Pushups Test for KD and KE


Before lifting this morning, the K girls did a 1-minute pushup test.  (They missed it last month when we did it, so this is their first measure.)
KD:  on toes,  90-degree arms = 27
KE:  on toes,  90-degree arms = 30
According to the standards for the ACSM pushup test, which allows women to do modified knee-pushups, you're both "Good."  I'm sure you'd be off the charts if you'd done them on your knees!












The Army also has a pushup test, though it's 2 minutes.  You were both able to do as many in 1 minute as the army requires for a passing score in twice that time!
US Army PFT standards for women.  60 points is passing; 90 is excellent.
