Please, how tall are you?

I'm probably a good 4 inches taller than you, stop complaining.

It does matter, pushups are directly proportional to wingspan/reach. You're 5'7", which means your arms aren't nearly as long as mine, or probably even Phat's.

Someone who is 5'7" should NOT be complaining about how far up they have to go to do a push up.
