    Good thread, you just got me to exercise.

    I just did 45 in a minute ( no cheating, chest touchin a 2" book). Now I got a goal, to do my age in a minute. I better hurry with that one before I get any older.

    Hey all two things...

    1) For those of you that can only do say 5 or less push ups and want to work on improving. You can change the resistance by placing your hands at different heights. Try doing push ups with your hands on your kitchen counter, once you can do three sets of ten then progress to push ups with your hands on your dining room table, and once you can do three sets of ten there progress with your hands on two chairs, and once you can do three sets of ten there progress to regular mens push-ups.

    2) Push ups are much easier the lighter you are (and the shorter your arms are also). So comparing how many push ups you can do is not a fair comparison between people of differing weights.
