"... but I figured since I don't actually like doing pushups I'd content myself with the 20 or so that I can do now, and do a bit more balanced workouts a few times a week. ..."
Sounds pretty reasonable.
The one reason these 100PU's have against them is the amount of work required to get to 100. Muscles take a long time to harden. A long time. To get to 100 a lot of people will give up. I notice this looks like a group activity. Nothing like group pressure to keep up. But a lot of hackers are in smaller teams or individual. It's also hard work. 20 a day no problems. It's not hard then to do another REP when the arms & shoulders are conditioned.
