The Best Sign You’re Healthy Is Whether or Not You Can Do 40 Push-Ups

Forget expensive medical tests, if you want to see whether or not you’re going to have heart problems, just drop and give me 40.

A new study out of Harvard found that the best sign of whether a man’s heart is healthy or not is whether he can bang out at least 40 push-ups in a row.

If a male can, his odds of a heart attack, stroke, or heart disease are 96% lower than average.

The researchers say the test works because your ability to do push-ups is the best overall, quote, “marker of general physical fitness” especially for men over 40.
