Question of the day: How many pushups can you do? I can do about ten before exhaustion sets in. My arms start to tighten. I need a break. Bring me a sirloin steak. Okay, maybe I'm going overboard. When I was younger, I did as many as 50 pushups. That was a long time ago. Now my pushups are more like pushdowns. I know what you are going to say. There is no such word as pushdowns. Eureka, I've made up a new word.

Being slim can be a plus when doing pushups.

When I was a teenager, I weighed about 145 pounds, and was able to do about 15-20 pushups at a time.
But when I gained weight to as much as 230 pounds when I was in my twenties, I could only do about 8 pushups.
Now I weigh about 180 pounds and can do about 12 pushups.
