Four on a hot day. Gosh- I wish they were still 10¢.  The other kind I can't do any more because my wrist won't go that way any more.

I haven’t exercised in years now, it’s so bad but good I can still do them lol thanks for making me want to workout again 👍

I've been taekwondo for years. We are trained to do them on the first two knuckles, as this is where you properly strike to avoid breaking your hand, it also builds a stronger punch. I can do well over your 60 limit.

Levin · Answer

For the purposes of accuracy, anyone who says 60, I can confidently 1/3 that number.

A pushup is done in a slow and controlled fashion. At the top your arms are fully bent to emphasise the stretch, at the bottom, your nose should touch the floor. There should be a slight pause at the top and bottom. Descent is two to three seconds and same with the ascent.

I'm sure I could get to 20 of these. If I'm fresh and really going for it I'd like to hope I can get to 30.

Better yet to do them on parallettes for more of a stretch at the bottom.

incorrected · Answer

Something tells me that 20% claiming they can do 51-60 have either interpreted that to mean 'in total' rather than 'in a row', or they're not doing them properly, or they're lying. Either that or we got a few marines up in this joint!

A proper push up?  Maybe one... lol  A girl pushup? A lot more... maybe I should work on my upper body and core strength.

Blunky · Answer

Had to do 75 to max the push up part of PT tests for my age group before getting out of the military. Now I probably can't even do 40 without hurting myself. It's just such a boring exercise compared to everything else I do.

Sonorous · Answer

I don't usually train for endurance. But I'd do 52reps just to be in the top 85% of this poll. Just for my ego.

CheeseMonster · Answer

I just got up to 40 at failure a couple days ago. Not sure where my end goal is, but I'm past my starting goal now at least.

RingOfFire · Answer

Believe it or not at age 70 I can do over 50. I've been working out my whole life and when you get to be my age it really pays off.

Nikki1989 · Answer

I have never tested myself in that way.

Ladsin2 · Answer

A healthy amount. When I was in college we had to do ~2000/day, I'd do 75 in 1.5 minutes. Now I'm not as good at them. I do five sets of 50 in the mornings when I work out. Granted not as often as I should.

FreyaRed · Answer

20 maybe but I don't train anything currently

pascal_climbs · Answer

Depends on form. In one series, at least 40. In a 2 min interval 60+

exitseven · Answer

I have a cranky shoulder so after 25-30 pushups it just gets too painful. And forget about benching anymore. Damn it sucks to get old.

Phoenix98 · Answer

I honestly don't know how many I can do right now. At one point though I could do about a 150 of them at once.

BCRanger10 · Answer

In what amount of time? I could probably get to 61+.

NicholasRedone · Answer

andreasderjuengere · Answer

I couldn't tell. I don't waste my time with trivialities :D

Joshydavid25 · Answer

I used to be able to do 100+ in a row, but now, with some pushing, it's probably 61+ ...

Kingofkings1992 · Answer

On a good day, I can reach about 25-30 in one sitting. I’m 270 lbs, so that’s pretty good for my size. Many people also do them with incorrect form.

LiamJHayden · Answer

I stopped at 65 because I was already off your chart and was bored.

SmokinAces2000 · Answer
