    I can do 25 girly push ups. I haven't tried them on my toes, but I'm working up to it. :)

    After MONTHS, I got up to 100 total pushups last night. Full toe push ups. in 6 sets over about 25 minutes (25,25,15,15,10,10). If I did just 1 set to exhaustion though I think I could *possibly* get into the 40s, but 35 is probably more accurate.

    When I first started I couldn't do a girly push up.. Than I moved up to doing 20 girly push ups.. Now I can do them on my toes I try to do about 4 sets of 10

    I know I can do about 40 pushups just like that (never timed it or whatever)... When doing chest exercises, i sometimes superset with a push-up as follows: feet on stability ball, do pushups or feet on bench and use a medicine ball under hands and do pushups (I can only do 8 of these after killing chest with peck deck)!

    well, a few months back I did the 100 pushup. I never got to the 100 at a time, but I could drop out sets of 40. I have since stopped so I have no clue where I am at the current moment. darn no I'm going to have to test myself later! :tongue:

    I've read the best thing you can do for push-ups is get off your knees. Instead, start against a wall or on a bench and work your way to the floor.

    Probably about 60 right now. Personal best was 50 reps wearing a 60lb weighted vest.

    All the way down, with proper form, zero!
    Maybe someday when I don't have as much to push up....

    None. I literally can't do them. I've tried so many times, proper ones... girly ones... can't do it. My back won't stay neutral and my arms collapse!

    Last time I tried I couldn't do any!! I've never been able to any in my entire life either.
