if i steadily worked my way up to say 100/150 consecutive push-ups a day — is that enough of a workout? do i really need something else? right now I can do 10

I’ve done a few 30-day challenges: 100 push ups, 100 burpees, 200 squats (want to do pull ups next)— I do a set of 10-20 then 100 skip ropes and repeat. It’s always a great workout, but I think the ideal one is some from if 100-150 mix of push-ups, pull ups, squats and crunches.

medical literature shows significant reduction for all cause mortality as the weekly exercise regimen approaches 2hr cardio + 1hr strength training so if you have more time, mix in some run/bike/elliptical for more cardio and squats/pullups/burpees to hit other muscles

You’d be better off doing a full body workout of some kind that incorporates a variety of movements. Push ups, body weight squats, and pull-ups are a good starting core of exercises.

Yes, and you can do them in whatever # sets work for you. A great minimalist daily workout is 100 squats, 50 push ups, 50 pull ups. Over time you can push yourself to get all your reps done faster, or increase total reps, or increase difficulty (e.g. weight vest)
