Just keep working at it, but also make sure to give yourself a break once in a while. Doing nothing but upper body every single day can actually do more damage than good.

And as for the number of push ups in the run of a day, TI is a little off, as you'll only end up doing maybe 200-300 a day on BMQ, and it might ramp up a bit during SQ and subsequent training. 25 push ups is the maximum your staff can give you at one time, and they usually will only make you do them once per screw up.

In any even, good luck when you join up, and whatever you do, don't flaunt the fact that you were a Reservist when you join the Reg Force and come to RMC. Experience is good, but thinking that you're better than others isn't.
