For the next two weeks, I will finish every workout with 500 push-ups.
That’s 500 reps of push-ups on top of my regular routine.
Will I pack on a ton of muscle doing this?
Unlikely.
And I’m not doing this to build muscle. I’m not doing it for any cosmetic benefits.
I’m doing this for one reason and one reason only.
To pay my dues.
Mind Over Matter
Every day I get asked something along the lines of…
“Victor, what about this workout routine??”
“What about that exercise??”
“What about this diet??”
“Will I build muscle doing 3 sets of this exercise??”
“How many reps of that exercise??”
My answer to all those bitch-made questions: DO IT, and you’ll know.
Those questions you’re losing sleep over? Worthless. They won’t get you anywhere.
There’s a word for that: PROCRASTINATION aka sitting on your ass scratching your balls thinking about stuff.
Don’t think. Stop thinking and start doing.
There’s only one way for you to find out. There’s only one way for you to get real answers.
Get off your butt and START!
Will doing 500 push-ups a day build muscle, burn fat and get you superhuman strong?
Only one way to find out, homeboy. Get down on the floor and bang out 500 push-ups after EVERY workout for the next 2 weeks and you’ll know.
Is this challenge science-based? Are there studies showing this will have positive results?
No.
And you should know better than to ask questions like that. Haven’t you learned anything yet?
Regardless of what the physiological effects are, one thing I can GUARANTEE this challenge will do for you.
Make you harder.
Let’s face it.
Most of you are soft as baby shit.
You’re professional complainers, whiners and delegators of responsibility.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going… so they say. But when the going gets tough, you’re nowhere to be found.
Because you’re afraid of pain. You’re afraid of suffering. You’re afraid of leaving comfort behind and moving towards your potential.
That’s right.
You’re afraid of filling the shoes destiny has set aside for you.
Evolution Of Self
“A man can fail easily.
He can succeed only by paying out all that he has and is.” – Henry Ford
Let me tell you a little secret.
It’s not about following the optimal way. It’s not about playing it safe.
It’s about finding out how far you can go. It’s about finding out what you are made of.
You have the potential for greatness buried deep inside you.
Have you never wondered what’s on the other side? Don’t you have a deep longing for progress, for transformation, for evolution?
I do.
It’s called drive. Nothing great was ever accomplished without it.
So the other day, when the idea for this challenge entered my mind, I didn’t question it. I simply rolled with it.
I didn’t google what the effects of 500 push-ups a day are, because there is ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT!
So I got down on the floor and banged out 500 reps of push-ups after my full-blown shoulder workout (watch the video).
And do you know what happened immediately after I got done with my last rep?
Bliss.
I felt incredible. I felt like I had accomplished something big.
I didn’t feel fatigued or sore, I felt intoxicated for the rest of the night. I felt like nothing in this world can stop me.
And for a moment, I wished that I could transfer that feeling to you. I wanted you to understand.
I wanted you to know what it’s like.
But you’ll have to walk through the fire yourself. You have to pay your dues.
Nobody can step up for you.
So tell me, are you up for a challenge?
I’ll see you on the other side
