Hey folks - just wondering if anyone here has ever done this and what success levels did you have and results?

You can do this with most bodyweight exercises.

Correct, I am just curious how peoples success was doing this and if they really reached 100 pushups in 6 weeks.

I am 6' and 256lbs and did 14 pushups as my test so I will be starting this today and see how far I get.

I did 101 pushups on a PT test once, right now i probably could do 80 ish.

Let us know how it goes. That is alot.

I'll try this out as well. Will be doing this, running about 10 miles a week, and lifting weights, low weight many reps. Trying to lean up, also going to diet and watch what I eat.

I do 200 a day, 100 in the am and another hundred in the pm. Can someone get me a cookie?

Can someone find an equivalent method but for running?

I popped down at work and did 129 consecutive. Took about 2.5 minutes. I train like a madman though. I gotta say, if you can do more than 150, you spend too much time doing pushups or are a freak of nature.

I dont do pushups regularly (although I need to since Im going to be doing a lot of them in basic) but when I do I can usually bust out 80 or so. I could probably get to a 100 within a week Id guess. Im a smaller guy though so it comes a little easier I guess.

Good luck though!

The most I've ever done is 62 in one minute for a PFA. I've never tried to see how many I can do consecutively but I doubt its much more than that.

Are you looking to run longer and faster? If so, try sprint intervals. Sprinting will increase stamina by keeping your leg muscles from being bored and forcing your body to expand its endurance.

most ive done was 70 in a minute during basic.

Damn, 15 got me tired as hell. Lets see how this goes...

yeah I used to be able to do about 60-80 for the APFT.

I was doing some pushups earlier. I dunno if you heard me counting I did over a thousand. I can barely lift my arms cuz I do so many.

LOL!

I can make it to about the 80 or 85 range but Im really gettin tired at that point. I used to lift 4-5 times a week, and I did that for a while but I've been slacking and have only been to the gym a few times in the past month.

100 push-ups in under 2 minutes will get you a perfect score of 300 for Green Beret/Ranger training.

Did them no problem.

About 5 years ago I was in really good shape and I did 100 in a row. Granted, half-way through, my form went to hell.

After I was done I couldn't hear for about 20 seconds. It was scary as hell.
