Get fit, have fun and push for better mental health.
3,249 push-ups
5-28 June
The Push-Up Challenge is a free mental health and fitness event focused on pushing for better mental health for all Australians.
Participants complete 3,249 push-ups over 24 days, representing the 3,249 lives lost to suicide in Australia in 2022.
How it works
GET DAILY TARGETS AND FACTS
We'll give you daily push-up targets that relate to an important Mental Health Fact. You can track your daily progress and check out the facts on the app.
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
You don't have to be a push-up pro to participate. You're welcome to substitute push-ups with sit-ups, squats or tailored exercises and you can aim for half the target.
Fundraise to make a difference
Make a difference to mental health services across Australia by choosing to fundraise for our beneficiaries - Lifeline, headspace or The Push for Better Foundation.
Fundraising is optional but it's a great way to show support and get your family and friends involved in the push for better mental health.
