    Jessie.. women do not get to do it on the knees we are not weaker then you guys.. everyone starts on their knees then we progress and end up on or toes. Don't ever assume a woman is weaker just because she has lady parts.. *kitten* that, I bet I'm stronger than most of the men here.

    And on that note.. I managed 32 normal one just now and 25 military... 5 diamonds and 2 clapping before I just couldn't do it anymore.
    (good form and going all the way down, not just 90 degree elbows but laying on the floor and releasing the hands)

    Did you turn your head to the side.... to get lower??

    *slow claps*

    You did the slow clap! Not me lol.

    And you're not allowed to tell.. you can probably do a 100 military in one go... or more.. !!
    Glad to see you're still around T. Love that pic by the way.

    All of them.

    But for real - I won a push up contest last year by doing 75 in a minute.

    Someone just told me I was being arrogant and I'm very sorry if it sounds like I'm arrogant.. But honestly there are so many variations and in some I'm decent and suck at others so I just honestly wanted to know what type of push ups people refer to as push ups... To me a standard push up is a military one but once I thought the one with your arms in straight line from your shoulder was the standard so I was honestly asking what kind of push ups..

    I'm very sorry if I sounded arrogant.

    That didn't sound arrogant. That's a legit question.

    Not nearly enough. I was recently tapped to do 22 pushups for 22 days (on video) to represent my veteran brothers and sisters who commit suicide every day and was dismayed that I could not do 22 clean pushups. Soooooo, I've just downloaded an app called "Push ups: 100 push up challenge trainer free" and am going to get to the point where I can do 100 at age 53.

    It varies depending on the persons body composition and current weight. Longer arms means further distance muscle are under strain, heavier weight means greater force required to move the body. Personally if I work out chest and super set push ups in I can maybe do 10-15 to fail but with a slight warm up and not focusing on chest that day the number is probably closer to 100 mark.
