The first two are 6th graders in good shape, active in soccer:

 

Yah, hmmmm...

 

Those two sixth graders would be in the bottom 20% and bottom 5% respectively for boys their age on pushups, and the bottom 25% on pullups. Is being in da bottom quartile "good shape"? Maybe it's just that our expectations have changed.

 

Perhaps what's goin' on is that the boys are all playing soccer full-time, and not swimming/climbing or doin' any other activity that provides for upper body development.
