How Many Pushups Can You Do?

[Xrysthos]

Used to be able to do about 50 when I was in shape, but now I guess I'd be able to do about 20, maybe 30. I'd probably die if I tried running even one mile though. So if it comes down to fight or flight, I really don't have an option, which makes me terribly ill suited to repel zombie invasions.

Edit: But my melee character in KotOR has almost 40 strength, which in D&D terms would make me able to lift a truck!

Pushups: Around 40 is when I start to collapse.
Leg Press: I never tried seeing how much I could do in one rep, but I found 125 pathetically easy for me. Never wanted to push it to 225, thought it would be bad if I screwed up.
Squat: I don't squat. Ever. I hate squats.
Bench Press: I could do 135 with one rep, but I mostly trained at 95.
Miles: I'm not an endurance person, so I tire out from sprinting at around 500 yards, which is 1/10th of a mile. Jogging, I could probably hit 3/4 of a mile before needing to walk. I don't jog, to say the least.
Pullups: 0.

I have a lot of dead weight on me, so I can't do cardio nearly as highly as strength training, and I can't do a pullup for my life. I have good arm strength, though. I could pull around 140 pounds using my shoulders alone.

Well I've never been too good at doing pushups (Or most sports for that matter...*Sigh*) so I might as well give doing ONE of those damn things a try.

Nope not a single one, situps on the other hand...I did 40 then I got tired.

5 8D I rock.

I regularly go to the gym and one timed challenge I do involves running 3 miles, doing 225 situps and 225 pushups, so far i've cut it down to 45 mins

Push ups. 10. I have very weak arms. Got good shoulders but my arms just buckle. I'm working on them though. Sit ups are my thing I can do about 50-60 in a sitting then after 3 minutes I can do them again.

 

[Strykz]

Uh, is it bad if I can't do a single one?

 

[chromewarriorXIII]

Uhh... let's see. *Gets up from desk and stretches a bit*

About 15, although on a good day, more like 20. Not great, but not bad either.

As for how many miles I can run, probably about 1.

 

[The Fork of Truth]

Exactly 40 before serious discomfort/tight-chestedness sets in. Could probably push myself to 50 on a good day.

EDIT: That is, if I've been doing 'proper' push-ups. I honestly have no idea.

 

[PixieFace]

Belgh. About 40 before I start f'ing up. I need to start working on toning my arms again. I am too scrawny.

I may not be that strong, but I am very flexible! The perks of being a dancer all my life. =)

 

[KimberlyGoreHound]

I can probably do 15 or 20 pushups at one time, if I'm really lucky. After that, my arms are pooped.

My 40-yard dash is slow. I can run for quite a while though. No idea how much I can leg press, but it's well over 200lbs. My arms are very weak, but my legs are deadly.

 

[alligabbi]

Chinups: 55 with kipping, 15-20 without
Pushups: 70-80 fast, 50 slow, 5 one handed - rocky

I'm a bit of a fitness geek.

 

[Sir Thomas Sean Connery]

Err...... 1? If I'm lucky?

 

[Lyx]

about 30 - thats long ones, rather than quick ones. Could probably go to 40-50, but would then be highly exhausted.

 

[Hap2]

I prefer to do 50 in one go, and then I take a minute break and do another 50, and so on and so forth. I have never tried to see how far I can go doing this, but now, this thread has kind of gotten me interested in doing so.
