This is awesome, Dominik! People definitely rush progressions, and I think most are surprised at how hard a BASIC push up and pull are when done with proper scapular position and control. In my opinion, developing proper scapular control and good mechanics is the BEST way to progress a basic exercise. Most people should only start messing around with advanced stuff when they can competently perform the basics. In the process, they will build a ton of muscle. Great video!
Would you be up for doing some TH-cam live streams of your training sessions during this social distancing? It would make the days a lot more interesting!
I'm going to apply this idea to my archer pushups - I find that my shoulders ride up with those also. Back to close pushups until I'm stronger! Edit: you mentioned it!
Thank you Dominik for putting this out there. Many Beginners AND Advanced mess up their shoulders doing this. Please cover Crossfit's ridiculous Kip Up pushups they pass as Pullups next if you didn't already.
Yeah it's ridiculous. Just listen to your own body. I do dips, and people say they're bad. I do one arm pushups, and people say they're bad. I do leg raises, and people say they're bad. But really there's a simple rule to it: If you can do them consistently without pain or discomfort, you're good.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Ah I totally agree mate people saying "don't do this" or don't do that" I mean if they work the particular body part who cares? Good form and consistency is what matters, leg raises are apart of my workout routine too mate and my abs have come through a lot! Obvs I do a lot more but still I get that burn.
@@keiranbygate3752 Exactly. Yeah when you do leg raises with an arched back to compensate, you fuck it up. Yeah when you do wide dips below 90 degrees, you fuck up your shoulders. Yeah when you do pushups leaning into your delts, your fuck them up. But that's a matter of poor form, not of a poor exercise. I've done a deadlift with poor form once as a test. Felt it immediately. Trust me, your body warns you when you're screwing it up. All you need to do is recognise what that warning feels like.
@@sebastianalvarez1246 People say all sorts of shit. Flys, leg raises, dips, pushups, deadlift, lateral raises, and wide grip neck pull ups all have been in my routines for six years now with no injuries, and yet all have been called bad by some tard or the other. Don't pay that any heed. Every body is different, so stick to good form, and do what works for you. Leg raises are a fine exercise, hell I did 'em yesterday.
Its relieving that he is making a video not just about the next hardest move like everyone seems to do but to call to attention the problem with many peoples form
I needed this I've been going for the pistol squat and the one arm push up I found problems in both and now I have found the video to fix the one arm push up
The one arm push up is a very interesting exercise because doing one bad is hard but doable, and doing one good is extremely difficult. The interest of this exercice is in my opinion not to gain the ability to become very strong in the shoulders/triceps/chest, but to gain good control, mobility, flexibility. Being able to do decent one arm push ups, with shoulder depression, straight torso, legs close, not apart, the other arm aside the body, means that you have very solid shoulders. Not only strong, but also flexible. As long as you do not get hurt, you make sure to become more injury proof.
Hey thanks man! Since I have to train at home I started doing one arm pushups but I felt something was wrong. I'll work on building more strenght till I get back to this excercise and I'll improve my form once I'll be able to do em
You will lack in inner chest after a while though.. for outer chest definately squeeze the armpits. For Inner pec i focus more on the elbows like imagine having no forearms.
Sean Voncken that is a myth with the outer chest and inner chest shit it just works in the way the fibers are like upper and lower not inner and outer that’s not how things work Like when doing a push up it works each fiber of the chest from insertion to origin and the way your arms are control what part of the chest you’re going to work but any other way you’re going to work the whole chest
@@calisthenicsbeliever7602 Yes, but you will plato if you don't have full adduction exercises for the inner chest. I know that inner chest isn't really a seperate part of the chest, but you can definately influence it and if you don't, you will plato.
It's just a cool party trick. So it's something to aim for being able to do any day. But once u get it down, then move on to more challenging things like u guys are now doing.
Decline push-ups are great (hit the upper chest with a little more emphasis, among other muscles). So are adduction (for the chest) and Hindu push-ups (for the shoulders and triceps). If you're up for it, Of course you can also implement plyometrics or even 1 1/2 reps. There are so many ways to make push-ups easier or harder. You can do dips with a couple of sturdy chairs or a counter corner to hit the lower chest and triceps, too. : )
I also feel like one arm push ups are incredibly hard to do right. Also they don't offer the best carry over to other exercises. Basically progressing with pike push ups and pseudo planche push ups is everything you need.
@Sean Francis Waters Lancaster Yes, if done with good form one arm push ups are a great exercise too. It's just generally easier to progress with pseudo planche push ups and pike push ups.
@Sean Francis Waters Lancaster I think weighted pushups or PPPU are better tho. Easier to do right, and harder to fuck up your shoulders, while still giving good results.
Good advice , I have been working really hard on the real one arm push up , it's not something that everyone would achieve , it's way easier to do it with feet apart , but the real form it's just unique.
I don't know If I can maintain scapular depression, but I'm not stupid enough to jump right into an exercise I lack strength for. This is what regressions are for. You don't avoid the exercise, you make it easier so you don't hurt yourself.
Yo! A fan from the old days here! Remember seeing one of your videos where you used "none shall pass" song (I think it was push ups progression video) Had a very big inpact on me and my journey as well as my perception of training itself What do you do these days Dominik? Are you sponsored? Very curious how the life's been for you Remember seeing you as that lone wolf training in his sanctuary striving for perfection with countless training methods and exercises I had never heard of! Cheers from Poland!!!
Thank you for this video. It is great advice. I just started doing calisthenics and now I know what form to use for pushups to work my way up to perfect one arm pushups.
One arm push ups are supremely important for getting crazy jacked pec, delts and triceps. I went to a double bodyweight bench with the simple feet shoulder width one arm push up, when I could do 50 of them each arm, I got enviably jacked delts and triceps and thick dense pecs. Decided to test my bench, I bench 445 lbs at 95kilo bodyweight after a week of bench press technique training. You are absolutely right that scapular depression changes the form drastically. For the longest time my right arm did oapu with scapular depression while my left arm did not. How did I fix it? I did one or two set till failure with the left arm with elbows going to the side, not to the back. Then I did GTG with scapula depressed oapu. For 2 months I kept failing on every attempt but I gained a lot of muscle within that time frame, and then I finally got it.
I began to do Archer pushups a few days ago and my left shoulder got a slight clicking sensation at some times while doing it. Now I know why . Thx bro 👍
Thanks Dominik sky for this precious advice. I have been confused about protraction vs retraction and whether its okay to compromise shoulder depression. You gave a perfectly clear answer which resonates with my experience. I used to do 60 pushups but on advice of calisthenics movement when I aimed for protraction and depression, my numbers went down considerably. Now I feel uncomfortable and risky in any loose form. However, I have two specific questions: 1- With the protracted version of pushups, I feel more load on my shoulders. I also feel that the shoulders have to go through a larger range of motion. Which means I needed to work on my shoulder mobility. what do you think? 2- I feel that with the protracted version, range of motion for the chest muscles is reduced. Would not it be ideal if we could protract when we go up and retract when we go down? Thanks and love from Pakistan!
last time i did a 1 arm push up has been a while. i do it really rarely just to see if i have become more stable and strong. i use knee one arm push ups to train the form. but mostly i just load my backpack with some weight around 15/20 kg and do those instead. it's hard to mange 2 arms. because after you did one arm when it's the other arm's turn you're already a bit fatigued. but it's not my goal to master the 1 arm push up yet. planche hold is the main goal for me right now.
I watched this video back when it came out. Back in march I would struggle to lift myself from the floor with one arm so I wasn't really going for OAPs, but I tried again this week after a bit too much quarantine training. I could do three with each arm, full range of motion from the floor up to full scapular protraction and gently back to the floor. I've been filming myself also to work on my form: I can get full scapular depression during the whole movement on both sides, but there's a bit of soulder abduction on my left arm and core stabilization could be more consistant. I was looking info on OAP form, remembered this video and found it most helpful. I'm going to incorporate some progression into OAP. I think I might be ready for that - bilateral push ups are starting to get a bit too easy and there's a clear strength imbalance that I need to adress. I write this not to boast, but to thank you for the good content.
thank you so much im training for special forces in the military and was doing the bad formed one arm push up and my shoulders were hurting but i shrugged it off but now i understand why, this video saved me from a shoulder injury set back thanks bro
Thank you for this, I surprisingly trained my regressions well enough to avoid the incorrect form without knowing what I was trying to avoid that being said I’m like 5’10 and 120 lb so I’m not particularly heavy.
I think you are one of the top athletes in the world right now. Strong as a bull,agile as a cat and capable of real difficult skills! your opinion. is there some transfer from 1 arm pu to planche or vice versa? thanks Dominik
Single arm chin-ups are definitely harder, one arm pushups are easy enough to make a variation for training at least imo, it activates the triceps very well.
Thank you for the information i injured my knees while doin pistol squats and afraid of to injure my arms i quit oa push ups workin for better form thank you!!!
Scapula is depressed indirectly as a result of trying to maintain proper form. Also, those that do one arm one leg push ups, their form is perfect in everyway imaginable, including scapular depression.
@@DominikSky1 But can you do a one arm one leg push up with a non retracted scapula? I don't think so. Yeah people are often so seduced by the idea to be able to do one rep of oapu that they compromise the form however they see fit. However, the very act of trying to keep the torso parallel to floor makes sure that your scapula is retracted.
Speak not of Jesus or God in vain. Instead turn to the LORD be steadfast to him and believe that Jesus died for you that you may have everlasting life in heaven
It's curious this popped up on my feed. A few months ago (on march of 2021) I injured my left shoulder doing 1APUs. This explains a lot. I'm good already and back into training. I wish I would've seem this before, though.
I am working on doing finger push ups and wanted to eventually transitioned to one arm 2 finger push ups a la Bruce Lee... Interested to hear what you have to say on the subject
did them a lot in the past... Just have depressionj in mind =D but if you focus on doing general exercises good for pressing and work on finger strength you'll will have overall greater strength development and still get what you want. I could do one arm Bruce lee pushups 10 years ago and still can but performing one arm pushups was NEVER a part of my training...
@@DominikSky1 Good to know, thanks for the answer man. I think Ill follow your guidelines and test my 1 arm push ups once in a while but focus the bulk of my training or regular push ups
I agree with what you said in this video but for the sake of curiosity do you think it would be possible to train a single arm push up leaning in the other direction eg more like the motion of throwing punch (cross body one, not a jab). It seems to me that part of the problem that creates that vulnerable shoulder position is that we all tend to lean and look towards the other hand? I’m thinking maybe if you looked towards your pushing hand and elevated on a small box or platform it would allow you to lower your torso (kind of like a mini twist) and then the pushing motion would better mimic the kind of torque you would find in the bench press (spreading the bar as you push away and bending it as you lower etc) I also notice that breakdancers tend to hold a similar position to what I’m trying to describe too when they do that one hand rotation ( I think it’s called turtle or something when they hop or spin in a circle). Not sure what you think of that but I thought I’d share my thought. Regardless great content as always 👍 stay safe
Great video, great explanation, essential advice regarding one-arm push-ups and pushing exercises in general. But, what's up with the click-baiting titles? I don't think they are necessary nor helpful. Liked the video though.
If the message is good and the intention is pure why should I not try to reach as many people as possible for them to make some changes and train in a smarter way... =) thanks for quality feedback!
Hmm, I'll have to check my scapular depression when doing these. I think it's ok, but never really payed it much thought. Thanks. Also, get a space heater, I can see your breath!

@@DominikSky1 Good to know, thanks for the answer man. I think Ill follow your guidelines and test my 1 arm push ups once in a while but focus the bulk of my training or regular push ups
Hey Dominik can you do video about wrist pain while doing pushups
Awesome video.
i felt most pain in pulse with exercise and others. U can doing one video especificy about this ? please ^
Thank you bro 👍🏼
Thanks so much for the video. I was doing one arms wrong this whole time
I agree with what you said in this video but for the sake of curiosity do you think it would be possible to train a single arm push up leaning in the other direction eg more like the motion of throwing punch (cross body one, not a jab). It seems to me that part of the problem that creates that vulnerable shoulder position is that we all tend to lean and look towards the other hand? I’m thinking maybe if you looked towards your pushing hand and elevated on a small box or platform it would allow you to lower your torso (kind of like a mini twist) and then the pushing motion would better mimic the kind of torque you would find in the bench press (spreading the bar as you push away and bending it as you lower etc) I also notice that breakdancers tend to hold a similar position to what I’m trying to describe too when they do that one hand rotation ( I think it’s called turtle or something when they hop or spin in a circle). Not sure what you think of that but I thought I’d share my thought. Regardless great content as always 👍 stay safe
Great video, great explanation, essential advice regarding one-arm push-ups and pushing exercises in general. But, what's up with the click-baiting titles? I don't think they are necessary nor helpful. Liked the video though.
If the message is good and the intention is pure why should I not try to reach as many people as possible for them to make some changes and train in a smarter way... =) thanks for quality feedback!
Thanks men, jou realy help whit this kind of videos
Hmm, I'll have to check my scapular depression when doing these. I think it's ok, but never really payed it much thought. Thanks.
Also, get a space heater, I can see your breath!
key takeaway:- Depression is good for shoulder health!
Nice video bro, thanks for the info :)
