This makes absolutely zero sense. The insertion of the Pec is on intertubercular Solcus which is lateral on humerus. Any external rotation to make any difference Is NOT going to decrease chance of impingement, it's going to INCREASE it!

[@ErvannDi]

@@elredeano ​ ​ it's been almost a month and I can honestly say that the first week was the toughest, the pain was instense and It made me want to give up on the third day. The one thing I realized about working out is that you also need to work out your mentality, your fortitude. Without it, you won't have the will to keep going. What made me keep going is how I kept repeating to myself is "that It's for the best, and I need to be better. Just keep going, one step at a time."

[@boleperishon5272]

It does activate the upper pecs slightly, but the only thing it really does is force you to do a full movement - hip to shoulder level with elbows tucked in. Push up bars parallel to your body and paying attention to technique will do the same and not hurt your wrists.

[@kamenriderovant9676]

Normal grip push-ups: Standard Push-up Wide/Wide grip push-up Diamond push-up 1-handed push-up Abnormal Push-ups: Clapping push-up Reverse push-up 8-count body builders/Burpees (new) Reverse grip push-up The reverse grip is bad on the wrists since they are taking most of the force Vs the others in which the force is disturbed across the frame(why you may shake like a vibrator). Therefore deemed unbalanced to me.

[@sogaria3561]

Properly placed and warmed up wrists shouldnt be hurt by pseudo planche push ups. It still puts more pressure on them, but its a good way to progress to further and more difficult exercises.

[@joshbirdsall947]

It does put more pressure on your elbows, so if you tend to have elbow pain be careful. Otherwise great for upper peace feels great with dumbbell incline press too

[@TheStrongestPoolBoy]

True. Super wide grip pull ups also put more stress on your shoulders but I make them 90% of my pull up training. At first I had to spend a few weeks easing into it and now my shoulders are bullet proof. I suspect same can be done with these.

@@Rohan_-- Maybe true. Find a hand/wrist position that doesn't hurt, because it's the lever relationship between the mass of your body and where you're pushing from that is important, not necessarily how your hands are positioned.

Besides, just seems like an authentic guy trying to help others through education and sharing his passion.

[@jbach1738]

Wow! Thank you! I love variations of push-ups in my regular workout. I'm a truck driver, so I spend 11 hours a day sitting on my ass, and have precious little time for working out. I also have little ability to carry a lot of workout equipment on my truck. I just have some bands and a couple dumbells that I take with me on my tours. I love calisthenics workouts when on the road since I can do it anywhere at any time. I will definitely start employing this variation into my workouts on the road. I want to feel that upper pec burn! Pro tip for those who are also lacking in time and equipment for workouts. A few minutes of yoga and/or ballet (gasp) videos will help immensely with flexibility and control. So many people forget that strength and flexibility in your feet is essential for everyday movement. Ballet may look a bit froofy, but man it sure gets those feet, ankles, and lower legs doing their best work for a base of support. If you start doing a few ballet workouts each week you will start to see those calf muscles really pop, and your feet gain soooo much strength. I want to see some calisthenics bros showing off a buff calf in a beautiful tendu. No, I'm not a ballet dancer. I just started it for the amazing workout.
