@hybridcalisthenics: How heavy are your pushups? This isn't a perfect test. Part of the weight in your arms isn't really being moved the same as the rest of your body, for one thing. Also, weight distribution will affect how heavy that weight will feel. However, I found it interesting and wanted to try. The weight fluctuated quite a bit based on how much I was leaning, so some of the positions look wonkier than usual. Just trying to get it to stay still. I told my wife I'd pick up sushi and didn't want the restaurant to be closed by the time I finished filming (we received it and the food was good). Have a wonderful day! #hybridcalisthenics

now THIS is the kinda content I wanna learn about!

Omegoat :

Absolutely genius idea but I wonder how accurate this really is

Emma Trewhitt :

This was interesting! I actually don’t care if it’s 100% accurate, it’s more about the relative comparison between each variation vs the actual weight.

user5079748652928 :

why'd you add the part of you ordering sushi

Jarvyk :

very interesting experiment

zubko🇨🇦 :

why can I crank out 60 pushups sitting at 175 but I'm SO trash at bench press?

austin carter :

DUDE were you posting on ifunny? I have been looking for you for years! I'm glad to see your still out there

WasabiUWU :

What about decline push ups 🫪

Kevin St. Hill :

Trig could explain this but someone is gonna say they didn’t learn this in school

sava_rides :

Do legs elevated!

Tempora :

What if you get two scales so you have a better form and just add the difference

Ibimalf :

I love this. If I think of it based on body weight percentage, then it's no wonder I can't instantly do a full pushup- I'm pushing a lot more weight with less defined muscles! Which means I am still working hard even if I'm doing a modification 😁🥰

Dez🍒 :

happy birthday to your wife 🥰

Amit Chand :

All this time, I thought a normal pushup would be less than 50% of my body weight.

AerFire :

this is a cool way to validate the hard work! I may try this with my kids!

Jonathan Pleasant :

What about decline pushups??!

abdo :

What about decline push ups

Masha :

It's worth noting that there's other things influencing how hard a push-up variation is. A big one when comparing the knee vs incline that have the same numbers is that a full plank position is harder to hold than a knee plank.

peterongoing :

This is a really cool experiment

happy birthday to miss calisthenics !!🥳
