I'm a nearly middle aged woman who walks everywhere. My back hurts right now.

I could do this. I couldn't do anything but lay there wheezing or maybe begging for painkillers after, but I could do it. The pushups might give me trouble since i broke my shoulder last year, the sit-ups is half my daily without weights/a ledge.

A single pullup would exclude me, but those are notably absent.

No reasonably fit adult should fail this if they're taking it seriously. No athletic adult under 70 should blink at the effort.
