    try go lower. if your arms are close together it works your triceps if theyer further apart it works your chest. try and do them slower

    no problem :)
    I have been doing pushups for about 2 months, and I’m noticing how it’s cutting in now from my shoulders into the chest.
    I was going to start the close-grip pushups more often because I want to make sure the underside is cut too…
    so don’t give up – just make sure you get your protein and keep upping that pushup count :D
    stretch afterwards, too – it helps make a leaner(of fat), healthier, more oxygenated muscle – or you could end up with slumped shoulders from not stretching

    thanks alot man, that really helps. i think i had been doing them to fast and maybe not going low enough…..thanks

    how fast do you do them, and how heavy are you? try to do them for a two-count if they’re too easy, or bring your hands closer together to where they’re touching. If it’s still too easy, then put your feet up on something. make sure your feet are closer together to begin with, ’cause it’ll make sure more of the weight is against your upper body. make sure your chest barely touches the ground – make it touch the ground just to make sure you’re going down far enough, and don’t bend your butt

    ok, so im 16 thats an ok age to start yea, thats what all they big bodybuilders say at my gym, and they all started at a young age. and also about the vid, when im doing the pushups it doesnt feel like its doing anything, i could do 100 of them, does that mean im not doing it the way it should be done….thanks

    you end up with problems from not performing the exercises correctly. Not starting young.

    I like doing dumbell presses on a bench so i can get a longer range of motion..include decline and incline in your regiment. When i do chest and that week is dumbell press day i do incline decline flat and dumbell pull overs..start out 12-15 reps….10-12 reps…6-8 reps..this method recruits more muscle fibers and will build more as you recuperate.

    not a power training exercise. lame video

    of course your not going to see an improvement over a week, muscle building doesnt just happen over night. you have to keep at it…. alot longer than a week.

    i have been doing similar to these but with my arms horizontal on the floor, but i dont see any improvements on my chest after a week..

    Sounds good, you don’t want to overdo it and injure yourself.

    seriously dont lift weight at 13, got a mate of mine, same as you 6 ft at 13 and got an entire weight set from is uncle. he starts lifting and working with weight, his build got massive, he could bicep curl 32 kg at 16 and weighed 16 stone, now were 17 and because he started lifting and building muscle at such a young age, he now has problems with some joints, his hips twisted and his shoulders, and has been in and out of hospital due to it all because he got too big, too fast, too young.

    doesn’t matter how tall you are. you just need to wait at least until you get past puberty because that is when your testosterone levels are going to rise and you will build more muscle.

    well for 13 i am pretty big im 6ft so??

  19. WoWcheese 06. Mar, 2010 at 7:32 pm #

    you shouldnt be lifting at 13 kid. stick to body weight exercises for 2 or 3 more years.

  20. dboyz0123 06. Mar, 2010 at 8:31 pm #

    No, this will focus with smaller range of motion, on the chest and some triceps. Even the shoulders a little. You might want to also do dips, bent rows, upright rows, bicep curls, shoulder presses. That way you work your back and chest but also hit your arms, those will add muscle. So yes this will help build chest, not as good as regular bench press, but good enough. However, just doing these alone will not give you real big arms.

    These are floor presses with dbs. They limit ur range of motion because ur elbows hit the floor. However, these are good for ppl who are stuck in getting their weight past certain sticking point on bench press and for those with shoulder injuries cause ur elbows dont go far back. Also with the flexation at the top, it will sorta mock a fly except with a bench combo. Also going dbs are not a bad thing. This is also good if u have no weight lifting cages or good bench set ups. Nice exercise. Thx

  23. dukeunicorn 06. Mar, 2010 at 9:05 pm #
