If at all possible

From cold how many press ups can you do?Whats your age and weight?

Please dont pretend to be the worlds fittest as we WONT beleive you

 

Well..
When i started my diet regime and weighed 17st 2lb i couldnt do 5 if im honest...

Now i can do 2 sets of 25 before bed with around 1 mins break in between..

Im 32 and weigh in now at 14stone 4lb.....

 

Why!?

And why would anyone want to risk injuring themselves doing as many press-ups as possible without a warm-up first?

 

about 15 im 6'2" arround 13st and im 21

 

up to 85-100 a night at the moment

when i first started i struggled to get 10

23

&

12-13

sorry forgot to say i have a break around 50 to do situp's

 

About 50 in one go from cold - limiting factor is my wrists hurting - 28y/o, 14st 7lb, 6 foot and gym 3 times a week.

 

Is that in one go? surely it cant be! id DIE if i did more than 20 id have to change to 'girly' pressups where you kneel down

 

I do Circuit Training once a week

I'm just under 13 stone and 6 foot, age 26

i can do 40 from cold with no breaks......but during an hours class probably do a hundred or so with the same amount of situps, crunches, squats blah blah blah

I was crap when I started tho! Took about 4 weeks to get into it and keep up with the rest.....just old injuries that stop me doing it more often

 

and 9 foot 6

 

yeah phil forgot i added after wards i take a break at 50 to do situp's

i was shocked when i started doing them ages and ages ago that i struggled to do 10

 

i done 10 once

im 23, 12st 9 6' tall

 

what are we talking here

define a press up???

if you think a pressup is when you nose or gut touches the ground your wrong

arm's at right angles is a press-up

 

oh really,,,girlie ones ay,,,,pmsl

From cold it kills me, can do around 20 then have to change to something else though to give those poor wrists a rest for abit,,,lmao

I also get bored of doing them too,,,,,and I DON'T kneel down to do them either

I'm 25 and weight is around 7 & 1/2 stonne!!

fpmsl @ smit,,,,,

x x x

 

YOU BIG

 

yea.. 15 max i reckon...

 

1: Fuck all
2: 27 (holding on in there)
3: 11 stone ish, depending on whether I'm weighing myself before or after a weekend.

HTH lol

 

fook ya then

believe what ya want

 

I could do em all day too if i was 7 1/2 stone

 

Ryan...like your salary you once said you had..BOLLOCKS

Ian.....i do em from cold..well i shake my arms about a bit first!

Interested to know....i can do 30 outright and weigh 14.5 stone 5ft 11

Apparently if you can do 40 plus outright you are very strong!

Weak is under 24...normal is 25 to 40

I come out of retirement re training recently and do 40 pressups a day along with 400 sit ups via that ab bar thing that dont fuck the back ...plus use a cross trainer.........

 

Any1 could probably could lift Nikki up with 1 arm

 

RYAN...i take that back...i just done 50 using your method Is that really the correct way?Cause i been doin it the hard way it seems

 

I aint done none for ages, but last time was like 2 years ago (so 22) and did 50, at 2am infront of the bar in the local club, whilst pissed as a twat, in order to obtain a carry out

 

once i get to ten i need a spliff

 

I can do about 5 then collapse and feel like im dying

24
6"4
17.5st

 

lol - just thinking about it I need one!

 

Wounder!

 

thinking about it i would class myself as reasonably strong.. as i can bench press a fair amount.. (more than most of my mates) but i can only do it a coupple of times im propper knackered afterwards!

 

You callin me fat

Tis all muscle

 

Obviously just not yours

 

How much of your body weight do you actually lift when doing press ups?As i am sure i couldnt bench press 14.5 stone 50 times

 

LMAO well your arms actually don't have a great deal to do with it it's more chest/shoulders......unless you're doing "Ryan style press-ups" If you're actually doing the press-ups until failure then you risk injury by not warming up first.

That is a rather misleading thing to say as there are 2 types of muscle fiber IIRC(power & endurance respectively). So if you have alot of Type 1 & not many of the Type 2 (ie. by genetics) then you will never be able to do a huge number of press-ups/whatever in comparison to someone who has loads of Type 2 & not many Type 1.

What a gimmicky pile of shit they are

 

Phil, Ryans way is for 's The further you go down the more of the muscle you use.

I would try but I went fooken extra in the gym on my chest last night and can barely move now, pmsl

 

so there is actually some founding behind my excuse then!

 

Ian....they WORK.....i couldnt to sit ups thru lower back pains!This contraption allows me to work just the stomach muscles and boy does it feel like it works...i got a bit of a beer gut but its rock hard past the flab

 

Just did 70 from cold in one minute and got bored. LOL Any help to you?

I'm 5ft 7, just under 12 stone and not 30 yet.

 

Didn't realise you had back problems mate, actually wasn't aware that it allowed people with existing back problems to do sit ups. When I tried one it felt like I was doing fuck all with my abs. In general people without back problems should just do crunches, you won't get back problems if you do 'em properly

 

Yes mate

 

pmsl and did u get then

 

Ian...what i meant was if i did sit ups it would cause severe lower back pains...maybe i have a dodgy back?...BUT this thing is so good you can feel just the abs working,your lower back doesnt move!

 

Crunches for working abdominals, situps to work hip flexor muscle groups.
