I can't even do one pushup?!


Question: I can't even do one pushup?
What can I do that will increase my strength? I'm not even going for a bunch of pushups. My goal is 12 by the end of march. That's not a stretch of a goal! What do i need to strengthen to be able to do a pushup? I am a weak weak little girl, lol. Haha i've been working out at a gym, i'd really like to get stronger. This is a really big goal for me. Any advice would be appreciated! Ten points! Thanks!

Answers:

Use the modified pushup position.

If that still doesn't work, just use that, except start by laying on the ground. When you're laying flat on the ground, try to push yourself up to the modified push up position. Eventually, you'll be able to get there. It may take a week or so, but you'll get there. Once you get there, you'll be able to get to 12 very quickly.

The best way to get better at pushups, is to do more pushups.

Haha yea I been trying to build my strength also. What you can start out with are girl push-ups, which is just putting your hands on the floor, hands are about 1 1/2 feet apart, with your knees on the ground and feet crossed in the air. Then when you feel comfortable doing those a lot then go to the push ups. :)

Experience :)



Work on your center of balance.
