Ten Thousand Method
Just intelligent repetition for progressive improvement :D
I had about 12 days break from my training at the start of the month. My new fitness goals are:
- 100 push ups in a row with 2kg
- 100 jump squats in row
- 100 sit ups in a row
- 25 pull ups in a row
I have never achieved any of these with good technique, or with a fixed cadence. I put on some (too much?) weight this year. I don't think it will cause any health issues, but extra weight always makes body weight training more difficult. It can make a lot of athletic pursuits more difficult: combat sports, running / track, gymnastics etc. I'm still not really sure what to do about my weight gain, because my performance and appetite have such a strong correlation. Increased athletic performance = increased appetite = increased weight. I think this isn't a big deal (it's often desired) for guys training in a gym. But it definitely costs performance in body weight training.
I'm guessing this might be how much time I'll need to accomplish them:
- 100 push ups in a row with 2kg - maybe 1 year?
- 100 jump squats in row - 4 to 8 weeks?
- 100 sit ups in a row - 4 to 8 weeks?
- 25 pull ups in a row - maybe 1 year..?
The sooner the better!
Personal example is the most effective way to encourage family and friends with their own health and fitness.
