I think a more interesting bet would be to see how many pushups you could do with raw eggs in your hand before breaking them. world record is apparently 124. you could get some crazy lopsided bets if you do this against someone who's never even considered the idea before.

Aspirin has to be cheating in a bet like this. My bet was for 1500 in 18 hours and we banned aspirin, creatine and caffeine. If aspirin and creatine are allowed, he can still win this bet without trying.

'Without trying' might be bit of an exaggeration but point made. Still, there's are ways around it. Acetominophen can be substituted, and i'm sure they wouldn't even consider weed. Not too many people are even aware of how much of a workout enhancer(for high rep stuff) it is.

[censored], doing 15 at a time is stupid bro.

24 hours, 60 minutes in an hour = 1440 minutes in a day.

effort required to do two pushups = almost none

effort required to do fifteen = considerably more

do 500 sets of 2 each, making sure to do 30 sets in an hour. the key to this bet is patience, and the willingness to miss some sleep in order to win $2000.

i'd have done the bet, but i'd want $5000 to [censored] up my day completely doing it. although, i could probably do 1000 pushups in half that time.

ROFL. I'm training for Navy and can do 90 pushups in 2 minutes. I still wouldn't take this bet. But if you have to, make sure you stretch and drink water. ALso, increase protein and pasta intake in small portions.

This oversimplifies it a bit, but you do not want to do pushups to the point of exhaustion in any one set as that will require a longer recovery period and you do not want to tear down muscles as you would for strength training.
10 every 5 minutes would allow you to get there without too much problem, but do the idea of finishing before sleep is key.
