Muscular Endurance (Upper Body) – Maximum Push Ups. On the “Get Ready” command, the member will assume the front-leaning rest position (push-up) with the arms straight, elbows locked, hands about shoulder width apart, and palms placed on the floor. The feet may be together or up to twelve (12) inches apart. The body should be essentially straight when viewed from the side, from the shoulders to the ankles. On the “Begin” command, the member starts the push-up by bending the elbows and lowering the entire body until the chest touches the fist of the Chief’s designee (the upper arms should be parallel to the ground at this point). The member returns to the starting position by raising the entire body until the arms are fully extended. The member may rest in the up (elbows locked) position only. The body must remain in a generally straight line and as a single unit for the entire repetition. Failure to keep the body straight or to properly lower the entire body until the cost touches the Chief’s designee fist or allowing any part of the body other than the hands or feet to touch the ground results in disqualification. Incorrect movements will not be counted. Each member has sixty (60) seconds to complete as many push-ups as they can.
