I found this link while looking around for push up plans.

It seems like it might be too agressive for me. :act-up:

I have hit the 500 mark several times, but I couldn't sustain it on a daily basis. I think that I probably jumped to 500 too quickly.

Upon reading I think that the plan would not make you strong enough to do 1000 pushups if you couldnt already do quite a few and could possibly really tire you out even if you could. Essentially if you want to get to 1000 a day on a regular basis you should definitely work up much more gradually and if you just wanted to 1000 in an hour as a max numbers attempt i would reccomend building up volume and then tapering a down a bit before your max attempt.
