Perfect Push-up PushUp Push-ups PushUps Home Chest Exercise

The perfect push-up is a piece of equipment which any gym could have and a piece of equipment which any gym could live without.
It is definitely easier on the wrists than push-ups on the floor but it really does little to superiorly work your chest during push-ups.
Remember to keep your core tight and don’t let your hips sag towards the floor.
The correct way to perform is to externally rotate your palms as you lower your chest towards the floor.
To get the full benefit out of push-ups perform through full range of motion without snapping your elbows at the top.

Are push-ups a good workout for building a chest?
Friday, January 22nd, 2010Are push-ups a good workout for building a chest? I’ve been doing a pushup workout for several months and I’m getting very little results. I don’t have any proper weight lifting equipments besides ONE dumbell and a pullup bar. I was wondering what would be the best chest workout that i can achieve?
My man you need to work out more than just your chest. Push ups are great for chest but you need to work on more things. Like the lady said get a gym membership and hit the gym. If you cant afford one here is what you do.
Workout 6 days a week. Go out and get about 3 different dumbell weights 2 each. Sit down on a hard surface chair not on a couch. Hold the dumbells out in front of you and and move your arms back until they are straight across you body. Do 3 sets of 6-8 reps to start. Than lay down on a bench and do presses. Than put the dumbells together and do another 3 sets of 6-8 reps. Also maybe try some supplements. I use NO-Xplode and Cell-mass. NO-Xplode an hour and a half before your workout and Cellmass right after your workout. I also use Myoplex shakes and bars. I like the Bars better bc its like your eating something and its keeping your energy up. Do some cardio aswell. Run ride or whatever. You need to keep your weight in check. Your chest will get bigger. It takes time bc the middle of your body is what really holds alot of your weight. I suggest going to a gym though bc you will be able to do alot more workouts. The more workouts you do the better. Shoulders work parts of your chest so does triceps. So does back. You will be amazing on how many different excerises hit different parts of your body. If you do the same stuff over and over your body will just adapt to it and it wont do anything for you.
Sorry so long hope this helps.
What should be done for a chest workout?
Wednesday, January 20th, 2010I want to do workouts that will build my chest/pectoral muscles. If i only want to workout my chest, do i workout for a long time like for 30 minuites or do i do a specific amount of it? I do about 20 push ups every night (just to get used to it) what else should i do and how much of it? thanks
i would suggest doing
bench press 3 sets of 8-10
chest flys 3 sets of 8-10
incline bench press with dumbells 3 sets of 8-10
decline bench press 3 sets of 8-10
But if you can’t get to a gym, and still wanna workout your chest.
Do pushups until you literally fail. Then stop for about 1 minute then do it again until failure. Do this 3 times.
goodluck
Push Ups – Any Time Anywhere Chest Exercise – Pecs workout
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010
http://AskTheTrainer.com
Push ups are the classic resistance training exercise with your own body weight. You know that.
The biggest mistake people make while performing pushups is to not start with their chest on the floor.
If you start with your chest on the floor you will develop the proper range of motion.
If you don’t lower yourself all the way to the floor at first, it will be very difficult for your to develop functional strength.
Keys:
1. Keep spine in neutral alignment, this includes your head.
2. Keep Core Tight, same as spine in neutral alignment but focus on drawing in your belly button.
3. Lower your chest all the way to the floor.
4. Keep your shoulder blades retracted.
5. Do not lock out and snap your arms at the top.
If your goal is to build your chest, you can do many more effective exercises for the pecs.
If your goal is to build functional strength, you must master the push-up through full range of motion before you can expect to reach your full potential.
Always perform weight training exercises within your envelope of function.
If it hurts, Don’t Do it.
If you have protracted shoulder girdle, push-ups are not a good exercise to do, especially if you do them wrong.

Any ideas for inner chest workout?
Thursday, October 22nd, 2009I seem to be doing workouts that work the outer portion of my chest (near the armpits) but was curious if there is a specific exercise that would work out the inner portion of my chest (near the sternum). Thanks!
I do two exercises (both with my back on an exercise ball)…standard shoulder wide bench press with free weights and then flies (palms facing each other) throughout the entire fly exercise? good? bad? could be doing better?
bench press and close grip bench. when you are doing bench press the wider you have your hands apart the further to the outside of your chest you are working. move your hands in. if you do close grip with your hands about 2inches apart that will work your triceps, but it will also work the very inside middle of your chest.
