This is not u for debate. People who have trouble with this often go all the way down and lift their hands up before pushing up again. Your chest shouldn't "kiss" the ground, though that's usually acceptable - I guess - if you're doing reps quickly. It should touch the ground, your ribcage should squish the skin.

e; Some of you are such gigantic idiots. This isn't suprising but it is annoying. If you were to be running miles and you ran 4870 feet, could you count that as a lap (rep)? No. You could not. Just like a full rep of a push up is arms completely extended to arms completely flexed. Up with the concentric, down with the eccentric.

The entire problem is people doing pushups for numbers as some sort of ego boost.

Pushups should be done all the way down, then back all the way up, and not for numbers, but do a few sets to exhaustion during the day.

If you want to find out how many you can do, wait until the soreness passes for a day or two and then do a max out set, would be good to have someone who knows what's what count for you and at the same time keep you form in check.
