    Since i've joined the BWW tribe i've been motivating myself to train at home, following the begginer videos and pacing myself, as in, if i feel like stopping for the day, or change exercise or do whatever i feel like in the day, i just do it. And surprise surprise, what a change in my body and appearance. And i haven't joined a gym yet, i plan to soon. Pushups, pull up bar, yoga matress, some dumbells and Tom's videos on the background to follow along, i feel good (and look *shy*) good as hell

    I posted last week on nearly the same topic. Great breakdown. You spoke a lot about hand position which I didn't go into. One thing I want to add is that having your wrists directly below the shoulder in the support/plank position is necessary, when looking from the side. Avoid placing the hands Superior/ in front of the shoulder - this leads to poor positioning and increases elbow flare.
    Great stuff and keep up the outstanding videos.

    6:32 when you start with rings turned out, i noticed that they turn back in when you are going down. Is this what should be happening in a normal (without rings) push up as well? Or should you always focus on twisting your hands into the ground (so elbow pits face forward) even on the way down?

    • @kaiphan6335
      @kaiphan6335 3 года назад +1

      You only need to tuck to 45 degrees from your body. It's just a compensation for a lack of strength. Don't be ashamed to work at an incline and then go down to the floor

  • @loushka128
    @loushka128 6 лет назад

    I wish you could elaborate more on the supinated hands push-ups: safety, form, which muscles are activated, etc... They arouse my interest particulary because I have a shoulder impingment right now and I am not allowed to do chest training as in pushups. So supinated ones look like a safe alternative, if I see this correctly.

    • @memphischalmers1644
      @memphischalmers1644 3 года назад

      late reply but it's due to time under tension controlling that negative and slowing it down helps put the muscles under tension for longer. As well as help teach you to control the movement rather than just doing several quick reps of lower quality

    I was wondering if you have advice for me. I have scoliosis and badly winged scapula, so when I try push ups my shoulder is permanently stuck in a weird position. So it causes pain in my shoulder during push ups as well as a weird snapping sensation. The only thing that alleviates the pain is to flare out my elbows really wide, essentially having bad form, but even then it still hurts. I've tried doing modified push-ups or just doing other pushing exercises like bench press or tricep dips instead, but it's the same problem. Help! 😭

      I would work 1-3 submaximal sets (30-40 reps) with 90s rest between. Work to reduce down the rest periods and maintain the reps. Once you get to like 45s you can increase the number of reps per set. Repeat same process :)

      @gippo5971 6 лет назад

      Search a wrist routine (calimove has a good one) and use it every day, one time a day. Start slowly and them increase time, intensity and reps. Even if you feel light pain. It should you away while imoroving the range of motions.
      Stick to it for at least a month and you will see results.
      Until you can confortably do push ups on your palms, do them on knucles (padded surface) or with parallettes or elsewhere.
      Have patience. Wrist mobility can take a while, but it is necessary.
      Good luck

      Rotating your wrists outwards helps mitigate pain immensely. Wrist wraps may help, as well as stretching more often. They could be sprained as well and they need a break.

    • @0114855
      @0114855 6 лет назад

      A lack of shoulder mobility can also lead to wrist pain so take care to include shoulder stretches as well.
      Maybe it's best to ask a physical therapist though. And give your wrists time to recover first, then gradually build up the reps. Your tendons generally need more time than your muscles.
