38 IN 30 seconds. PB is 43.

I avoid 1 handers because of previous shoulder injuries.

Normally 40-60 non stop every 1-2 days to keep fit. Doing them slow and controlled ensures you work all the muscle fibres, not just the fast twitch ones. Just had to add that...

Pushups are good:tup:

I'm 1.93 mts. 115 kilos... I can do half a pushup. Meaning I can go down but can't come back up :)
 
That's because you're not pacing yourself, you're going too fast and knackering yourself too fast. I used to be able to do 90+ pressups in one go, but the key word is used to, I struggle at 30 now.
 
Darn... missed this challenge by about ten years.

I used to be able to do 100 straight in high school, get up, drop to the ground again and do 100 more.

Now I struggle to do twenty. Life sucks when you're fat.
 
6'1'' (ca 186cm)

i managed 23 with 2 hands in 30seconds, it could have been a lot better, but i'm out of shape.... i really need to start training again!!
i can't do a single one with one hand, i just CAN'T. any tips??

But to be sure that Iam making push ups right I touch the floor with my nose very gently.
Can't complain about my body specs, 184cm /6,1'' / 86kg 190 pounds but no fat. (Made the fat-test here some months ago)

THe funny thing is that my left arm makes funny noises while doing push-ups..

But my specs will be much better after I served in the army for 6 months.:scared:
