This Has To Be Stopped

In 2022, Matt Walsh asked, "What is a woman?" In 2024, Andrew Hiller asks, "What is a push-up?"

[@Pedroflamengo97]

Hillers second movie will be „Am I an ableist“

It would appear that girl power defies logic

Push ups were so much easier before i learnt to do them properly. 64 years old and 6 years of CrossFit i am happy to get 12 unbroken!

[@jamesstone5605]

Recently discovered you sorry to say but ad I did. No I do not agree either everything You say but thats ok you spit solid facts that everyone else is afraid to so I respect what you do and thank you. I blew my top over this video and my wife wondered why I flipped over it. Thanks for pointing it out for the people who somehow don't know. It truly amazes me how many people dont know how to do a correct push up.

[@hillerfit]

Happy to have ya. Say glad your wife witnessed the flip. Those are tough

[@YourFitnessQuest]

At first I thought Hiller was picking on the elderly with this video, but he has a point when it comes to having consistent and exact rules and expectations and that goes for any sport. Btw.. huge respect for that grandmother for having such strength and endurance. I thought her form was better than the second dude.

[@hillerfit]

It is a fact that it is better than the dude.

[@TIO540S1]

Good on the grandmother of 12. However, the Guiness Book of World Records is a ridiculous joke, and has been so for decades. Gaining a so-called world record there is utterly empty.

[@shauninoregon]

"Somehow some time in the past they built pyramids and people still don't know that you have to touch your chest to the ground when you're doing a push-up." This killed me. 🤣

[@jlynnyay]

This looks like every dude’s first time ❤ Lol 😂 good stuff Hiller

[@tonydecuba]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@stevenm5082]

In the 1980s if your chest didnt touch the floor you hadnt done a pushup. And what the hell happened to locking your elbows after each rep? The records are going higher but the standards are falling through the floor.

[@luisoliveira601]

"Why is it that everybody who does these David Goggins sort of things always has something wrong with their brain?" Sounds just like Exercices in Futility from Infinite Elgintensity and I love it! Amen!

[@everydayshowday5151]

4:09 - That was a jump scare that I wasn’t ready for. 🤣

[@MandalorDX]

That’s the FORSCOM hq every time we do the army combat fitness test. Even with the standard shown before every test, graders still wouldn’t hold the standard

[@jedidiahsnelson2924]

I don’t know Hiller, I’ve been inspired. I’ve decided that with these movement standards I’m going to go after the squat record.

[@hillerfit]

10K knee bends and a surgical procedure later…

[@coach_paul_t]

This is the same form when you ask a child to do a pushup, because they don’t have the strength for a proper pushup, and do this for unsafe mechanical leverage and no range of motion. Until hopefully they learn and build the strength in life to do a full range of motion pushup. And some people never learn it.

[@RyderChampouillon]

The standard is the standard!

[@alanthomas7630]

Today i learned a new word, anthrow.... no wait it's gone

[@BCa-wk7gu]

It should be the same standard as the new Army CFT….basically a HRPU.

[@MrHongleberry]

I learned pushups in CrossFit, doing it the Guinness way actually hurts when I try.

[@Snskch3]

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!!

[@Alwaysoverlandnz]

Simple way to solve it is to have a button counter at a set height from the ground that counts 1rep digitally each time your chest comes down to touch it. You would still have to judge the upward movement/extension, but the depth of each push up seems to be where everyone who says they can do 100+ (or 1575) is cheating lately. The standard seems to have changed drastically...

[@poundcake88]

Been training and group fitness instructing for over 25 years and I correct push ups on the daily. And when the do it right, they struggle. Breaking bad form and bad habits.

[@jrgills]

What if you weren’t on top during your first time?

[@RyanMoody]

GBWR is such an odd organization. Having worked with them closely, while pursuing breaking multiple box jump related world records, I’ve found interactions with them to be quite confusing and laughable. When I first applied a records idea for “Highest Running Box Jump”, this is after breaking the “Highest Standing Box Jump” multiple times (which they refer to as “Highest Leap onto a Vertical Platform”), the record idea was denied by GBWR. Why? (You might ask) They stated that record variation was too similar to the “High Jump” in the Olympics, and to “Hurdle” events. I refuted their claim with video evidence and they would have nothing to do with it. For an organization dedicated to being precise and exact, at times … they just aren’t.

[@loganhetzner6259]

My biggest pet peeve is the chest rising above the hips “push up” see it far too often by people claiming to rx.

[@sebastiannai4381]

more tension doing those partial reps, no release at top or bottom, so there's that. Just ask the jacked calisthenics dudes or jail bros. They all do those partial reps. To be a senior and repping out those tight pushups like that is completely badass and something we can all wish for. One day you'll be old and a shell of your young self, Andrew, and you'll look back in a different light to guys like Hippensteel or this badass granny.

I bet they can’t do 30

they max out the push-up but end with a 13 minute 1.5 mile😂

[@stevenfletcher3411]

There's a class video somewhere on KZbin two US military guys doing a china military entrance fitness test. One of them was doing it correctly the other one wasn't. Ofc the video approved all of them. The one who wasn't barely beat the other guy, do it right!

[@dustyhayes9569]

I would be curious to see how many push ups you could do the way Guinness allows them verses full push ups with your chest touching the floor.

[@paulburns1405]

@@hillerfit quarter rep pull-up world record? 🤣

[@freakied0550]

A decade after Mike Chang sets the Guiness World Record for pullups, we get this. Life truly is cyclical.

[@coachb530]

The funny thing is that their rules are extremely strict...meaning it can be about anything for a single movement, but the rules for that are written very strictly as I've went thru this process several times. This means that they wrote the rules to allow that, but shouldve never been called it a pushup. It should be named "modified pushup" or "half pushup". Regardless, it's impressive to do that many. If you wanna see something impressive, lookup the guy who can do like 11+ "Sally Ups" in a row.

[@JBoudreaux0712]

Funny is that is the Airforce standard for pushups just get to 90.

[@themarymansour]

Pretty sure you also have to pay to hold a Guinness record

[@hillerfit]

That’s okay

[@cafeapaka7501]

These pushups should be called Partial Repetition Pushups - You can overcompensate and accidentally become strong in this range when you initially learn the push up when doing it improperly by not going to the floor and extending to at least 95% extension. Overtime and with practice and by avoiding proper pushups you become extremely strong in this partial range-while not a full rep it is still hard to become effective at this most ineffective style of push up - ironic

[@ChetLeeKowalski]

Pretty sure even David Goggins would say what the fuck is that

Let me start by saying partial push ups have always been a pet peeve of mine, but are we really just going to breeze past “Mosu barbell back somersaults?” Dafuq are barbell back somersaults? And isn’t it safe to say 1 would be the record? 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@Unfluencer]

not a real push up.

[@Pepesilvia267]

Donna does an ok range of motion. Better than the guy but ya she isn’t doing the full range of motion. Chest to floor is dumb IMO as the generally accepted range is tricep parallel even if the rules generally say elbow 90. Elbow at 90 would not be as deep as we look for since the forearm isn’t perpendicular to the floor. That being said, it’s a game and you have to know the rules so you can ride that line. If Guinness doesn’t care about lockout or chest to floor, why do it? If no one in the past held the standard, why should you? Winning is usually done by gaming the rules. Purists can say those don’t count, and I agree. However, if Guiness says they do, that’s all that matters to setting the record. IMO they should have a button that you chest taps and it credits you the rep. Remember in school when you had to touch your partners hand that was on the floor?

[@beckjacob]

My problem with your criticism is that you're applying the Crossfit standard of what a push up is to someone not doing or competing in Crossfit. I can tell you from 26 years of active duty service and hundreds, if not thousands, of Physical Fitness Tests where the first event is the push up, there is no prescribed standard that your chest must touch the ground for a push up repetition to be counted. For a push up repetition to count, the upper portion of the arm (think about measuring from the elbow to the shoulder) must at least be parallel to the ground in the "down" position. For some people this means their chest is touching the ground, and for others it means their chest is not touching the ground. In fact, the rationale for not requiring the chest to touch the ground is to prevent a rebounding effect whereby an individual could "bounce" themselves off the ground to gain additional repetitions. If she were competing in Crossfit or representing Crossfit then I would have no problems with your take on this, but she isn't, so your application of the "Crossfit movement standard" is irrelevant in this case.
