Helmke meanwhile already has his sights on other records. Local media in Florida in March reported that American man Rob Stirling, 60, had managed 3,264 push ups late last month – but that claim is yet to be recognized by Guiness. Given the competition, it is not clear how long his record will stand. Helmke told Guiness World Records it took him two to three years to build up the physical strength to pull off the extraordinary feat. Posting the certificate on his Facebook last month, he wrote: “This one finally came through.” Two previous record holders were also Australians. 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. The previous record was set by Daniel Scali, who delivered 3,182 push ups, in April 2022. He was docked 34 push ups due to improper form, and yet he went on to overtake record-setters that came before him. Australian man Lucas Helmke was required to maintain perfect form while completing the push ups in his local gym in Brisbane.
