Correct Technique
These records may not be officially ratified by Guinness World Records. To ensure fair comparison, all attempts should follow standard push-up procedures. According to Guinness guidelines, a proper push-up requires keeping the body straight (no bending at the knees or waist), lowering until the elbows reach a 90-degree angle, and then raising the body until the arms are straight (without needing to lock the elbows).
