TRUST ME ON THIS I DO 300 TO 400 A DAY. USING THIS TECHNIQUE MY PEC'S AND THE REST OF MY CHEST MUSCLE GOT MUCH MORE SQUARE/ I ALSO DUE ALOT OF PULLOVERS TO WORK THE THICKNESS ANGLE! I KNOW I STRAYED A BIT BUT I JUST WANTED TO SHARE A DIFFERENT VIEW ON THE SUBJECT MATTER.

Bassmonger Resident 198 posts	Monday 26th April 2004 at 08:30 The thing about push-ups is...I don't care. Obviously I do a few, and I don't doubt they're good for strength and everything, but I'd rather roll for a bit and gain strength and stamina through that sort of training than be able to brag that I can do 412 press ups in one go. It's like the people who can do 100s of kick-ups but are still no good in a real game of football. Maybe. "I like my jiu-jitsu the same way as I like pubic hair on a lady" DEFEATED IN AL

Press ups / push ups.....lighter guys will usually do most....3 factors come into play....

1) greater the body mass, more effort needed to raise it from the ground.

2) will power to pass through 'the wall' as endurance runners would call it.

3) general fitness level (ability of body / blood circilatory system to absorb oxygen / burn food / remove waste)

Without no 3 no point even trying, 1 is straight forward advantage or disadvantage 2 is what makes the difference between to very similarly matched guys on 1 & 3 and you've either got this or you aint.
