my challenge to you:
do 100 squats a day without even posting about it.
The whole 100 push-ups a day thing feels a little misguided to me. ESPECIALLY if it’s the only resistance exercise you are doing.
Esthetically, we value pecs, but think about how often you use the push-up motion in your day-to-day life.
Maybe pushing open a door …. and push-ups….
Moreover, too much pushing and not enough pulling over time can lead to posture and shoulder mobility problems.
Compared to something like a squat, which, when done correctly, uses multiple muscle groups evenly and it strengthens muscles that you will use every day for the rest of your life.
Sitting/standing, walking/running/jumping, going up/down stairs, getting in and out of bed, getting in your car, etc.
It also activates ATP more which helps overall with healing from any injury.
100 squats, a day will improve your life now and make you live longer.
100 push-ups is a social media meme.
this is a great video on the basics of squatting.
