How To Push Up - 4 Common Mistakes You Might Be Making 

Uhh hey tappbrothers I just wanna say thanks... Thanks to you guys I've got motivation again to help me through my life, also Your helpful excercises help me become a better person fyi. Not just physical but also mentally healthy. I hope you guys never stop helping us to stay fit. I said my piece and once again thank you

At first I seriously hated these long videos that you guys made and was always n hurry. but now watching your videos completely has benefited me a lot so thanks for posting these long videos

ive watched a few of these and this is the first that mentions engaging the shoulders first in the pushup, great info!

Thank you so much.I had no idea about the elbow being on top of wrist position and shoulder moving forward first.That hand angle made pushups so much easier for me.Earlier my hands would be wobbly and pressurized.Thankzzz again❤❤❤

Awesome. best push up "how to" i've seen. thanks bros.

I have been so frustrated into push ups that I was almost giving up, until you showed!!! Let me say that many places tell you to put your hands in a different way (middle finger to the front), but when I tried your way it make me sense when elbows were envolved: it is more easy. So let me tell you guys that from now on I will follow your way. Thanks a lot….

That eccentric part of the exercise is really key to build up strength in a safe way! Awesome video Tappbrothers!

This explains my elbow pain every time I try to get into fitness, thanks.

Thanks so much for this video! I'm trying to do push-ups regularly, but I can never do more than 10 (๑꒪▿꒪)* plus my arms always hurt after doing those minimalistic push-ups haha. Hopefully this will help me improve my technique! Next goal: 11 pushups (ᗒᗊᗕ)

I don't think I can really manage to not have my elbows spread out to the sides.

I had a few comments at school about not being able to do a pushup so this really showed them, thx

I appreciate the point of keeping the elbow in position in space as you execute the push up

Could you do progression steps towards an L sit?

thank you so so much for the video. i did push up not more then 5 everytime i workout. but after watched this video i did 10reps-3sets. i feel stronger! xoxo

Thank you SO much for this video! I've some mobility problems so my strength is waning & I was looking for a way to work up to push-ups. Your instructions are clear, concise & achievable. I've not seen a way to build up to push-ups before so it's great to see you explain it here. Also, I love your homemade gym, means a limited budget won't stop me trying to build my strength back up! Thanks guys, more power to your elbows ☺

now that looks like a part of a workout. I have done all those mistakes and was starting to wonder... thanks for the heads up!

best explanation of a pushup I've ever seen, great job! I'm pretty sure I wasn't keeping my forearm over my wrists...hopefully your tips will help with my shoulder pain I get after pushups

the most clear explanation.. thanks

Thank you very much! I'll try to do it efficiently, and I'll let you know how I get it!

My body doesn't wanna go down...

thanks a lot for this video...have been doing pushups for a while now but this video was an eye opener....Cheers

thank you so much i always have trouble with my pushups this video helped alot !

Love your content 💚 u have the gift of teaching please reply thanks

Very nice. Couldn't have asked for more better technique for an ideal push-up. Keep the good stuff coming guys. You both are awesome 😊🙏🏼👍🏼

hey tapp brothers, thanks for maling vidoes about parkour. I didn't play sports at all but when I watched one of ur vid I think parkour is the best for me, thanks for making videos about parkour😀😀😀😀😀

Thank you so much. I was keeping my arms all wrong. I can feel the difference.

Best youtube push up tutorial by far

I have been doing the wrong push ups and I was hurting myself so thanks for this video

Great info there!!! Again big thanks for showing the progressions, helps a lot for beginners, for everyone actually.

I really like the use of moving your body with Push up stands Amazing Thanks for sharing man.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

Tappbrothers, can you make a video on any advanced hamstring and glute exercises? Most of your leg training seems to be for quads i.e. squats, lunges

Really nice and well explained. I will try

Awesome now I know that I've been doing my push ups in the wrong way! I'm wondering if you guys have ever do a video about how to push up BUT with your feet over and what's the difference between those and the regular push ups that we see in this video

at last I found someone who experiences the pain in elbow I experience a lot of pain while doing pushups thanks for the vid

I can't do it! my elbows feels like cracking and I can't pull myself up my head seems exploding but I can squat. what's wrong with me?

This tutorial helped me a lot

this tutorial is really detailed! tap brothers please do one on progression dips please!

Thanks brother lots of great information. I am over weight I can do one full push up. But the kind of push up I do I just don’t go all the way down. But I am about to you your information to see if I get stronger which I think I will. Thanks again brother God bless you

wow this is amazing I never noticed how wrong I was doing this simple exercise.

Thanks brothers!

Great Description

please suggest some exercise for tennis elbow

Thank you very much brother....

Is it possible if you guys could make a video that covers the "toys" you guys use for your training so we can get idea for things we can do? Also, maybe a house tour!! That would be cool!! I don't know just a thought.

this was very helpful...thank you!

Thanks a lot! It's really clear the way you explain it!

you guys are awesome.. thanks a ton for sharing your knowledge.. :)

There are many types of push ups, so I think you should make a video on that to....and thnx for this one

Great video !

Thank u so much brother's liked and subscribed

Thank you for really great videos and advice. With push up my wrists and top of hands hurt. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated, I'm 66.

Great video thanks a lot

Hey, Tapp brothers I am big fan of you I want to know at what age did you start parkour

thank you so much!!!

Do pull-up one pls. I find it hard to work my back prob from bad form.

The first time I saw yours parkour then to I like training and doing parkour

you appear to be leaning forward when in the push up position, instead of having your hands directly under your shoulders. Can you explain how you do that without creating additional stress on your shoulders?

thanks for explaining , really appreciate it.

Thanks good tips

nice work guys

Thx so much

thank u so much, l'm gonna try it :-)

I really like your videos

Thanks for the great video. Can you please clarify if the head should be in a neutral position or if we need to look up

thanks bro!

Just so people know-- doing pushups with your elbows against your sides and hands closer together works mainly your triceps, while pushups with elbows out and hands farther apart works your chest more. This video claimed that wide pushups can be detrimental, which I'm sure is true if done incorrectly, but if you do them correctly there is nothing to worry about. Many people do pushups to get rid of chest fat, so you need to do a pushup that targets the chest in order to see proper results.

EXCELLENT!!

Very helpful... Thanks :)

muy bueno!!, gracias

thanks tappbros

You guys rock! Thanks for the vid.

What are those things called that you showed at the end? The two small things?

That's very helpful, thanks!

thank u this is very helpfull

Hey tappbrothers I have a question which do you think is easyer front flip or back flip

Plz make a free running video showing your technique

NICE VIDEO ! but I've a question. I keep my elbows not at 90° but at little more than 45°. Is it bad for shoulder even if I do push ups this way?

Hey tapp brothers I am a big fan of you

can you make one vedio on parkour step by step progression...... thanks

Leaning towards down with shoulders is not working for me, first my elbow is bending automatically when I'm doing push-ups. I think this angle depends on the individual body nature, like my hands are bit lengthy. Correct me!

Thanks a lot guys that thought me something

Yo TappBrothers! You guys should do a video on the perfect sit up/crunch/whatever the thing is called. I see so many different variations on it, and it would be very helpfull to many people, me included, to get the details down, and do it the best, and safest way :)

2 problems with this technique: (1) this is a martial art type push-up, with triceps taking most of the weight. Chest muscles are only mildly affected. For BOTH triceps and chest muscle push-up workout you NEED a wider hand stand. (2) again, this is a martial art push-up, so if you do it on your palms, you are putting too much pressure on your wrists with 90+ degree angle. This push-up type has to be done on knuckles. Still liked the video though, you guys are awesome! ;)

oh Tapps I'm tapped out I fear: After finally getting to a point where I believe I'm going to master my first "boy" push-up, alas, I assume the correct form and don't you know I can only barely with all of my might kresch out a few from the knee podition.so strenuous is this I feel as though I've climbed a mountain Against All Odds. I fall into a chair panting.How disappointing. )However I'm doing well with parkour. 3 days in I can hop up a step on both feet. SERIOUSLY: I am truly indebted to you.. starting at age 13 after no longer being able to dance due to fusions I have done every manner of exercise and yoga and have never ever gotten the instant results that I do with several of your videos which I look forward to doing every single day -- at least once and without fai.the house I live in and through which my spirit is manifest AKA my body has dealt with injuries surgeries busted up knees and autoimmune issues. NOTHING so perfectly addresses very specific musculoskeletal concerns and limitations as these videos have. I am so lucky to have you brilliant amazing people.( I include that wonderful dancer Katie).

Finally got to see this video, and Halloween is long past already, ha! Push-ups are among the best bang-for-buck bodyweight exercises "if done properly". Tapps, what are your recommendations for correct technique for doing wide push-ups?

I got a email about the isometric workout from use and I actually don't understand what the workout is so if possible can u guys explain what it is ?

Can you tell us how to increase stamina? Because when I am running, I run fast but after some time time I am exhausted just even to walk. I don't know if it is stamina or endurance.

+TappBrothers can you make a tutorial of planche?I've been waiting for that since I had my elbow lever done...

I just started learning parkour and I was looking for a few tips

My fitness teacher said that i should make elbows bend outside rather than backward ? what should i do

whenever I get in position my wrist starts to hurt, is this normal? or am I doing something wrong?

Make a video how to workout for chest.

great vid

My problem is never my arms hurting because blood always rushes to my head even when I try to hold it up and it becomes way too uncomfortable to carry on doing more, how can I avoid this better?

thank you for the video

Great!!! the very last thing is the best...:-D

wow where do you edit this "double" effect?

hey Tappbrothers, question: i have been suffering from , wrists pain, and pain on the outside lower part of the shanks (lower Limbs), there is no swelling.. just pain when i train , doctor said it's because of over doing, tried taking a long rest but the day i start again the pain comes back it's really annoying Vaults seem impossible for more than 3 or 4 each training, is there anyway to strengthen these two areas?

superb
