75-80 maybe more. I haven't done that many straight thru in awhile tho.

Two things you'll learn in the military is how to do pushups and how to do situps.

i haven't done a regular fukking push-up in a while, let alone one with both feet on the ground.

i've been working on handstand and knuckle push ups. i can't get past 3 hand standing :snoop: and my max for knuckles is 38.

You know what I do sometimes? I place my feet on a bench and have somebody stack several 45 lb plates on my back as I do push-ups. That shyt increases your bench press like a mug :myman:

I have posted a video on here before. But as far as push-ups, I'm not sure of my max. I know I can do a hundred easy

I graded 3 weeks ago for my orange belt/blue tip (9th Kyu) :rambo:



Part of the test, of course, is strength/conditioning :lift:

I scored the highest out of all 4 of us who were grading that day with 95 push ups. :stylin:




I could've easily done more but at that point we were barely 3/4ths of the way through the testing not to mention the final and most grueling, most dreaded portion of every grading- round after round(# varies depending on what level you are promoting to, I had to fight 10 rds) of non stop kumite(fighting); facing a different opponent/fresh body every other round or so. :sad:
(bigger kyokushin dojos will have you fighting a fresh body every round of the kumite portion of grading:sadcam:)



All of that ran through my mind during the pushups.. I hit the 80s, and it was then that I took note that I was the last man standing.. proceeded to slow up around like 90, faked exhaustion when I got to 95 so I could stop and conserve. :cool:

So. Cal
Push ups are the best workout that ANYBODY can do. You work so many muscles at once. Chest,tris,core,ect. If u arent adding them into your routine then :ufdup:

I can do about 70 straight.

is it true push ups are excellent in burning fat and building muscle?
Definitely! Much safer than weights ,btw. Finally managed 50 3 months ago. I do 50,35,30 then 30-in 2 months will be all 50. Incidentally,in a push up your chest touches the floor while your back remains straight throughout-anything else is a half push up or an outright cheat.
