Well, I'm not American, so I'm gonna have to take your word for it. Is it really that bad over there?

You would assume wrong. I probably can't make 150 in one set right now, since I train in short bursts, but I could when I used to wrestle in my teens. Five, well, I think I could manage ;)

I didn't mean to belittle the effort, anyway. I know how hard it is train to that level, and I respect it a lot.

I actually try to do mostly weight training.. I mostly did the 150 Pushup challenge (I think I actually got closer to 175) for fun.. I guess to try to push myself to see if I could do it.. But yeah there are probably more effective ways of building strength & muscle..
