The ONE MINUTE PUSH-UP test! The Push-Up Test measures muscular strength and endurance. Are you up for the challenge? Goal: Do as many push ups as you can in one minute. Execution: Men will assume a traditional push-up position and females can use the modified push-up position (on knees). When the push ups start, so does the clock! Of course females can do the traditional push-ups as well. Push yourself up with arms fully extended and lower yourself back until your chest is three inches from the floor (but do not touch your body to the floor). This is roughly when the elbows are at 90 degrees. Repeat as many times as you can in one minute. You may rest only in the “up” position if necessary. What does this measures? Strength and endurance in your chest, shoulders, and triceps. POST BELOW How many push ups you did in 1 minute and rate yourself according to the chart.
