How would you improve yourself if you made a goal of doing 50 pushups. Use the components of fitness.

Explanation:

The components of fitness are:    

Cardiovascular Endurance.

Muscular Strength.

Muscular endurance.

Flexibility.

Body Composition.

In order for me to do 50 pushups, I would need to change my body composition, muscular strength, muscle, and cardiovascular endurance.

I don't need to work on my flexibility since there is not much flexibility that goes in a pushup.

The way I would train would be by gradually increasing my repetitions and sets in order to train my cardiovascular and muscle endurance. With more training, my muscular strength would follow and with enough time and a good diet my body composition would change. Less weight you have on your body will translate into more pushups so I would look into losing some weight, but maintaining as much muscle as I can by eating enough protein and not cutting too many calories.
