Alright, what is the trick to stop falling behind. Today I was only able to do 17. Do I need to take a day or two off or just keep going? I recover way faster now to do another rep. Is it the mental part as I am forcing myself now? I also think it could be the morning reps?
 

Highly recommend the audio book if anyone enjoyed his college speech. His voice and delivery is awesome as he narrates his books. It only takes 1 person singing!

Being in the morning without being warmed up you won't be able to do as many as you did the 100 rep day. If you did 17 cold, you could probably eat breakfast get all your crap ready for work start your truck go back in and bust your 23 or whatever your number is out way easier the with your blood pumping some or your sore and not recovered......but you shouldnt be doing do your max number for a wake up set everyday. 1/2 to 3/4 your max for one set just to set your mind for the day. This is more to stay disciplined, but you will get stronger and used to it doing it daily and be sble to increase your number as the days go by. There is no trick of not falling behind, just doing it is the trick. The vast majority of men your age probably can't do 17 push ups. Good job
 
Sooooo....no more morning and evening?

Just sat down after dinner and my brain is telling me to jog up the stairs and start my reps of 10.
I'm going to add 10 to my number this morning and stick with it tomorrow and so on just because your starting this and healthy food has been kicking in and the holiday slump feels like it's history.....
