    100 Pushups Program with Regular Splits

    Hey guys.

    Been a while since I've been on this website..

    I've been wanting to try out the 100 Pushups Program (http://www.hundredpushups.com/week1.....gbUAxNre.dpbs), just for fun. I think it would be cool to be able to knock out 100 straight pushups lol. But I obviously don't want to stop my regular splits, which is usually 4 days a week (push, pull, shoulders and abs, legs). My typical lifting method is heavy with low reps (aim for 5-6, if I hit 8 I increase weight).

    To simplify it, the Pushups program calls for doing pushups pretty much to exhaustion, three days a week. Do you guys think if I did this in conjunction with my typical splits it would be over training? I dont HAVE to do this, I just kinda wanted to do it for fun, but not if it will lead to over training. I should add that I'm cutting so just looking to maintain or slightly increase my lifts, and just maintain muscle.

    Thanks guys

    I can't see it being any more detrimental than incorporating any other activity between workouts, like cycling or running. OTOH it's not going to give you a lot of benefit other than being able to do 100 pushups- which might seem hard now but most fit people could achieve it in a few weeks if they try.

    I plan to treat it the same as running, like you said. I just want another challenge other than my typical workout split.
