This achievement only unlocked for player 1 with us, even weirder was it was player 2 who was playing as Leo. We are playing split screen. Annoying but we can unlock again during chapter select...

As an update, today I in a coop session we did the push up with both characters during the same replay of a chapter and the achievement unlocked for both players. So we did not have to do it both with Leo. We were using different characters each.

Make sure you talk to the guy first. I didn't and i did 20 and wondered why I got no achievement.

Mapped the triggers of my elite controller to X which made this one a lot easier, it's a hell of a lot of button mashing to get to 20!

Just use the co-pilot function available at "Ease of access" in Xbox options.
This way you can have two controllers assigned to the same player, having two X buttons to press at the same time.

My buddy and I just wrecked our elbows trying to do this legitimately. Getting past 17 is a herculean feat.

For some reason I thought it was the pull up bars. Got to 16 on those and almost blew out my elbow, thinking it was impossible. Then realized it was the other bars and did it first try. Don't make the same mistake I did!

The Dip Achievement/Trophy Guide

Chapter: Escape
Subchapter: The Yard

After the introduction scenes, both players will find themselves in different sections of the yard. In both sections, you will see exercise equipment which needs to be used by one or either player. The main goal of this achievement is to break the record which is 20 but this can prove quite challenging for those who can't button mash. As you do more reps, they will get harder and harder, causing you to mash cn_X like you've never done before. When I did it, I had placed my controller down on a table and used my middle finger to mash the button which caused the circle to fly up pretty quickly.

Quick note if you didn’t watch the video and just read the text of this solution like I did - you need to talk to the guy at the bars before starting or it doesn’t count.

Note that it is a REQUIREMENT to talk to the other two doing the dips beforehand. I did 20 dips with both characters and I didn't get the achievement. Then with Leo I talked to them and set the record again of 20 dips, this time earning me the achievement

Mission: The Yard

Right at the beginning of the mission you can walk over to the dude doing dips as leo. Leo will talk to them about the record being 19. After the conversation hop on the dip machine and do 20 by tapping the cn_X button rapidly. After you do 20 a cutscene will happen and your achievement will unlock.

Because someone wants to put a negative vote on a very good tip i will edit my solution.

There are six other guides here and my guide will not repeat the same details as this other guides have. This is merely a tip to add and it is extremely helpful because this achievement can be difficult.

If you get tired hit the pause button as it will actually pause. I did this with an online friend and it works.

This is just a tip, but don't worry about losing. Button mash cn_X as best you can. If you start getting tired, you can stop and relax. The only way you would have to start over is if you press cn_B. You don't even need to pause.

Para desbloquear este logro debes estar en el Capitulo 1 "La Huida" en la parte del patio y lo único que necesitas hacer es hablar con los tipos que están haciendo fondos y marcar un nuevo récord aparecerá al hacer 20 fondos.


To unlock this achievement you must be in Chapter 1 "The Escape" in the courtyard part and the only thing you need to do is talk to the guys who are doing funds and set a new record It will appear when you do 20 funds.

Note: Leo Caruso is the only one who can do this trophy.

Chapter Select: Escape - The Yard
Trophy unlocks for both players? Yes

This is the very first trophy that you can obtain, and it can only be done with Leo.

After the introduction, you'll be in the prison yard with a bunch of exercise equipment. The co-op partner who's playing Vincent needs to do nothing while the Leo co-op partner goes to the two men on the right. Speak with the older man and he will say that the other guy who is currently working out has a record of 19 reps. To beat this record, you'll need to achieve 20 reps. This is done by interacting with the exercise machine to the right of the man with the button and then tapping the button repeatedly until you've reached 20 reps. As you get higher and higher, the tapping becomes much harder to do. I highly recommend that you lay the controller down and mash the button with your index finger to reach the goal much easier. Once you've achieved 20, the trophy will unlock.

If you fail or get off the equipment, you'll need to start the count all over again. Additionally, you don't want to trigger the fighting scene in the prison yard or you won't be able to restart the checkpoint to attempt the trophy again unless you use Chapter Select.

In case you are struggling with the last dip, my advice is to rub the button with something like a small battery intsead of mashing frantically

Chapter: Escape - The Yard

Take control of Leo and talk to the nearby in-mates near the bars in the workout area. They will tell you the record is 20. Once interacting with the bars you will be prompted to button mash. Once you hit the record amount of 20, the game will start a dialogue letting you know you've beat the record. The trophy will then unlock for both players.

Here's a visual aid:

This unlocks during the chapter ‘Escape: The Yard’.

After both Leo and Vincent arrive at their cells, there will be a short cinematic in the prison yard. Someone will approach Leo and tell him that someone wants to talk to him. Instead of walking to the objective, have Leo walk forward towards two men working out on the vertical bars. Talk to the older man and you will discover that the current record is 19. Leo says he can easily break that, so the older man says to prove it.

Walk up to the bars and press to begin. Keep tapping to perform more reps. As you do more, it becomes more difficult and you have to tap faster. As long as you don’t press (to cancel), you can stop tapping if you need a break. Or you can just pause the game. When you’ve reached 20 reps, you’ll stop, gloat that you didn’t even break a sweat and the achievement will unlock.

This achievement starts at [00:08:45] in Maka’s video walkthrough.

You can perform it not only on horizontal bars.

Everything is done like this, approach the bars, there are prisoners standing there and another prisoner is working on the bars nearby, approach someone with whom you can interact “talk”

In a conversation with him, he will tell you that can you do more than 20 outsiders?: a dispute will arise between you. And you can do, for example, parallel bars, horizontal bars, abs, push-ups.

The achievement is completed in the Escape/Yard chapter for Leo. As soon as you appear, just go forward all the way to the uneven bars, you will see two people there, a coach and his student (relatively speaking), then you just need to talk to the coach about how you want to break the record for push-ups on the uneven bars by doing 20 push-ups without outside help, then get up onto the adjacent bars and spam . Attention! Next is a life hack for those who have difficulty doing 18, 19 and 20 pull-ups! We press the PS button, thereby exiting to the main screen of the console, then go to Settings , select the line Devices , select the line Controllers , then click on the very last option Communication method and change to Use USB cable and connect the gamepad via wire, thereby reducing the input lag of the controller (signals travel faster by wire than by air). Do not forget that if you do not change the connection type, but simply connect the controller to the wire, it will simply start charging; all signals without the Use USB cable option enabled will still be transmitted via bluetooth.

They just did it 21 times on the uneven bars, without dialogue - it didn’t count.
After the dialogue I did it 20 more times, then it was counted.
