The Amazon.com book description

It's the world's most recognizable, straight-forward exercise, but most people don't know it's actually a hardcore full-body workout. 7 Weeks to 100 Push-Ups is the ultimate program to train the body to go from just one push-up to 100 consecutive reps in under two months—sculpting muscles in the chest, abs, back, glutes and arms without a single piece of unwieldy equipment.

The book starts with detailed instructions on how to perform a proper push-up and how to maximize its benefit, breaking down the strength-building effects muscle by muscle. In addition there are day-by-day and week-by-week exercise plans that outline how to work up to 100 push-ups safely and effectively.

I've also included a comprehensive warm-up and post-exercise stretching routine, six different workout plans covering all levels of ability and a basic maintenance plan so you can keep the strength and fitness you've worked hard to attain.

There is also section detailing at least a dozen advanced pushup exercises, some great pushups trivia and a useful collection of frequently asked questions.
