    Wow! That's truly astonishing!!!! @Zephon
     
  2. Did at least 90 push-ups divided in sets of 30 each plus uncounted push-up at class. Also my wrists, hands and knuckles hurt, at least it is not from fapping lol.

    Yes I know! Did fasting myself a few months ago, very difficult to keep up if working out at the same time. But did not try it during NoFap though.

    3 Days On Day 1 (Bottom Position)

    Warm up

    Did my ILIT: Impromptu Loadless Isometric Training 30 times before my workout & 30 afterwards

    Which are;

    1. LOWER LEG ISOTENSION Tense the calves and lower legs hard. (It can be tough to get the knack of this, at first; lifting the heels half an inch off the ground will help.) 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    2. THIGH ISOTENSION While standing upright, tense the quadriceps and hamstrings hard. The legs can be either locked, or bent. (You can even perform this seated.) 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    3. GLUTEAL ISOTENSION After the thigh tension, tense and squeeze the gluteal muscles together as hard as possible, without moving the hips or thighs. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    4. STOMACH ISOTENSION Smoothly exhale; once the air has left your lungs and the stomach is drawn in, then tense the abdominals hard. There is no need to bend forward. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    5. LATERAL TORSO ISOTENSION Pull the shoulders down in their sockets and tense the lats (under the armpits) hard. You do not need to spread your shoulders out for this drill. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    6. PEC ISOTENSION Pull the shoulders forward in their sockets and tense and squeeze the chest muscles hard. (You don’t need to move your arms much.) 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    7. ARM ISOTENSION Holding the arms slightly bent or straight, tense the biceps and triceps hard. You also have the option of making a fist, and tensing your grip. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

    With 2 KG Dumbbells I did;

    Shoulder Press:

    1 set of 60 Reps

    Front Raises

    1 set of 60 Reps

    Bicep Curls

    Holy!!!!! You guys are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

    Did 100 push ups today! I'll try harder tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sets: 2x20 - 6x10
     
  6. 31 + 30 + 35 + 35 + 29 + 30 + 28 + 30 + 34 + 20 = 302.

    I finally went past the 30 push-ups in a few of the sets. Looking forward to get more stable numbers at the 35th in the future, strong and long journey ahead.

    1x20 close-grip pushups
    1x10 bench press with 30 kg + longbar
    3x12 deep pushups

    1x10 reverse pushups
    1x14 decline pushups

  17. 108 (36 + 36 + 36). Just wanted to add something I find curious...the day I did 302 push-ups was the day before I relapsed, I had a lot of energy to do them and actually, after I finished, I was not even tired and could have kept going but stopped due to precaution. What I am aiming at is that there could be a relation to me having the mental and physical energy to do the push-ups and being in a NoFap streak. I had a lot of urges that day so the push-ups came easy.
