Atomic Pushups: How a Single Max Set Changes Your Fitness
A single set of pushups has the power to completely transform your fitness. I know that's a bold claim, but I can assure you from my own experience, it checks out. How? The answer lies in the compounding power of habit. In his bestselling book Atomic Habits, author James Clear reminds us of a powerful truth. Tiny changes produce remarkable results over time. He says, “All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision." The magic, therefore, isn't in the act itself, but in the repetition of it. He goes on to say that, "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become." Your decisions form your habits, but then, over time, your habits form you. This is certainly true in fitness. Getting fit is a result, but being fit? That's a habit that you build into who you are. You must become the kind of person who does things on autopilot every day to prioritize your health and fitness-and you do that one small action, one good decision, or dare I say, one set of pushups at a time.

Pro tip: Want to make your pushups more difficult so you can focus more on building strength over endurance and metabolic conditioning? Add a weighted vest or a ruck pack with 20 or 30 pounds in it. Shout out to the GoRuck 3.0 which is the backpack I'm using in this video

Just do pushups, pull-ups, squat
Also a great place to start. The biggest thing is find something you can sustain and build a base from. Simple beats complicated. ua-cam.com/users/shortsNZ5CsYe7IH4
I mean I guess if you're trying one exercise to cover your whole body you probably want a clean and press. Is this fine for your legs and front delts if you can only do one exercise? Sure. Probably not a great exercise for any singular body part though since you're just heavily taxing your body with the squat while limiting the actual strength component to an overhead press. Probably best to just do a clean and press.
Actually, you're likely better off doing normal squats and then 10 seconds after your squats doing X number of push-ups, take a normal rest and finish off your sets that way. That's likely the superior method vs this. Clean and press is probably your best singular exercise.
@@Kefka2010 those are all good options. I wouldn't personally build an entire program around one exercise either, as obviously, there will be some holes in such a simple plan. That being said, it's great to build around a few simple but effective compound movements when someone is just getting going with building a fitness base. Start simple, build the base, and scale from there.

Just reminded me that I have a few kettlebells that I haven't used in months.
@@joshyjosh8817 dust them off! Great way to train :)
Nice handles! Does the epic mountain view come with them? 🤣
No...but it's rumored to make your reps more effective!
Makes perfect sense.
Keep it simple...smarty :)
this is true
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it.
The ending was gold. SO TRUE!
Yeah...the math is a bummer...but super important to know!
I love this! A new perspective on strength training. Fortunately I drive a small car. Definitely subscribing, Keep up the excellent content ......
Thanks! Works great with a small car too. A trailer hitch of some kind comes in handy, but if you find a flat spot, pushing a small car is an excellent full body workout.
And very practical if you're one of those people who tries to see how close to the E on your gas tank you can get 😭
Cool video! Very helpful for a person who wants to build strength in a practical way. Excellent! Enjoy a great evening .....😀
Thanks! Builds functional strength and is also SUPER practical when you are on a time budget :)
Love this video! I noticed your channel earlier in "Samuel's Think Team" ZOOM. I like avocado oil also for cooking. Great video and very helpful for folks wanting to enhance their nutrition. Keep on helping people on their health journey. I am going to subscribe, to keep up with your excellent video content. Have a great evening .....😀

Was watching Reacher the other day on Amazon Prime, and even though Alan Ritchson is stupid strong in his own right, they still top light him whenever he takes his shirt off. Makes a HUGE difference, haha.
@@fitnessforsmartpeopleyeah,but he also isnt natural anymore 😅 reacher was a cool show though
@@FIashOOT yeah. Season 2 he admits to being on TRT, which is basically low key steroids. Wish he had stayed natural, for sure.
Let's go!!!
Is there any danger to this? Thank you for the inspiration.
This was just a fun workout I did with friends. I would not recommend it except in highly trained individuals at above average strength levels. Always follow a slow progression when scaling weight and intensity in workouts.
At a local gym, a great place to start would be some lighter weight sled pushes/pulls once you've built up to it.
LOVE this!!!
Thanks!
Try it when you are short on time! It's so easy. I hope to do more videos like this of super short but healthy meals :)
This is great. Thanks for this!
I was GASSED when you had me lift the ball weights. Great workout.
Yeah. Atlas Stones are amazing. The weight feels so much heavier than what it actually is.
Beast mode activated.
Haha...gotta challenge yourself from time to time :)
Hey, unless you actaully trained for this, dont do thd, you czn easilt tear a ligament
Yes. Injury risk goes up the closer we get to maximal effort/work capacity/load. I wouldn't start on this day one, to say the least. As with everything, scale in a methodical, calculated manner and keep yourself in the game :)
It’s surprising to me that ground beef protein is absorbed better than steak. I would of just assumed it was the same. Plate looks delicious!
Sure thing! Your body has to do less work to digest it since it is ground up in advance, so it is processed more efficiently.
@@fitnessforsmartpeople Makes sense! Thanks for the response.
@@urbanagmike for sure!
This is so practical.
Yeah. Extremely time-efficient.
Beautiful plates & great tips.
Thanks! Taking pictures of what you eat is great personal accountability!
*great video!*
Thanks!
I like the idea of changing the carry types. Thanks!
Thanks! It really helps you maximize the farmer's carry. Hope it helps you take yours to the next level!
👏🏼
Love it!
Finally committing to getting videos out every week!
That made my side hurt just from watching (from laughing)
Glad I'm not the only one with a hurting side! 😭🚑
I guess that quote isn’t lying. 😂 Man that looked painful. Hope you’re alright.
All is good and all healed up! Thankfully, it's a bit in the past, haha.
ITS CALLED HIKING LMAO, STOP ✋️ BRUTHUR UNNNH BRUTHUR EWWW 😅 JUST HIKE PLEASE, OR WALK.
Nice meeting you
Right on!😊
It's no joke! Try it on a bar of some kind. Makes pushups TWICE as difficult.
Nice!
Video one in the books!
Cool bro!! 💪😎👊
