The Perfect Push-Up To BUILD MUSCLE (ALWAYS DO THIS)
video description
Forget about pumping out lighting fast reps because that is not how to gain with pushups and never has been. Whoever taught you that is a pussy and doesn't know what real pain is. Time under tension is the true key to gains. Go look at the research or just try my challenge and feel it yourself. I dare you to try just 10 push-ups with a 10 count down and a 10 count up for 10 reps with a plate on your back.
Slow and low with proper form. Remember first 3-5 are going to seem easy compared to the rest. Try it and then you can say you did some real push-ups. After you reach failure, drop the plate and continue.
When you learn these, push-ups go from the exercise you do when you don't have a gym around, to the exercise you do once a month -maybe- to completely destroy your chest.
If you can't use plates and you can't do 10 up, 10 down. Try 5 seconds. It will still put you in a world of hurt

Started 3 sets of 10 body weight squats and 10 slow, good form pushups first thing every morning this Summer at age 59. Run a quick mile if I have time and it-s a great short pump and warmup for the day. Just passed Day 60 and have added 1 rep per week, then per day and now at 4 sets of 10 and climbing. First set is hard to start at 4am but the routine is not so hard I need a day off. Don-t do CrossFit but I can be kind of an asshole. Try it, Beginners. The pushups, not the a-hole part.

Thanks dude, just came across your video today, you have given a couple wonderful tips and tricks to help correct my push-ups, am eager to start trying them. I have been busting my ass off pushing for higher reps when really I need to focus a lot more than I realize on my form and engaging those muscles better. Goes to show that even if you do only a few less than you normally do, if you work those muscles properly and slow down the work out you can get better results.

buhahaha, the form of a push-up is what got your pecks? hahaha. Every video you make should start with a disclaimer that unless your viewers take what you take or they are some sort of a genetic freaks, they should not expect results that come anywhere near close to yours. Stop with this -oh see, you weren't doing it right, your head had to be tilted 1. 22degress left, that will get you the gains I've got- COMPLETE BS!

FUUUuuuuck. Okay I started off with 50 pushups a day after a month bumped it to 100, up to 300 a day.
Looking at placement of my arms, I've been doing them wrong. The Reason why I started was for pain reduction of lower back & leg aches & pain while walking.
I'm going back to basics. Thanks for the demonstration video. Can't do floor or laying on floor. Will have to add planking with 2 sets of slower pushups.

Chest is the hardest for me to get a connection with. I been working out for about 2 years now I'm just now starting to learn where my body is getting a good connection with the chest. Front delts took over everytime and it was soooo frustrating. This should help me out even more thanks!

After prioritizing axial push/pull movements and only adding horizontal push movements as high rep additives, my chest and shoulders have never looked or felt better. The upper pecs are filling up and aesthetically more satisfied.
