bodybuilding exercise: home workout – pushups (push-ups)
Pushups are one of the best all-around chest exercises you can do at home. Here is a video clip showing proper form. See my free website (no advertising either) for more workout tips: fitness.scoobysworkshop.com
Great to hear!
Spread out your hand placement more…experiment…
does my hand have to point in at an angle?
the farther your arms apart the more chest closer =triceps
awesome stuff. with this slow, controlled form it is harder, but definitely better.
on another note, i really like that bird noise in the background. whenever i hear it, it is so calming and peaceful
cheere.
3 do more man ! i know u can , make 20!
Now those are real push-ups. Screw those idiots who post videos of themselves bobbing their head 100 times a minute.
can some one tell me what push ups build,im 13 and i wanna get in better shap for hockey and if u wanted to know i play bantom cc.PLZ TELL ME
If u can also tell me a good work out for my age PLZ.
I never quite understood. When people do the ‘head bobbing’ pushups, do they really think they are working out their chest?
Personally, I think 13 is too young for bodybuilding. I think the best thing you could do to get in better shape for hockey is to either play more hockey or pick up a sport that work your upper body more and increase your endurance (like swimming).
is it good to do like push ups and sit ups u think.
oh and thanks by the way
my cuz is 13 but he really wants to get jacked should he do ur routeens?
I think 13 is too young to start bodybuilding. I’d rather see your cousin do team sports.
Hey, I am very interested in yoga! By any chance could you make a video on that!?
Thanks!

Not my area of expertise. I’m going to start yoga, give me about 20 years to get some experience under my belt.
Ok, but in 20 yrs. I ain’t gonna be on youtube anymore
Lol.

on your website you say not to go all the way to the ground when doing push ups because your shoulders are behind the plane of your body and is an injury risk but you do go all the way down in this video? whats that about?
hey scooby1961..u have some great work out tips..and i can use them efficiently since i work out at home only.. i was wondering if u have any tips for tricepts workouts..thanks..
Uh oh, I’m SO busted. This is exactly why its good to video yourself doing an exercise to catch problems with your form. It is best for your shoulders if you stop when your elbows are at about a 90 degree angle, which is what I thought I was doing but the video tells a different story.
My favorite exercise is the “skull crusher” otherwise known as the “french press” (dont ask me why). Its listed on my list of videos as:

Tnx, Thijs
If your goal is to go more pushups, I can think of lots of ways to train for that. Start by using backpack pushups to build up strength (see chest workout on my website). You can also try clapping pushups, one-handed pushups, and ultra-slow pushups. All these should help you increase the number of pushups you can do.
