A few pushups and pullups every 10 to 30 minutes isn't going to do much.

Serves you right for losing 3 times in one day! OT, but their minimum requirement is a joke:
age 17-26 chin-ups 3 crunches 50 3-mile run 28:00

The chin-ups and crunches seem easy, but running a 9 minute, 20 second mile 3 times consecutively seems pretty challenging. My mile run time is probably about 8 minutes, and that's only if I'm doing 1 mile.

My mile run time is probably about 8 minutes, and that's only if I'm doing 1 mile. a 28 minute 3 mile really isn't very challenging if you put some effort into it beforehand. Hell, I could run one in 6 minutes, then walk 2 in 22 lol

lol this is actually pretty good advice methinks
but it might actually make one rage more that this random retard on the internet is forcing you to do pushups.
