sure if you are a lil twiglet you will notice some difference. but make sure that you choose something you can do routinely (daily, every other day) because thats the only way you'll ever notice any difference. best to have some sort of pulling as well like pullups or rows. gl and don't ask such a homosexual question next time
did this when i was 13 and it got me noticeable shoulder and chest gains but nothing will replace lifting bro, its good for starters to get into the habit of exercising but if ur serious abt this you should lift
It's calisthenics, OP. It will give you endurance and cardiovascular improvement. If you wanna get huge then forget about it and pay a gym's membership.
depends on your current state:
2 years ago i worked myself up from being able to do 10 pushups max in a row to doing 40+ over the course of 6 months, the change for me was very visible (i also lost ~20 pounds so go figure)
i did 5 sets of pushups every set to faliure, 3 times a week (and the same with chin ups, and basically that was my whole training and some jogging, for beginners its pretty good i think
pullups pushups and jogging is a great starting point and honestly all that most people are ever going to need. if you master those 3 in any shape or form you probably wouldn't need to worry about anything else unless you really care about looks or you have a career in lifting super heavy shit all the time.
"100 push ups a day" is rather ambiguous. Doing 5 pushups 20 times a day will do frick nothing but if you can rep out 100 in one go you're gonna be in very good shape. Eventually it's more endurance than strength.
False. That’s called greasing the groove or microdosing exercise. If you do 5x20 throughout the day you will get better at push ups and you will get stronger.
Do two as many reps as possible sets 1 day.
The next day do 5-10x70% of that count.
Every 4-5 days or so do 2 AMRAP sets to retest the limit and go forward accordingly.
greasing the grove is done with like 5-10 x 50-70% of amrap and in even a broader range. Even so greasing the groove is for neurological adaptations. It doesn't actually give mass initially after you're done with the greasing the groove phase you'll probably have better recruitment in a movement temporarily which will lead to more gains until you reverse the adaptation through pushing to failure routinely
At a certain point, you will be training for muscular endurance and not strength. Nor is going to be as rapid and effective as weight training. However, if this is all you got then:
For strength, after about 3x8-3x10 range you aren't gaining much if anything. At that point switch to a hard variation such diamonds, declines, etc.
For hyptertrophy try to shoot for 5 sets, aiming first to get to 5x25. At that point take every set to where you cannot complete it with good form, drop to your knees and keep going. Far from ideal, but use what you have if it's all you have.
Again, not do not expect spectacular results after some noob gains. But it can be optimized, plus pushups are fun.
I wouldn't do it unless my rotator cuff was really healthy. You can lift heavyish with a bad rotator cuff but you can't do high rep stuff. I doubt many people who do that many do them anything resembling ideal form and with a slowed eccentric.
If you're doing as many reps as possible with a calisthenics movement on consecutive days I'd keep it down to 2 sets regardless of how many you actually can do.
I've been doing 100 (20×5) and thought it was pussy shit. I've never gone to the gym except in high school gym class. It was hard for the first few days and i took a day break every 3rd or 4th day at the start mostly out of laziness, now i will aim for 150 or 200.
>Royal Marines PJFT Circuit >20 x burpees >30 x sit ups >20 x press ups >1 minute plank
bro wtf this will give me even less gains than 100 push ups/day
i am dyel but the best chest workout i do is 100 pushups a day. its easy, just 5 sets of 20, takes about 20 minutes. you could probably do it twice a day if you wanted, morning and afternoon
>be a dyel >do 60 pushups in 20-20-20 series 90 sec breaks >next day feel like your arms are dying
i like this feel bros
i need to get money and sign up to the gym
it's just doms because you're increasing your lactic acid threshold. It is unfortunately not a good indicator of hypertrophy or anything really. People will do high rep sets to get a visible pump and the soreness but it's not always going to result in hypertrophy.
it'd be a heck of an improvement over 90% of the USA's current routine [nothing]. I think if you just do the OnePUnch routine and ate a decent diet you'd end up looking fine, not ripped or anything but respectably NOT fat.
Switch the sit ups with a better an exercise or Ab circuit that takes the same amount of time, use some free weights for the squat and yeah this would get you somewhere for sure. I’d add 100 push-ups tho.
i can do 75 if i take breaks my triceps feel harder then they used too be
It'll be subtle but if it's all you can do then do it
What would be better? Lifting? Or doing 200 push ups a day?
You're not going to do 200 pushups a day, man.
Let's be honest here.
ignore the demotivator shillz bra 200 is totally possible and not even hard to do
>not even hard to do
>OP is asking about a 100
can you even do 50 ?
300 is more than 200

I've been doing 3x20 and 1x23 throughout the day, should I do the same amount in less time as possible?
25 is the most I can do in one go.
anyone?
Do two as many reps as possible sets 1 day.
The next day do 5-10x70% of that count.
Every 4-5 days or so do 2 AMRAP sets to retest the limit and go forward accordingly.
Thanks
>wasting your time
homie it takes like 5 minutes to complete it.
5 minutes you could have been at the gym lifting something

>100 push ups a day
4 x 25
>not 2 x 50
For me, it's 0 x infinity

please, stop torturing yourself and wasting your time with calisthenic bullshit and move proper weights around.
push ups are amazing and only accessory you need to a free weight exercise
youre just lazy. probably a asiatic/brown that does 3 rep sets regularly
No. Unless weighted.
I've been doing 100 (20×5) and thought it was pussy shit. I've never gone to the gym except in high school gym class. It was hard for the first few days and i took a day break every 3rd or 4th day at the start mostly out of laziness, now i will aim for 150 or 200.
Do the Royal Marines PJFT Circuit everyday instead Anon
It's a quick 15 minute session to start your day.
Make sure you look up proper form.
>Royal Marines PJFT Circuit
will check that.
>Royal Marines PJFT Circuit
I'm a dyel and even I can do that besides the pullups lmao wtf
>Royal Marines PJFT Circuit
>20 x burpees

I can do 100 pushups in 5 minutes and all it does is give me a pump. If it's all I do I will get noticeably weaker and smaller as the weeks go by.
100 pushups, situps, squats, and a 6 km run
EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
unironically would this work
it'd be a heck of an improvement over 90% of the USA's current routine [nothing]. I think if you just do the OnePUnch routine and ate a decent diet you'd end up looking fine, not ripped or anything but respectably NOT fat.
>it'd be a heck of an improvement over 90% of the USA's current routine [nothing]
the majority of zoomers lift
I've seen them "lift" and no they donwmrwn't.
Switch the sit ups with a better an exercise or Ab circuit that takes the same amount of time, use some free weights for the squat and yeah this would get you somewhere for sure. I’d add 100 push-ups tho.
If you're not doing 1000 push ups per hour, you're a fricking failure.
My left elbow pops when I do pushups, can I wear a strap or help it in anyway bros?
20-50 pull-ups a day is better. Or 50-100 body weight rows.
