How many push ups can the PDF member perform?

[jamahir]

50-60 push ups.

really??

Hehe, googled for push up tables/charts and numbers and found my old thread again

Currently at 51 proper ones.

by "proper" you mean slow and high??

 

[MarkusS]

depends. I usually can go up to 500. I do this each moring right after waking up. My personal record was by 800. But i usually don´´t do it this way because it has no training value and there are better options for cardio.

yes in one set. But i usually split it in several sets. The "high number" performance is just to show off.

You ever tried the one handed and with your legs in the air? Thats the real trick

Proper means that I go down until my arms are at a 90 degree angle to each other.

Not sure, until I hit the floor and can't get up, always make there's a pillow.

Make a video and post it here to earn your bragging rights.

exactly, it would be pointless.

You ever tried the one handed

no... and i want to learn that... but i have a long-term muscle pull in my left arm, so i am scared of over-doing something, then falling and breaking my upper arm bone... and that is why i am also scared of doing pull-ups which i used to do three sets every day.

and with your legs in the air? Thats the real trick

never even heard of it...

how does one do it??

well, that is very proper...

and how many in each set?? how many sets??

nowadays, i do one one set each time, 35 in each set, two or three times a day.

but i do have a slightly bulging chest... proud of it.

Not sure, until I hit the floor and can't get up

what demons your mind must carry to be so obsessed...

always make there's a pillow.

but the pillow must be blocking how low you can go... so you must be keeping your hands on bricks or those little stands, yes??

Yes, little handles.

51 proper ones in one go. I havent done sets in ages.. I ve just been doing one set of push ups (max) 2-3 times a day for a couple of months + the push ups which I have been doing during my MMA sessions (but only once a week). Furthermore, I have been concentrating more on cardio for the past year.

Thats why my progress has been so slow (40 in 2012 and 51 now :/) But 2015 is gonna change that
