50 Push Ups in 4 Minutes - Can You Do It?

My first intentions for this site included my goal of obtaining the Six Pack Abs.  I told myself that if I were able to see my Six Pack Abs again, then my body would be in the best physical shape I’ve seen in years.  My reasoning is that I’ll be strengthening my core and we all know that a strong core means better physical health.

The other day, I was talking to a friend of mine who owns a karate gym in Scottsdale Arizona.  He teaches classes himself so he is in real good physical shape. We were discussing goals when he stated to me that his goal is to do 50 push ups within 4 minutes. He says he feels he will be at his optimum physical strength when he achieves this goal.

At first, my mind was thinking that would be an easy task, especially for a guy who teaches karate.  He informed me that he hasn’t obtained that goal yet, but is working diligently to get there.  I started thinking more about this and realize that 50 push ups in 4 minutes is extremely difficult to accomplish.  I’m not sure I could even to 25 push ups in 4 minutes. 

I don’t know anyone who can accomplish this task.  Are you someone who can?  If so, leave a comment here to let us know.
