Want to start dabbling in advanced push ups? You may have seen people doing side-to-side push ups and wondered what they’re called. Those are known in the calisthenics community as “archer push ups” and are a fantastic upper body exercise.
The archer push up is a great push up variation that builds strength beyond the basics. It not only strengthens your upper body and prepares you for the one-armed push up, but it also solidifies your core and makes you more effective at holding total body tension for other bodyweight exercises.
In this video I explain the progressions I personally used to go from the basic push up to the archer push up. I don’t recall how long it took me to achieve archers, but I don’t recommend putting a timeframe on these things anyway. Just follow the progressions in this video and work hard at them consistently. You’ll be doing archers in no time!

Great to see Johnny Sins on RUclips again!
Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing.
Show the man some respect. This guy is someone who offers the world clean living and a healthy body and mind rather than vile smut. Keep up the good work Ryan.

Got archers in 4-5 weeks !! All credit goes to you man !!! You’re awesome !!!!
The credit also goes to you for putting in that work!👏🏽💪🏽
That rug is everything
Damian Lewd lol! it really tied the room together :)
@@MinusTheGym fuckin A dude 😎
You're so calm. It makes me feel peaceful.
Just did my first set of Archers using your progressions. So satisfying. Thanks for your excellent explanations in your progressions.
This is the second video I watched of yours and I just subscribed! You take the time to describe in detail without over doing it so we can fully understand. Most of the bigger channels just kind of rush threw it. I'm brand new to calisthenics and appreciate the little extra explanation (steps). Anyways keep it up man I'll be back for more lessons. 😀
Hello there! It's been 3 weeks since I've started doing your archer push up progression. And I'm so glad that I can do 8 reps of 3 sets archer pushups in a day now! Thanks for your help!
Started watching your videos back in 2020, did your no equipment work out for a couple months but gave up. Now in July 2023 I got back to working out, mainly calisthenics, and 4 months later I stumbled upon this video again. After trying every progression, I realized I can actually do archer push ups! This seemed unreal back in 2020, thank you so much for making these!
I think you are the only one who teach archer push up this good, other youtubers I see only teach using negative form only, which is still hard for me, but you teach us step by step from wide push, elevated platform, negative form, until success doing archer push up.
Right now I'm learning using elevated platform to train thanks to your idea, and I am getting better each day. I think I might be able to do the real archer push up one day. Thank you so much for this perfect guide
Subscribed, I've seen a couple of your other videos and they are all really well done. Can't wait to get these dialed.
Such a detailed video really loved it
What a well explained video!
Thanks. Definitely going to subscribe! :)
The progression breakdown really helped!! I can finally do an archer push up
Very clear, detail and simple guideline. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Thank you! I had no idea how to approach these. The assisted/chair version was the right step for me!
Thank you soo much!!
This was so helpful. Thank you so much for making this ! God bless ! 😀❤️
Excellent advise, thank you very much. Best regards Greg
Hi Ryan, Thanks for this awesome tut, man. It's really simple and I can't wait to be knocking out my first sets of Archers with a few typewriters thrown in...
Thank you man! This is really helpful. I initially assumed that progressions for these involved using the knees, but boy was a I wrong.
I have been pointing my fingers to the front and not the sides
Thanks a lot this helped!!!
Best Archer Push Up Video.
Thank you very much!
This is so well explained, I will try this type of push up!
It work, thanks I'm now your new subsriber.
This is what I was looking for ❤️
Great tutorial buddy, thank you
I wish I saw this before I got shoulder injury when doing this push ups. Thank you so much man, I can’t believe you have less subscribers and views, you deserve a lot more and one of the best!
Hello, I am looking into starting to see if I can introduce archer push ups, is there any advice you would give to someone starting to avoid should or any other joint injuries?
Good stuff. Gonna practice this
Thanks soo much man!!
Great tutorial. Thanks
I learned something then I subscribed, thankyou for the guide man it helps alot
Thank you so much.
Thanks!
That is so professional
thank you for sharing this.
that was super helpful!
great stuff! wife did amazin job on painting!~
mr.sins thank you the typewriters looks awesome I'm going to try them.
Excellent tutorial
thanks! difficult but very satisfying pushups once you get to them
Thank you I really needed that ve
LEGEND
I was just searching for a vid to check if my form is good and after watching this I guess it is
Great video for beginners though! :)
Wow!! I learnt the archer push up in less than a week!! Thanks a lot brother!!✌️😊
OMG! I love the name of your series: "Minus the GYM"👌
Good video, I realize now that I've been doing my archer-pushups wrong were I didn't have the elbow tucked into the ribs close enough. It's alot more challenging now and alot more rewarding.
Captain Rhodes nice! And you'll avoid potential injury to the shoulders by keeping those elbows tucked ;)
I cant believe that
i actually did all the prorogation in one day from regular push up to Archer thank you so much i would say tho my arm not near my rip cage ^^ working on it
Nice tutorial man
Great videos, man! Subscriped instantly. I like it that you are so beginners orientated and explain everything in detail. Quite refreshing compared to all these other - "watch me doing a hundred shirtless pushups"- guys. You deserve way more attention.
Thomas Rxl thanks man. I really appreciate all the kind words. It means a lot.
You and Red Delta project are great calisthenics youtubers
Thanks man
Very useful video
The Best practition archer push for beginner pure
300 to 1 on likes. You must be doing something right. Your videos have the right amount of brevity and detail. I'm gonna try progressing to archers soon and look like Legolas in no time. Thanks Mahn.
Lol best explanation one love big bradza
huh, came here looking for the progression excercises but happily surprised to find out I can actually do them already (not easy tho). Been trying for a few sessions but I just had the form very wrong. Arms spread wider and the elbow tucked in did the trick! Thanks!
Love the shoutout to the wife's craftsmanship
Your boy here weighs around 280 lbs. and got his first archer push up! :) #progress
Matthew Shurtz Congrats man! That's very impressive for a guy your size. Keep it up! 💪
Congratulations!
I really hope you can do them well and many now, after 1 year! :)
Matthew Shurtz good job bro, I’m more than a year later so hopefully you can do more!
Video-proof or it didn't happen. No j/k. Gz on your progression!
Wtf you're insane
Very useful tips. I had tried to go from regular to archer push-ups without intermediate progression, but I had to stop almost immediately because I noticed my execution was so bad that I would have risked to get injured without correcting the form first.
You rock. My goal is to be able to do one pull-up and one OPA by the end of this year 🤞 let's see what I can do!
Thx you
Such great content.. im rooting for you to blow up on here soon!!
Thank you! :)
Thank you soo much sir...im 16 and i workout daily....now i can do 15-20 archer pushups easily....just because of you and my hard work...so thank u so much
Just did my first archers, wasn't able to a few weeks ago, what I did to get stronger was banded normal pushups now i can do archers and feels amazing to be able to...
2:45 props to the ikea step stool his wife painted so beautifully that was featured in the video
Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Challenge accepted!
thanks this helped a lot! this definitely should have more views
I'm glad it helped! And thank you! I'm hoping it's just a matter of time til the views pick up.
if you keep uploading consistently I'm sure it will! The only thing I would change if I were you are the thumbnails. It's great you all have same in the same color palette, but grey isn't what catches the eye most in my opinion.
Good call. Thanks for the advice, man. I'll start adding more color

@@MinusTheGym The sky´s the limit...
i subscribed because your sub count was 99 and i felt better after seeing it at 100
wian Ha! I feel better seeing it at 100 too :) Thanks! I hope my future videos are helpful to you.
I'm sure they will, you definitely deserve more subs
Damn seeing this when channel has 315k subs :o
Daamn, as long as i saw your channel i subbed right away.. We are in the same niche, you'll be a great motivation and i think you will inspire me to make more videos like yours! Keep it up mate!
Chrisgeo Fitness Thanks man! I just checked out your channel too. Great content! Keep it up. Maybe we will collab some day :)
@@MinusTheGym Appreciate it coming from you man! I hope we do! :)
I first watched this video on 27 June, unable to do a single archer push up. Today, on 10 August, I did ten in a row -- ten on each side. This video really does the trick! Time to learn the OAP I guess!
mantap bang johnny
yo shoutout to ur wife for painting that, it looks dope
Shared this with her, she says thanks!
@@MinusTheGym Awesome, ty for the progression too, i actually manage to score one archer today ty to it.
Hey! Great video man. I have been able to do diamond push-ups with ease and I can do 20reps average, but when i try to do archer pushups I cannot even do a single rep. Any tips would be much appreciated thank you
1 year later i finally perfect the movement and i can do 6reps in the one set.
You have just got yourself a sub
Lucaman.pilot nice! thanks :)
Minus The Gym no problem. Do u think it would benefit to do one day on core exercises and the next day on pectorals and arms and change it ?
Lucaman.pilot yes, definitely! Split routines are great because you can workout frequently and still give your muscle groups plenty of rest. I typically do splits like this, but you can do whatever works for you:
Day1: push exercises
Day2: pull exercises
Day3: legs & core
Day4: push exercises
Day5: pull exercises
Day6: legs & core
Day7: rest
Your PushUp is so clean i've been trying to do this for 2 months i just cant my arm hurts like hell i dont know why i cant bent it straight like yours im trying to so pseudo but they say i need to learn this first
Hey Hashiro. Thanks for the compliments on my form :) If archers are too hard, I suggest regressing to wide push ups and elevated one-arm progressions for a while. It might seem counterintuitive but it’ll pay off. Once those regressions are very easy, the archers and typewriters will come more naturally. And if your goal is pseudo planche push ups, start working on your planche leans too if you haven’t already :)
I can do already some normal archer push ups but the thing he said about going from one side to another at the bottom is really still hard for me (Here to progress at one arm)
How wide should i be able to do widen arm Pushups before moving on to the next progression
I did 20 set of push up for progression 1, also for 2 and 3. After like three days of doing that, I did my first archer push up! Thanks bro ! :)
He looks familiar from a website I went to once
OOH so that last one is typewritter..got it - I was doing that xD
I do regular pushups
typewritter pushups
wide pushups
elevated legs normal pushups
pike pushups..
MAN, it REALLY does make working my body more fun and enjoying when there are different pushup variations, unlike just the same variation over and over again..
Please make a video on tuck planch
H Mehta Will do! It's on the list :)
Is the assisted one arm pushup easier than the archer pushup?
I did them on knees and did some negatives and after 2 week I can do 5 on both sides
Hi! Can you please upload a tutorial on pull ups ? I JUST HAVE A PULL UP BAR
Firebolt73 Have you seen my beginner routine video yet? I include a full progression for pull-ups in there. If you don't have dip bars for the bodyweight rows, try starting off with hangs from the pull-up bar (bent- and straight-arm) and then progress to pull-up negatives, and assisted pull-ups as shown in the video: ruclips.net/video/ay15dc2cvm0/видео.html
My shoulder hurts while doing this pls help
I started doing archer ring push-ups about 4 weeks ago, progressing from decline weighted push-ups. I also progressed to incline archer rows and ring-supported straight leg raises at the same time. I have been sore in my shoulders the whole time since then. It feels like DOMS in supporting muscles (shrugging up, back, or down), but I’m used to that fading in 72 hrs. I’ve read online that calisthenics can cause soreness that lasts for weeks like this, but I wanted to see if you have comments about this length of soreness.
Hi! I know your comment is 2 years old but that's why I'm replying (hopefully you'll see this!) - if you have kept up with it, how did you get on with the soreness? I'm having a similar experience since I started focusing a lot more on shoulders
And for wide pushups is it essential for the hands to face outwards?I usually face them forwards but feel a crunch in my shoulder.
The crunch actually feels worse with my hands facing outward.
I skipped one or two of the steps..... I can do the archer(not sure about proper form) but the problem I'm having is discomfort in one of my shoulders, I think it's joint not muscle?
Is it possible this is from bad form & not an underlying problem I dont know about?
Hey just wanted to say I'm at the last progression after doing this for weeks. I can do 6 - 5 - 5 - 2 (then I do 3 reps of negatives after the 2). My archer push ups are not as pretty as yours so I'm going to keep doing this until I can do 4 sets of 8. The OAP will be next.
Awesome Content👌👌
H Mehta thanks!
What if i already can do 4 of them bcz im skinny but have some muscles?
Good video.
I managed to do them, but it hurt my shoulders in a way that feels unhealthy.
I understand that this can also be a problem when doing one arm push ups.
So, sadly I will have to give up.
that may be because you are
strong enough but your joints are not prepared, dont give un man, search for solutions
Hey, this was an actual great video! The angles helped alot
One problem though, one common thing they tell you to do is keep the arm fully straight. But i noticed that if i do that, my *straight arm* feels like its about to snap, and I'm not sure is if it's because I'm:
a) Not strong enough, aka need to keep progressing
b) my posture is wrong, I am keeping my arm *too* straight [it bends slightly backwards when fully straight], and need to keep a tiny angle of bend to prevent injury
Do you have any suggestions about this?
Ruby Duby thanks! :) Don't keep the arm fully straight, especially if it feels painful. Keep an angle inward. Start off with a bigger angle and gradually decrease it, letting the arm get straighter with practice. Even my "straight" arm is slightly bent at the elbow. It might be hard to see in the video, but it's slightly bent, maybe by a few degrees. The straighter your arm is, the more demand it will put on your outer pec major, anterior deltoid and long head of the bicep. If these muscles aren't ready/strong enough, it could be painful. And if you're experiencing pain in the elbow or shoulder joints, that could be a posture issue (like rounded shoulder) or possibly inflammation (tendonitis in the elbow, for example). Either way, bending the arm and letting it gradually straighten as you build strength in the muscles and tendons will help. Just don't be in a rush. Enjoy the journey and you'll get there :)
That does add up, since there was a bit of pain in the shoulder back after I was done [guessing that's the "anterior deltoid" you talked about]
I think your your tuts are great, especially since you can back it up, so +1 sub for more of these good vids
Please upload a tutorial of Typewriter Push ups
Firebolt73 thanks! Added to the list.
@@MinusTheGym Awesome tutorial btw. Thanks!
When i tuck my elbows in for a pushup I get a pinch feeling in my right shoulder. I had a rotator cuff injury before and now it is somewhat healed. When i flare out my elbows slightly more I don't get that pinch pain. Any advice ?
Ernestas Kriauciunas Sorry to hear you had a rotator cuff injury. I recommend laying off the tucked elbows if it's causing a pinching feeling. Too much of that will aggravate the tissue and cause inflammation, making it worse. I'm not sure if your injury was a tear or postural. If it was a tear, you may need surgery (hopefully not the case!) but if it's postural, meaning muscular imbalances are causing your rotators to get pinched by the humeral head during certain movements, that can be corrected with specific exercises and stretches. Either way, I recommend seeing a physical therapist. They're qualified to diagnose and troubleshoot that.
Not sure how much you are flaring your elbows slightly. If it's just a little, you can keep pursuing the archers. But if you're needing to flare out kind of far (like more than 30 degrees from your body), I'd recommend not training the archers until you get your shoulder issue sorted out. I hope that helps.
Steve Maxwell says that some ortho doctors have suggested simply doing a routine of hanging from a pull-up bar can strengthen and even cure most shoulder problems.
