@SquatUniversity Hey what about wrist pain? When my palms/hands are open in the “up” position, I have tons of pain where the bottom of my hand meets my forearm. To where the pressure of my weight going down hurts. I can only do pushups with my hand in the knuckle position.
@@Cheesymoo If you're loading the weight directly down your forearm into the ground and still have pain in the heel of your palm that you can't get used to, then you probably just have thin hands and or low pain tolerance. There isn't much variation when it comes to palming the ground. Nothing wrong with closed fist pushup if that's more comfortable. Same thing.
Have you tried doing them on your knuckles? Because it sounds like you do them with the palm on the floor. I used to have that issue (not as bad as yours, though), but when I switched to knuckle pushups the wrists were fine.
For short term I would suggest first warming up your wrists with both rotation and dynamic stretching. And for the long term get more flexible wrists with passive stretching. Then I think you could do your 30 no problem. 🤗 Edit: and stretching both flexion and extension (palm on the floor and back of hand on the floor). And when stretching you don't need to have weight on them as well so sit on your knees or something, otherwise they come under unnecessary pressure.
I have been dealing with the worst pain ever in my neck and shoulder blade on the left side of my body since I slept bad on it. I just tried these exercises and I can feel it has targeted those areas of pain and I am so happy as this pain was getting me down I didn't know what else to try and here you are...thank you!!!
Can anyone please give me some input?when I workout I feel that my entire right side of my body is exhausted and it feels like it works much harder than my left side - I make sure that I'm placing emphasis on my left side but still doesn't help ☹️
You need to make sure you're working ALL the muscles in your arms and shoulders, doing multiple exercises (push, pull). If one section isn't getting exercised but another is, you're going to have shoulder pain
So many “personal trainers” do not understand the body at all, they just babysit the client by watching, giving encouragement, a few corrections maybe but really they don’t understand how to correct injuries, pain in areas and why the person his having pain, they just tell the client to avoid it and do something else instead. I wish more trainers actually understood anatomy, a weekend course should not be enough to call yourself a trainer this should be a university/college degree.
Flared elbows ain’t good form placing stress on shoulder joint rather than working the chest, instead retract shoulder blades on the decline and tuck elbows at a 45.
I had to give this a thumbs up even before finishing watching the video because at least it deals with this very important issue of shoulder pain becoming worse the more pushups one does. Shoulder problems are epidemic among folks in the 50s and above.
Literally experienced left anterior shoulder pain while doing a push-up today and wondered if Squat U had a video for this. Of course he does! I’m on it - thx for the advice 💪
@justinbeaver3433 Dosnt look like the girl is rotating her shoulders outward for better rom like the dude and her tempo is shit also the head shouldn't be facing straight down ive done thousands of pushups and found out this is how my shoulders work the best also squeeze your ass for every rep it helps activate your core all the way
@justinbeaver3433 I told you his heads looking straight down you gotta stay firm in your whole body during a pushup including flexing your glutes and your head will adapt good posture and look slightly forward because when you do that it activates your core the most he had good tempo and good elbow flare but even the dude in the video said he's on the right track not perfect you obviously don't know actual pushup form
I’m working on increasing my push-up numbers every day by one each day I do it. 4 times a week, exception being when I do a different big workout that day. I’m at 68 push-ups now, but I can only do 58 is one go. I usually separate them. But I do the same amount of squats.
i've done sloppy push ups too, and let me tell you, a proper push up is so much more difficult but so much more rewarding, because it's not about numbers, it's about effort. don't count a single push up if your chest doesn't gently touch the ground. but yeah for instability issues definitly work your overall muscles but in a gentle way to work out any instability issues, besides if you're gonna do only push ups you're gonna get overdeveloped front delts in comparison to the rest of your shoulders so really you should do everything else too. push ups is a great excercise but don't let it be your only one.
What type of trainer or doctor is he? Is there a specific focus I should know about? Would be nice to find someone with this intentionality and insight for a trainer.
Glad she's working out for herself however she is crazy who in their natural born right mind would touch the ground of the back area of a restaurant where they cook the food it has nothing but food and debris down there how she did that is beyond me admittedly it did look clean in her restaurant
I had a friend that he was doing push ups everywhere. Once, he took a piss at the urinal, and immediately started doing push ups right there. It's like, wtfk
Push-ups are for the people who really don’t give a fuck about social media. You’re not going to see significant muscle growth from them, but you’ll see the results from them yourself. At the start of the month you could only 20 in a row. Now you can do 100. Pushups are the definition of trust the process
@@bojangles5232 if you do push-ups until failure every single day, you will be able to go from 20 to 100 in a month. Like I said, you won’t see physical results in muscles bulging and shit but you will improve your strength
Not exactly true, decline and deficit pushups can take it to another level and you can alternate between triangle and wide pushups to increase the stretch in different locations. Sure, dips or presses are better for isolated hypertrophy but a pushup is going to always work better on overall tone and core strength more than either. I don't do 100+ in a day like I used to but I still try to end my routine with 25-50 decline pushups. Goated beginner and maintenance exercise.
I’m going to say this but it’s really weird. All my life I had shoulder pains when someone gave the advise to squeeze the butt like at the top of a deadlift. When I did that I was able to hit 30 reps with no issues and all chest tension+DOMS. That was the only issue and I have no idea how it worked 😅.
It seems like your shoulders were overcompensating and when you engaged your glutes, your core was able to stabilize from that and shift the work back onto your chest
Most likely you have a hip discrepancy, may that be an anterior tilt, or a lateral tilt or both. Squeezing your glutes brings your pelvis to neutral which then loads your shoulders evenly, I have a problem with an old so joint injury where my pelvis tilts laterally to the left and this causes my right lats/QL to be tight and overactive whilst the left side cannot contract at all. The only way it would is if I focused on squeezing glutes but was only a temporary fix as my pelvis would always shift again. Now I am going to hound lateral hip stability whilst opening up my lats from my hips from a door way lat stretch which a pelvis tilt in the other direction of the fibers of my lats lol. So the goal is for my body to crave neutrality so that I can finally pull with even tension instead of just one side being activated.
never, no one keep doing the right thing to go pain free, once the pain is gone they go back to bad habit and the pain return, then they wonder why they still have pain and forgot the thing that helped them... i know because i got a coworker DOING EXACTLY THAT
I would incure about her core, shoulder, elbow and hand position when she does push ups. It seems to me, it could be a lot more optimal and less risk for injury. If someone feel like they know or agree with me please inform me. 🤗 Okay I feel like she is getting better with her progress, but still.
I just want a way to test for all of these potential issues and build a physical therapy routine for everything found.. or better yet, find some routines to work through and graduate out of so that once they've all been completed, everything works appropriately.
Shout out @jaelyn453 for the opening stitched video & @muscleandmotion for the amazing anatomy graphics.
Looks good but only problem is that's exactly how you will get shoulder problems! Need to have hands somewhere next to armpits and elbows tucked in.
@@tonypearce6023 That's untrue. Elbows tucked in may be more comfortable for some, but elbows flared isn't inherently bad.
Well if it isn’t our arch nemesis, external shoulder rotation 😂

Gotta get those reps in!!!!!!
every time you think about it...
@@drjonesey5 not worth it parking lot is probably cleaner
You can give the floor a lick every push up so you can have a quick snack.
you with your folded belly like stacked pale pancakes sitting on a sweaty beaten up leather chair in your moms basement is WILDER tbh 😊
Screw the shoulder pain. I do 30 pushups and my wrists hurt the rest of the day
Have you tried doing them on your knuckles? Because it sounds like you do them with the palm on the floor.
I used to have that issue (not as bad as yours, though), but when I switched to knuckle pushups the wrists were fine.
@@agsiar but knuckles pushups r harder for me, n i feel like it hits moi biceps a little more, my count reduces to half
Maybe try push up bars.
Try wall push ups or plank to push ups. And fewer reps per set with a longer break in between is fine.
For short term I would suggest first warming up your wrists with both rotation and dynamic stretching. And for the long term get more flexible wrists with passive stretching. Then I think you could do your 30 no problem. 🤗
Edit: and stretching both flexion and extension (palm on the floor and back of hand on the floor). And when stretching you don't need to have weight on them as well so sit on your knees or something, otherwise they come under unnecessary pressure.
Push ups here, push ups there, push ups on the dirty floor at work, push ups everywhere 😅
Right? Not a dirty place I could think of than a restaurant floor
😂❤

Can you help on why I have right shoulder pain only, or weaker right shoulder during pull-ups
He’s done a lot of shorts in shoulder pain and pull up pain. I’ve been dealing with left shoulder pain that’s getting better because of his videos.
You need to make sure you're working ALL the muscles in your arms and shoulders, doing multiple exercises (push, pull). If one section isn't getting exercised but another is, you're going to have shoulder pain
@@shladez do you think it's fine if I just do pushup and pullups?

Man I need you as a my coach
Can you please tell us how often to do this? If we want to do push ups everyday, do we do the whole routine each time?
every other day or when you don't feel pain anymore
The one in the kitchen caught me off guard lol
Why?
And she didnt do one pushup in allll of her progress
Yeah even the pushups from the dude with "correct" form are ass 😂 you should look forward when all your muscles are in sync not down at the floor
