Probably a good idea. I think mine is BW+10lbs or so, but haven't tested in a long time. I rarely have a spotter so it's tough for me.

If you are there at the right time, you might see me curshing it at the gym right underfoot....

so today, i did 15 + 15 + 12 to catch up to where i wanted to be (today is day 6). I did girly pishups, but tomorrow i'm switching to doing as many manly ones as possible.
5/15 - 14 girlie pushups + 7 burpees (i was too sore from yesterday to do a regular pushup).
