Yes, we should not do more push ups, instead we should try one arm push up, full planche push up, iron finger push up, or at least weighted push up, explosive push up, diamond push up, archer push up, pseudo push up :)
My thoughs exactly! At first I thought 'well here we go again with the next hype' but I was pleasantly surprised. I need to work on shoulder mobility to do a proper vertical handstand instead of a banana one and this may be the ticket.
I have been an athlete my whole life. I quit training for about 2 years once I met the mother of my child. After my daughter was born I had a hard time getting a routine again. I decided to start getting more educated on the science of fitness so I could become more efficient in the small windows I have as a parent. Your channel has been a god send. My horse stance has gotten solid even with my 2 year old trying to climb all over me and I'm excited to start reverse push ups today. I appreciate everything you do here. It's helping me take back my Health and be better for my Daughter.
5:35 My mind is blown. So simple, but I never thought about doing this. Thank you. For me, one backbend pushup takes about the same effort as 5 pushups. So, it would have to be a 100/day backbend pushup challenge. But I ain’t ready for that either.
Your advice about balancing the standard push through also incorporating the spinal bridge in a previous video was a great game changer for me. Definitely reduced my shoulder tightness. I'd been neglecting that. 👏
This is without a doubt the best fitness channel on TH-cam and that says a lot. If you can do 100 pushup then why not branch off and start doing harder variations? It's so logical yet many don't get it including myself. Keep challenging different and often not used muscle groups.. its common sense but people always overlook it. This is the ultimate. Appreciate your insights.
for the past 30 years I have Beat my 62 yr body up... mx tracks, snowboarding, work, ect... my spine and hips are blasted out and my body needs a rebuild. life is so awesome. but now its time for me to rebuild, I love the sound principles you teach and all your guidance is appreciated. Namaste.
Glad I found your channel, the hooks are in, considering holistic strength work. I recently got a fit platform for pull-ups, dips, and other dynamic ways to work out at home since I decided I'm done with the standard gym. I'm 47 and looking to revamp my approach to strength and fitness.
Your on I am going to try this out starting today should work perfectly with my carries, ruck and chin up routine. Thank you sir for adding some spice to the day.
I’m one of those cadets in there feels nostalgic seeing myself there with my buddies and rest in peace Davis, also thank you for the opportunity to go there lee
You're so right. I was abusing my shoulders with push-ups and bench press until they gave up and ended up with a bad injury that lasted a whole tear and I lost all my gains
Im shocked after every video. Just doing handstands as recommended has increased my shoulder size and strength. The pullup recommendation has changed my pullup game and core completely. And now your pushup videos are rewriting my daily PT fundamentals. Since I changed to focusing on bodyweight mastery and gymnastic style workouts, my gains have skyrocketed.
You are amazing, I wish I had you training me 20 years ago before I dislocated my shoulders multiples times due to a rigid and repetitive workout regime.
I’m having a hard time breaking up with the bench press at age 51. I know it’s a shoulder risk, and not the greatest for chest development but I love it so. It’s mental. It’s me feeling like I’m still young. One day I know my shoulders will say no more, but until then....
wow this is really informative, I will implement the bridge push ups for sure, I am finding after several years of calisthenics my shoulders are becoming tight as you described, thank you for sharing some other variations to negate this and to fix this problem!
*_So glad I saw this video. I've been training every day for 30 minutes to 1 hour for full planch pushups. I've been doing this everyday ever since the beginning of the year January 1st 2023. Hoping to achieve the full planch Pushup by the end of this 2023. Going to start applying this tips in every pushup exercise I do. Awesome video &, even better tips!_*
If you are able to do 40 push ups in a row or more it's considered mastered and you don't need do any more unless you want to go for endurance but you should move on to harder excirses as well
This is the most well explained, well-versed and in-depth videos I never thought I'd find. Even after 6 years of parkour, and learning about movements, I never once has thought about doing the simple motion you mentioned here - and it clicked. Definitely going to sub. Thanks for the great listen
Unfortunately I'm gonna be doing a lot of pushups since I want to max the ACFT, but now I'll incorporate bridge pushups as well. It's also nice to find calisthenic back exercises that truly require NO equipment, so thanks
I’m watching this as I have a torn shoulder that I’m sure came from being very tight due to years of bench press and push-ups. Thank you for the video. You have helped me look beyond basic movements.
Hi Jerome, I just posted a comment on shoulder recovery here and saw your comment. Have you found some helpful exercises to help recovery? I injured it in BJJ training and does not seem to fully heal...
🔥🔥🔥 This was the answer a lot of people have been waiting for, including myself. I've been doing push-ups all my life, I'm physically fit naturally but over the years, and I'm 38 years old, I've noticed I have a lot of shoulder and elbow pain lately and it's concerning. I work construction as well, so that can be a part of it for sure, a lot of impact. All these years there's been that little voice in the back of my head that says "you should be doing warm-up reps with a good stretch routine before any exercise, as well as before work”. Awesome video!!! I subscribed a couple weeks ago.
Great video, you really made me look at this from an alternative perspective and everything that you said makes a lot of sense. I've already injured myself overdoing push ups, but this has given me alternatives to explore once I'm healed. Thank you
As a veteran, I've learned so many things as to why some of my injuries are the way they are. You are an amazing teacher... and I'm subscribing to learn everything I can from here out.
I’ve never heard of backwards push ups, 🤯 my left shoulder always hurts when I do push ups, so this is something I’m going to try, just found this channel and I think is amazing, thanks for the great info, keep up the great work
This is the smartest video I've watched all day! I have long arms and I've always hated pushups but being ex military I had to do them. I prefer pull ups, wall handstands and working on bridges 💪🏾
Basically having a lot of these different calisthenics type exercises that have different angles in joint movement and stabilization are the way to go 💪🏼I enjoy calisthenics very much. When I test something different, it doesn’t feel wrong. It only feels like I need to change my range of motion until a build the strength to stabilize myself in those positions/tempo until those positions build strength as well. Then I can start increasing my range of motion.
Thank you sa, will give it a try. Got this road hill (or more like incline) i walk up backwards in stages now. Ive found it helps my balance a lot. Amazing all those muscles you never knew you had until find them!
I was gone deny this because I like push ups , but this is true because I noticed my shoulders started hurting when I was doing a lot of pushups, and when I stopped it stopped and when I started back it comes back if I over due them , Good info
I wish this video existed in 2013.. I struggled with dislocating shoulders, which prevented me from ever being comfortable with my hand raised up high. I'm from a boxing background, so I always knew pushups could be the reason. I'd never lost a pushup challenge, I could do 500 easy, but not a single pullup, on any grip. I even stumbled upon bridges to train for pull ups but I thought doing push ups backwards isn't a thing and might injure me further. I lost out on a career just because I couldn't do pull ups, I could do everything else and I'm 6'4. Better late than never, I guess, thanks for speaking out.
well that described me. my shoulders became so tight that i couldn't even wash the back of my neck with my right hand. my arm just couldn't move that far backwards. i realized it was necessary for me to do pulling exercises like rows to balance things out and also hanging stretches to keep the muscles lose and free. but before i got there i did tear my rotator cuff. lost two years of bball completely and couldn't serve when i played tennis over the same stretch of time. ugh... doctors gave no advice on how to train or avoid these injuries. had to go to YT to figure it out. thanks for putting out good info like this.
Actually just started my workout journey this February glad i found this video cuz my workout mainly consists of pushups but i guess ill focus going to 20 reps of pushups until i go to a different variation

How do I join you?
Can you recommend, or help find good coaches in the Kansas City area?
Yes, we should not do more push ups, instead we should try one arm push up, full planche push up, iron finger push up, or at least weighted push up, explosive push up, diamond push up, archer push up, pseudo push up :)
I would like to do these exercises, but I have a lot of shoulder pain, Should I wait until my pain goes away before trying this?
Is there a specific way the elbow needs to travel when doing a back bridge pushup?
This actually ended up being way better then I thought. It was really nice hearing your words of wisdom.
My thoughs exactly! At first I thought 'well here we go again with the next hype' but I was pleasantly surprised. I need to work on shoulder mobility to do a proper vertical handstand instead of a banana one and this may be the ticket.
@@bigbattenberg this may be a reminder but, how are your handstands going? I'm learning them myself

That was brilliant! Really inspiring! Cheers!
Thanks, I appreciate your videos, let's keep on.. keeping on!
I very much approve of the way you always slip just a little bit of scripture into every video!! Keep it 1000%.
I agree!
Amen to that!
@ Elroy Jenquist I agree 100%
As an atheist I can say it's ok for me and makes the video better. I deeply respect religious people.
Agreed! I noticed that as well.

Great to hear from you
What a nice video, I’m glad a saw it just in time 👌🏻💪🏼
Great video….I learned so much…brilliant
Love this video! It confirmed some of my suspicions plus gave me some great ideas going forward!
You're so right. I was abusing my shoulders with push-ups and bench press until they gave up and ended up with a bad injury that lasted a whole tear and I lost all my gains
Thats tragic
How are you now?
Inspiring information and a wealth of anatomy. I appreciate your knowledge and encouragement.

Awesome video! Thanks!
First time I've heard someone say "while having fun" in this type of content video. So important.
I needed this after a few years of shoulder pain, and tennis elbow. Thank you!
Just great knowledge man!
great advice, ive been studying sustainable movements for 20 years, this is epic and thought out!
You are amazing, I wish I had you training me 20 years ago before I dislocated my shoulders multiples times due to a rigid and repetitive workout regime.
Oh Thank you so much, I never knew that!🙏👌
I’m having a hard time breaking up with the bench press at age 51. I know it’s a shoulder risk, and not the greatest for chest development but I love it so. It’s mental. It’s me feeling like I’m still young. One day I know my shoulders will say no more, but until then....
Are you doing stretching and mobility work for your shoulders as part of your routine? That could certainly mitigate..
Prevention is better than cure. Don't wait until it's too late.
Awesome this is an exceptional video thank you
My back snapped just looking at it 😮

Thanks and thanks for being here
I tried doing this set of 20 x5 on the two exercizes you have said and I feel like it was so much more significant than doing the basic push up.
Amazing sir👍🏻
Obviously right.🙌
Thank you sm sir.
Wish you all the best 💪 keep going.🤍

Thanks for sharing. It seems I've been mistaken 40 years since my 20's
Bulletproof shoulders now I gotta do this
Brilliant, thx
I was doing 100 pushups a day challenge, but after watching this i have decided to start the backward pushups from tomorrow‼️
Why would you even attempt it??? What is 100 of anything a day gona solve other then.wearing the shit out of joints
Progress?

glad i found this video cuz my workout mainly consists of pushups

Thank you, no wonder my shoulders have been stiff a lot and my upper back has been making a cracking sound whenever I inhale .
This is literally what I’ve been subconsciously searching for my whole life. 😮
My shoulders are trashed from being in the military. Recovery has been over a year so far since I injured both within a couple months of each other.
Backwards is noted! 👍
it took me two days to search you back. after rejecting to see so many videos yt algo bring me this.
