Nah bro I'm 17 and I can do 40 push ups every 30 sec, do you have some kind of injury or health problems? or maybe you don't workout frequently... IMO it's not good to compare yourself to women and old people when you are a man. We are way more capable than them lol
Yea i got slapped real hard with that reality about 4 months ago . Two damn push ups is all i could do . Up to Three sets of ten pushups each set now . Still along way to go . Only excuse i had was that i’m 60 years old .
It feels so sad to see that people in their 20s can't do even a single pushup and I am just 15 year old and can do 50-60 pushups at a time like....easily, let's take your father's example bruh but these people.....ah shit here we go again😭
Now think about how many people can't do a single pull up! That number is so much smaller. I remember I couldn't do more than 15 push-ups or a single pull up when I was 21. But just a year after starting to train it I could do 75 and 10 respectively. People can't do them because they just aren't used to the movement, I really believe that.
Does it feel weird being the one to scream? I feel like I’d have an out of body experience being the one to deliver what I had previously been through if that makes sense
Hey, I know it's been a year but can you tell me how you train them? I assume it's based around increasing the rep of certain exercises but I can't seem to figure it out. Let's just say I'm stuck somewhere lol. I know internet has many but I want to hear it from someone like you.
@@biggSHNDO yes it does, there are actually very few drills who act like that on a daily basis. Im generally extremely calm and chill. Its all about learning how to flip a switch in a moments notice to fix any mistakes on the spot.
The daughter gave up. As soon as she didn't initially move, she cut the effort. The mom probably wasn't much stronger, but when she didn't initially move, she increased the effort to her max and moved. She gritted her teeth, her face was red, and she was shaking. The daughter didn't show any of those signs of effort.
She also let her form drop to make the movement easier though. I guarantee if you she kept her core tight she wouldnt have gotten back up. I think what really went wrong with the daughter is she went down, didnt hit the button and started going back up, realised she hadnt hit the button, tried to go back down, and by that point was just done for.
You make this sound so judgy.. xD Many humans also just aren't really comfortable in front of a camera, so at the first notice of a mistake many feel that immediate sense of shame and quit whatever they were trying to do
The best thing about this whole conversation is that a lot of the people who clown folks for not being able to do a pushup can't actually do a proper pushup themselves. Half-reppin babydoggies.
…. It is nice that you defend a group of people that are being shamed for no reason… But doing so by shaming and generalizing another group of people reduces any weight your argument could have possibly had to 0.
@kingol4801 no, it doesn't. My argument is, ultimately, that a lot of people can't do a proper pushup. That's still a fact, regardless of how I presented it. I'm not even defending anyone; both groups should learn to do a proper push up (if possible). You're just emotional.
try again, brother, this doesn't work for most people who care about push-ups Form is much more important than the number of reps, and that girl barely did 1, and with a very bad form
I once tried to show I couldn't do a pushup and ended up somehow successfully doing one, but it messed up my shoulder for a week. That lady has the wisdom from life experience I have yet to gain
Men who are not extremely overweight can usually do some push ups. Women on the othe hand, even fit women, can often not do a single push up. I was probably 14 or 15 when I found out that girls who were doing competitive sports sometimes couldn't do a single push up and it confused the hell out of me, as I thought almost everyone could do push ups. Now it makes sense, women, at average, do have 60% less upper body strength at the same weight, so push ups will be naturally harder for them.
So true, the comments are really dense for not acknowledging this. I was 17, a lower end of healthy weight who dabbled in running and yoga. So not strong, but very slim, I couldn't do one press up! Now I'm 20, I can do about 20 (ironically) since I have done strength training for almost 2 years now on and off. Still have a long way to go but, most women starting off cannot do one. A solid beginner range is about 5 with intermediate level being just under 20 reps. Anything abover 30 press ups is incredibly impressive for a woman. I've actually gained a fair bit of fat since then so it's really about the general baseline strength women have, not about being overweight/ inactive. Press ups are not easy and if youre a woman, you're not weak for not being able to do one, just untrained.
@@sarahloy2003 Your 20 push ups are already amazing. I'm a man and I can probably do between 10 and 15 right now. I never, in my whole life, explicitly trained push ups, and I used to be able to do probably 30 push ups, when I was 20. Men and women are just built differently, we need to start acknowledging that. A man who can do 30 push ups isn't amazing, but a woman is. For a man, 50 or even 60 push ups are probably on the level of 30 push ups for women.
@@sarahloy2003No, you're weak if you're not able to; You don't get to change the definitions of words to make yourself feel better; You are weak because you are untrained; Therefore, train yourself to become strong; Don't be mentally weak, either, and sugarcoat words;
I didn't see this as a sad reality. Rather, I realized how relative success is in the world of fitness. Bodybuilders get too caught up in their shape, powerlifters in their PR, athletes in their skill, etc. But to the average person, they don't see these flaws and see you as walking examples of success. It's nice to look back once in a while and celebrate even the little milestones, like that one push-up. The failures you see now are the achievements other people see.
Thing is, being able to do one pushup is the most basic of the basic stuff. It's not a milestone, it should be a starting point, and it's a shame that there are young people out there who are so goddamn weak.
@@paolomarsico607 but my point still remains: success is relative. To the disabled person with bone deficiencies, a pushup is a big achievement. To the active teenager, it's a basic skill. Fitness is not definite, and people are born with different bodies. Assigning, as how you put it, "shame" to someone because they were unable to do "basic stuff" is needlessly demeaning and counterproductive. I firmly believe that in fitness, we should celebrate discipline, not shame inability. There are different ways to be healthy, and one push-up isn't always the best indicator of health.
@@vivaleroca7511 I generally agree with you, but your argument is too often used to justify lazyness and general weakness. I dislike the modern "low expectations" fitness model where a 25 yo man gets to pat himself on the back for being able to do 5 pushups. The truth is that most of us are incredibly physically weak, even relatively to their age and health. Edit: I agree that discipline is essential, but a man's body reflects how disciplined he is, and a weak body is sign of poor discipline (when no pathologies are involved)
@@paolomarsico607No this is actually quite an objectively idiotic take. It requires a distinct lack of self awareness to project your own personal standards and lifestyle unto others, to then judge them for being inadequate at the things you have deemed important. It’s great that you find fulfillment in exercise and enjoy building discipline and work ethic through that practice. However, that does not mean that everyone else needs to be like you or they are lazy and not pushing themselves hard enough- in the direction you have dictated is best for them, mind you. It’s asinine and incredibly unhelpful, especially to people like this who are clearly pushing themselves even when they fall slightly short of your own expectations. Shame is not conducive to growth in any avenue, encouragement is. The dude you are replying to is correct that success is not only relative, but also subjective. You don’t get to set goals for someone else and then look down on them when they inevitably ‘fail,’ because you have no clue what they personally are working towards in the first place, and seemingly don’t care lol. Let people celebrate small wins and celebrate your own; if exercise were truly just about personal fulfillment and discipline for you, you shouldn’t gaf where other people are in their personal journeys with it if they even decide to utilize fitness in that same measure. So celebrate and practice minding your business when others do the same over something that seems so far beneath your expectations. Empathy truly is not that hard, bro.
Reminded me of how weak I felt when I challenge myself to do start doing pushups couple years ago. I barely did only 1. Made me reflect about myself and why I always ran away from pain. Changed my perspective forever. You don't have to feel bad for your lack of strength, you just have to be willing to do more.
Yes. Unfortunately people don’t realize how limited their community is. Same with playing chess. Maybe relative to/within chess community, average chess player is considered as “bad”. But even average chess player is better than 80% of actual human population in that one thing. Same thing with swimming, playing instruments etc. People are so pre-occupied with measuring themselves up against select few that they don’t notice how their growth elevated them against predominant majority
I didn’t realize how weak people are. I remember gym glass in middle school requiring 10 push ups at each warm up. I thought it was a basic ability, like knowing how to swim or ride a bike
I've actually been working out and recently discovered that I can now do push ups! The real ones too! Not the ones on your knees lol. I'm honestly so proud of myself 😊
Yes dude let's ignore the much better markers that a proper health care system has. People like you are amazing, just fuck all those studies because you saw a video of a couple of people not being able to do pushups right?
I can't do a pushup at 21 cause I tore my left rotator cup a year ago. But before I could do 30 easily. Rotator cuff injurys suck and basically paralyzes your arm. It sucks cause i cant do what i love anymore which is golf and bodyboarding/swimming. I gained probaly 80 lbs and completely let myself go looking like absolute crap. I can barely move my arm without pain. Some cases are permanent and I hope I can make a full recovery.
I had never done a pushup or equivalent push movement in my life. I was not overweight at all but I still couldn't do a push up when I tried, so I don't find this strange at all. After about 2 weeks of training every other day I could do 10 push-ups, so I can see why those who train even a tiny bit would find it strange that others can't do a single one.
Honestly, I think it's just physically harder for women than men. I used to be a competitive figure skater, skated twice a day 6x a week, had an off ice personal trainer and was able to do things such as multiple pistol squats in a row, yet still struggled to do one push up properly. Center of gravity and muscle mass distribution is a real thing.
I get what your saying but a push up is weight dependent so if your a girl and you weight at the same as a man then yea the man has the advantage but if the man is heavier (most men weight more then women) then it is harder for the man.
It’s easier for young girls even when they don’t intentionally exercise their upper body, in middle school the girls with literal twig arms could get at least 5. Once you’re in your 20s it gets much more difficult. 15 is impressive though. I’m 23 and can pick my 200 lb dad up off the ground, which is more than twice my weight, I can sling a camp pack that weighs as much as me onto my back, I’m a great rock climber, but I can’t do a pushup. It’s not that I’m not strong or have bad form, it’s just that the muscles I’d need to engage to do a push up aren’t enough to push-up my body weight. I can do pull-ups (which involve my back muscles and biceps/forearm and involve more of my entire body weight than push ups), but not push ups which have more to do with the triceps (back of the upper arm), pecs and abdominal muscles. I don’t really need those muscles to be as strong as the others anyways, rock climbing requires me to pull myself towards the wall and doing physical tasks in daily life doesn’t require the weaker muscles that keep me from doing a push up to be that strong
@@D1sc0rd- a person with username discord really went flexing his strength, mountain climbing, forearm strength,etc to a comment.......... from a 14 yr old girl 🗿🗿.
Tbh i dont think they are the average person, more like the average female, because they tend to be skinnier and more untrained. Males are more likely to carry heavy stuff or not be as skinny (this is my theory)
@@3suspectagb What's with all these comments shaming people for not being to do any push ups, but continuing to shame the woman even more who actually tried? No wonder people don't want to better themselves, they get ridiculed for even putting in effort.
Even though I’m a female it took me a while to realize that just one push-up is difficult for so many people 😅 I think it has to do with the fact that I had been doing sports since I was really young and also started gymnastics young
@@kidus_1010 again there is a reason- they have not gained the strength due to lack of training due to lack of knowledge on health or giving in to their natural desires to seek pleasure and avoid pain.
@@Majestic469 That’s just a cause. How they can’t do a push-up. It’s not a reason. It’s like saying there’s no reason why a healthy adult shouldn’t be able to read. Sure they may have never learned but that’s just the cause of their illiteracy not a reason why they’re illiterate. There’s just a subtle but real difference in the words.
I’m 43 YO female and I have been exercising since my early 20s and and can do push ups with no problem, decline, incline and regular… Never give up, YOU CAN DO IT!!! ❤
It does’t matter how bad you’re at your number of push ups ! , the only thing that matters is your future progresses through the hard work for improving , I sucked once too at push ups , first time when I started (1 year ago+) I was only able to do 4-6 reps with bad form , now I can go at 20 slow and clean form, and couldn’t even do pulls ups , when I learned this mindset for pushups , I am doing the same way with pull ups : I went from 0 to 3-4 clean for reps and controlled in only 2 weeks , never give up brahs ! You got this 💪
I can't understand why people are so negative towards fitness,i mean if you are fit you can do lot more than average person can,which wil ultimately give u confidence
I'm a 17 y/o girl that always wanted to do push ups since I was a little, and now I'm really proud of myself, in just couple of months (not training everyday since mid January because I started an office full time job) I was able to finally do them! :D And today I beated my record doing like 7 haha, it feels so good to just one day feel it easier and easier. Some days I can barely do 3, but then I rest and happens that the next time is easier. So idk just that, train little by little when you have the time, I hope one day I'll be at my fullest with calisthenics or sum. But just one detail, my body is thin and "athletic" so I guess that helps and makes me improve maybe faster than others and is not my case that I want to lose weight, so don't frustrate, little by little. And now I see that I wasn't of a minority of people that couldn't do push ups and had to be ashamed as I thought.
A lot of people can't do pushups, even if some of the comments here want to make it seem like it's groundbreaking to not be able to do it. Congratulations on getting stronger and being able to do a few!
@@minditris9229 I don't belive there is someone in 12-30 years, healthy and can't do push-up. I've never met anyone under 30 that can't do a push-up. Idk how about women, it's for sure harder for them, but I still know only girls that can do push-up.
@@minditris9229 true lol. Push ups are also hy products of muscle memory. If you don't keep doing them, they leave you. Lot of bodybuilders can't do push ups too. All they do is just move without making a full range of motion. So someone who has never done a push up in their life won't be able to do it at all. No matter their age, physique or gender. Men in the comments are just satisfying their ego and nothing much
We just did pushups at school today and litteraly almost everybody but me had absolutely horrible form and some couldn’t even do a knee push up with good form

@@thecrown_jul In my experience even reasonably fit women tend to have more trouble with pushups, especially if they havent trained specifically for them.
don’t just assume then, without practising how do u expect people to do it?? there’s reasons why people can’t do it and let’s be be honest, not being able to do one push up isn’t the end of the world
@@aayvuhh it means you can’t support your body weight which is pretty sad for a young person age (20-40) if you are older understandable but young people should be able to do one 😂

@@IRedBerryI to put it simply, it's just because they started younger and earlier when most people haven't even/just recently went into puberty where during that time is when most teens/kids gain their strength

You should increase your physical stats, because 1) more motivated 2) more attractive 3) stronger 4) helps to build confidence 5) healthier 6) happier 7) you meet new people, because they want to talk to you 8) smartness increases a little too 9) helping people around you physically 10) noticeable (I'm not joking, I am an introvert and really reserved to people, but somehow as soon as I started to change physically and doing the things I love and even achieving success in it, people started talking about me.)

yup. makes me wonder how many pushups people could actually do if you forced them to have perfect form. people say they could do like 20 untrained but with perfect form that's unlikely.
@@pvg9755 I remeber that in 6th grade me and the boys had to do 36 Pull-Ups in 30 seconds for an A. Me and my 2 freinds menaged to do it tho but i don't recommend it. U feel dizzy for like 20 mins straight after doing it.
All these dudes in the comments really showing their strength by besting women in upper body strength lmao Women have about 60% less upper body strength, and combined with the weight distribution of boobs, makes pushups especially difficult. I’ve been to crossfit style programs with extremely fit girls, massive thighs, very low bf %, and only about 20% could do a normal push-up. The average woman athlete can’t do a proper pushup. Most guys can do 5 even in high school. This isn’t a chance to prove your superior fitness 😅
I did my first push up at 34 and feel so proud to see my upper body grow better than before. Now I am 37 and feel so regrets not doing push up when younger.
Wtf how didn't you have to do any pushups on school, or idk like dad's are supposed to tell you to exercise, or if you are a male when you hit puberty you should want to train or at least try i mean holy shit 34 years men
I’m 180 pounds, 6’3 and 14 years old, o can do 35 push-ups in a set. That’s why we hit the gym my dude, for that one guy who will eventually ask us to do 1
When I was depressed and living a sedentary lifestyle for months, no exercise at all, I could do 17 pushups and I felt ashamed to be that weak. I can't imagine not being able to do a single push up.
Literally when I was at my weakest never ever working out just scrolling through insta and what ever playing video games and shit I could still do at least 15 it’s crazy that people can’t even do one
As a 13 yo, few months ago I could barley do one push-up, but that was only bc I was severely anemic to the point that I needed multiple blood transfusions 🙁 I’ve now gotten better, and even though I’m working on getting my strength back, I can do 10!
Fr that was me in 2020 lmao, in that moment I knew I was at my lowest point and started exercising, now I can do 10 pull ups, still weak asf but better than nothing
I’ve been exercising for a while with a family member who’s an approved PT and he has never made me touch my chest to the floor when doing a push up, he never does it himself either.
I'm in highschool and I did 50 push-ups for a physical exam 💀 That being said, I am an athelete but the fact that an average person can barely do 10 push-ups much less 1 is ridiculous.
Watch out for puberty. It tends to make women weaker… I used to be able to do pull-ups before puberty, but not a chance after…. but maybe you can keep your progress, gl.
right? Seeing videos of dumb people online answering basic questions or absolutely healthy people not doing a single push-up does wonders for your self esteem
My ass can’t do a normal push up no matter how hard I try, my form always breaks, I have to do a knee variation. Its really just a matter of training, so don’t go too hard on people. Although I think we should encourage exercise a lot more as a society, we should do so in a way that doesn’t shame people, because frankly, that pushes them away (watching everyone say what I was struggling to do was easy and I should be able to do it certainly pushed me away from trying or improving). I’m training, so I’ll be able to do a push up some day (hopefully only a week or two) it’s just strength that never gets excercised in my day to day life.
Hi there! If you’re trying to get your first push-up, I think I have a more efficient way you can go about it. The problem with the knee push-up as a regression is that you can’t really scale it - one day you’re going to have to go from knee pushups to a real push-up all at once. Instead, try inclined push-ups, where you do a push-up in regular form, but against an elevated surface like a table, counter, or if those are too hard, even a wall. This shifts more of your weight onto your legs, whereas a normal push-up places most of your bodyweight through your arms. You’ll find you can do many reps like this at some level (even just against the wall), and as you progress you can lower the elevation over time until eventually you get to the floor, at which point you’re doing regular pushups! Hope this helps some :)
This is unfortunately the sad reality. I'm considered overweight but I can easily do a push up. Yet by some standards I'm considered unhealthy because I work out regularly.
Let’s not forget that at least half of the people commenting “I can do 15 pushups, I can do 35 bla bla” are probably not even doing them correctly with the proper form, which makes a HUGE difference. Remember it is not quantity but quality that matters
ปีที่แล้ว
Yes, but when I learnt how to do push-ups, I could do more then before xd So maybe they are able to do even more
Form plays a part but u also have to do progressively harder push ups. If ur already decently strong u should move on to a new form of push up that u can only get like 10 or so reps of. Most ppl can do 15-20 normal push ups
There are so many forms for push ups some are hard some are easy but it doesn't matter they might be doing some random form correctly 15 or 35 or whatever reps straight and it's still an achievement because so many people can't do more than 3~5 push ups of the hardest correct form while the average boy who's 12~18 in my country can do at least 10 with getting hella exhausted
yep, the dumber me believed that i would be able to do 30 pushups when in reality, i could only do a little more than 10 of them in good form. When that sinked in i just started focusing on good form in everything i did and my strength increased dramatically. Most people that you just pointed out there probably know of how bad they truly are but don't want to try a littler harder to actually improve.
I always thought I was really weak because I can only do 15-20 push ups in a row max, now I am to the point I can do it for 30 seconds straight but I still thought I needed more improvement but after hearing that people can bearly do 1 push up makes me feel confident also I don’t really believe that, I think everyone can do atleast 4 in a row
ปีที่แล้ว
I think this video is not showing an average person. Just remeber your friends. Do you have some, that is not able to do one push-up? All my friends I know can do at least 10 push-ups, even overweight. There are planty of people that can do hundreds or thousand push-ups.
@Were talking about one set, meaning in a row without resting. nobody can do hundreds or thousands. Joe Rogan did 75 on his show and he's completely Roided out.
15-20 is average for a man. These are females. The military requires 30 something minimum to pass. 20 is a good starting point because you can do proper sets.
Push-ups are hard. You think you can do it, “oh that’s easy, just one?! No prob” but then when you actually try, you can’t! I’ve spent 3 months working out and I can just now this week do my first real, good form push-up. Started with pushups against the kitchen counter. When I could do 30 straight I went to knee push-ups and when I could do 20 straight of those I said hey let’s try it and I did 2… before collapsing 😂 progress is progress!
Good form (correct form) is key here. Many of the people ik irl that claimed to do "oh so many pushups" did it horribly: knees rested on the ground, or hands in the middle (easier to lift), or my favorite: only going down like a couple inches and calling it a rep. Many of the people here claiming its so easy to do 100+ would more then likely fail doing it the PROPER form way. Yea, push ups are hard lol.
In December i was able to do 10-15 push-ups in a row and now after working out for a few months, i can do 30 push-ups in a row not a massive improvement, but it's an improvement nonetheless.
I do 200 PROPER push ups (or as I call them “push Earth downs”) a day. 10 sets of 20, while doing HIT workouts every other day. Been doing this since February 2022 to present. I’m 36yo @ 6’1” weighing 188lbs with less than 14% body fat. I was over 215lbs, or technically OBESE. I’m now in the best shape of my life. It only takes a little discipline and hardcore “can do” attitude. Stay strong Kings. 👑💪🏼

Check your bank account then reevaluate
I think what really kills people when doing push-ups is their form sometimes
They are always off
Mfs looking like spiders with scoliosis
Yea, it’s not physical strength, it mostly them not being used to the movement (even if form is correct but poor form makes them harder)
Preach it! If they know how to brace their core, tighten all muscles etc. it would be easier for some I feel
So true, you could see that they both were flaring their elbows which is not good
Back in 2018, I can't do one proper push up, it's 2023 now and I can now do 40 straight proper push ups.

Everytime I feel average I'll think about people not being able to do 1 push up
Now think about how many people can't do a single pull up! That number is so much smaller. I remember I couldn't do more than 15 push-ups or a single pull up when I was 21. But just a year after starting to train it I could do 75 and 10 respectively. People can't do them because they just aren't used to the movement, I really believe that.

🗿 that mom power once they see your report card
dont be dissing the moms
As an Asian, i can relate
The daughter gave up. As soon as she didn't initially move, she cut the effort. The mom probably wasn't much stronger, but when she didn't initially move, she increased the effort to her max and moved. She gritted her teeth, her face was red, and she was shaking. The daughter didn't show any of those signs of effort.
She also let her form drop to make the movement easier though. I guarantee if you she kept her core tight she wouldnt have gotten back up.
I think what really went wrong with the daughter is she went down, didnt hit the button and started going back up, realised she hadnt hit the button, tried to go back down, and by that point was just done for.
Good Lord.
You make this sound so judgy.. xD Many humans also just aren't really comfortable in front of a camera, so at the first notice of a mistake many feel that immediate sense of shame and quit whatever they were trying to do
The mom is visibly thinner, which was the main deciding factor.
GenX knows how to push through their limits. Daughters like, if its harder than ordering a soymilk latte then I'm out.
The best thing about this whole conversation is that a lot of the people who clown folks for not being able to do a pushup can't actually do a proper pushup themselves. Half-reppin babydoggies.

It is nice that you defend a group of people that are being shamed for no reason… But doing so by shaming and generalizing another group of people reduces any weight your argument could have possibly had to 0.
@kingol4801 no, it doesn't. My argument is, ultimately, that a lot of people can't do a proper pushup. That's still a fact, regardless of how I presented it. I'm not even defending anyone; both groups should learn to do a proper push up (if possible). You're just emotional.

Men who are not extremely overweight can usually do some push ups.
Women on the othe hand, even fit women, can often not do a single push up.
I was probably 14 or 15 when I found out that girls who were doing competitive sports sometimes couldn't do a single push up and it confused the hell out of me, as I thought almost everyone could do push ups.
Now it makes sense, women, at average, do have 60% less upper body strength at the same weight, so push ups will be naturally harder for them.
So true, the comments are really dense for not acknowledging this. I was 17, a lower end of healthy weight who dabbled in running and yoga. So not strong, but very slim, I couldn't do one press up! Now I'm 20, I can do about 20 (ironically) since I have done strength training for almost 2 years now on and off. Still have a long way to go but, most women starting off cannot do one. A solid beginner range is about 5 with intermediate level being just under 20 reps. Anything abover 30 press ups is incredibly impressive for a woman. I've actually gained a fair bit of fat since then so it's really about the general baseline strength women have, not about being overweight/ inactive. Press ups are not easy and if youre a woman, you're not weak for not being able to do one, just untrained.
@@sarahloy2003 Your 20 push ups are already amazing.
I'm a man and I can probably do between 10 and 15 right now. I never, in my whole life, explicitly trained push ups, and I used to be able to do probably 30 push ups, when I was 20.
Men and women are just built differently, we need to start acknowledging that.
A man who can do 30 push ups isn't amazing, but a woman is.
For a man, 50 or even 60 push ups are probably on the level of 30 push ups for women.

I didn't see this as a sad reality. Rather, I realized how relative success is in the world of fitness. Bodybuilders get too caught up in their shape, powerlifters in their PR, athletes in their skill, etc. But to the average person, they don't see these flaws and see you as walking examples of success. It's nice to look back once in a while and celebrate even the little milestones, like that one push-up.
The failures you see now are the achievements other people see.
Thing is, being able to do one pushup is the most basic of the basic stuff. It's not a milestone, it should be a starting point, and it's a shame that there are young people out there who are so goddamn weak.
@@paolomarsico607 but my point still remains: success is relative. To the disabled person with bone deficiencies, a pushup is a big achievement. To the active teenager, it's a basic skill. Fitness is not definite, and people are born with different bodies. Assigning, as how you put it, "shame" to someone because they were unable to do "basic stuff" is needlessly demeaning and counterproductive.
I firmly believe that in fitness, we should celebrate discipline, not shame inability. There are different ways to be healthy, and one push-up isn't always the best indicator of health.
@@vivaleroca7511 I generally agree with you, but your argument is too often used to justify lazyness and general weakness. I dislike the modern "low expectations" fitness model where a 25 yo man gets to pat himself on the back for being able to do 5 pushups.
The truth is that most of us are incredibly physically weak, even relatively to their age and health.
Edit: I agree that discipline is essential, but a man's body reflects how disciplined he is, and a weak body is sign of poor discipline (when no pathologies are involved)
@@paolomarsico607No this is actually quite an objectively idiotic take. It requires a distinct lack of self awareness to project your own personal standards and lifestyle unto others, to then judge them for being inadequate at the things you have deemed important. It’s great that you find fulfillment in exercise and enjoy building discipline and work ethic through that practice. However, that does not mean that everyone else needs to be like you or they are lazy and not pushing themselves hard enough- in the direction you have dictated is best for them, mind you. It’s asinine and incredibly unhelpful, especially to people like this who are clearly pushing themselves even when they fall slightly short of your own expectations. Shame is not conducive to growth in any avenue, encouragement is. The dude you are replying to is correct that success is not only relative, but also subjective. You don’t get to set goals for someone else and then look down on them when they inevitably ‘fail,’ because you have no clue what they personally are working towards in the first place, and seemingly don’t care lol. Let people celebrate small wins and celebrate your own; if exercise were truly just about personal fulfillment and discipline for you, you shouldn’t gaf where other people are in their personal journeys with it if they even decide to utilize fitness in that same measure. So celebrate and practice minding your business when others do the same over something that seems so far beneath your expectations. Empathy truly is not that hard, bro.
Soft mentality
Reminded me of how weak I felt when I challenge myself to do start doing pushups couple years ago. I barely did only 1. Made me reflect about myself and why I always ran away from pain. Changed my perspective forever.
You don't have to feel bad for your lack of strength, you just have to be willing to do more.
"There isn't any shame in being weak. The shame is in staying weak." Captain Fuegoleon from Black Clover.
A couple years ago, I couldn't even do one. Now I can do 30 in a row with perfect form.
you pointed the exact problem with people and training nowadays the lack of motivation and will
Push ups, pull ups, dead lifts. These are a must in life
And this is why if you're trained or workout. You're stronger than most folks already
Yes.
Unfortunately people don’t realize how limited their community is.
Same with playing chess. Maybe relative to/within chess community, average chess player is considered as “bad”.
But even average chess player is better than 80% of actual human population in that one thing.
Same thing with swimming, playing instruments etc.
People are so pre-occupied with measuring themselves up against select few that they don’t notice how their growth elevated them against predominant majority
Well yes, but these people are below those who don’s work out.

Basically if people applied themselves. They can eventually become the next Mozart or Chopin or even Johnny Sins!

I can't do a pushup at 21 cause I tore my left rotator cup a year ago. But before I could do 30 easily. Rotator cuff injurys suck and basically paralyzes your arm. It sucks cause i cant do what i love anymore which is golf and bodyboarding/swimming. I gained probaly 80 lbs and completely let myself go looking like absolute crap. I can barely move my arm without pain. Some cases are permanent and I hope I can make a full recovery.
@@GolfInHawaii69 it's fine if you have a physical medical injury or reason, other than that there isn't much of an excuse
I had never done a pushup or equivalent push movement in my life. I was not overweight at all but I still couldn't do a push up when I tried, so I don't find this strange at all.
After about 2 weeks of training every other day I could do 10 push-ups, so I can see why those who train even a tiny bit would find it strange that others can't do a single one.

Honestly, I think it's just physically harder for women than men. I used to be a competitive figure skater, skated twice a day 6x a week, had an off ice personal trainer and was able to do things such as multiple pistol squats in a row, yet still struggled to do one push up properly. Center of gravity and muscle mass distribution is a real thing.
Women are just weaker
Don't think you ever really trained upper body strength
I get what your saying but a push up is weight dependent so if your a girl and you weight at the same as a man then yea the man has the advantage but if the man is heavier (most men weight more then women) then it is harder for the man.
Resistance training in general is harder for women because women aren't as strong as men, you just trained legs which don't assist much at pushups
@@KGB_DG how does men being heavier make it more equal? Upper boddy strength difference between men and women is huge!
I’m 14 girl and can do 15 even on a bad day. This makes me realize that my work actually paid of
It’s easier for young girls even when they don’t intentionally exercise their upper body, in middle school the girls with literal twig arms could get at least 5. Once you’re in your 20s it gets much more difficult. 15 is impressive though.
I’m 23 and can pick my 200 lb dad up off the ground, which is more than twice my weight, I can sling a camp pack that weighs as much as me onto my back, I’m a great rock climber, but I can’t do a pushup. It’s not that I’m not strong or have bad form, it’s just that the muscles I’d need to engage to do a push up aren’t enough to push-up my body weight. I can do pull-ups (which involve my back muscles and biceps/forearm and involve more of my entire body weight than push ups), but not push ups which have more to do with the triceps (back of the upper arm), pecs and abdominal muscles. I don’t really need those muscles to be as strong as the others anyways, rock climbing requires me to pull myself towards the wall and doing physical tasks in daily life doesn’t require the weaker muscles that keep me from doing a push up to be that strong

I’m 180 pounds, 6’3 and 14 years old, o can do 35 push-ups in a set. That’s why we hit the gym my dude, for that one guy who will eventually ask us to do 1

You can't expect someone to push a button that's placed between breasts. That's really difficult even for people who can do pushups.
Its not 💀 its just a normal push up. Chest to the floor and up again
@@El-Paptron7 no not chest to floor but close like 1-2 inches off the floor but touching is not correct
Because then you are basically on the floor
@@massacrematt4613 the size of the button would be 1-2 inches off the floor
It’s not at all let’s not lie now

Bro asked only women after one guy refused lol.
He asked a woman at the beginning and she too rejected him. You’re just making scenarios that’s all
@@Hbdjk552 Which were literally the closest people to him.
@@Hbdjk552point being your average guy could def do a pushup. Your average woman may have never done one in her life

Your mom when she found out about your exam test result: *immeasurable* amount of push ups
Rn, I'm in the expert level with 67
20 push-ups isn’t beginners that’s actually really good if your doing it properly
As a ballet dancer my legs r pretty strong….Can I do a push up tho? Naw ☠️
Ballet trains legs not arms afaik
Realizing how much people can’t do push ups, I feel better about my self cause I can do 50 in a row
When I was depressed and living a sedentary lifestyle for months, no exercise at all, I could do 17 pushups and I felt ashamed to be that weak. I can't imagine not being able to do a single push up.
He was asking women, women have significantly less muscle mass on their upper body compared to men.
Literally when I was at my weakest never ever working out just scrolling through insta and what ever playing video games and shit I could still do at least 15 it’s crazy that people can’t even do one
@@andyyhimselfhe asked a man??? Bro said he couldn’t…
@@irelix8057 he looked capable, but also looked like he couldn’t care less lol
@@andyyhimself That's not a fucking excuse? lmao, the video isn't called "Can the AVERAGE man do ONE Push-Up??"
I watched this and then did 20 diamond pushups out of disappointment towards those people
Hell yeah brother. Put that work in💪🏾
I'm also going to do some pushups for these people. Hold on a sec.
Nailed it.
Ill do 100
As a 13 yo, few months ago I could barley do one push-up, but that was only bc I was severely anemic to the point that I needed multiple blood transfusions 🙁
I’ve now gotten better, and even though I’m working on getting my strength back, I can do 10!
That's awesome!
Ask your doctor if it's okay for you to practice calisthenics, it really improves your strength and health.
compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today
Fr that was me in 2020 lmao, in that moment I knew I was at my lowest point and started exercising, now I can do 10 pull ups, still weak asf but better than nothing
Three years ago, I collapsed at 8 reps. In 2023, I can do minimum 27, possibly more and I don't wanna jinx it! 💪
Sorry but that is not good progress for 3 years.
@@monke5198 For you.
@@monke5198any progress is good progress, we aren't chasing KPI in the fitness community
@@monke5198atleast he progressed
dude im almost 200 lbs and did 40 push-ups consecutively and i don't even workout or anything. i PROMISE i aint lying either
I’ve been exercising for a while with a family member who’s an approved PT and he has never made me touch my chest to the floor when doing a push up, he never does it himself either.
Not necessary. Just use push up bars and you get a better range of motion
CrossFitter spotted.
even they’ve failed atleast they’re still tried
I'm in highschool and I did 50 push-ups for a physical exam 💀
That being said, I am an athelete but the fact that an average person can barely do 10 push-ups much less 1 is ridiculous.
Happy to see there are still good women left in the world ❤
What, the ones that can’t do a push up?
I’m 12 and can do 10. This is just making me feel better about all the time I’ve spent training. I’m going to get into chelsea women’s one day.
Go for it!
@@FeatherWait thanks for the motivation, and i will! Cheers mate!
Watch out for puberty. It tends to make women weaker… I used to be able to do pull-ups before puberty, but not a chance after…. but maybe you can keep your progress, gl.
I feel so much better about myself, thank you!
Mom showed her daughter shes the alpha women❤ it felt ao wholesome
Suddenly, I feel so much better about myself. Thanks!
right? Seeing videos of dumb people online answering basic questions or absolutely healthy people not doing a single push-up does wonders for your self esteem
@@VinyZikss f’n A, brother!!
Let's go
Kim for the W
I did 80 last week. I didn’t realize how special that was
My ass can’t do a normal push up no matter how hard I try, my form always breaks, I have to do a knee variation. Its really just a matter of training, so don’t go too hard on people. Although I think we should encourage exercise a lot more as a society, we should do so in a way that doesn’t shame people, because frankly, that pushes them away (watching everyone say what I was struggling to do was easy and I should be able to do it certainly pushed me away from trying or improving). I’m training, so I’ll be able to do a push up some day (hopefully only a week or two) it’s just strength that never gets excercised in my day to day life.
Hi there! If you’re trying to get your first push-up, I think I have a more efficient way you can go about it. The problem with the knee push-up as a regression is that you can’t really scale it - one day you’re going to have to go from knee pushups to a real push-up all at once. Instead, try inclined push-ups, where you do a push-up in regular form, but against an elevated surface like a table, counter, or if those are too hard, even a wall. This shifts more of your weight onto your legs, whereas a normal push-up places most of your bodyweight through your arms. You’ll find you can do many reps like this at some level (even just against the wall), and as you progress you can lower the elevation over time until eventually you get to the floor, at which point you’re doing regular pushups! Hope this helps some :)
@@caleb7882 thank you for the advice! I’ll have to try it out!
Woman: it kills my shoulders
Also woman: Heads back home, puts on her athlete clothes and proceed to perform 100 pull ups in a row
And then 100 handstand pushups 💀
?
@@ABC-ik9vjI don't get it either lol
This is unfortunately the sad reality. I'm considered overweight but I can easily do a push up. Yet by some standards I'm considered unhealthy because I work out regularly.
This (the vid) isn’t a sad reality.
respect for trying, hope this helps them realize tho, everybody should be able to do at least one tbh
Let’s not forget that at least half of the people commenting “I can do 15 pushups, I can do 35 bla bla” are probably not even doing them correctly with the proper form, which makes a HUGE difference. Remember it is not quantity but quality that matters
Yes, but when I learnt how to do push-ups, I could do more then before xd
So maybe they are able to do even more
Form plays a part but u also have to do progressively harder push ups. If ur already decently strong u should move on to a new form of push up that u can only get like 10 or so reps of. Most ppl can do 15-20 normal push ups
There are so many forms for push ups some are hard some are easy but it doesn't matter they might be doing some random form correctly 15 or 35 or whatever reps straight and it's still an achievement because so many people can't do more than 3~5 push ups of the hardest correct form while the average boy who's 12~18 in my country can do at least 10 with getting hella exhausted
um no, we just arent weak as fuck like the sad excuses of life shown in the video
yep, the dumber me believed that i would be able to do 30 pushups when in reality, i could only do a little more than 10 of them in good form. When that sinked in i just started focusing on good form in everything i did and my strength increased dramatically. Most people that you just pointed out there probably know of how bad they truly are but don't want to try a littler harder to actually improve.
I always thought I was really weak because I can only do 15-20 push ups in a row max, now I am to the point I can do it for 30 seconds straight but I still thought I needed more improvement but after hearing that people can bearly do 1 push up makes me feel confident also I don’t really believe that, I think everyone can do atleast 4 in a row
I think this video is not showing an average person. Just remeber your friends. Do you have some, that is not able to do one push-up? All my friends I know can do at least 10 push-ups, even overweight. There are planty of people that can do hundreds or thousand push-ups.
@Were talking about one set, meaning in a row without resting. nobody can do hundreds or thousands. Joe Rogan did 75 on his show and he's completely Roided out.
15-20 is average for a man. These are females. The military requires 30 something minimum to pass. 20 is a good starting point because you can do proper sets.
Push-ups are hard. You think you can do it, “oh that’s easy, just one?! No prob” but then when you actually try, you can’t! I’ve spent 3 months working out and I can just now this week do my first real, good form push-up.
Started with pushups against the kitchen counter. When I could do 30 straight I went to knee push-ups and when I could do 20 straight of those I said hey let’s try it and I did 2… before collapsing 😂 progress is progress!
Good form (correct form) is key here. Many of the people ik irl that claimed to do "oh so many pushups" did it horribly: knees rested on the ground, or hands in the middle (easier to lift), or my favorite: only going down like a couple inches and calling it a rep. Many of the people here claiming its so easy to do 100+ would more then likely fail doing it the PROPER form way.
Yea, push ups are hard lol.
Quality over quantity
everyone has their own process, you could still be doing knee push ups, that’s okay, as long as your in the journey, ready to take the next step
Any healthy person can do a push up, don’t let your mind trick you into thinking you can’t because you can.
if those are "average" people then I'm John Cena
Its crazy how weak the average person is
The guy that’s talking,CAN HE DO IT?
So is that why in horror movies when they fall that's why they just don't get and run ??? Not because they are hurt but weak ASF omg lmao 🤣😭💀
In December i was able to do 10-15 push-ups in a row and now after working out for a few months, i can do 30 push-ups in a row not a massive improvement, but it's an improvement nonetheless.
It's just few months bro, it's good progress
That mum is so badass. That was a legitimately clean push up.
no it wasnt
That was not at all a clean push up
That was not clean
This makes me feel amazing
I tried to smile while watching this but I can't shake the fact that this is so fucking sad. Damn...
I do 200 PROPER push ups (or as I call them “push Earth downs”) a day. 10 sets of 20, while doing HIT workouts every other day. Been doing this since February 2022 to present. I’m 36yo @ 6’1” weighing 188lbs with less than 14% body fat.
I was over 215lbs, or technically OBESE.
I’m now in the best shape of my life. It only takes a little discipline and hardcore “can do” attitude. Stay strong Kings. 👑💪🏼
Let's go king keep at it man 💪🏽🙏🏾
If you can do 200 push up, you should do harder forms for intensity
