot is filled to the top.

Cost is
6 chicken
1 bell pepper
1 fresh tomatoes
4 kale
1 onion
6 tomato sauce
19 dollars plus gas to cook it.

10 servings. The chicken runs out sauce is still left.

I will use the sauce with eggs and egg whites maybe 3 bucks for the eggs. some more veg and 3 bucks.

so 25 dollars and 10 + 4 meals

It tastes really good. Carbs are very low high fiber good fats proteins .

Next set of meals will be a turkey which is quite an adventure for two people. I will discuss this in a week or so.

At og I am on a only goat cheese kick . Been doing only goat cheese for last three months.

[Timelord2067]

I was just scrolling back through the last couple of pages and some of you seem to be having a conversation about me.

I've gone back a couple of pages but can't seem to find the start of it.

I'm doing twenty pushups in a session and struggling to increase by ten this week twice a day (i.e. 40 - 60 pushups per day). If I can get to doing thirty pushups in a session I'll be happy given at the start of the month I hadnt done any for years)

Would those involved in the conversation like to summarise what the issue is, please?

Back on the 16th I said "I was just perusing one of the links in your sig, Timelord2067, and saw that teamsherry and Troytech are self admitted to be the same user and yet they both show up on our pushup table."  Somehow you got confused as being one of the alts.

how many pushup will you do the day BTC hits 100k

I have not thought about it but it will be fun trying to go all out that day and see how many push-ups I could do, but at minimum I will try to hit 200 at the time.

I exercise right after breakfast as it is supposed to burn calories better.

I tend to feel that I can exercise better before I eat rather than after eating, but maybe it depends upon how much I eat and also what kind of food, but as a general principle having less food in the belly seems to help me to feel better during my exercises - as long as I am not raving of hunger.

I do the same, I have tried exercising after eating and I feel lethargic and with no motivation to go through my exercise routine, but doing so before getting lunch or dinner makes me look forward to my next meal and it motivates me to finish the routine as quickly as possible so I can enjoy it.

I have not thought about it but it will be fun trying to go all out that day and see how many push-ups I could do, but at minimum I will try to hit 200 at the time.

My thoughts are when the BTC prices starts getting closer to $100k, if I have time, I will start to push towards doing more pushups in the day.. maybe even try to shoot for doing pushups every hour, yet I am not sure if I would be able to do 500 in a day, so I will probably spend several days trying to get up to that quantity.. that is if I still feel that it is worth the effort.  Surely it would be interesting to try to set a new daily pushup number, and I tentatively believe that 500 is within reach for me, even though I have my doubts in regards to being able to do 500 pushups in a day without building up to it.. so far my maximum number of pushups in any day is 300 (on May 7th).. so I consider there to be a quite a BIG difference between doing 300 pushups in a day and 500 pushups in a day.  I consider it not realistic for me to even shoot for trying (or intending to try) to do more than 500 in a day, so if I am able to get from 300 pushups in a day to 500 pushups in a day, that may well be enough for me to then lower my regular amounts back down to right around 150-ish per day.. which is right around my current rate.

I can surely relate to that.  For me, it is a matter of having an empty stomach, but not being overly hungry, so usually during those times, I am able to exercise better, and surely after the exercise, appetite increases, so there can be quite a bit of hunger that comes after having had done the exercise  - well depending on how involved the exercise is.. if the exercise is over a long period of time, then I would not necessarily want to have an empty stomach, but something like a set or two of pushups, then having an empty stomach seems preferable.

how many pushup will you do the day BTC hits 100k

I have not thought about it but it will be fun trying to go all out that day and see how many push-ups I could do, but at minimum I will try to hit 200 at the time.

My thoughts are when the BTC prices starts getting closer to $100k, if I have time, I will start to push towards doing more pushups in the day.. maybe even try to shoot for doing pushups every hour, yet I am not sure if I would be able to do 500 in a day, so I will probably spend several days trying to get up to that quantity.. that is if I still feel that it is worth the effort.  Surely it would be interesting to try to set a new daily pushup number, and I tentatively believe that 500 is within reach for me, even though I have my doubts in regards to being able to do 500 pushups in a day without building up to it.. so far my maximum number of pushups in any day is 300 (on May 7th).. so I consider there to be a quite a BIG difference between doing 300 pushups in a day and 500 pushups in a day.  I consider it not realistic for me to even shoot for trying (or intending to try) to do more than 500 in a day, so if I am able to get from 300 pushups in a day to 500 pushups in a day, that may well be enough for me to then lower my regular amounts back down to right around 150-ish per day.. which is right around my current rate.

If you have succeeded in doing 300 pushups then pushing for 500 pushups in a day is quite achievable, in a more convenient way you can try the approach of progressing in terms of 100: 300,400 then 500 or 50: 350,400,450 and then 500. Kicking off from 300 which is the maximum you have done to making your first all time high of 500 could course severe pains  and you might be unable to cope with the pushups for the next few days.

Somehow you got confused as being one of the alts.

Given there's well over a hundred pages in this thread please be mindful that if someone doesn't respond it's quite likely they haven't seen your post, not for some sinister alterior motive.

While I'm waiting for game two of the NRL State of Origin series to kick off I'm twenty pushups into an intended fifty for today.

I'll post my new tally in the morning - including hopefully another twenty in the morning.

I exercise right after breakfast as it is supposed to burn calories better.

I tend to feel that I can exercise better before I eat rather than after eating, but maybe it depends upon how much I eat and also what kind of food, but as a general principle having less food in the belly seems to help me to feel better during my exercises - as long as I am not raving of hunger.

I do the same, I have tried exercising after eating and I feel lethargic and with no motivation to go through my exercise routine, but doing so before getting lunch or dinner makes me look forward to my next meal and it motivates me to finish the routine as quickly as possible so I can enjoy it.

I can surely relate to that.  For me, it is a matter of having an empty stomach, but not being overly hungry, so usually during those times, I am able to exercise better, and surely after the exercise, appetite increases, so there can be quite a bit of hunger that comes after having had done the exercise  - well depending on how involved the exercise is.. if the exercise is over a long period of time, then I would not necessarily want to have an empty stomach, but something like a set or two of pushups, then having an empty stomach seems preferable.

This is based on facts as that has usually been my experience once the exercise happened to extend in time frame hunger is likely to kick start on me I thought it's basically on me only because of how I started from the initial push up has not been the best for me as I later begin to enjoy the push up I was like that could be the part of experience , it's of more clear that the time frame can also facilitate hunger if one did the exercise in an empty stomach, for long time.

But there is one major aspects of this push up the body become more Free and quickly gather momentum to push when the stomach is empty based on my experience because when my body is less weight I pushes faster than when I have tasted any food.

Three days report Monday to Wednesday 225 to be added in previous figure in the table.

It does clearly depend on the choice of food whether you feel lethargic or not. It is about blood sugar levels and if you eat a high protein + moderate fat meal with relatively low carbs or foods with a low glycemic index, you won't feel lethargic. Of course quantity could still be an issue if you eat 1 kilogram of steak and 1 kilogram and 1 kilogram of broccoli in one move. I guess you would still feel lethargic then!

What I can suggest is Skyr, which is an Icelandic yogurt. It is amazingly high in protein and it makes you feel saturated literally for a third of the day at only around 300 kcal for 500 grams. It is an amazing food with great nutritional values and a weapon if your goal is to lose fat and not go through hardcore struggles because you feel hungry all the time. You can pick one with certain tastes like strawberry, but you could also take the natural one if you like or add some taste drops or pulver.

But otherwise I can relate, too. If you eat a lasagna and aim for a heavy workout right afterwards, that is probably not the best idea. Though if you are in shape and can afford the calories and are planning a heavy workout, having lasagna several hours before that can indeed be a good idea.

The empty stomach workout as JJG mentioned can have positive effects, but it does definitely depend on the kind of workout you are aiming for. Endurance (aerobic/anaerobic), strength, hybrid. All of these activity variations demand (in a best case scenario) some adjustments to the choice of nutrition.

I am not opposed to any of those suggested ways to get from 300 to 500, yet I am thinking that I will probably have a decent amount of time to start to build up to it.. once I get that intention of building up to it.. so one thing is getting back up to my personal max of 300 from my current 150-ish per day and then another thing is exceeding the 300 per day.., so yeah, it seems that we have a little time before we start to get close towards getting to $100k, so maybe there will be a few guys trying to push up their pushups per day numbers when we start to get close to $100k as a form of celebration - or physical recognition of the happening.

[Timelord2067]

As mentioned yesterday, I completed fifty pushups in the early evening and this morning, I've done another two sets of ten pushups

Somewhat of a milestone for me today.  It appears that I have hit the 15,000 push-ups mark.  That number feels both large and small for the effort I have put into this.  I'm pretty sure this is probably the most push-ups I've done in a year and I look forward to doubling it before the year is over with or without Bitcoin's price hitting our goal.  I did really like the combination of running stairs and doing push-ups, but I haven't been doing that as much as I'd like.

My foot is healing well.

I will add to the  pushups, flights of stairs, lite bike work and resistance bands

goal is 60 flights of stairs total of 30 minutes time.
50 modded pushups
10 reverse flights of stairs

bike spinning 10 minutes and resistance bands 6 minutes of the ten minutes biking.

all told about 45 minutes of exercise a day.

I am off to do the bike 🚲 work now.
