[quote=Ren]FYI Walter – it’s an admirable goal, and training to be able to do 100 pushups will give you great endurance and make you really good at… doing a lot of pushups. It won’t increase strength much. If you want confidence-boosting go-ahead-mess-with-me power, you’re gonna have to lift.
And eat. This is actually the hard part.[/quote]
Bo Jackson would disagree. He rarely lifted weights. His training focused on isometrics and exercises like pushups, pullups and dips.
Being the first athlete voted to all-star teams in two major american sports, I think it prepared him for a bit more than … just doing pushups.
