I’m back, and since turning 30 I’ve done 50,000+ push ups! My best day so far I did 600! I’ve been keeping track of everything in excel.
A few notes since last time: A lot of people pointed out that making room for rest & recovery is important. It is! So I’ve slightly modified my schedule so I can take weekends off.
I started doing 400 push-ups a day M-F, each week I add 10 to the daily total. This week I’ll be doing 490 each day. Once I get to 550 I might switch to every other day.
Also, important to note that this is just one element of my fitness routine. Currently, I’m working my way back through Body Beast, cardio 3x a week + rock climbing at least weekly. As many people pointed out last time, you shouldn’t just focus on one muscle group.
Overall though, I’d say it’s been going pretty well! I can consistently do sets of 40-50 throughout the day but I’d like to keep pushing my endurance to consistently hit sets of 60. I’ve banked nearly 3000 pushups (or just under 11 days) so I’m on track to hit 100k this year and know I can take breaks as necessary, it’s important to listen to your body!!
See y’all at 75k!
