pushups daily

[Elite_Fry]

would doing pushups (200-300)have any bad effect on my training?

daily? probably. it will definitely effect your "push" workouts. tris, delts and chest will be constantly bombarded with 2-300 pushups daily, which can affect recovery time. like anything your body will get used to it and eventually it can be "just the daily routine" but i wouldnt recommend it, at least not daily.

If you don't want to grow, you'll be fine

it will probably develope some strength benefits in the beginning but in the long term you would be compromising size by overtraining....

cos pushups was all i used to do when i was younger... and becos of em my arms were so much bigger than everyone i knew

helps with endurance but if your goal is size and strength then no

Other than for sporting or military reasons, why pushup when you can bench press?

I use to do them all the time when I was younger. I couldn't tell that they hurt me any. I enjoyed doing them.

try this for push ups

instead of normal pushups buy a swiss ball and do it on that. it is so much better well manly for sports but its been giving me alot of def to. and now i just started putting weight on my back. this is how i do it. i put my feet on a chair then my hands on the ball with my fingers pointing out so my wrists dont gt hurt.
