This Push Up Workout Is...
Guaranteed To Increase The #
Of Push Ups You Can Do

by Joshua Tapp

push-up workout

A good push up workout is hard to find. I've seen workouts telling you to do hundreds and hundreds of push ups per day.

That may be great for some of you who can already do 50 push ups with no rest. For the ones who have trouble doing 50, what are you supposed to do? Let's find out...

Why are you looking for a push-up workout? Do you need to take a maximum push-up test for school? Are you trying to pass a police test? Or are you trying to pass a physical fitness test for the military?

I have a very simple solution for you today! I know the absolute best way to increase the number of push-ups you can do.

The Push-Up Workout
from Weight Lifting Complete

The push up workout schedule you will be following has you working out 3 times per week. See the schedule below:

Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7

Workout A Rest Workout B Rest Workout C Rest Rest

Push Up Workout Schedule

Each of the 3 workouts above are going to be different. You've got to do the workouts as scheduled. Here they are...

Workout A

This workout is going to mimic the push up test you have to pass. If you have 1 attempt to do the most push ups, do that for this workout. If you have 2 minutes to do the maximum number of push ups, do that for this workout. Do an exact replica of the push-up test that you must complete for this workout.

Ensure that you record the number of push-ups you do this workout and every workout. You'll see your numbers increasing each week, and this will motivate you to keep going.

Workout B

I want you to do 10 sets of push up during this workout, but these are going to be low intensity sets. Rest 1 minute between sets. But here's the key to this workout...

When the rep speed begins to slow down, I want you to stop the set. I do not want you going to failure. As soon as you start to slow down during a set, stop! Keep track of the number you get each week. This number will improve each week.

Workout C

This push-up workout is really going to increase your strength and get you ready for your next workout test in Workout A. This one is going to be the toughest, and I want you to go all out during this workout. You've got to really push yourself here.

You will be doing 5 total sets here, but there's a trick to doing this test. I want you to do your first set to complete failure (until you can't do another rep). Stand up and take 10 deep breaths while you shake out your arms. The deep breaths are very important. Get as much air as you can.

As soon as you take your 10 deep breaths, drop down and once again do as many push ups as possible. Then, stand up again and take 10 deep breaths. Repeat this process for 5 total sets. Record the total number of reps!

The free push up workout above will help you to quickly increase the total number of push ups you can do in a single attempt for your push up test. Every Monday, you will have a chance to pass your test again.

If you have a choice for when to take your test, do not take it until you are passing your test easily during Workout A. Always give yourself 2 to 3 days of full rest before taking your test. Workout A is always on Monday so that you have 2 full days of rest before that workout.

This helps you mimic your actual test and gives you a huge mental advantage. Your test will be easy to pass because you've been regularly passing it during your Monday workout. It's simply another workout!

You know you can pass the test. You believe you can pass the test. AND YOU WILL pass the test. It's that simple.

You Passed Your Push Up Test!
Congratulations!

Follow the push-up schedule given for as long as you need. Do your workouts consistently. Never skip one. Work hard and follow the directions. You will pass your test!!! Good luck from Weight Lifting Complete.

Let us know how it goes for you.

Totally Blown Away by the WLC System...

Hi Josh,

Greetings from Australia, mate. I received your WLC Program recently and have only just got to emailing you (reason being I took quite a while exploring the entire package!!!).

I have to admit that over the past years I've purchased many programs via the internet and I can say with complete honesty that I have *never, ever*, had the pleasure of receiving one such as yours!!!

I was totally blown away by everything, from the log books, the big beefy manual, right on through to all those fantastic calculators! It comes through that you really put your all into the package. I've seen all those programs which claim to 'lay it all out for you ... paint by numbers ... take you step-by-step', etc.but only one is deserving of these claims ... and it's yours.

I especially found the goal setting information to be very, very comprehensive and so well laid out. I've read goal setting books, articles, websites, etc. but never really applied any of it to my endeavours in the gym.

Your system will have me going after my dream body with a vengeance, as I will be commencing the program this coming Monday.

In previous years I was a chronic "routine/program hopper"; I'd spot yet another new system I thought I would follow and away I'd go ... for about 3 weeks if I was lucky!

Despite all that, during some years I'd build a little muscle, lose a little fat and start looking reasonable, then slack off. I have a well equipped home gym which includes everything you recommend.

I have always been good with my meal choices but the bottom line is I was never consistent with anything!!!!

I have a very strong feeling all that is about to end - pronto! I'm really looking forward to starting the program Monday 30th August, and totally looking forward to some *real results at last*.

Oh, by the way I am 56 years old and my long-term goal is to have an awesome physique at 60 in comparison to the average one I had at 30. Thank you once again for putting out such a terrific and very complete program - I will not have any hesitation in recommending it to everyone I know.

Cheers,
Gary McDonald
