RE: Military Veterans of Steemit Pushup Challenge
I served in both the Marine Corps and the Army Reserve. Since I am fat and old (Just turned 57 Sunday) I will opt for the push-ups (in the Corps we did a 3-mile run, pull-ups, and situps).
Going to check the standards now for the Army.
So according to the standards for my age (57), my minimum amount of push-ups to pass is five (5) and to receive a perfect 100% score I would need to do fifty-three (53) push-ups. Well, I will give it a go.
A 56 year old male would need to do 20 pushups to receive a minimum score of 60 points. Max would be 56 pushups. The link to the chart is above in the post.
I stand corrected. Looking out the wrong eye again.
