Member-only story
I’ve been doing 100 pushups a day since October and I have seen massive gains in my triceps and chest that I even got accused of taking steroids.
My routine in the beginning was to do 10 sets. In the beginning it was really hard to do all 10 sets without taking progressively longer breaks each time, that it would take me 20 minutes in total to get 100 pushups down. Eventually after a month, I was able to do 100 pushups in 10 minutes. Now, I’ve started the 100 pushups in 5 minutes challenge, and I’m not there yet but close since I’ve been able to do 90 pushups. It’s insane how I only started doing 20 knee pushups every other day in september since I was so weak. But now I can pump out close to a 100 pushups in 5 minutes every single day. All in about 3 months.
Do you need to take rest days?
I don't ever feel sore the next day. My arms may feel 10% tired in the morning, but not the same kind of pain when being sore. If you have a certain base level of strength, you shouldn't be extremely sore and your body should eventually adapt. I think the problem with some people doing this challenge is that they attempt it without having any foundation. Like if you can't even do 5 real pushups in a row, I suggest you working on getting 10…
