One arm push-ups might be easier than you think! Unilateral pushing (and pulling) can sometimes help us even out lateral imbalances and translate to a lot of daily activity - opening doors, throwing, punching, and more! (I guess some people punch every day - hopefully not towards random people). As usual you can build up with easier variations! Some people might prefer to go directly to the one arm pushup and assist with, say, a resistance band. While that's fine and might theoretically get you there faster, I find it nice to develop a variety of pushing skills and positions on the way! Just something to play around with. Hope this can help! Have a wonderful day.
i can currently do 6,5,4, hand 30 cm above ground, the hardest part is the rotational movement imo. getting yourself from the slight twist into a straight position is really brutal
You’re putting out great quality content and are so kind and welcoming and encouraging. Really happy for you in your health and career and wish you all the best!
I can do a one arm pushup without training any other variations than normal pushups. But when you try to unlock the one arm pushup as fast as possible, these variations are useful.
I really like the chill approach to teaching that stuff, makes the idea of doing something like that a lot more approachable. Been building to it for a bit, right now am between triangle and archer pushups. You and the stay flexy guy are my inspiration to getting back into excercise. So, thank you for that :)
yes I do wacth your video works 63 so been nice journey was doing 2000 a week hurt my self went adjusting to 500 a week doing well thanks my friend positive week terry d
I am trying to get stronger. I’m used to doing push ups with my elbows outwards. I guess that’s wrong. So every morning I have been using the bathroom sink which is lower to try to build up doing push-ups with my elbows in. Every week I move my feet further back. I hope soon I can use something half as tall and then the floor. I have monkey bars outside for the grandkids. Oh how I can’t wait to do pull-ups in front of them!
"All your friends are sure to be impressed! They're sure to be..." *shows sc of friend replying w 'idc lol' to being able to do one arm push ups* HAIYAAAAAA

A few respectful criticisms, the reliance on a super wide stance and limited range of motion significantly reduces the difficulty of the movement and giving you’re only pushing 50% of your total body weight in any push up a strict variation isn’t exactly unreasonable. The balance is the hard part, making it too easy removes any unique benefit. Training both sides evenly is also just pedantic ocd, everyone has a strong side genetically that should be trained to its potential if you want to maximise your real world strength , equally, if you do want to mitigate imbalances, it makes more sense to do higher reps on the weaker side, not arbitrarily assume they can manage the same load with equal form and tension. It ends up being a best of neither scenario where you’re not fully counter balancing your weak side nor actualising the strength of your strong side
I could kiss you. I've been trying to do a one armed pushup for years and could never get past fingers touching and inclined pushups. Now I have the tools!!
@@myriammanai6758 thanks :) over my life of training I've reformed to not be a part of the statistic mentioned, and instead go against the grain and become more functional 😆🤙🏼 Hope you have a great week and wishing you all the best on your journey Myriam 💯
I noticed that I just have a little bit bigger biceps and a little more strenght on my right arm and a little bit more strenght and usually put more weight when standing on my left leg, probably just balancing the upper imbalance 🤷🏻♀️🤔? Can I train more the left arm and the right leg, or it is just better to do not change the aequilibrium cause I am an adult?
Now I'm curious if it's possible to have enough leg and core strength to do a no armed "push up". I doubt it because then you would be fighting your entire body weight on the fulcrum of your feet. So i *think* it would effectively be multiple times your body weight. But idk the formula for that.
Train to be able to do more of the normal pushups. That's why he teaches that the goal is 3 sets of 25 normal (see the training guide he put in the video) before you go on to the next progression. And do the next progression with the goal he lists before going on to the next one on the list. That's important because you're not just training your arm muscles, you're training many muscles, ligaments and joints to be able to do the advanced move. Skipping ahead before you're strong enough can lead to bad form and injury.
It is easier then you think After about 2 days of these exercises I can do a one arm push up but im going to keep doing this until I can do the one arm push up like it’s nothing

Hampton,which one of these push up progression is similar( in difficulty) to a dip.
@@sheetmusicpianofied8153 it might be semi-planche or pike pushups, the movement of a dip is replicated best by those variations
@@biko9824 what do you mean by semi planche?
Can I ask what I can do to reduce shakiness when muscles are engaged/struggling a little
U dont seem so strong but about me ur a savage at strenght

I cant even do a modified push, let alone one hand push ups.
But your videos give me so much joy, that I couldn't resist watching it!
Excuse me but whats a modified pushup?
@@unknown69801 on knees
try a partial range of motion so you can progress, you can do it
I did 8 pushups on knee,6 rep,and now I can 8 pushups hand release,6 reps...I will try this,too!
He has lots of videos showing that there are even easier variations that let you build up to harder exercises, like pushing against a wall or table.
"Otherwise you'd be so BIASED dude."
Why do I feel guilty over something I didn't do? lol
Because disappointing Hampton would be one of the worst things I could do
I really admire how humble and meek you are💪🏼
Man is so humble he makes shorts in flip flops...
For someone who still does knee pushups. This is a long way, but achievable now, thanks to the explanation
Dude you could not have released this at a better time for me. THANK YOU HAMPTON!! ❤️😀

Thank you Hampton! I can now work towards realistically achieving what I always wanted to try since seeing Tommy the Green Ranger do it decades ago.
Second short of yours I'm watching and I got to say, I love your style of content creation and delivery. Really enjoyable and informative.
I'm so excited for him to get back to doing the content regularly.❤
You’re freakin amazing Hampton thank you for all you do haha
Thanks man, this is really exciting! I’ll try this tomorrow morning- slowly of course, building up the first few steps :)
The little Hamptons on the top are so cuuuute
You’re so cool, thank you so much for making these. You inspire me❤
I will forever love your advice

I'm never going to be biased again. Love u
I only just found this channel 5 minutes ago and it's already my new favorite
One arm push-ups that don’t look like you’re twisting your spine like a corkscrew, hallelujah praise the form!
yoooo im so glad i found your channel!
I did my first one arm push up last year because of you!

Dont do pushups fully tucked in, try to make it like an arrow with your body, good luck on your journey
Good luck !!! Don't give up you're more capable than you think !!! 💪💪
Keep on keeping on 🔥
It's not "wrong" to turn your elbows out, but in the long run, you'll be able to push more weight with the elbows further in.
“Otherwise, you’ll be so biased dude.” LOL! Love it!
I love the progressions at the top of the vid
'One arm high five that's actually a regular high five' to you too Dude! 😂✋️🙏👍
A one armed push up is easier to learn than a three armed push up
One of your very best, Hampton!

Great video as always. Much love ❤❤
Did my first one-armed push up today. (Actually, I did three on each arm.) Got there pretty much like this.
Love this dude
Love your content bro keep up the great work
Thanks my friend - will do!

It's been a year, thank you for teaching us, I can do one Knuckle push up
I used to be able to do one arm pushups when I was a kid because I saw Batman do one and I wanted to be like Batman lol.
Coming here to say, ye , it works. I can do a 1 arm push up now
Goodness! You make archer push ups look easy.
I am sweating just by watching this video

A good variation if u still can't do one arm pushups is knee one arm pushups
the best Part is "have an beatifull Day"
"So biased dude.." 😂

My problem with one arm push up is my shoulder tries to leave my socket joint
This new Era of shorts is weird man. You can find these pure diamonds in a mountain of nothing
the confusion at the end :D
1. You and your videos are f’in awesome.
2. How can you be so damn strong yet not be built like a truck?
Exactly for that reason, he trains for pure strength, not size 😆

I did like 2 one hand push up mine core is hurting I can feel it.
Wide stance one arm out push up looked painfully hard
I noticed that I just have a little bit bigger biceps and a little more strenght on my right arm and a little bit more strenght and usually put more weight when standing on my left leg, probably just balancing the upper imbalance 🤷🏻♀️🤔? Can I train more the left arm and the right leg, or it is just better to do not change the aequilibrium cause I am an adult?
What about no hands pushups??? Just curious about how you build up to those
Impressive video!!!
Thank you !!!
You're very welcome! Thanks for being here!
Uggh, fine, I'll subscribe! :p
NGL I thought those little things in the thumbnail were birds. XD

Not sure what you mean. Lifting your body by extending your feet? They'd simply slip over the ground. You'd have to fix your feet to the ground.
I can do max 15-20 clean pushups should i train for one arm pushups or should i train for more normal pushups
Train to be able to do more of the normal pushups. That's why he teaches that the goal is 3 sets of 25 normal (see the training guide he put in the video) before you go on to the next progression.

It is easier then you think
After about 2 days of these exercises I can do a one arm push up but im going to keep doing this until I can do the one arm push up like it’s nothing
Nothing really changes physiologically in 2 days. You had the requisite strength already.
My friends barely got impressed when I showed them a one-arm pushup...
I learnt a one arm pushup in less then 30 minutes...
I want to learn the pistol squat soon, gonna need a lot of strength
Keep forgetting how ridiculously strong Hampton is
Guys I can do 4 one hand push ups in my right arm but barely can do in my left one i used to 1 or 2 in my left but In a few days I cant
