Here, I'll start:

AGE: 13

TOTAL PUSHUPS: ~90-100

TOTAL SITUPS: Never tried, but I know it's over 100

TOTAL PULL-UPS (CHIN UPS):~ 30 (maybe more)

BODY FAT PERCENTAGE: According to the Navy, I'm ~7-8% body fat :)


See, I'm strong :))))



Either you lie, or I'm extremely impressed.


 He is probably one of those kids that bends at the waist and uses their knees. The only guy I knew who could maybe do that could also do 1 handed pushups and worked out like crazy.

It also helps that he is 13, with 7-8% body fat, and probably weighs less than 90lb. I could probably put him above my head without to much of a problem.

 Anyways, back when I was 18 and I exercised regularly I could do
Push ups -  30-40
Situps - never did any, did crunches instead
Pull ups - ~40
Body Fat - ~%15

Now it looks more like (at 24)
Push  ups -  20-30
Situps - still never do them
Pull ups - ~15
Body Fat - ~%20


 

No, I actually weigh about 115....And I know a bunch of guys in 7th grade doing about 80-100 pushups, and they're for real, not that way you're talking about...I have been pretty athletic since 4th grade so after 3 years of doing pushups and other stuff, it actually works :)

I'm betting a lot of you guys are doing sit-ups the wrong way and are using your hip flexors rather than focusing on your stomach/abs.

I'm not saying everyone is doing them wrong, I'm saying a lot probably are though.  I consider myself pretty fit, and at my peak my number pretty much matched yours (65 push-ups, 15 chin-ups, 150 lbs).  After consulting my 2 friends, one who is a physical therapist, the other who is in medical school, both who are semi-fitness nuts, about the proper way to do sit-ups, my count went from 100+ to 30.



I've never been a good athlete, but the principal at my high school did the 60 meters in 6.67 seconds though which is among the quickest times in Norway.
I think my best time is around 9 seconds, but I was only 10 years old or so and probably around one third of my current weight...
Any sprinters here? I could be good at it if I bothered training for it (I don't want to either), my family has a long lineage of good short distance runners.
