  For the army, to get in guys need to do 15 and girls 8 to be enlisted.


Fuck, is that all???

Yeah, to get in! After that guys have to do 50 in 2 minutes (for under 18s) and 40 in 2 mins (for under 25s). I forget the one for females.

I guess, first it's just so they know you're worth working on.



God damn!
I should go join the army
Thats easy!

No, it's not possible. How can you be fit and only do 3? When I was weak as fuck I could only do 15.

Yep. It might also be a good idea for you to do more reps on your knees so you can build the muscils better. But yeah, it's possible.

  EDIT: I just remembered, it's a lot harder for females to do more pushups than males, so that's a factor as well.

It only takes 15 push ups to qualify for the army? Weird, that.

yeah just for the initial test. they train you up from there.  
are you actually from zimbabwe?


Nope, born and raised in the U.S.A.
