I would think 5k might be a good amount to bet on.

i am pretty sore now, ok really sore.

5K in a day would be a good bet, but i wouldn't book it for a small amount, the next day would be hell.

boring part, i agree with subfallen.

nice work btw sub, thanks. J.

Fix all the volume concerns if you're worried yours pecs aren't getting it.

I bench 1.5x my body weight but its difficult for me to do 50 pushups. How the hell do you guys breeze through hundreds? Much less 1k in a day... I mean, I might have to try it for [censored] and giggles, but I doubt I could do it.

they are really easy if you break them down into sets of 20 or so and avoid getting close to failure.

i went down to sets of 10 (which aren't even taxing a bit) and wouldn't be for you i am sure either, for the last 200 and did a set every few minutes.....actually did 30 to finish it off at the very end......easier than you think.

i am sore in weird spots today though, stiff neck, lats mostly, pecs are totally fine.

thremp, what did you mean? my comprehnsion skills are so lacking sometimes. thanks. J.

my lats are the only thing that get sore from doing pushups. i never really do pushups though.
