I ask because I did pushups yesterday instead of the press machine, and I'm sore, so I assume it works slightly different muscles or works them differently?https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1158438852970844160 …

yes, I'm sure that it does work different muscles to more fully elaborate: my guess is that progress on any given muscle is capped at, say, 1% per month or whatever, but you can do much better for first few months so hopping form A to B to C to D can give you big increases >

but once you switch from A to B, your A starts falling so then you rotate through B, C, D, E ... Z, rotate back to A ... and see big 20% gains all over again ... because you fell 20% while on B,C etc now, that said, might be good if you want to exercise all the various muscles

but my naive have-no-data theory is that people do this not bc it's carefully thought out but bc (a) folk wisdom, (b) the soreness "means it's working", (c) the short term numbers look and feel great, (d) few people keep long term logs or go back and check them
