Centurion Push

How to complete Centurion Push

One hundred unbroken chest-to-floor push-ups is a muscular endurance feat that separates the trained from the talkers. It's not about max strength but about pacing your shoulders, chest, and core through 100 strict reps without dropping to your knees.

1. Confirm your true starting max with one all-out strict set so you know the gap to close
2. Train with greased-the-groove sets, several sub-maximal sets through the day, plus dedicated push days
3. Use a rep scheme like 5 sets building total daily volume well past 100 before attempting it unbroken
4. Drill the strict form every rep: chest touches floor, body in a straight line, full lockout at top
5. Attempt the 100 fresh, well-rested, and slow your tempo to conserve energy after rep 50

Tips

• A consistent breathing rhythm, exhale on the press, delays the burnout that ends most attempts
• Hands flare wider to share load across chest once your triceps start to fail
• Film it so you can confirm every rep hit depth and lockout

What counts as done

A single continuous set of 100 push-ups, chest to floor and arms locked out each rep, no rest in plank or on knees.
