What are the push-up standards?

In a discussion with Andrew Huberman, Andy Galpin outlined push-up standards for different genders:

Males

• Minimum Standard: 10 to 25 push-ups. Below 10 is considered a severe red flag.
• Ideal Standard: 25 push-ups. This indicates good upper body muscular endurance and overall fitness.

Females

• Minimum Standard: Ability to perform full push-ups, ideally aiming for 10 full push-ups.
• Ideal Standard: 15 full push-ups. Anything above 15 is considered good, while below five suggests they have more work to do.

Additionally, proper push-up form includes a full lockout of the elbows at the top and a chest touch or close to it at the bottom. No pauses are allowed during the test; movements should continue like a piston until the number is reached 1 2.
