    Overall, for those who could do 11 or more push-ups, they had a 64 percent lower risk of a cardiovascular event compared to those who could do 10 push-ups or fewer.

    People able to do 21 push-ups or more were found to have a 75 percent lower risk of suffering a cardiovascular event over the next decade compared to those who could do fewer than 10.

    And those who could do 40 or more push-ups had a 96 percent lower risk of any heart problems.

    Push ups are a bodyweight exercise. This study is basically saying that you have less risk of heart disease if you exercise regularly and don’t get fat.

      The only reason I exercise is to look good naked. I hate it, but do it every day.

        I respect the grind. Having abs sure does help you get your dick sucked. Weird that you don’t like it l, though. I love exercise

          I’m a little older than most lemmy posters. In decent shape, but compared to other people my age, looks like I’m olympics shape! So it’s definitely gotten me laid. I’ve fucked a lot of 40-year old women that are out of my league.

          It’s not so much that I’m amazing, it’s just that people let themselves get fucking fat and lazy as they get older. I look like a catch simply because the others look like shit. haha

          It’s way different than when I was in my 20’s. You had to be good looking to get laid when I was in my 20’s. So I got very little action. But 20 years later, being funny, outgoing and fit…yeah…I’m having a great time. lol (Though for the Lemmy incels, that won’t matter. They’re still gonna have issues because of their piss poor attitudes and “Everything is politics you fuckin nazi capitalist!” attitudes.)

          You’d think that I’d start to like exercise after all this time, but I really don’t. Easier now that I have my home gym because I can watch tv as I do it. But when I had to go to the gym every day… uh… boring as shit.

            Yeah, my goal is be hotter at 50 than I was at 20. Which, considering what I looked like at 20, shouldn’t be hard.

              EXACTLY! That was my strategy, and it worked. You got this, brother!
