Stop Doing 100 Pushups a Day - I’m Begging You!!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

There are lots of 100 Pushups a Day Workouts available, but should you be doing them. That is the question that gets answered in today’s video. The attraction of a simple to follow, easy to remember exercise plan that has the ability to deliver bigger chest and arm gains is definitely something that cannot be denied. That said, is it the best use of your time?

To start, it’s important to realize just why 100 pushups a day is something that has been done and tried by many. Some perform this routine for 30 days, 60 days, 90 days or even an entire year. If there were no results to be had from doing it, it is hard to imagine that people would continue to spend their time doing it. But what if there were something better.
Here I’m going to show you something better than 100 pushups a day.
The first issue with making the number simply one hundred is that it will only match the ability levels of about 3 percent of those watching. In order for an exercise to be progressive, it should have the capacity to challenge the person that is doing it. Now, the benefits to this technique are almost wholly due to the dramatically increased volume of the pushup exercise that comes with doing them daily.
Over time, the sub maximal volume, done in much greater amounts, is enough to drive muscle adaptation and size gains in the chest, arms and shoulders. That said, not all increases in volume can do this. Many times, the excessive volume becomes simply junk volume. That is, an accumulation of reps that are so below your capability levels that they serve to do nothing to progress the muscles that you are trying to build and more often only cause irritation, inflammation and aggravation of the joints involved in the exercise.
No exception here with pushups.
People who engage in pushup routines that require daily pushups for more than 3 weeks will often times see a decrease in their muscle output and strength as well as development of poor posture from rounded shoulders. These are caused by the muscle imbalances that occur when focusing all of your efforts on chest development.
In my 22 Days to a Bigger Chest Routine, we not only propose plan involving pushups but important variations of the move that shift the focus more to your triceps or shoulders to offload some of the work being done by the chest. As always however, with the daily recommendation of doing face pulls you will be sure you have enough posterior chain training to counteract any postural issues that could come from an abundance of push ups.
Here, what is suggested is to not only perform your pushups in sets rather than as a firm fixed number of 100 but to shift that fixed number of reps to another exercise - the Superman Pressout - to avoid any of the imbalances that could come. So, with the fixed number of sets rather than pushups we are able to accommodate to a person’s ability level much better.
For example, someone that can do 60-75 reps of pushups in a given set is going to be far less challenged by a 100 pushups a day routine than someone who can only do 5-10 in a set. Here, we equalize the stress by having each person do 5 sets, 5 reps short of failure. It’s important to keep these sets short of all out muscle failure. This will help with the recovery from these workouts as the consecutive days start to pile up.
The next most important element however is that immediately following each of these 5 sets you will perform 20 reps of the Superman Pressout exercise shown. This will work the often overlooked and important muscles of the rotator cuff and rhomboids, helping to prevent postural shoulder rounding that could come from overworking the pecs.
You can perform these sets all at the same time or break them up over the course of the day. Just be sure to include the set of 20 reps of Superman Pressouts immediately following each of the sets to ensure that you get your 100 reps of that exercise in throughout the day.
Try this out and let me know how you do in the comments.

A week and a half and I already can see small results.. Which is pushing me to get fully into this.. My brithday is in May.. I'll be 32.. By then, I plan on having the body I desire and probably will do it mostly with Push ups. I may join a gym when I can.. But 5 almost 6 months of doing this.. I should be fine.. At that point I'll join a Boxing gym to further my fitness appetite and keep up with it..

    @@27Ashishnayak To clarify I also kickbox competitively. Together with my obsession with pushups( I love them because you can make them hard, do a lot of them and they are very useful to build discipline) I developed tendonitis in my left shoulder likely from all the repetitive movement. I have been out for like 2.5 months already but I'm getting close to a return. I have gotten plenty of massages, electric current therapy and ultrasounds(both really helpful) and have also gotten 2 plasma injections (game changers). Shoulders were always my strongest upper body part so I really missed my favourite exercises( handstands, presses etc) during rehab. Instead every day is a combination of leg workouts and corrective movements for my shoulders and upper back. I only wish I started doing those sooner. I was so focused on getting stronger that I got some muscles way stronger than others that are supposed to be working together. This imbalance led to the tendon getting involved more than it should. Learn from my mistake and do your corrective exercises before you get hurt. Also don't push your newfound strength too much, rather let the rest of your body catch up. It's easier to reach your fitness goals if you are healthy

    Always love and appreciate your videos. You've helped me many times overcoming injuries. I'm 62 years old and pretty fit. But over the summer I was doing my usual P96 routine (pushups, pull ups, bands) - and was trying o increase my reps and weight and frequency. Things were going very well, until one day - they weren't. I suffered either an impingement or slight tear - whatever it was (I've been to the doctor and they say it was't rotator cuff) - it took me OUT! And since then (September of 2023) I have been struggling with getting both shoulders able to return to doing some kind of training. SO FRUSTRATING. All that to say, I was glad to hear you talk in this video about not getting injured as we push forward. This old (though fit) body of mine is reminding me of how I need to be more patient and careful with my routines. So I REALLY appreciated finding this cool little routine of yours (the 100 a day thing was beginning to sound good too me). Thanks AGAIN for a great one. MUCH Appreciated!

    I am aiming for 5 sets of 20 push ups a day, but with other exercises as well. For the last 6 years I did almost none, but 12 days ago I had to go over a 6 foot wall to help a hurt neighbor, adrenaline got me over fast, but getting back was when I realized that I had lost a lot of my strength. So I am now galvanized to become strong again, in 2 days my weights and protein powder will come and then I will be able to increase the amount of exercises I do. I retired at 63 and am 69 now.

It's really been a complement to my training routine over the years and a great way to start the day.

I continued that regimen for countless years with great results, now at age 72, I continue my workouts, but as i got older i finally eliminated that routine. I recently just wanted to see how many i could still do consecutively and got to fifty. But of course not keeping up with them it became more difficult. Now going 5 days to the gym, twice a week enjoy doing 3 sets of 20 pull-ups instead and love doing them. Regularity has always been the key to staying in shape and keeping my strength up!

Now that I have been hitting the gym again I can say that I am a stronger bencher than ever before. 1 year of almost daily push-ups made me stronger! Update: in the past 3,4 weeks I started having shoulder pains whenever benching or also doing push-ups. I stopped doing any hurting exercises for 2 weeks (including push-ups) . Now I slowly started ağrın. I'm not doing push ups everyday anymore though (currently twice a week but not as many as before). My shoulder is recovering

    This is exactly what i do to increase my potential in the amount of pushups i can accomplish. You do this the way he describes it and it will boost your overall outcome if you were to rest a day or two after some good amount of time training your arms. With that said, Ive been able to pump out 82 push ups in a minute by doing it this way and I was 35 yrs old at the time. I just didnt implement his superman variation he does in the end. A good tip also, is to do deep push ups (go down lower than normal) to compliment the regular push up, keep in mind this works the triceps more, but it ensures you are getting that full rep you should be looking for rather than doing half (noodle looking) push up motions. I would do 5 or even 6 sets throughout the day to accomplish this goal woth about two sets back to back and would hoose either the day or night to hit my reps put which helps with some rest needed to help you keep going. I would go to failure, but same time not completely burn out my arms since i wanted energy to do my next set i wanted to do as well. But ya, this method works for sure.

    I have a really mixed opinion about the whole hundred push-ups a day thing. I actually forced myself to do that with a weird routine for an entire year. Since I was going from zero workout in history I started off light at 30 and then I would do 30 everyday for the month and then the next month I would add on another 10. I started January of that year with 30 a day, and October 1st all the way through the new year I did 100 push-ups a day. It definitely absolutely trimmed out my shoulders and my arms and I got a ton of compliments for them, but I absolutely noticed that it really honestly just gave me good strength and definition but it did not bulk me up at all. I'm pretty sure that Annie and all of the calisthetic workouts you do can give you good actual muscular strength, but other than that all it really does is trim down your body fat and give you the definition that makes it all look good whereas when you actually get into the weight lifting that's where you actually get that strain and everything starts getting puffy and you start seeing the Mr Olympia type of people.

    This is good info. I am currently at the end of month 7 of a push up challenge I created. My daily push-ups equal the day of the month times the month of the year. March 5th equals 15. June tenth equals 60. October 20th equals 200. This has been helping me build up slowly and stay disciplined to do multiple sets every day. I’ve gone from barely being able to do 15 to now keeping my sets above 25 and doing 7 of those sets in a day. I do think I need to be careful about going to failure, which I often do on the last few days of the month. Maybe I should reduce my reps per set but link my sets with less time in between. I also like the idea of doing another exercise while I’m down there already. Thanks for your help and encouragement.

    Damn! So much good free advice from your videos and others! I wish I had KZread growing up, when I was the strongest and most fit ever. Life and injury have gotten in the way... AND I'm sure I'm suffering from depression that I cannot seem to get over. Tired to make a little body weight/light weight gym in my garage a few weeks ago now, but cannot get over the feeling of "what's the use?" I'm terribly out of shape and HATE the way I look/feel but cannot snap out of it. When I was in shape people were in awe whenever I took off my shirt but I never understood why because I was never going for that. I just worked out because I like it. I tried some super light workout the other day, but this cause my sciatica to act up and I was in physio/massage for a few days. That was there end of that. I used to work a lot (it was much fun!), so i know how to move properly to not hurt my self, but it would seem that my back is NO GOOD any more. Hopefully I can get that feeling back some day so I can utilize all this to both advice! Thank you

    I can attest to the shoulder issue / pain problem with trying to increase push-ups to 100 straight a day. I was following a program to get you to 100 push-ups straight through, but when I hit 40 straight, I started having shoulder pain on one side. Don't know if it was an imbalance or not, but I knew I couldn't continue doing what I was doing. My wife and I have a hill workout we do every Saturday morning, with push-ups at the top and bottom of the hill. We do sets of 15, and by the time we finish the workout, we have usually done 105 push-ups. So, this method Jeff is talking about definitely sounds like something worth trying. I'll be spacing out 5 sets of 20 push-ups throughout the day and see how this works for development as well as ease of completing them.

    The thing is, most of you (including the KZreadr) are doing too many exercises for each muscle. It doesn’t take that much to stimulate muscle growth, it’s all about consistency. For example, for a chest routine you only need about 4-6 sets as long as you’re keeping your form and the weight is optimal. You’ll go into a gym and see guys doing 20-30 sets of different chest exercises, that’s overkill and at a certain point you’re just plateauing.

    Nice addition to do the superman press-out (20x) after each set of push-ups. Adds to range of muscle groups being trained without making it too complex to stick to (the biggest attraction of the '100 push-ups per day' regime is its simplicity - and anything is better than doing nothing).

    Excellent advices I had ever heard from your channel! 1. breaks in sets of n sets of m reps. 2. sets of counter exercises 3. do the m reps shy of 5 from failure *key point! And I would add (for me at least): 4. rest day(s): 1-2 rest days will be more beneficial than every day (for the same exercise) since if I do non-stop every day routine like that, I will eventually hurt myself (I'm not an athlete and I need more time to regen - listen to your body!).

For instance if I'm working at home the entire day and will only have a fullworkout in the evening then would it be wise to add some reverse planks or some other good stabilization exercise throughout the day? Or even do cardio throughout the day like jumping rope 2 minutes at a time multiple times a day. Will this be a good way to build your work capacity?

    I guess it depends on your end goal. I read that for increasing size or bulking that Cardio doesn’t need to be done every day but a few times a week. Not sure if that’s 100% correct or not. But if you just want to be fit and stamina, cardio either in long sessions or going hard in multiple short sessions will work. I used to do a few hours of cardio 3 minutes at a time then rest for a full minute then back at it. I had unlimited gas tank and could see every muscle I had but I wasn’t bulked up. So seems to ring true. Now I’m trying to trim fat and bulk which is a tricky combination. But what I’ve read and watched I’m gathering for that I need more lifting weights 4-5 days a week, cardio only a few days a week, and high Protein but slight calorie deficit diet.

    I totally agree brother. People Evan push it to the extent of several hundred in one set and preserve the notion of “go hard or go home” when the potentiality for growth is not in the reps at all…… well anything beyond 15 to 20 I mean. I employ resistant bands for push-ups and the intense effect they have on 1 set is mimicking a bench press stimulation and the reps are super intense as your kind of pushing away from you not up from you and it can be like a full body experience. You can also do body weight presses in between witch enhances the ability to do press-ups due to the previous contrast of more resistance. Praise don’t seem to wanna use intuition anymore they just substitute it for why the consensus norm is saying.
