How Fit Do You Think You Are?

I did this test a long time ago to see how strong my upper body strength really was. It tells you how fitness rating based on how many pushups you can do in a minute or until you can’t do any more. I call it the pushup test. I first tried doing it after lifting heavy for about 3 months with little cardio. It’s been about 6 years since then and I wanted to compare my results. 

Chart for Pushup Test

The pushup test is an easy DIY measure of your current fitness level that requires a timer. I used my smartphone for the new video and has someone help the first time around. If you are a female, the results are based on modified pushups so if you want to do them on your knees, you’ll have a better chart to compare yourself on. Here is the new video showing me complete the challenge:

Here is the old one from 2009!

    I did 37! I surprised myself, and am quite proud! Can’t wait to keep getting stronger and see the number go up though!

    It’s interesting that women are judged based on modified push-ups… any reason why?

      I was thinking the same thing. Little biased. Women should be held to the same form accountability as men. I don’t think a modified pushup shows any real fitness capability whatsoever.

        That was the 1st thing I noticed is that we are based on the modified version, I did the modified version when I 1st started working out a year ago and couldn’t do a full push up, I can now do full push ups, I wonder how that chart would look in #’s.

    I’m offended they don’t think girls can do full push ups.

    It’s interesting that they chose push ups. I think it is one of the top exercises that people (both men and women) struggle with good form.

    I’ll have to try this later. It looks like I’m the only one who is thrilled that this is based on modified push-ups! I can’t do a full push-up to save my life.
