Do you want to set a new PR for Max Push-Ups?

I just crushed my previous best for a single set of Max Push-Ups. How did I do it? With a plan of course!

Let’s take a step back and let me introduce you to Pavel Tsatsouline. Tsatsouline is a trainer who gained fame by brining many Russian training techniques to the masses. Among his credits are introducing Russian SPETSNAZ training to American Special Forces, and another little piece of training equipment that you are probably familiar with, the Kettlebell.

Tsatsouline also popularized a training technique known as the ‘Fighter Pull-Up Program’. The ‘Fighter Pull-Up Program’ was key to me crushing my Max Push-Ups.

Dr. Rhonda Patrick has a Ph.D. in biomedical science, as well as her Bachelor’s in biochemistry/chemistry. She has done extensive research on aging, cancer and nutrition.

The study confirmed that getting older is “associated with progressive declines in resting and TEE (total energy expenditure).” Are your daily habits supporting your metabolism or contributing to the drain even further?
