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?
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
Our age is more appropriate, not your. Sorry.
Fasted morning workouts will be drastically different than fed evening workouts. Recovery is not a bad idea at our age. If every day is the desire, do 25 a day for a couple weeks, then 35, and so on. Work your way to the goal of 100.
I doubt i ever stick with it that long. More interesting and figuring it out at this point. We shall see tho.
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.....
Listen to your body but only to a certain extent.
First, everyone’s body is different based on countless factors. You’ll know when you’re sore vs hurt vs injured. When you’re sore that’s a good thing. When you’re hurt that’s like a yellow light. You can keep going but use caution to avoid injury. When you’re injured things stop and it takes time to fully recover.
Yesterday should have been a jogging day for me, but I did 30 minutes of yoga instead. Why? For me, I’ve learned a good night’s rest is so critically important. Wednesday night I had a ton of stuff on my mind, which had me up throughout the night. It was terrible night’s rest. I chose yoga over running as a rest. It’s still a beneficial workout, I moved my body for 30 minutes, still pushed myself through a few parts, and got on with my day.
Fast forward to this morning, I slept amazing last night. Woke up excited to workout and had a fantastic weight training!
It’s ok to rest and take it easy somedays. Actually, it’s necessary to do so. What is most meaningful for me on those active rest days, is that I still complete some kind of activity. By doing so, I maintain my routine which mentally sets my day up for success, plus I’m listening to my body and resting it when it needs it.
Gotcha, I also feel like I need to apologize for being so ignorant on this subject. I have just never cared before. Even tho I have been half passing it thru this, id like to half ass it the correct way. I was thinking about adding setups next week.
Directly related to taking care of your physical body is taking care mentally and most importantly, spiritually. The three are all connected and I find when I’m working on all three, I’m at my best. If I neglect one or more of the three areas, I come up short.
This morning’s podcast was on taking care of our bodies so I wanted to share this episode. It’s a good listen and only a few minutes. This whole week was good, so if today’s episode resonates, go back to Monday’s and listen to all of this week’s shows.

I think the hardest part to all this is the routine. It’s sooo easy to drift away. It will happen and has happened to every single person here. The most important thing is just developing that routine and the discipline. It’s really simple, but really difficult at the same time.
