Man Who Did 100 Push-Ups Every Day for a Year Reveals Impact It Had on His Body

A man who committed to doing 100 push-ups every day for an entire year has revealed the impact the challenge has had on his body.

As often, people set themselves goals for the year when January comes around.

The majority would usually give themselves fitness-related goals such as going for runs, doing more exercises or joining the gym.

For James Stewart Whyte, the challenge was a tough one: he wanted to commit to doing 100 push-ups every day for an entire year.

After following through with the challenge, Whyte has now spoken about the impact it has had on his body.

Speaking in a video posted on his YouTube channel, Whyte explained that he chose to embark on the challenge due to the fact that it didn't require a gym membership, travel or a change of clothes.

He said: "I wasn't asking myself to do something daily that I had to explicitly schedule and prepare for in advance."

Whyte then admitted that progress was slow and he had to remain patient to see the results.

He continued: "The progress I made was slow. After the first few months of the year I saw an almost imperceptible change, progress started to show entering the summer.

"Around this time was when other people started to notice as well.I was building muscle and becoming stronger, and the daily workouts were becoming easier."

He went on to state that progress started to show through in the middle of the year but he still had to wait a little longer for proper results.

Whyte added: "Mid year I checked in on my progress, although results were modest, they were there, and it proved that after you establish a new habit you have to give that habit time to work before you see the results."
