    When I was 28 I could do 100 push ups straight. I was a body builder and amatuer boxer. I'm 42 now. I am going through treatment for cancer . Today I did 22 push ups straight. I will do a challenge, every day increase until I get to 50 straight...then try to keep that going for good... thanks for the motivation

    Here's a tip: When you're about to reach your max, spread your fingers wide, you gain a bit more strength while pushing up.
    Also, when you push-up make sure to use your lats. You can accomplish this by slightly moving your hands as if twisting a door knob while flexing your chest. You can use this in your bench presses as well and you will notice a lot more strength and power when you push weight from your lats :)

    Taking inspiration from the 300 push-up challenge. I completed a 30 day challenge that took me 70 days to complete. It involved 50 pull-ups, 50 dips and 100 push-ups. I am doing a 30 day 8 mile challenge now on the elliptical at intervaling resistances. These challenges are baselines to complete at the gym for me.
    I am really seeing so much improvement now in my fitness and i continue to add more to my sessions. I have always been conscious of adding too much, that i would turn away from exercise.

    I dd something similar once, but it was 100 pushups resting 30 sec between rolls, doing 30-25-20-15-10 every day. It's a strategy to keep focus, every rep is lower and easier (but actually not, you're much tired every rep).. really, it works. The days you feel better or feel you have more energy, do max pushups in the last roll.

  • @rishabhyadavJP
    @rishabhyadavJP Před rokem +130

    Hey Browney,
    I have done the 100 pushups a day challenge in the past and noticed significant improvement in my reps. At one point, my first rep for the first set was 50. I noticed Lennard is also having a similar problem in the video where he has a raised shoulder on one side. During the set at 13:48 where he is pushing his maximum, his right hand is noticeably running outwards than the other. This is dangerous in the long run as it can cause scapular winging. Shouldn't proper form be preferred over repetition for better joint health?
    Cheers and a happy new year.

      It would be super cool to see them switch strategies after the first 30 days and then compare again at 60 days. Want to see whether it's more effective to build muscle size first then go for high rep volume or the reverse.
      Either way very interesting application and proof of the truth of strength training science: 5-6 sets, relatively low reps, rest between days (so 3-4x per week) seems to be optimal for building muscle and strength.

    Amazing transformation! As a beginner, my two main mistakes were lack of sleep and not eating enough. I was disappointed because my weight stagnated. Then I got my first diet plan (I think it was from Next Level Diet). I realized that my previous food intake was way below my needs, although I thought I'm good. At the beginning it was hard to eat so many kcal in a day, but I got used to it. I started noticing real gains and it felt amazing. I wish I'd understood the importance of diet earlier.

      I got the belly right now and can do 50-60 straight.
      I find capabilities and shape very weird. I know guys if I didn't know better I'd bet my life savings they could smoke me on pushups and situps and often it's not the case. Or it's weirdly they can on one but not the other. I've seen abs guys I can wreck on situps while my belly rolls be cranking. Idk. It's fucking weird imo.
      Even with abs I could never run great though. But pusbups and situps it's been very rare times I got out of shape and capability. And my weakest and fattest was maybe around 35 pushups and 30 situps. I really don't get how either of these guys bodies didn't allow more than 35 pushups.

    This video reminded me of when I was 14 my uncle told me to do 100 push ups a day. I eventually got there, but realized a typical push up with my arms slightly wider than shoulder width and elbows going outwards put a lot of stress and strain on my shoulders that I was uncomfortable with.
    Changing my hands to be closer to shoulder with and elbows rubbing against my sides significantly improved the number of push ups I could do, speed, and overall felt significantly better on my shoulders.
    I would love to see this video done again with both forms to see if there is any difference.

      ex-military here, and yes. During a PT test we would regularly start either with hands perpendicular and out or tucked in close, and then when about to reach muscle failure we would slide our hands to the opposite position and continue. Out and wide meant the chest would engage and help (also reducing the rnage of motion) while in and close focused it on the triceps. By changing it up we could increase our max.

    When I fist started working out I started by trying to do as many push ups within 2 minutes. 1st try I did 20 push ups and collapsed, took 4 days to not feel sore then did 23, 2 days rest then 28, 1 day rest, 32 and then did them every day to failure. after just over 2 weeks total I was up to 58. I then started to do really strict push ups and shot back down to 38 in 2 min and after another 2 weeks got back up to 55 strict push ups in 2 min. Its only 2 min a day so it didn't seem like a chore to do and I had a huge amount of growth in my arms and core in that month. I then added dumbbell curls and dumbbell squats. I started eating only 1400 cal of clean food a day instead of 3000-4000 of junk food a day and over 6 months I lost 45 pounds and gained a lot of muscle mass. I was 195-198 for 6 years stuck being really skinny fat. It was so bad to the point I looked pregnant. Watching CZcams videos like yours helped keep me motivated so thank you. I am now 1 year later at 155-160 and I look pretty good for an average guy. I'm not ripped by any means but you can tell I have put some work on my arms and legs. If I had to guess in order to look really lean and nice I would have to be 140 pounds. I plan to get to 145 since I have only ever been extremely skinny or really fat. I hope seeing myself lean for the first time will motivate me to keep doing this "lifestyle" for the next 20 years. for context I'm a 23 year old male and I do now go to a gym with a full workout routine. To anyone seeing this you can achieve your goals as long as you don't give up on them. It's not a race, it's a slow walk to your goal.

  • @joshuacarrington3186
    @joshuacarrington3186 Před rokem +126

    I think the missing variable here is that by incorporating rest, you’re able to do more work. Lennard would have seem way more impressive progress if he progressed his workload due to his increased recovery. I think Luc saw more reps in his end test because he ultimately did more volume over the 30 days. Incorporating rest schedules is helpful because we’re able to recover better and continually increase volume and/or intensity!

    • @felixbertoni
      @felixbertoni Před rokem +5

      It would indeed be super interesting to also have a versions with increased volume and increased intensity over time, so we could compare all workouts ^^
      But their test still makes a lot of sense, as often ppl workout not for the sole pleasure of sport, but also to improve their health and appearance, and in that case, one may want to try achieving the most progression while doing the "fewer" workout possible.
      So I think the message of this video is more on "don't push too far, because even while resting, you achieve great progress" than "rest or not to have best progression"

  • @RoguePhysicist
    @RoguePhysicist Před 8 měsíci

    In the military, especially in boot camp, you do pushups every day. In addition to regular PT sessions, you're getting "smoked" many times throughout the day. In BUD/S training, for example, you do hundreds of pushups, situps, flutter kicks, etc., and run many miles every day. They gave a test at the beginning to see how many pushups and situps you could do for 2 minutes. I did 84 in 2 minutes. Later, when I became a civilian, I kept working out, and tested myself again. I did 120 pushups in 2 minutes. Whenever I went to the gym for chest/shoulder workouts, I'd warm up with 2 sets of 50 before getting on the bench press. I'd occasionally do plyometric pushups between two benches: "jump" up to the two benches and push off them, then fall back to the floor. Doing 10 or more of those was very difficult. I wanted to be able to start from a standing position, fall forward onto my hands, and "jump" myself back into the standing position. I was never able to complete that. I also found that doing pushups slowly is a lot harder than doing them fast. If I did them slowly, I could never do as many to failure as I could if I did them fast. Another technique is to take pauses. If you do, say, 100 pushups in a set, do 20, pause for a few seconds, do 20 more, pause again, etc, until you complete the 100. But most people aren't training for war or competition. So I wouldn't recommend being that intense. Now I suffer from 2 rotator cuff injuries and arthritis in my wrist. And pushups are quite painful.

    Personally, rather than trying to do the same challange. The biggest issue I run into is consistency. So for me, doing it every single day is important or else I will fail to be consistent. As such I'm just doing as many pushups, crunches, and tricep dips as I possibly can, with a leeway for a little bit. Finishing it off and just doing whatever for the rest of the day. No need to force myself to do much more. Taking it at my own pace is the best for me anyways. Even if its just 2 sets of 10 pushups, 2-3 sets of 12 crunches and 2 sets of 7 tricep dips. Might start to do it twice a day, after waking up and sleep. But yeah. It helps to give me something to do whilst my right foot is broken.

    If your target is 200 push-ups, first have a set rule: While trying to keep your body straight, chest on the ground to arm lock out is one rep works for me since these are the physical limits unless you use grips or platforms. Without this rule, you're going to have shortened reps that lower in quality as the session goes one. Next is have a target time to finish (say 20 minutes with a target goal of 10 minutes). After this is how you want to approach it. A pace of 1 push-up per 6 seconds gets the job. You can also try more fun tabata styles of 10 push-ups every minute or 5 push-ups every 30 seconds. For either you do the push-ups fast then rest till next time portion. Power reps might be more fun where each push is as fast and powerful as possible (think punch power instead of slow pushing).
    If you're doing the every other day approach, consider doing 200 weighted rows on the off days since this is an opposite movement/muscle groups to the push-ups. A good weight to consider is first weigh your hands on the scale in a push-up position (should be about 65% your full body weight) and use that for the row weight. Much like the push-ups, consider arm lock out to bar/weight touching chest.

      This is why i dont really like the idea of counting reps for things like push ups. I prefer to just go close to failure and count the number of sets, if im caring about how many i do then i will sacrifice form just to hit the target which does not help me.
      btw try not to lock out your elbows at the top, its bad for your joints over time and reduces the time under tension of your muscles.

      @@callanc3925 I think this is the main reason they got practically no gains in 30 days, their form was terrible for most of the reps. Quarter reps aren't gonna do much to gain strength and hypertrophy. I've been doing calisthenics for years and maintaining proper form/range of motion and doing progressive overload was how I made consistent progress, even in timeframes as short as 30 days.

    As a teenager I had a trainer who made us do 100 fast pushups, straight, then 100 situps, 100 squats, then 90 of each, 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, and finally another 20.
    This was the warmup for our 2-hour kungfu class. I don’t know any kungfu, but I’m still in pretty good shape 25 years later with little to no exercise these days.

    Doing proper push ups with weights on my back showed progress very fast for me, 100 ever 2 days with extra 10KGs made much more visual progress than 700 every 2 days without weights.

      i learned the hard way to never ignore pain when lifting. discomfort, fatigue and painful pump, is one thing, but sharp sudden stabbing pain, should always mean stop or deload for a while. at this point u probably already injured something sligtly and pushing weights aint gonna help :) shoulders was a weak point, tricep tendonitis another. but i know now less is more when i train, so if i do heavy bench for a while i do not push tons of tricep or shoulder volume.

      Yeah, injury slows down and progress. Slow, steady, and safe. I decided I wanted to get in shape with 10 pound dumbells. Did 100 the first day, 100 the second and that was too much. Minor injury, but I started back again smaller. 30 every day, increasing by another 30 when I felt comfortable. Now up to 180 every day, with no real soreness. My arms are slowly becoming defined, but nothing special yet. I think 350 a day will be my goal for the next month.

    The top tier understanding of the subject is that the optimal amount of workout changes from day to day and person to person, and if you overdo it you get a lot less out of it.
    If you're planning on working out the same muscle groups every day, you have to do a lot less than if you were to work them every second or third day, or you'll do worse.

I can walk 12-18 km every day, and my best record is 47 km in a day. Yes, and I did an 8-13 km walk the next day as well. After a few weeks, my best set was 15-18. I can never do more than 18 in a set. I used to do a total of 50 in a day, then I stopped. It inspired me again. I used to hear from my senior coworker who could do 200 in a day a decade ago, and 25-30 in a set. I always thought it was nearly impossible to do, but after watching this video, it seems like 200 is not an impossible challenge. I'll start again, and it will be my goal to achieve.

    Some observations I wish some time was spent on… Luc had better form than Lennard both starting out and at the end. Lennard still got mass gains, but his form barely improved, especially as he neared failure.
    Luc actually got the better strength gains, and he had the most most rapid speed growth. He went from taking 50% longer(31 minutes vs 21 minutes) than Lennard to basically having the same time (around 15 minutes each).
    Also, we don’t know if Luc got any strength gains. What we saw was endurance gains… which is still great. I think it would have been cool to check their 1RM as a strength metric, since push-ups for 30 days has them lifting the same amount…

    I did something comparable once, except how I did it was "consistently increasing reps".
    My max reps was 17 at the start, and I started working out with 5 sets of 10, once it became easier I made it 5 sets of 12, then I turned it to 4 sets of 15, and so on.
    I tried doing it every day, but because I was doing it nearly every day, whenever I missed a day I would consider it 'my rest day' and continue afterwards. At the end of the month I did 6 sets of 20, and while I didn't count my max pushups it would've been hovering around 30.
    Somewhere along the line I stopped doing it, but I was thinking about restarting something similar and then there suddenly was this video.
    Perhaps I should try the 200 one, as more pushups=more better apparantly (as long as I don't force an injury)

    I think Luc had more newbie gains, than Lennard. The Lennard version is much more sustainable. Another 30 day-ish challenge I did which was pretty nice too was alternating between rep-days and form-days. Going high reps the one day, doing slow full range of motion reps on the other day.

    I think it would've been cool if you guys tested their strength on another rather unfamiliar exercise (such as dips) to remove try and remove the neurological & resistance factors a lot more intensely. Or perhaps a 1RM bench press. But still, interesting to see such similar results in terms of resistance - I definitely expected Luq to increase his rep count a lot more significantly, but not for Leonard to boost his overall resistance so thoroughly.

    For 3 months I did 500 push/sit-ups and 120 pullups a day excluding weekends, I'd do the push/sit-ups in sets of 50 every hour on the hour for 10 hours and usually the pullups were sets of 10 or whatever I needed to finish out my goal for the day at the same 1 hour intervals. My whole body was numb in a weird way and I didn't feel pain/tiredness just nothingness in a very relaxing way, near the end of the day I could feel my muscle strands and fibers individually moving throughout my body with my chest being the most noticeable while working out and then back to nothingness once I stopped. Pretty cool experience but something someone has to build up to because you'll will hurt yourself by just trying to do it there's absolutely no question about that.

    Try time under tension (TUT) splitting your push-ups in time intervals. e.g drop & hold for 5 seconds, come up wait 5 seconds, and repeat for 1 minute. Those 6 push-ups will do more for you than 30 push-ups a minute. You will gain more strength & muscle mass. Start off with 3 push-ups per minute. Do 9 push-ups in 3 minutes with 10 second intervals. Challenge yourself to do 3 mins straight & have an ultimate goal of 15 push-ups in 5 mins. If you can reach that, then you're a push-up king. This is one of the ways David Goggins does it. He inspired me to try TUT push-ups, so i formulated my own and now my performance is way better & I am way leaner

Then I realized I was doing them wrong i.e. bad positioning and too fast (like the blonde guy - too fast). I slowed it down and held position while up for 2 seconds. I also reduced them to 10-12 per set and about 3-4 sets a day, sometimes 6 sets throughout the day if it's got me in a good mood. All this 3-4 times a week. My chest arms and shoulders became more pronounced.
