3 sets of 500 pushups has to be in the guinness book of world records
Herschel Walker supposedly did between 2500 and 3500 pushups per day during his playing days and claims to do 1500 pushups and 3000 situps every day even now in his 60's. By no means should that man be considered a normal human being though.

It's especially impressive for him since he's like 220 lbs. If you weigh 160, pushups are a lot easier. If you weigh 280, they're almost impossible.

It's just counting to 10 50 times, or 30 times or whatever. So you count to 10 and then count 1, count to 10 and then count 2 count to 10 and then 3, etc all the way what the overall number is. It rolls by pretty quick, you know what I mean if you ever practice the absence of mind thing you do when you are doing 20-30min cardio intently. What sucks is when you get in the middle 20's and can't remember if that was 27 or 28 and do another 10 just to be sure.

When I cite these numbers, this was the end result of probably 18 months-2 years of driving myself daily after a divorce where work, working out, playing Everquest, and LAN parties were the entirety of my life. I barely ate and lived 2 min from a Bally's.

It's more a cardio exercise than anything else. When I was in peak shape, I was swimming 1500m of crawl every day, so I was getting a great shoulder workout in the evenings as well; I tried to focus on chest and back as much as I could.

I weighed 205-210. I looked pretty good but I never looked like that. I've never had that bodybuilder thin skin but being diabetic and taking insulin works against that.
