One handed is impossible for me, its not just strength needed, its balance.
Clapping isnt that hard, all you need to do is arch your back and clap really fast and no more (noticable) upward force is needed, its just catching youself on the way down that tires you out faster..
Im not going to say how many of them i can do though, no one would believe me.. 😉😛

How many can you do with two hands?
I barely managed 15, but my arms are like jelly now.

On 1 handed, make sure you don't put your hand in the middle...put below your shoulder.

Try clapping. That is probably the hardest of them all...unless you can't manage one handed's.

Putting the hands side by side excercises the triceps...and regular ones do the pex.

I can do 40 full pushups...if I pushed myself to my absolute limit, I might manage 45 before it would be impossible to continue.

depends on how long ago...if it was recent, you'd probably maintain it...but if you haven't done anything for months you would definitly be weaker.

My record is 280 throughout 1 day 🙄

3 sets of your max potential (for me, 3 sets of 40-45) each day helps alot.

full... Now like maybe 20, 30 if I try really hard and want to feel jelly arms.. When I was in shape i could something like 8 or 9 series of 10 pushups with something like 10 second pause between them.

Calpping my hands i tred but don't remember how many i did. But I suppose they were just a few...

With my hands touching the first time i did it I hit with my mouth on the floor. Going down is really hard that way. But then I did it prepared and could pull something like 10.
