One Arm Push Up - Progressions Strategy (Tutorial #1) - YouTube

Published on 30 Jan 2013

Here are some tips that should help

-If you are having trouble moving from regular push ups to diamonds, just start moving your hands a little closer each workout until you can do them.

-For any type of uneven push ups where one hand is on the ground and the other is on another object, make sure you focus on the arm that is touching the ground.

-When you get up to the quarter and half one arm push ups, make sure you do some of the earlier progressions (like diamond pushups) after you do these. This will help you build strength for the lower half of the movement as well as the upper half. Another thing that will help with the one arm variations is turning your hand at about a 45 degree angle. You don't want your hand to be pointed straight ahead because you will lose balance. You also dont want to turn your hand completely sideways because this will be really bad for your shoulder muscles.

-You will get stuck on some excersises but keep pushing through it. You will eventually get through it if you really want too!

-If you are stuck on an excersise for a while start doing the excersise slower and this will help you build strength.

Guy has a fantastic build, obviously, but it seems to me that he could execute this exercise more profitably and with much better form if he used slightly lighter dumbbells. As it is he has to start by kind of swinging them backward -- not a straight row.

The one-arm pushup is perhaps the greatest bodyweight chest builder of all time.

This challenging move requires tremendous amounts of upper body strength, abdominal strength and coordination. And it taxes your upper body to the max.

I believe that everyone — men, women and children — should work up to performing this awesome bodyweight exercise!


In this short article, I will provide you with a step-by-step blueprint — complete with video demonstrations of each exercise — that will take you from struggling with simple kneeling and basic pushups to performing your very first one-arm pushup.

How to Do More Pushups

Since I have worked with my fair share of military and armed forces members I am often asked about how to do more pushups. It’s something that I have trained numerous guys to do and something that I can definitely help you with.

The first thing I should point out is that in my gym, pushups must be done with absolute pristine, picture perfect technique or they do not count. That means the abs are braced tightly like you are about to be punched, the back is flat, the hips are in line (no sagging or A-framing), the glutes are squeezed tight, the hands are at your side and the elbows are tucked in at 45 degrees, not flaring out at 90 degrees. Your chest and your hips lower and touch the ground at the same rate. The reverse motion must happen on the way up as well. If you can not do this, the reps do not count.

Believe it or not, most average guys do not posses the upper body or core strength to do a perfect set of just ten pushups. When done properly they are a lot harder to do than most people think. They are also one of the absolute best muscle building exercises around and should be part of every guys mass gaining workout program. Not many other upper body pushing exercises recruit as many muscle groups as the pushup does and thus do not provide as much bang for your buck. With that out of the way lets move on to the question of how to do more pushups.

What I usually recommend is that beginners do pushups as frequently as six days per week. This will work for quite some time (years even) and you will improve your reps. Eventually, however, you will burn out and need to do something different. When you reach a more advanced stage I recommend that you cut your pushups down to two or three times per week. You will alternate between heavy and light days. One day you will go heavy and add resistance to your pushups, via plates on your back, a resistance band or weighted vest, and do an average of 5-8 reps. The other day, which will come 72 hours later will be a rep max day where you will simply do as many reps with bodyweight as possible.

For the heavy day, 2-4 sets will be more than enough and on the rep day you probably won’t need more than two all out sets. If you are really advanced you could cycle three different pushup days wherein you go heavy, light and explosive on day three. For the explosive day you will want to do plyo pushups, depth pushups, clap pushups or medicine ball throws. The reps should be kept at 3-5 on this day for a total of 5-8 sets.

One mistake most people make when trying to improve their pushups is that they do the exact same type of pushups every single time. You need to add some variety to your pushups and incorporate Hindu pushups, dive bomber pushups, Spider Man pushups, medicine ball pushups, clap pushups, elevated pushups, stability ball pushups, TRX pushups, etc. Don’t get stuck doing only the most basic form of pushups or you will burn out sooner than later and be more likely to develop over use injuries.

Hopefully you now have some new ideas on how to do more pushups and will be dominating whatever test you are training for real soon.
