This study smells funny to me. Why did they divide pushup numbers into groups of 10 and test there, rather than use a continuous measure? I sense multiple comparisons/researcher degrees of freedom problems.
- solarmist 8y agoConsidering how the test was actually run I feel like it's a nearly meaningless test. The bar they set was extremely high once you read the details. I used to be able to do 40+ push ups, but at no where near the pace that the researchers required.
- yosito 8y agoI find I can easily bust out 40 pushups at that rate, but if I try to go slower, it's harder to reach 40.
