About 1000 depending on how fast you jog, how much you weigh, etc.

It wouldn't be quantity it would be length of time.

When jogging you're lifting your entire body weight off the ground. Push-ups only lift the upper torso and primarily only involve upper body muscles.

Maybe figure 1/3 as many calories for 30 solid minutes of push-ups compared to jogging.
