I’ve been working out my entire life. I’m in my sixties now. No one has ever said to bring the elbows out to a 45 degree angle. I always had my elbows closer to 90 degrees . What a huge difference! My shoulder was broken in 4 places when a truck hit me while is was riding my bike. Bringing the elbows in has greatly reduced the pain while performing a push up. Thank you so much!
Just the opposite for me. With shoulder impingement I have to almost be at 90 deg. for more relief in the shoulder area. 72 yrs. old and do 50 every morn. on kitchen cabinet while coffee is making. Just my quirky shoulders after years of abuse from lifting and motorcycle wrecks.
Thanks for motivating me to do push-up. I hate it because little right shoulder pain. I try from the simple one. No excuse for not doing push up. Thanks, Sir
Thanks Ed, I’m 76 with a shoulder injury and meniscus tears, so I can’t do the floor push ups. To be honest I was never any good or comfortable doing floor push ups. I’m going to try the bench or wall push ups, I’m sure I can manage those. 😊

This was so good for so many people. And to remind myself that I can do things and if it hurts I should stop. I think the rule of common-sense Works wonderful thank you.
Hey Danny, great question. I would shoot for a minimum of 2 sets, pause in the down position, and be mindful of your elbows so you don't end up with sore shoulders. Good luck and here's another video you may find helpful ruclips.net/video/jqYnFKXnRgQ/видео.html Take care
Hello Donna, sorry to hear about your wrists. But maybe you can do the wall or counter version. Also, here are a couple of videos that may help your wrists ruclips.net/video/DYdvNnctfxk/видео.html ruclips.net/video/X7suUVYzAdw/видео.html Good luck!
@@FrontRowwithEd Thank you. I do them anyway even with my wrist pain but can only do 12 or so as i have osteoporosis and SI joint pain on my left side so my back hurts too.

Thank you, from Brazil!!
Thank you Laura, stay safe in Brazil!
Yes, thank you!
I have surgery on my hand and how can i do pushups please tell me sir
This is really nice
Thanks!
My question is - Will I get the same results if I use my elbows instead?
Tip: Wear gloves to prevent the edge of the railing or kitchen island from injuring the palms of the hands.
Great idea!

What does scapula in the back pocket mean?
Hey CJ, take a look at this video for an explanation ruclips.net/video/AHnX5ZHinLQ/видео.html Let me know if it makes sense after watching it.
I may have missed it, but how far back are my feet from wall push-ups and also counter pushups? Thank you
Great question. You want to stand as far back as you need to so that 8-12 repetitions are challenging for you to do. Does this make sense?
