    Do you guys also do push ups the day after a normal gym workout (on which you normally would rest)?

    I'm travelling and so far did 100 push ups (and 100 squats) everyday. But went to the gym yesterday to do some barbell training (didn't do the 100 push ups). Would you also skip doing the push ups doing the next day for recovery from the gym (I trained shoulders and chest with bench and overhead press)?

    Yes , absolutely , if you feel the muscle is still tired some rest is necessary.
    You can't train while you're sore . Even more so if the training is more intense than usual
    Training can only have the opposite result, it is possible to get hurt, to get muscle strains.

    it's a difficult question , it really depends on the type of push ups.
    Regular push ups are easier than others

    Though I upped my reps, I don't feel good about myself as I have been PMO binging since 29/01/2021 & feeling like terrible about it. Been avoiding reading/listening to this SPAM REMOVED (spam code #001) - REPORT TO MODERATION
    And also Your Brain on Porn & mediating. I don't know why I go through phases of not needing to pmo then go straight binging into it for a few days to repeat the cycle. I don't know why I keep going through this cycle when I know ots not good and also avoiding being productive.

  11. Jump rope (minute on minute off five times in a row). 20 pushups, 20 sit-ups, 20 arm curls each arm. I am operating under the philosophy that a little bit each day is better than making plans and commitments I wont actually keep.

    Noodles and chicken are fine. Add some vegetables and fruits to your nutrition. And if you have problems resisting to sugar choose a day in the week for a cheatday, where you can eat sugar and some other things like a piece of cake, small pizza etc. but don't exaggerate with the cheatday! Not only you lose progress but also it can happen, that your stomach wouldn't stand it.
