Williams attempted the record at Body Club Fitness Center in Western Australia, where he sought to surpass 2,392 in the allotted time, 172 more than his previous record of 2,220.
Williams was required to keep his hands on the floor, while lowering his body until his elbows achieved a 90 degree angle for each rep to count toward the eventual record number.
The clock did not stop throughout the hour-long attempt, but Williams did occasionally take breaks to sit and breathe.
