Popular youtuber MattDoesFitness is known for his physical challenges, even taking on a Navy SEALS fitness test or pole dancing class. And sometimes he failed and other times he succeeded. On this occasion, taking advantage of the fact that one of the exercises he hates the most is push-ups, he decided to do 100 a day for a month. "It is true that I am able to do up to 46 push-ups in a row, but it is not my favorite exercise, of course...".
To achieve the challenge, he established a daily routine: he did the push-ups every day at the same time, always resting 24 hours between one day and the next, and he continued training chest in the gym as he usually did. What did he learn? "That if I made it a routine to do them every day, my mark for push-ups in a row increased, but my physical performance didn't skyrocket either. Specifically, I managed to do up to 61 without stopping."
Conclusion? Matt determined that push-ups are a good method for fitness beginners to build muscle, but to make further progress, he "would recommend that everyone add specific resistance training and hypertrophy work."
