Are Push Ups Worth Anything?

I worked up to 173 in a row, but have fallen off since then. I can do about 113 now. I can get 25 one-armers, though, and I can do 2 one-arm pull-ups with each arm.
 
WTF! I can do about 24 in a row without stopping max! How can you do so many? I just collapse if i try it one handed. Maybe I should start doing them more often.

You're right, 24 is a pretty little number. I consider 50 to be a realistic goal.
 
You are going to quickly get that number up, if you are semi serious about training... it took me 2 months to get from hardly 20 up to 55.

Even though a big number is impressive, try to do the kind of push ups that are so tough you can't make more than 5. Example, putting your legs higher, or doing a one hand push up, but arm on a desk, legs on the floor.

Your strenght will drastically grow, I swear rofl.

Regular push ups will also be far more easy.
