I know it depends on the current cycle and your DS but what do you think is the average pushups per day?

Once while attending Infantry OCS there during the Vietnam War era, we were given a 24 hour profile after donating blood. When the profile ended, our Tac Officer handed each candidate a slip of paper with the number of pushups we had accumulated while forbidden to do them. Mine was well north of 1,000

LOL, there is no definitive answer to this. Best possible answer: As many as you can, then do more!

Please soldier don't look at it as a number, look at it as free body conditioning.

Average pushups at infantry OSUT is doing the 8 count pushup til your body has gone into failure then doing some more.
