Keep in mind that only doing pushing exercises can lead to muscular imbalances.
You can create a more balanced body by doing pulling exercises like pullups or body rows in the same quantity as your pushups.
- azhenley 8y agoToo many people overlook this! I suggest alternating between push and pull days. And don’t forget the cardio.
- newnewpdro 8y agoAfter a couple years of daily pushups, the maxreps should be over 100 and it much more closely resembles a quick cardio burst than anything resembling strength-training. I do > 160 in a regular set after over a decade of daily pushups, it's not really an issue. Eventually I ended up adding handstand pushups to my daily routine to bring back something strenuous. Edit: Both of my wrists have been broken in the past. When I started this regimen it wasn't even possible to do 20 pushups without agonizing wrist pain. Those pains are a distant memory, they vanished completely around the one year mark. Thank you daily pushups.
