How many push ups can you do?

1

If you can do more than 20 strict push ups in a row, then you should move on to a higher progression like archer pushups, weighted pushups, pseudo planche push ups, one arm pushups, tuck planche push ups... and/or all of the above but on gymnastic rings (to improve stabilizers). You can change the leverage of your body to change the difficulty level on almost all of the above.

Generally we want:

1-4 reps for strength.
6-12 reps for hypertrophy.
30+ reps for endurance.

Also make sure your form is good, and try to use the full range of motion when you can (with many exceptions such as squat depth and dips, where you should only go down to parallel). Don't get injured.

Are you Jackie chan in disguise? :)

Funny true story.

In my gym spa Bahria town Islamabad. There is a core of people who work out on heavy weights every day and would make fun of me doing calisthenics. So one day I said I bet you cant do 25 burpees. They took up the challenge laughing in my face. But the burpees where u lie flat a s let go of your hands and start from zero. Onle one of them managed 7.
Never made fun of me again looool
 
5x2 push up every other day
 
When I stopped practice I could done 60, now again I am starting practice, currently 40, but it will increase with gradually practice.
