>tfw literally lack the upper body strength to do one (1) "real pushup"
>literally cannot "bench" my bodyweight

Is it better to do reps and sets, or just go for as many as you can in one go? What's better for improvement?

Can do more than 100, sets of 10.
Takes about a month, you need to spread them out over a few hours so you don't get fatigued tho.

>>34429853
I can do 30. Do two sets of pushups a day and you will probably get to 100 in around two months.

>>34429853
Pull up master race OP.
Anyway, I can do about 30. Yet I can actually lift a little more than my body weight (around 160-165 lbs last I lifted).

do tricep dips after push ups... great burn :p

>>34429853
5'10"
180 pounds
12 push-ups

I wish I gave a fuck about these things but I don't do I'll remain fat forever.

I will try to keep at it then.

>>34429942
Yeah, I'm taking it slow. But a pull up bar seems like a nice investment

>literally cannot "bench" my bodyweight

I can't bench my weight, not even close. 171lbs, I can do 80lbs pretty consistently of 3x10. I've been lifting for about two months now. should I just give up?

I've never tried to go until failure, but yesterday I hit 30 and pumped out another 5, so 35 in one go.

Thing is though, after doing 30-35 in a set, I'm fucking spent, I'm not out of breath or anything but my next set is going to be like 20 max, then probably 15 at most after that. I guess my muscles get fatigued quickly is the thing.

Also depends on how quick I do them, that set of 35 was with me pushing them out quicker, still went all the way down and back up, but if I did them slower it would probably be 25-30 max.

5'7 180lbs male.

Same here two bee H except for me it's 5x3

The problem is you can't do pushups EVERY DAY unless you are also doing a full body workout. You will strain your pecs after a week.

My max is 3x10 of 90 lb and I weigh 153 lb.

I can only do 15 but I'm 6'3 and have proportionately long limbs which works against me.

NEVAH GIVE UP

Definitely a nice investment. If you want to maximize dem gains then you might want to do both. I'm working on my push ups but pull ups I can easily knock out 50 in one go, 60 if I try that much. And before someone calls me Chad, I'm still a skinny dude at 147 lbs and 5'8. Just have to keep at it OP. At least you're actually trying.

>>34429882
This used to be me.if you really wanna get fit do ten sets of girl push ups 5 days a week till you can do real push ups.do as many girl push ups as you can each set.within a month or so you should be able to do at least some push ups

>>34430074
I will just bee my self and nothing can stop me! :^)

>>34430079
Yeah, I will try and reach the 100 dream

is the "can't even______ your own weight" a /fit/ meme or is it a legit critique of your training or methods.

I can only deadlift my own weight consistently, everything else I'm miles off achieving.

>>34429853
About 70 in 2 minutes, according to my last PRT.

so does this also double as a push up thread?

>>34430079
add dips my friend.
Dips are the goat exercise

>I've had enough of my skinny arms.

push ups barely work arms. you should do tricep and bicep curls to build arms. you should just set up a work out routine. also, getting big is mostly about your diet anyway.

havent tested how many i can do in a while but probs about 40 - 50.

>>34429853
I used to do 50 push-ups in a row everyday as an exercise before bed. After about four moths of doing it I tried to do a hundred and succeeded. It was hard as fuck after about 75 but man, that was a fun thing. (14 at the time, and was a Brad back then)

depends on the exercise. obviously not being stuff like not being able to shoulder press your weight isnt bad at all

>I can only deadlift my own weight consistently, everything else I'm miles off achieving.

even people who dont lift can usually dead lift their own weight. dead lifting twice your weight should be your goal.

77 in 1 minute senpai
5'9 180 lbs, was 198 pounds before i injured my shoulder and had a personal best of benching 325lbs... Since then i've gone down to 225 lbs

>>34430586
I cant even deadlift the fucking bar, Chad.

>>34429853
roll for number of pushups

6,1 190 35 pushups... So terrible. I can bench 85 kg though?...

>>34429853
idk, never tried to max out. I chest press 3 times a week so doing push ups kind of wastes my upper body strength, i feel.

I think the most I ever did was like 35 but I got bored and stopped, I could have done more.
