I got my 50 in today in the following manner: 20, then do something else. 10, then do something else. 10, then do something else. 10. The "something else" was a combination of breakfast prep and squats. I'd been doing 30 push-ups 3 days each week for 3 months and had recently increased that to 40 push-ups those 3 days. Increasing to 50 on Day 1 was not difficult as it followed a weekend of rest. We'll see how I handle trying to do this every day.

This was the first time I'd tried 20 at once. It went well. Next week I'll attempt 30 in the first group.
