I turned 50 last week and one of my employees asked me if I could do 50 push-ups. I was pretty confident I could, so I got down and did 50 (barely). I could have done 3 more if my life depended on it (maybe).
Anyway, my employee then said that Jack LaLanne did 50 at 50, 51 at 51, 52 at 52, all the way up to 78 at 78. At age 79 he couldn't pump out 79 push-ups.
Still, that's pretty impressive for Mr. LaLanne. My 50 was last week and my rib cage still hurts.
