Single arm push ups can create a lot of torque that twists your body around. While a wide stance can help stabilize your body, it doesn't eliminate the torque. These three tips will reduce the twisting body torque helping to relieve stress on your spine, shoulders, and core.

For me, one arm push ups with arms away from the centerline are the best core exercise there is. I do them with a fair amount of twist and I was actually able to eliminate all direct core work from my program, but still made progress in all core exercises when I tested them. :-)
Great material, always dialed in perfectly, simple and to the point.
Thank you one more time for all your work and knowledge share Matt !
It's so great that you shared the RDP with us :)
Thanks man, can't wait to try thin out
golden tips my friends
Torque in a one arm push-up is how I put my back right when I throw it out!
thanks man! what I needed
I like! Keep it up!
lol its what i need at my level, y are read my mind, thx
Great tips just in time. I'm getting my left shoulder labrum repaired next friday (the right was repaired over 3 months ago). I plan on using your tips for one-arm pushups except on an incline and one arm rows as my main upper body exercises on my right side. I want to get a really cool look with only half of my upper body well developed while my left side disappears!! Do you think this is a good idea? I have heard that training one side of the body can translate to quick gains to the other side when balanced training can be resumed. No joke here.
I think that's a very good plan. I do believe there is some carry over from one side to the other. How much is up to debate, but it's better than nothing.
Hey Matt. Do you think that it's wrong that im doing straight bar dips (working my transition and the upper part muscle up) 3 sets each set effort and full concentration of my muscle tension. And then i do 3 drop sets of push ups. And then i have hanging leg raise drop set 3 times. My workout lasts for about half an hour. And i train everyday. The nest day i have lunges and bridges and calves. And then i have pullups and handstands.
Not at all, the straight bar dip is a great exercise, especially for training how to keep the back tight while pulling your elbows inward.
I like your videos, but do you think you could change the pics of your thumbnails? After a time it really looks weird. But nice videos, and keep what you are doing
what's wrong with the thumnail? jacked dude with shiny head doing archer pushups + psychedelic background. what's not to like? xD
Pressing hand beneath pressing pec. That's it. That's the cheat code. Gonna take more strength though.
So true, but it's also so strong and stable once you develop that strength
Hello do you have any tips or exercises for shoulder mobility ? I struggle to feel my lats during close grip pull ups . Thank you
arm and shoulder circles are my go-to for shoulder mobility. I do them in a controlled manner while emphasizing tension in the whole arm, shoulder, and back.
Try engaging the muscles just behind your shoulders when doing pull ups, that may help you bring more tension into your lats.
Thank you very much for all your tips
Hey Matt, I recently progressed to One Arm Push ups, I have an idea on everything but my weaker side is my right, which I get shoulder pain, so I’m a little unsure of my technique. Can you give me a rundown on how to do it? I use my lower traps for shoulder stability and everything seems fine but I kinda still get joint pain. Thanks!
should I bring my shoulder down and back on my working arm or both sides? kind of confused me a little, seems like in the video you want them both back and down.
should i also be using my lats during my one arm push ups?
yes, your lats and all of the muscles in your back play a big role in keeping your shoulders stable and safe. Try regressing your resistance just a bit and see if you can get more stability into your shoulders with more lat engagement.
Ok I understand. As for my first question, I should have both shoulders down and back? Similar to a regular push up? Not just the working side?
Silly question, but should I engage my entire lower trap to bring both shoulders down and back or just the side of my working arm? Maybe thats not how it works haha.
My works too. Used woodprix handbooks and build it with no problems.
you look like murr from impractical jokers but 10 times stronger
I did 50 pushups on ONE hand. Watch it. your speaking facts
