Wait, so I been doing the push-up all wrong??

[SheWantTheD]

I do diamond push-ups, wide stance and elevated regular. You don't have to do full range or lockouts if you do different types.

Do 100 of whichever type everyday and you'll build up endurance and equal strength through the upper body

Jeff Cav know what he's talking about but there's more than one way to do this

You can do full range on all those type of pushups you listed

 

[Bledswole]

Bench press > all

Nope. All depends on what you going for

 

[newworldafro]

So his approach is we just chasing reps

 

[Bledswole]

@A.R.

Nope he trippin.

He locking out way too much that’s gonna do extreme damage to your joints over time. Plus with him locking out so high he’s not keeping any tension on the chest. You grow the most/best with resistance/tension.

Yeah but full range increases the likelihood of ulnar nerve pain and injury too when you doing a bunch of reps

Stop it. I’ve been doing full range of motion for years. Ain’t never had injury issues from it. If you are getting nerve damage from body weight exercises idk what wrong with ya lmao

Bench press > all

Incline press> bench press

Brehs in here talking about locking out is bad do you half squat as well

coli always knows more than trained professionals

Can some post a video with correct form? Daps and reps. I think I've been doing them wrong with the way my wrists be feeling.

Again locking out like he is over and over for a high rep number of pushups is bad. And yes if you going ass to grass on squats and you ain’t no professional power lifter or bodybuilder then again that’s pointless and doing damage to your body.

The guy in the video was the following:
Jeff Cavaliere MSPT, CSCS served as both the Head Physical Therapist and Assistant Strength Coach for the New York Mets during the National League East Championship 2006, 2007 and 2008 seasons


Who to believe who to believe

yea dude is legit, he’s had pro athletes and wrestlers train with him. Can’t name them off the top of my head but they’re all in his videos

Gym cacs think they know it all when it comes to fitness

I could do about 50 push-ups the "wrong way"


But I tried what's in the video, going all the way down, could only do 10. Gah damn, these are no joke

Military shyt boy

TI used to put his hand under you and you better be touching it, hold, then all the way up... 1

ANYBODY not do that shyt, we start over. Ain't no half assing over here

Truth. The amount of bro science when it comes to lifting is wild.

Makes you not want to lift unless you have the resources to absolutely push your max

Most people have shytty push-up form.

Women flare their arms out way too wide, looks very painful on the shoulders.

I do all my pushups chest touch the floor and 99% lock out at the top. Been doing them this way since high school.

Same not a full lock out but extremely close + always touch the ground
