how many pushups can you do (21)

1 Name: Anonymous : 2008-01-25 01:16 ID:+BaRF86O

the Paramedic course here requires applicants to do 30 in a minute.

I did 30 in 27 secs.

Is that a new CPR technique or something, doing pushups on people in cardiac arrest?

I like doing clapping push-ups. I usually do like 20 and then stop, though.

40-50 and after a short pause another 30-40.

Despite looking quite muscular (I have no idea why), I can only do 20 or so push-ups before I get tired and stop.

Anyone can do fast pushups, try doing 10 over the course of 10 minutes. That requires both physical conditioning and breath/relaxation control.

I do 4 sets of 25 every morning, with about 30 to 45 seconds rest in between sets. The last two sets are not easy for me to do. I would like to be able to do more, but it hasn't gotten any easier after about a month of this...

The question is not how many I can do, but why I should do any. So long as I have enough strength to walk to my car and to lift my laptop, I have no use for additional muscle.

I used to do 5 with great pain, not so long ago. I'm training now, and can do streaks of 10 without too much difficulty.

I know I'm far from anything not ridiculous, but that's okay with me. That means there's lots of room for improvement, and I'm motivated.

That sounds fine. Your body knows how many are enough, I think. You can increase the number as they become easier to do.

Back when I exercised regularly, I remember when I first started out I quickly progressed and then hit a "soft cap" at around sets of 25, it took me a long time to be able to do 30 without dying.

I started off doing four sets of 15. At the end of the month, I could do 10 sets of 15.

I can do around 20 normally, but if there is a female under me that increases to 120.

The /b/tard in me says OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAND!!!
But the serious side says about twenty-five or so. I'm more of a cardio guy, not so much upper-body strength.

Please, take that /b/tard in you out to the lake and drown him.
