I think I can do only 10 at the most. It's been so long since I done push-ups.

I don't know, and I don't feel like trying. I can probably do 6-10, although that's just a guess.

Are you saying I need to try now so I can answer truthfully and honestly?
I'm going to guess because I just ate mexican food. I'm going with 11-15.

I can do 20 "girl" push-ups. I could probably do more, but that's all Ben made me do when I got on this dieting and exercise kick. (I'll be starting that up again, soon. I was doing pretty good until stress started to get to me.) I can probably do about 5 of the real thing.

It sucked but just Sunday I did 76 regulation push-ups in two minutes for part of my Physical Readiness Assessment (PFA). In the military, that is max for my age in that event, so I stopped there.

Right on!
In the USMC we didn't have to do push-ups as part of our PFT(Physical Fitness Test). We did pull-ups, situps, and a 3 mile run.

Seven. And they weren't very good ones. I probably could have done more, but I was grunting on the first one and each one felt like the last.

Zero.

My arms are not strong at all since the fire and I doubt that my hands could support me anyway.

And, no, I'm not getting down on the floor to check.

Been there, done that. Not as a U.S. Marine but as a Marine Regulation FMF Hospital corpsman over the course of 14 years and two wars. As a 'doc' we had to do both the PFA and the PFT stay Marine Regs. My best PFA score was while I was with III MARDIV in 1991. I had spent so much time doing excercise with our marines (to prepare for the PFT) that when I ran the Navy 1.5, I ran it in 7' 41". I also earned first 300 PFT score that cycle. It wasn't my last, but there were a lot of years before I matched it again.
