50 pushups/day the easy way....

[cgdat136]

okok....lemme let some of you in on a little idea to increase your daily pushup total. its called descending reps....

you dont have to do 'X' amount of pushups all in one set, you can break them up into multiple sets.

for example....lets say the most you can do is 10 pushups:

1st set 10 pushups
(rest)
2nd set 9 pushups
(rest)
3rd set 8 pushups
(rest)
4th set 7 pushups
(rest)
5th set 6 pushups
(rest)

and so on and so forth....i think you all get the picture. how long your rest periods are, well....thats up to you. but if you follow this approach you can complete 55 pushups a day

good luck,
chris

But what happens when you have to do 90 push-ups after a hard day at work???

Re: 50 pushups/day the easy way....

lol.......well, i just did 9 sets of 10 pushups each...it was tough!! when i got to 60 i rested a little bit more until the next set....and my chest (muscles, not heart) almost felt like it was tightening....lol!! but i was ok, and i pushed on to completion. this morning i did 50 more and now....after a caloric and eat everything thanksgiving day (is wasn't a good day interms of this WOL), i am gonna do as many more as i am able...but in sets of course. its 9:44pm, so i dont have too much time cause i generally turn in kinda early. and as far as getting on a scale, not until sunday morning!! and between now and then i have to be disciplined and pray a lot

Re: 50 pushups/day the easy way....

tonight i have already started my sets.......however its already 10pm, so this is a late start. i am gonna do decending reps today starting from 12 down...so if i am able to complete this, that will give me an additional 73 pushups to add to my total. how many people are entered in the november pushup challenge anyway, does anyone know?
