after going to gym, and whole day is free, i like to rep out some weighted pushups (since i can do 50+ in a row non weighted).
if i want to make it worthwhile and achieve hypertrophy doing this, how many reps should i be able to do in a row while weighted, since pushups are a pretty high vol exercise compared to bench for example as i cant load enough weight to do 6-8 reps on my back?

amap(as many as possible)
 
Up to 30 is a safe zone. I would rather spam HSPU progression at home. Its harder and shoulder focused. Shoulders are number 1 muscle in priority
If you push yourself hard enough in the gym u wont need that "after workout" workout

yeah maybe i’ll maybe try spam lateral raises with weighted bag or something.
i usually end up doing this on back and bi day so not because i didn’t go hard in gym
