An Australian father has set a new world record for push ups, completing more than 3,206 in just one hour – that’s 53 every minute, or almost one a second.
Lucas Helmke powered through the push ups at his local gym in Brisbane to claim the title set by another Australian man just last year – it’s the fourth time a new record has been set for the feat in three years. An accountant by trade, the 33-year-old father told Guinness World Records he wanted to “provide inspiration” for his one-year-old son by showing him “nothing is impossible.” Each push up had to be flawless to meet the standards required for an official world record.
Helmke smashed the record at the Iron Underground gym in November last year and was recently informed by Guinness World Records that his record had been approved. Two previous record holders were also Australians. Posting the certificate on his Facebook last month, he wrote: “This one finally came through.” Helmke told Guiness World Records it took him two to three years to build up the physical strength to pull off the extraordinary feat.
