how many pushups can you do?

[joekerr31]

just curious, how many pushups can you guys do in one go?

im 32, 200lbs, and able to do 65 in one shot.

apparently the 'average' for a male my age is 13-24, that seems a bit low to me.

 

[KontrollerX]

Ha.

Probably not even one for me at this point man.

Thats why I begin hell month in October starting today when I wake up.

Viscious cardio every day I will work and will myself back into shape!

 

[movistar]

I'm 36 and can do around 45. Also 200lbs

 

[Visions007]

6'3" 195 pounds. did 71 two days ago in one shot. my personal goal is to get to 100 pushups and 30 pull ups. always start my chest day with max push ups as my warm up.

 

[Mr.Positive]

Pretty good guys..the most I've done is 55 in one minute without stopping.

The most I've done in one sitting is the pyramid, start at 1 pushup. Stop, do 2 pushups, keep adding 1 until you reach 20 pushups, then work your way back down. That's like 400 pushups total, however it takes at least 30 minutes to finish.

I'm 5'10, 185lbs.

50 REAL pushup's (Military style) I could do more if they are half ass'd.

 

[Aspiring_DJ]

What I like to do is do one pushup, then get on my knees and do a bench press motion with my hands in the air ( looks like raise the roof). Then do two more pushups then two of those things. etc. Keep increasing til u cant do any more. It sounds easy but when u get to 5 your like wow.

When I was 150 lbs I could do over 50 one armed pushups in one go.

I'm out of shape now though, I can only do 200 real pushups in one shot.

Nice, I'll try that with my dumbells right now see how many I can get

 

[Monkey]

About 15 max, but then I've always been sh!te at pushups.

 

[spesmilitis]

for some reason I read pull ups, the results surprised me

when I was 15-16 and 90-100 lbs, I could do 100 push ups.

 

[The Inside Man]

about 60...I weigh 180 pounds.

 

[SinJester]

I'm a measly 121 pounds (had to convert it from kilo just for you guys) and could do 50 in a row not long ago. Amazed all my friends becasue it was way more than any of them could do. Probably something to do with my puny weight.

 

[Reyaj]

Id love to see how all you do these push ups.

My gut tells me half of you dont have proper form....

I agree Jayer. Not trying to knock you guys lol but c'mon. You would think we are dealing with a group of world class athletes here with as many pushups as they say then can do. I know that I'm in excellent shape. Play sports every day, lift 3 times a week, and 60 QUALITY pushups for me at one time is pushing it. I've seen most of the people out there in this world.....they aren't in shape...and that's being polite.

Here's a pic to prove I am not out of shape in the least.

I do around 45 tops, and they're decent, nose to ground push ups. I'm 16, 5'9 and only 150 pounds.

 

[MrS]

When I was in training I could do about 100.
Now, it's more like 40-50.

 

[mrRuckus]

[Python]
