A recent study yielded some surprising results: middle-aged men that regularly drop down and give the world multiple push-ups are less likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease for the next ten years. In Fact, the magic number for the amount of push-ups is 40. Results of the peer-reviewed study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), and it was conducted by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public health.
Also importantly, according to the Study Finds Organization, is that the study is the first of its kind that associates push up exercises with future cardiovascular events in male adults.
Research for the study was conducted on more than 1,000 middle-aged active firefighters, and they reviewed the firefighters’ heath data every year during the decade-long study. During the study, the firefighters were asked to perform as many push-up exercises as they possibly could.
