[@j.pendergrass9805]

That’s how things used to be in the early 20th century culture, the phrase ‘Renaissance Man’ or ‘Uomo Universale’ were popular. Back then a nerd was someone who only did ‘one’ thing well. Most had the attitude that if you were ‘educated’ that it meant physically, mentally, emotionally, and you could express it vocally. Somehow in the later half of the 20th century came technocratic ideas - (Like she’s the smart one; listen to her, or he’s the strongest; let him build that, or they are creative types; don’t give them boring things to do.)

Do you take rest days or do you do 100-200 every day? Personally when I started working out this year I was doing 50-150 per day, but I changed my routine to work more on other muscle groups & let the pecs rest more. Now I have one major chest day where I do 400 pushups (100 weighted, 100 normal, 100 inclined, 100 declined) and 2 other days where I do 150-200, it gives me more time for other exercises, let my chest recover, and it's noticeably more effective at increasing muscle mass (at least for me)

Awesome to see this great channel grow. Here since 10,000 subscribers. Can you make a video about Turkish get up if you incorporate it in your training??

[@derekw40]

I started a few weeks ago doing pushups with the kitchen counter 100 a day for a couple weeks then moved down to a bench doing a 100 a day today i did my first set of 20 in a row on the ground. Im getting stronger my first goal is 100 in a row. See where it goes from there.

[@seanpaul6787]

with someone as diverse as yourself, how did you go about creating a training plan/routine that caters for your many skills?

[@Steve-ArfArf]

He has one available to buy, good price as well - think it's on his website in the link

[@k1ngmarchy320]

Just make something and make it challenging. Make it to where you have to step out of your comfort zone and make it to where you have to push yourself

[@sed1589]

It definitely didn't happen overnight and it's probably one he made that works best for him. Trying to develop all these skills at once while technically possible will be difficult for most especially the inexperienced. Imo u have to build your body to a certain level before you can have a training program this diverse a see/maintain results.

Why am I only finding your channel now?! This is the sort of training I’ve been looking for, and your personality/delivery is so great! Good on you, and wish you continued success!!

[@thegooddoctor5573]

Minding my muscle connection is particularly helpful during pushups. I imagine that I'm trying to shove my hands through the floor, or that I'm a great bear swiping down onto a human skull. This always helps me to produce a lot of force in my movements.

Best pushup video on KZbin. Spectacular explanation and details.

[@StreetBoi69uk]

You’ve outdone yourself again Adam, great video as always! Could you do a video at some point with suggestions for exercises on the frontal plane? We see a lot of skater hops but are there progressions? I think you probably have a lot to say about the neurology of that, proprioception, etc. I know you’ve done your personal trainer course but I’m wondering if you think about being a teacher in person at all? What you do on the channel is amazing and I can see you creating your own exercise academy in the future. Thanks for everything you do! Finally, is it likely my local Waterstones or WHSmith would have your book? Or do I have to order it online?

[@OloffMusic]

definitely one of the top 5 fitness channels on youtube, and totally unique

[@tank2003]

Tip from an Exercise physiologist: when doing chest exercises in general, Keep your elbows at about 45 degrees like OP said. Th reason why is because if you perform push ups or bench press with your elbows tucked into your sides, you will aggravate your AC joints (where your clavicles meet the scapula) over time. This poor form is GREAT for activating the pectoralis major, but the elbows being tucked in causes internal rotation of the humerus. After some time, this internal rotation of the humerus causes the AC joint to encounter a ton of torque (rotational energy in opposite directions) and the cartilage in between the scapula and the clavicle gets inflamed

I'm a big fan of a slow descent and an explosive ascension. Really builds a good pump. Also, Iron Loo built his foundation of strength on years and years of calisthenics. He eventually focused on weight training more, but the dude is nearly 300lbs and can still hold a planche.

I am new to this channel but your positive attitude is infectious! I appreciate learning about your functional approach to fitness as well.

[@yunggolem4687]

Better off with pullups or rows if you're going to do massive volume of something. Anterior musculature is overdeveloped compared to posterior musculature in almost everyone due to sitting, driving, typing on computers, etc.

[@Wolfuskaktus]

Why not both

[@yunggolem4687]

@@Wolfuskaktus You can, especially if you're young and relatively free of injuries, but there's only so much recovery capacity and time in the day. It depends on how much time you can devote to working out and how much energy you have. These aren't unlimited and if you want to get the most out of your time and energy in terms of strength and aesthetic gains then hundreds of pushups is pretty low on the list of efficient methods unless you're relatively untrained. That said, pushups are great, especially if you use a good mix of variations. They are probably the best all-around push-based exercise there is for general health and I think they are great for warmups and accessory/functional movement training in addition to barbell/dumbell. It is my experience that they help to reduce injuries when used as a supplement to bb/db training, however, if your goal is strength in that push movement you would benefit hugely from the barbell and if your goal is aesthetics in the pectoral and anterior delt most people acquire results far faster from dumbbell flies and strict press variations. Ring flies and deep parallel bar/parallette pushups are also more effective in developing the pec. If your goal is push endurance for some strange reason, then hundreds of pushups a day is likely your best bet so have at it. I'm not sure what purpose maximizing your push endurance serves though.

[@70122riley]

Do you have any resources on programming large volumes of pull ups? I'm currently doing something I'm adapting from Mark Wildman's push-up volume cycle but for pull ups instead, but I don't know if it's the best method.

[@iliveinsideyourhouse3943]

[@LTPottenger]

I got up to doing 1000 pushups and 600 situps a day in high school. I got good results but it took hours a day so I did not keep up with it long. Weights are just so much more efficient in the 5-10 rep range though nowadays I am adding in some more higher reps in hope of more hypertrophy from total volume.

[@Niborino9409]

My favorite push up variation is Jeff Cavaliere's twisting push up where you turn your pec towards your arm. Activates more of the pec. Ring pushups are fun too.

Excellent from not only the motivational aspect. But educational also. Tomorrow my colleague and I will do some speed type drills on the arsenal stadium steps. Then run up the near by 15 story tower block, before returning to our gym for some circuit type training. My colleague will soon become a Tough Mudder.

[@PAS024]

Last year around July I was VERY over weight and trying to get motivated. I had started several different workouts and nothing was sticking. I decided to start doing pushups. I have been doing 100 a day since last July. it started with me having to do them throughout the day to today where I do my 100 in 10 minutes. I have lost 20 lbs now. While I have tried to incorporate different exercises, I have ALWAYS done my pushups. No matter what I do my pushups every day. I have also cut and changed things from my diet, but my constant has been the pushups. I have recently added purpees and have been able to keep those up for a month now. 100 Pushups in the morning before work and 75 burpees after work when I get home.
