    Ten years ago one of my TKD students (12 yo) was coming up to her BB grading she had to do 50 knuckles push ups. Her max at the time was 30 so I set her a task to do 15 KPU five times a day (=75) seven days a week and every week increase that by 5 per set KPU! By the time her grading came up Three months out she was pumping out seven hundred min. KPU a week = 100 knuckle pushups a day. On her grading day she produced 100 knuckle push ups without a break! That was at the end of her grading. Outstanding. You’re the first trainer I have ever heard say this in thirty-five years of my teaching. Nice.

      ​@@saarza9991 you can do some easier variations like for example, you do your max of knee push ups till failure and then proceed to do even an easier variation which is wall push ups till failure (this is a single set). rest for 30-60 seconds and repeat. Try to do at least 5 sets of these everyday and don't forget to have rest days (and stay active in these days dont just sit down and watch tv) just a simple walk will do. As you get used to it increase the reps and do the same with harder variations.. there you go.

    A month and a half ago before I got sick I randomly was like I’m going to increase my push-ups and started doing 400 pushups a day and after a few days of doing it you really get numbed out I didn’t feel much after doing it for a week or two but then my eye got super fucked up so I had to stop but now that I’m better I’m going to start again, I’m 19 6’0, 140lbs

    Just asking because if you want more strength wouldn’t it be better to do the PPL split
