Or, you could go the sane option and stick to 60. It's a great number mathematically.

this morning I did 4 sets on the bench of 8 at my max for the weight and than did a shit ton of negatives... I tried my push ups about an hour ago and couldn't even do 2.... hopefully before bed I have some recovery and can at least get 60

Ah, shit, thought I was talking to @CanYouQUACK...

Apparently you can do a set of 50 anyway?, so 100 a day shouldn't be a big deal for you if you haven't destroyed your arms already. I need to start doing chinups regularly as well, to minimize the muscle imbalance.

yeah I can do 50 a set but today I destroyed my whole upper body... My food pic in s/whatsfordinner took 9 pictures because my arms are still shaking lol. I'm not even joking I can't do even 10 atm. and no worries, I'm glad we're all getting stronger. my goal is 1000 pushups in a day. I used to work out with firemen near the hall in my little town and it's completely possible, I've seen it.

edit: Subset your Chin ups with open arm squats, it'll help with your balance, especially if the chin-ups make you shake.
