How Much Daily Exercise Is Ideal? Pull-ups, Push-ups,
Skipping & Running Guide
Finding the right number of daily pull-ups, push-ups, skips,
and running minutes depends on your age, fitness level, and goals (fat
loss, strength, stamina, or general health). Here's a practical guide for how
much you should do — and how to build up safely.
💪 Pull-Ups Per Day
Pull-ups build upper body strength, especially in the back,
arms, and core.
|
Fitness Level |
Recommended Daily Pull-Ups |
|
Beginner |
1–5 reps (use assistance if needed) |
|
Intermediate |
6–12 reps, 3–4 sets |
|
Advanced |
15–25 reps, 3–5 sets |
👉 Goal Tip: Focus
on quality over quantity. Use resistance bands or a pull-up machine if you
can’t do full bodyweight reps yet.
💥 Push-Ups Per Day
Push-ups strengthen the chest, arms, shoulders, and core.
|
Fitness Level |
Daily Push-Up Target |
|
Beginner |
10–20 reps, 2–3 sets |
|
Intermediate |
30–50 reps, 3–4 sets |
|
Advanced |
100+ reps, split into 5+ sets |
👉 Variations: Mix
in incline, decline, or diamond push-ups for more challenge.
🦘 Skipping (Jump Rope)
Per Day
Skipping boosts cardiovascular health, coordination, and
burns fat fast.
|
Goal |
Daily Skipping Time |
|
General fitness |
5–10 minutes |
|
Fat loss |
15–20 minutes |
|
High stamina |
30+ minutes (intervals) |
👉 Start Slow: Do 3
rounds of 2 minutes with 30-second rests, then increase as you improve.
🏃 Running Per Day
Running is excellent for cardiovascular health, endurance,
and fat burning.
|
Fitness Level |
Daily Running Target |
|
Beginner |
1–2 km or 10–15 mins (walk/run mix) |
|
Intermediate |
3–5 km or 20–30 minutes |
|
Advanced |
6–10 km or 40+ minutes |
👉 For Weight Loss:
Try interval running — alternate 1-minute sprints with 2-minute jogs for
20–30 minutes.
