    1. When to push with toes, mid-foot, or heels inquiry.
    2. You get a single 24-hour attempt to earn $1,000 for every push-up you do. You must choose your target beforehand, and if you fail to reach that number within the 24 hours, you receive no money at all. How many push-ups would you commit to?
