    Auld lads bragging about world record press ups. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Give me a break, the only things being "pushed up" around here are their egos.

    You are young and unfit then? Collapse in a heep of patheticness after 2 press ups.

    I had to google what a diamond push up's were, so I guess I just do your run of the mill push up.

    But I'm tested by military physical training instructors. Those numbers wouldn't be amazing in the army, very good but not extraordinary.

    I’m almost sixty and I would be above the average in terms of fitness. I’m not so desperately insecure that I need to brag about it, though.

    Can manage 30+ before I collapse, but only with push-up bars and no time limit.

    Are people who focus on bodybuilding/strength training not able to do as many as less heavily muscular athletes or is it still more about strength than endurance?
    If you are heavier then body weight exercises are going to be more challenging for you.

    I am small..not much to lift :)

    But i can't lift heavy weights ...;)
