@@MovementProjectPT For me, the perfect set is (weights ) 40 seconds and 8 or nine SLOW reps, with enough for one more to fail. I wont go to fail. Go 1 rep short. Cuz I',m 70+. opinions?

(1) a lightbulb went off in my brain when you said the problem is any hand/elbow position that restricts the shoulders' external rotation on the descent. omg i finally get it. (2) i LOVE the idea of regressing the pushup -- not by using the knees or an incline -- but by doing just the top half of the pushup with the "plus" -- to progressively build the serratus up to do its job of protecting the rotator cuffs. (i've been doing isolated serratus work, and have been feeling like i'm getting nowhere with it. but your method integrates the serratus strengthening into a more meaningful movement pattern (the pushup itself), while still keeping my poor rotator cuffs safe, and giving me the chance to FEEL when i'm strong enough to go lower.) i've seen dozens of pushup-form videos on youtube. i gotta say that for shoulder-challenged people like me, this video is one of the best. thank you! instant sub :-)

Thank you! finally an expert actually agrees with me in the sense that we're not supposed to keep our shoulders packed (down and back) the entire time of a push up, among other exercises. It felt like shit to do yet most body building gurus swear by shoulder packing. I've been saying pack the shoulders at the bottom portion but yes, you need to round your shoulders at the top, I don't have shoulder pain when i do things like cable lat pullovers but ive developed sholder crunching upon each rotation during that, i.e. crepitus (but no pain during) so i dont know iff all the years of shoulder packing the entires ranges of motion all these years led to that crunching or not.

@MovementProjectPT

Thanks for the comment! "Packing" the shoulders can play a roll at the bottom position and for trying to work on a max for bench (for example). But it is absolutely a missing component in most training program. Look at boxers, they have shredded Serratus anterior muscles because they are always trying to extend their reach as much as possible for punching. Gotta train it!

Research shows that there is a point where adding more volume (repetitions x weight) actually is counterproductive. It is thought to be in that 20 set per week range. Even if you are doing sets of 25, that would be 28 sets in 1 day! I'd rather see you back your reps down and add resistance to your push up with a back pack, etc. Thanks for the comment!

I´m just experiencing exactly what you describe about the rotator and it has been really frustrating as it is keeping me out of my workout. I´m sure this information will serve me well, Thank you. Also, I have a question about the different ways you can perform a push up. You mention how different ways to place your arms (backwards for example), may harm you, but also that they workout different muscles. I sometimes try to target lower or upper chest, and I would like to know under which conditions it is fine to apply this type of hand position. Maybe a video on it would be great :D.

@MovementProjectPT

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the comment! Your question is a good one but a complicated one. Different arm positions will place different loads on different muscles and even different parts of the same muscle. There are many things that can be contributing to your rotator cuff/shoulder pain so without evaluating you I can't offer specific advice but only general. In order to effectively target the upper and lower chest with a push up, the angle of the body is more important than the hand position. SO feet on a chair or bed will hit upper chest. It is difficult to hit lower chest with push ups but there are ways :) In addition, maximizing squeeze into the floor of the hands toward one another will make a big difference.

A Question: When we are at the bottom we contract the shoulder blades, and keep them locked as we start pushing up, and at the top of the movement we do the "push up plus", or right at the beginning of the upward movement (when we start to pushing up) do we start to separate the shoulder blades?

@MovementProjectPT

Жыл бұрын

Great question! The natural movement of the shoulder blade would be for it to gradually separate and "protract" as you go up. If more of your problem is at the bottom, I'd recommend holding them together longer for stability. If the problem is the top, get the separation happening sooner. Good Luck!

Anything that goes beyond your elbow is more than just your classic shoulder structures. Likely some nerve tension involvement from the position.

You have an arched lower back throughout the push-up which places additional stress on your rotator cuff. In other words, keep your abs engaged and the back straight. Then make a before and after video and post it.... I'm sure it will do well!

​@@MovementProjectPT I actually been always in some kind of routine, either weights, stretching, in my youth, boxing (learned to skip rope, and also that it is more blessed to give, than to recrive) and when covid got her,e it was home workouts, stairs, pushups, and pullups.. and walk my a off. Start with a routine that doesn't make you almost die, but get the pulse at 115 for 25- 30 mins.. then push from there. a hUGE cardio challenge for me today is to work the heavy punching bag for 3 three minute rounds. very tiring. . but super cardio

It really is crazy. My video is not a variation, rather, it shows you the muscles most important and responsible for safe pain free push ups. Along with how to work them. You can do other pushup techniques, but these muscles remain critical.

Thanks. I'm so fucking dumb, I never look up proper technique and I fucked up every part of my body. Shoulder bursitis for 3 years, can't do pushups, finally after 2 more years figured out maybe there's something I'm doing wrong. Just keeping my elbows close to my body and have the palm lower did the trick, simple enough. I used to put the palm above my shoulder and with my elbows rotated out that must have been what messed up my shoulders. Hopefully I learnt from this experience and will keep exercising safely...

Hello, Last 2 years I've been exercising 100 push ups without warm ups and proper form everyday. A months later (still doing 100 push ups without proper form) I feel like my arms my hips are shaking and I cant even do one push up anymore. When I try doing a push up today I cant anymore because the tremors are severe. I always wanted to go to the gym but because of this tremors I am embarrassed because I cant lift any kinds of weight without shaking. I cant do anything to achieve my dream body. Its really sad, I really hope you can give me a suggestion for my condition thanks :)

If you went from 100 push-ups to 0 and you have tremors, I would definitely see a physician for a work up! That is not normal

Why is your back severely rounding at the top? I've been told that's bad and that shoulder blades should be retracted but back shouldn't be rounded as that rounds shoulders forward too?

Hi! So whenever I do pushups now for some reason I think the muscle called deltoid( I'm not sure but it is below mu shoulder) starts hurting on both arms. It first started on my left and now on my right too. This never happened to me before so do you maybe know why?

@MovementProjectPT

Typically that is referred pain from the rotator cuff. It could be due to overuse or change in mechanics. Try the things I recommend in the video for a few weeks and let me know how it works out

Is there a reason you are trying to do as many as possible in one minute? At 1 push up every 1.58 seconds, it's essentially impossible to maintain quality form and safe biomechanics. I'd rather you try to maximize time under tension. Try my TUT (Time under tension) push up challenge : kzread.info/dash/bejne/dGyFzphqYqbAdKQ.html

Bruh I already knew before this I came to this vid because I thought U had to do something else

In a bench press the shoulder blades don't move. So doesn't that mean that bench pressing will cause this problem?

@MovementProjectPT

Жыл бұрын

You could do a push up with a similar philosophy if you want. The reason they don't move in the bench is because you are trying to isolate the chest and locking the blades gives you a firmer foundation to move more weight. This doesn't mean it will cause a problem. It does mean that the bench press is NOT an exercise that will help a shoulder problem. I like to do occasional shoulder blade presses on the bench to work serratus anterior.
