"Clammy that's fucking gay I can do at least 10 pullups and 50 pushups."
Cool story, bro. Did you do any today? Yesterday?
If you do them every day, you're all set, you don't need this post.
If you haven't done any since last week, or last month, or last time there was a thread in here about doing them, then listen to this.
The working out might not be as hard as getting yourself to do it every day.
You know what's not hard? Flossing. I fucking hate flossing. It took some effort to get myself to floss every day. Flossing isn't difficult, making yourself floss is. The discipline of doing it every day might be what you actually need to work on.
1 pushup is BS. It's really, really hard to justify not doing even ONE pushup and ONE pullup. Do it literally every day. When you get overwhelmed by how dumb only one of each is, you're free to do more, but you are NEVER allowed to not do at least one.
I'm going to start doing this. Anybody else going to commit to at least ONE pullup and pushup every single day?
Or is that too big of a commitment for you?

I swear on my life that this is one of the first pieces of advice I give to anyone who talks about getting fit. Set the bar as fucking low as possible and do it.
Just one per day

very true. you can't just expect to do 50 pushups on day one when you haven't used your muscles in months, if not, years. there's no shame in starting off slow and working your way up. in fact, it's the only way you can safely adjust your body to it's new changes in order to not overdo it and seriously hurt yourself.
