      @ScottHermanFitness  7 лет назад +130

      yeah... there is a way to move faster.... but aint nobody making gains with LIGHTSPEED push-ups :-D

    • @robertofreestylefitness2724
      @robertofreestylefitness2724 7 лет назад +52

      "Lightspeed" pushups can be great for strength if done correctly (full ROM and good technique). It is called "BILBO SET" (here in Spain "serie bilbo"), and you do the fisrt set at maximum speed to technical failure. The goal is to apply the maximum force in the less time possible, and over time you can do more reps in less time, meaning you gained maximum strength. This "Bilbo set" is only for the first set, the rest of the training is a regular one. This is the method of the best bench press powerlifter of Spain, Jesus Varela. In my opinion and experience, it is a great way to get stronger with bodyweight training like push ups or dips. Keep the good work!

    • @Soccercrazyigboman
      @Soccercrazyigboman 7 лет назад +7

      ScottHermanFitness is it okay to do push-ups every day including doing your normal chest day plan? or would that hurt your recovery and gains

    • @allthesesnitches4465
      @allthesesnitches4465 7 лет назад +1

      Soccercrazyigboman
      I'm nit him but I'll still answer you.
      As your goal propably is to build muscle you need to make the push ups really hard. You should not be able to do more than 12 proper form reps. If you can do more you don' t stimulate your muscles enaugh to let them grow. So in this case use a backpack and fill it with some weights.
      As you break down your muscles during training you need to give them 2-3 days to recover. If you don't do this you overtrain.
      I think Jeff Cavaliere might help you out on this as he has a wide range on fitness videos including themes such as overtraining, proper sports nutrition and so on.

    • @__Jesus_is_God__
      @__Jesus_is_God__ 7 лет назад +2

      Soccercrazyigboman if your really putting in work destroying them muscle fibers, you should allow 48 hours to recover.

    I never used to be able to do pushups because of my weight but finally after about a year and a half of working my ass off (somewhat literally!) I can finally do them! I remember the day I did my FIRST pushup, I was so stoked! Now on my workout days I do around 50-75! Crazy what nearly 200 pounds of weight loss can do for a guy lol

    • @nickstratton7256
      @nickstratton7256 7 лет назад +5

      I stopped eating junk food (I was eating ice cream every day) I started lifting heavy weights and I learned what macros/micros are and just nutrition in general. I also like HIIT cardio because it burns a lot of calories and lets me challenge myself! Reading "Bigger Leaner Stronger" by Mike Mathews really helped me more than I can say. Thats actually how I learned about Scott Herman! Mike Mathews has links on how to do the exercises he mentions in his workout plan and they all lead you to scott herman's youtube channel since he's demo'd pretty much every legit lift there is lol

      @haidermortadha8412 7 лет назад +43

      Frederic Parent ignore those people saying he skips leg day, either they're joking or they are retarded. Some people simply cannot get big calves, genetics play a significant role. Besides, calves won't usually grow a lot, look at Usain bolt for eg. Fast af, he trains his legs all the time but they aren't jacked, they are barely any bigger than some people like Scott who supposedly have 'stick legs'

    • @mmmbbq30
      @mmmbbq30 7 лет назад +12

      work your calves differently, harder and like any others muscles they will grow even if you have bad genetic... you need to work more I was a sticky legs guy, i know what I'm talking about !!!

    • @SniperKing261
      @SniperKing261 7 лет назад +12

      His legs are fine. Yes you can still build your calves even with bad genetics, but obviously your arms are most likely going to be bigger than your calves because you use your arms in literally almost any upper body workout.

  • @compassandradio6261
    @compassandradio6261 2 года назад

    They used to gig us in basic for not keeping our faces up. If we had our head down (bobbing up and down) our reps didn't count. It's still a pet peeve with me to this day. 82 push-ups in 2 min. was hard enough without them repeating the same number till you either got your head up or you got your back straight.
    They also went back and forth about either having our elbows break a °90 or having a guy hold his fist under our chest (we didn't go all the way to the ground). The old school guys insisted the fist standard was the right standard, but breaking a °90 was the same for everyone regardless of their arm length.
    I'm in my 40's now and I'm lucky to crank out 30, but my chin is up and my back is straight. Great video! I think you've got a new subscriber. 👍

      @onpsxmember 5 лет назад +2

      Set up your phone or a camera and watch your form. Print out a calender page and do your daily routine and check off the days and see your progress.
      If you're really heavy, go learn proper swimming form and do that for cardio. Great workout, easy on the joints. Go always with where you feel it if it's how it should be. Keep going and cook your own healthy meals.

      Keep on truckin! One advantage you have is imcredible progress possible. For example, when you can do four, you are 33% improved!! Also, that improvement will spiral into other improvements, such as inclemently improving your food quality. I’m getting back into fitness myself... having to remind myself it’s a daily thing. Not yesterday though! Yesterday was eat a whole row of cookies. Then a cupcake. But I did 7000 steps.

      @stormytrails 7 лет назад +11

      Do not go beyond 90 degrees with your elbows. That is why one does a 'c' position, relaxed gluts, abs tightened to get your torso and your lower back rounded upward. Any work with any joint going beyond 90 degrees will ruin that joint. This dude is not abiding by that rule. He is going to far down. Tucking elbows is tricep and allows you to get down too far. Their 'core' I sure hate that term. Shoulders down away from your ears! Close hand equals triceps, wide hands equals more pec. At least he says too fast is not good. That is very correct. Far more strength is found going slow. Fast uses momentum...breathing. When you take in a breath? And your chest moves? You are not breathing correctly. Breathing is done by diaphragm and your transverse abdominal muscles. Blowing out (through a straw helps at the beginning). Breathing in is passive to infill the lungs. His posture tells me he is doing something right. When he puts the weight on his back he is actually doing the c position. But by golly, if you do a hundred pushups you'd better do middle and lower back in equal!

      Maybe try a different possition

    • @LoChro
      @LoChro 6 лет назад +15

      If it sores, just wait until 2-5 days before doing push-ups again. Also, do a proper warm-up first for your arms

    • @superfudge2134
      @superfudge2134 6 лет назад +6

      1. Warm up your wrists first. 2. do wrist mobility exercises after your workout 3. If it just feels uncomfortable, you push through it, your wrists will adjust and strengthen with time. If you do these, your wrists should improve fast :)

    I watched a then x video, on proper pushups, and honestly this one was so much better, Chris arches his back too much saying it's the full range of motion, his spine iscurved but when do it your back is straight. That's a perfect push up.

    • @-John-Doe-
      @-John-Doe- 7 лет назад +1

      His accent is very fake. He can't even keep up the charade for the entire video. He says the same word completely differently at different points.
      I was born in Boston and lived here my entire life. Most people with a boston accent don't even "drop their R's" --- it's everything else about the accent, the things people who 'think they don't' have an accent do.
      Also, it's the rhoticity of the accent. This guy isn't even handling r's correctly. You don't just "Drop R's" -- you pronounce the R when it precedes a vowel. It's like the final consonants in French.
      It's not:
      "Pahk the cah in hahvid yahd"
      It's
      ""Pahk the cah *'rin* hahvid yahd"
      "There is" is pronounced normally
      "They're not" isn't.
      "Whether or not"
      Is "Whetha, 'ruh' not"
      It's why some people also "add R's"
      "Yeah 'rit is"
      "The idea 'ris"

  • @williamstanley4960
    @williamstanley4960 4 года назад

    As far as speed, I started a 30 push-ups a day for 30 day challenge that I am just over half-way through. One thing I heard was that less reps done slower allow for a lot of resistance time, with less joint impact. At 51 years old, I love that idea! I was going to up my reps and total count until I learned that. Now, I may stay at 30 push-ups a day, but let them take twice as long to do, and then three times as long, and on and on. What do you think of this idea?

    1:25 So freaking true kids in my sports class do fake push ups and I am the only one doing it fully which causes me to always finish last

      Its not because we dont know its because we cant do a legit one. Its better to do fakes rather than 0 so the coach/teacher doesnt call us out

      Desert Nymph Congrates, I can do about 18 in a row before having to wait 60 seconds for another set. but my stance was always super wide, turns out I was making that mistake and fixing it, it's really hard to do the pushups now. But glad I know all this because now I can work on my chest and core more while doing pushups, which in turn will help me with my other goal, doing a handstand

      FullMetal372 you need the most strength in your shoulders to do a handstand.
