Pushups

I was thinking about doing the 100 pushup challenge or something along those lines along with the stronglifts. I know pushups *used* to be a part of stronglifts but aren't any more. I feel like my benchpress, and OHP are lagging way behind in terms of progress and was thinking adding pushups may help both... any thoughts, hints, suggestions?

    From what I understand... doing extra cardio or physical workout can hurt your Stronglifts numbers. your muscles need TIME to recover, if your doing pushups say, on your off days, your bench, and OHP will suffer.
