    Well at my gym the rule is if you are late you have to do 100 push ups before you can join everyone else. So for a while there I was doing 100 a day before training...not including the ones we did in training. :patsch

    :yikes I guess you learn not to be late after few additionl hundreds. I remember when my bball couch penalized us with 30 pushups for swearing, I could barely shoot at the basket after few "nahuj" :dead

    I like pushups.
    I used to do so many when I was in officer's training school.
    Now I can probably do 40.

    Fully-rested I can do 50 in one set. If I get off-track for awhile and do them after I haven't done them in a while, I can still usually bang out about 30-35. One of my goals fro 2008 is to be able to do 100 in one set.

    I agree. And I'm not trying to be all condescending like "wow that's good for a girl" (besides, you can do more than me), because I know a lot of girls who can't do them at all.

    I can hit about 100 on a good day.
    Maybe 80ish on a normal day.

    OO.. That reminds me of my amateur wrestling coach who said that he avaraged 2.3 pushups in a minute in some army drill where they had to do as much pushups in a minute that hey can. I was like are you ****ing shitting me. He was a HW too btw :D. But he is russians and they train like machines.

    I usually do them in sets, but can manage around 40 at the moment in one go.
