As the age changes, so does the fad to exercise. Yesterday it might have been yoga, today it's power yoga. Fads come and go, but basics stay. And the one which has endured over the centuries is one's ability to do push-ups, variably called as dips.
I just found a push-up calculator, which determines your body fitness according to the number of push-ups you can do. Oh, and women can also measure their push-up strengths there.

Dude, wtf? 40 push ups for a 24 year old is the average? What place are they collecting their data from?
Obviously the estimated population data is platykurtic, since the sample statistics would cover mostly those respondents who exercise regularly, and those who filled in bloated number just for the heck of it.
Ok - for the benefit of those of us who have you Google to understand what you sometimes blabber, here's what platy(suck)kurtic means..
"A platykurtic distribution is one in which most of the values share about the same frequency of occurrence. As a result, the curve is very flat, or plateau-like. Uniform distributions are platykurtic."
he he ... you actually bothered to do that.
Actually that term comes from the current state of my mind, filled with so many statistical concepts and what not. It's pretty hard to digest all of them.
