How many Push-Ups can you do? (Pic of the most perfectly developed man ever inside!)

In a row...hmm, maybe 35. Last year when I worked out more regularly it would have been closer to 60 maybe...I was never good at push ups or chin ups (they're horrible...)

I can do about 60 in a minute without breaks.

In 5 minutes I don't know.

I run a lot near the house, try to stay fairly lean.

I can do lots of pushups; normally I'm around 120 a day. (4x25 of normal, plus 2x10 of the more esoteric types.) How I wish I had somewhere to do pullups. Supposely as a last resort one can use an open door. But I don't trust the flimsy wooden Japanese doors in my house. Nor are the walls all that sturdy. Lastly, my house has many sliding doors, whose frames will never work with any sort of apparatus. I've taken it as a sign from God he doesn't want me to do pull ups.

lol, go to a park...they're everywhere. Just remember to go when the kids leave, pullups leave you very vulnerable to kancho attacks.

I do 20 pyramid sets of 50 regular push ups, wide push ups, tricep push ups on both a level and varying incline platform with a backpack weighing 20% of my total weight and a 15 pound weight belt with only a 20 second break between sets. I do this routine about three days every single week too.

Just for regular exercise I do about 30. If I wanted to I suppose could do 50 in one go. I've been doing the "plank" lately. On floor, up on elbows, straight body holding for 60 seconds. I wonder how those hold, strain to failure exercises compare to movement ones like pushups for fitness.
