    I love it!!!! I feel encouraged, thanks for taking the time to post! I've never seen anyone else do them with their feet up... I'll have to try the little jump at the end. No lie and no cheating, I'm a chic and I did 400 on my knuckles w/ my feet up on a folding chair a few days ago, nose/chin to the ground (but leisurely, over the span of 8 hours) just to see what I could handle. You're awesome, keep up the pump and keep pushing!! 🤩 Keep making videos, they're great!

      Hey there! Thank you very much for the support. I'm glad you found the video helpful. The decline variation definitely takes things to the next level and produces an abundance of gains. Be careful with the plyo variation. It HURTS at first but over time, the knuckles get tougher and can handle it. Start with low reps (sets of 3-5 reps) on carpet and then once you can knock out 3 sets of 10 on carpet..take it to the hard floor. Go back to low reps and build back up. Every 4-6 weeks (depending on how your knuckles feel)take a full week off of doing knuckle pushups to let them get a full recovery. You will notice a huge difference when you return back to them a week later. Just. Another little tip to help you out. Good luck on your fitness journey and if you ever have any questions don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks again for the support and stay STRONG.

    my middle and pinky knuckles are sort of bruised after doing 100 push up in that 3rd form...it doesnt hurt normally, but if i push on it, it felt like how it usually feels when you touched bruised skin..it's not really a big deal but it's kinda ugly to look at..the skin is darkened with some red on it after doing it every next days as i leave one day for rest and recover...i dont see dark spots on your knuckles, how you do that without making the knuckles look ugly with those dark spots?

      @@nickraph67 What's up brotha! First off... THANK YOU for watching! Second.. Let's break down these bruised knuckles of yours. The reason why my knuckles do not appear darkened, purple, red or raw is because I have been doing knuckle Pushups for the past 21 years. When I first started, they did get bruised. They did get purple and swollen. This is a sign that you are moving too fast and need to back off on the intensity. Take a full week off and do NOT do ANY knuckle conditioning work. Do not do knuckle pushups and do not hit the bag or spar. They need time to rest and rebuild. You will notice during the week off that they begin to feel better, get harder and become STRONGER. When you return to knuckle pushups, start back on the carpet (not tile or concrete) and build back slowly. Don't focus too much on the smaller knuckle pushups at first. Focus on building up the big knuckles And also really focus on the neutral position where the weight is divided up more evenly between all knuckles. Try filling a bowl with ice water and keeping your hands in there for as long as you can tolerate it (no need to exceed 2-3 minutes). I hope this helps bro. Honestly... Sometimes this happens and as long as you listen to your body and rest up you will come back from the week off with stronger harder knuckles. If you have ANY more questions just let me know, and I will make sure to help you out. Thanks for reaching out bro it will be ok I promise. Stay STRONG BROTHA 💪✌️

      @@backtobasics8046 i see..thanks for answering....so it's not that big of a deal i guess, it just needs some rest...tbf it's not really that painful, it just looks kinda bad..those dark spots is only on those two knuckles on both sides...so it sticks out like sore thumb..my pain tolerance have gone up so much after i started working out regularly...at first my body would sore for a whole week after a workout session...now i almost dont feel any pain or soreness in my muscles anymore just a few minutes after i'm done with my workout...i was afraid that bruised knuckle is something bad cuz the pain dont completely go away like the others.... i can keep going despite how it's blue and painful when pressed tho....the pain is bearable...so it really got injured then... i'll just let it heals for now i guess

      @@pebblez_ Hey there! Thanks for watching. I would suggest wanting until your injury has healed before doing knuckle pushups. If you insist, wear gloves or use heavy padding for now until the skin has healed. Once healed, GO HARD! I hope that helps. Be SAFE and stay STRONG 💪👊✌️

    Do they help build a bigger forearm?

    • @backtobasics8046

      @@nandakumar8936 Hey there!! Thank you so much for watching! The knuckle pushups will NOT build a lot of hypertrophy (size) to the overall forearm. It will however develop EXCELLENT wrist STABILITY and will build bone density in the knuckles. It will build your pain tolerance (especially when done on concrete or asphalt) and will help you to avoid injury during punching skulls. To an untrained individual, they will definitely notice NEW definition and some size gains (in particular around the base of the wrist). For forearm size, you need to incorporate HANGING (BOTH single arm and double arm hangs) do them weighted and unweighted. Short holds and long holds. Hang off towels, ropes and chains, work your pinch grip, work the wrist roller, do reverse curls with fat grips, do Zottman curls with fat grips, do heavy suitcase/farmer carries with fat grips, Crumple newspaper, do wrist curls (all variations including the forgotten plate wrist curl), do rope climbs, stone lifting, sledge hammer work....I can go on for days...I have MULTIPLE videos on the topic of forearm size and strength...check out my page and hit me up if you have any specific questions. Thanks again!!!!
