Push-Up Record - Most Thumb Push-Ups with One Leg Raised in a Minute

How many can push-ups can you do on your thumbs?

This is the record for the maximum number of thumb push-ups someone can do in one minute.

The Guiness World Record for the most thumb push-ups with one leg Raised is by Pakistani athlete Muhammad Arshad. He broke this world record for a third time, when he performed 66 thumb pushups with one leg raised in one minute on the 4th May 2025.

Correct Technique

The assessors at the Guinness World Record requires that record setters perform the push-up with a specific technique, which is essentially what we describe as a standard push-up. Participants must keep the body straight throughout (i.e. no bending at the knees or waist), and the body must be lowered until at least a 90-degree angle is attained at the elbows. The body is then raised until the arms are straight, although the elbows do not need to be locked. In this case, the weight should also be solely on the tips of the thumbs, and one leg rasied off the ground for the duration of the attempt..
