If you perform more than 20 push-ups in 1 minute, it shows quite good health. The number of push-ups may partly reflect the strength of the upper body, physical strength and muscle endurance.
Conversely, if you only do it less than 20 times per minute, the health and strength of the upper body may not reach a good level. In case you only do it less than 10 times, the body may be in a poor physical condition and needs to increase exercise.
Experts say that when entering middle age, people usually lose about 1-2% of their muscle mass each year. When muscle mass decreases, strength also decreases, metabolism slows down and bone protection is weaker.
So, if you can perform 12 or more push-ups in one workout, this shows that your muscle strength is quite good. Even, many studies suggest that such fitness can make your biological age about 10 years younger than your actual age.
Push-ups are simple whole-body exercises, can be done anywhere and are very suitable for maintaining daily exercise habits. This exercise not only helps increase strength for the chest, shoulder, arm, and abdomen muscles, but also improves core strength and body coordination.
