How to Do a Pushup Video

by Integrated Fitness on October 16, 2011

Hey guys we are back talking about pushups. I want to talk about where i see a lot of problems happen. When you see a good pushup. You generally see something that looks very simplistic, very simple. Ok. I want you thinking to take away tension from your shoulder.

We don’t want tension. I don’t want your elbows to start coming forward. I see this all the time. Its difficult to get full range of motion. I want your elbows to come back just a little bit. That will allow you to get all the way down to the ground. Your chest touches the ground. Drive back up. You will use a lot more triceps which is a good thing. Your lats will be turned on. The other piece that is very important.

You want your stomach and your gluteus to be tightened so that you can maintain your core stability. So when you come down, tighten you stomach tighten your gluteus, come back down and you have a good pushup
