I think I got up to about 32 once. Having 37" arms is not an aid to pushups. The short armed little guys definitely had the advantage in the pushup category. |

Ha ha ha, now that's ****ing funny. A guy with 37" arms, what's next,
your ten feet tall. Bud your full of it from a quart down 100%. I think you got the numbers of your arms mixed up with your IQ score.

Oh heck, I can easily double or triple that. Now of course you'll need to allow me to perform these pushups 2-3 at a time and over the course of several days....... :-) |

I moved it down to mom's room a couple weeks ago as we got ready for our oldest son to visit from out west (Calgary) |
