Push-up Testing

I was getting reacquainted with my ACE Personal Trainer Manual today, I was reading through the Testing and Evaluation section. I ran into the push-up test! This test is to test the upper body strength and endurance. Here is the chart with norms for my age group using the number of push-ups completed.

Age 30 to 39 for males
Excellent = >30
Above Average = 22-29
Average = 17-21
Below Average = 12-16
Poor = <11

I know you want to know how many I did... Well I did 23!!! That makes me above average, hooray!!! On that note it is time for bed!
