    So do you do 3 or 4 each day for a week and then double them the next week?

    My arms are definitely the weakest part of my body. I guess the better question is, am I suppose to do them daily?

    That's the idea though nothing wrong with rest days. I'll probably have one tomorrow cause I did so many push ups today with my workouts
