Push up's - question

[MonStar1023]

Something that I didnt include was that it seems beneficial for a way to intensify your chest workout that I read about is to try supersetting cable crossovers with wide-grip pushups or supersetting dumbbell flyes with wide-grip pushups. Seems to really torch the chest all the way.

You can also try a very intense triset of flat dumbbell flyes, cable crossovers, followed by wide-grip front pushups with no rest in between the exercises. Great BURN in pecs.

If you are doing push-ups, you might as well work more than one body part. I usually do knuckle push-ups on a hardwood floor to callous the knuckes (for martial arts), or finger pushups to strengthen grip.

i used to superset my sets of bench or db press with a set of knuckle pushups (as many as i could)... feet on the bench (knuckle ones cause they're easier on my bad wrists...)

i stopped doing that awhile a go, have to bring it back to my routine, i felt i really blasted my chest that way...

After a taxing chest/tricep workout, I use push ups as a finisher. Try this: have your training partner place a 45 lb plate on your back once you are in position. If you can bang out two sets of 25, your triceps will be totally trashed.
